Synopsis
A clash ensues when the deputy prime minister of economy stands up to the prime minister who aims to uproot the corrupt powers that be. Actor Sol Kyung-gu ("Kill Boksoon", "Yaksha: Ruthless Operations", "The Book of Fish") portrays Prime Minister Park Dong-ho, a man who makes a crucial decision to change the political landscape and bring the president colluding with the chaebols to justice. The gentle but charismatic Kim Hee-ae ("Queenmaker", "Herstory", "Moonlit Winter") portrays Jeong Soo-jin, the strong-minded deputy prime minister of economy who opposes the PM with her brilliant intellect. The clash between their respective values results in a veritable whirlwind so powerful that it leaves the viewers breathless and hooked. The show is penned by writer Park Kyeong-soo, who is revered in the political fiction genre for his "power trilogy" of "THE CHASER - Drama", "Empire of Gold", and "Punch - Drama", and directed by the illustrious Kim Yong-wan, who was awarded for his web drama "Love Cells", defying genres with his numerous popular works, including but not limited to the drama "The Cursed" and films "Champion" and "The Cursed: Dead Man's Prey". The year 2024 is a prime time for politics with the upcoming elections, and "The Whirlwind" will surely entertain the viewers with this gripping alternative to reality. (Netflix)
