Synopsis
Set in the doomsday-fearing year 1999, "The WONDERfools" is a comedy action adventure that follows a group of awkward townies who unexpectedly gain superpowers and take on villains threatening the peace of Haeseong City.
Set against the backdrop of the millennium's end, the unpredictable chaos caused by these clumsy new "heroes" is set to entertain. Director Yoo In-sik ("Extraordinary Attorney Woo") teams up with debuting writer Heo Da-joong, who adapted the hit film "Extreme Job", to bring this turn-of-the-century adventure to life. Park Eun-bin ("Extraordinary Attorney Woo"), "Castaway Diva") stars as Eun Chae-ni, who is suddenly swept up in an unexpected incident and acquires powers. Joining her is Cha Eun-woo ("Wonderful World", "Island - Drama") who plays Lee Woon-jeong, a specially appointed civic servant who approaches a series of mysterious disappearance cases with deep suspicion. Rounding out the cast, Choi Dae-hoon, Im Sung-jae, Kim Hae-sook, and Son Hyun-joo elevate the fun with their distinct characters.
