Synopsis
A clandestine marriage service is uncovered when a trunk washes up on the shore of a lake, bringing to light the strange marriage between a couple in the thick of it all. The versatile Seo Hyun-jin ("Another Miss Oh", "The Temperature of Love", "Beauty Inside - Drama", "Black Dog", "Why Her?"), who is known to perfectly embody every character she plays, is set to portray In-ji, an employee of a company called NM that matches couples for short-term marriages. The prolific Gong Yoo ("The Silent Sea", Guardian: The Lonely and Great God", "SEOBOK", "The Age of Shadows", "Train to Busan"), who defies genres with his explosive range, will portray Jeong-won, a music producer that suffers from anxiety and loneliness stemming from a painful past. With only a year left on their contract, as mandated by the premium matchmaking service that promises the perfect spouse, In-ji and Jeong-won slowly adjust to one another-until a trunk that washes up on a lake shore reveals the secrets and pains they have been keeping dormant. Based on the novel of the same name by writer Kim Ryeo-ryeong, who is touted as a remarkable storyteller in the Korean literature world for her works "Punch" and "Thread of Lies", "The Trunk" is directed by director Kim Kyoo-tae ("Our Blues", "It's Okay, That's Love", "Live"), known for his sensitive and delicate direction, and written by Park Eun-yeong-I ("Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth"), bringing to viewers a tale that is as fresh and shocking as no other.
