The Netflix series Trunk, starring actors Seo Hyun-jin and Gong Yoo, will be released on Nov. 29.

'Trunk' is a mystery melodrama about a secret marriage service that began to be revealed by a trunk floating on a lake and the strange story of two men and women in it. Based on the novel of the same name by Kim Ryeo-ryeong, director Kim Kyu-tae, who directed 'Our Blues' and 'It's Okay, It's Love', and Park Eun-young, who wrote 'Hwarang', will work together to present a story with a different sense.

Expectations are high for the unconventional story development and intense production of 'Trunk', which will deeply explore the theme of 'Marriage' involving various emotions such as love, compassion, desire, and loneliness and portray the relationship of the characters in detail. In particular, Seo Hyun-jin and Gong Yoo's first meeting is raising the interest of drama fans.



Playing by Seo Hyun-jin, 'No In-ji' is a person who became alone because of marriage, and 'Han Jung-won' played by Gong Yoo is a man who has been obsessed with loneliness even after marriage. The key is the process of two people making up for each other's deficiencies and experiencing changes in complex emotions.

The released teaser poster suggests the complex relationship between the two protagonists through the images of the two standing on the spiral staircase in a cool atmosphere. The dry expression and precarious appearance of the chandelier looking at each other create anxiety and tension, suggesting a secret hidden between them. The poster adds the phrase 'Truth and Fake, a secret marriage in which everything is intertwined', arousing curiosity about the drama.



In the teaser trailer, the setting of 'the fixed-term couple' draws attention. Noh In-ji, who familiarly pulls the trunk and enters the house of her fifth husband Han Jung-won, starts a new marriage according to the contract. Han Jeong-won "Should I call them my wife?Without hiding any signs of discomfort, such as asking ", the two start a year-long marriage where emotions are excluded.

In the climax of the trailer, Han Jung-won's ex-wife Lee Seo-yeon (Jung Yoon-ha) raises tension by saying a meaningful word "Congratulations on your marriage, honey". Lee Seo-yeon also turned to No In-ji and said, "Please be happy. The scene where he says, "This is a punishment for Jung Won and a vacation..." suggests the complicated story between them and stimulates curiosity.



Finally, the scene where the old man looks at the sinking trunk and says "I'm disgusted with marriage" foretells their relationship to lead to a mystery beyond mere love and marriage.

Trunk will be released globally on Netflix on November 29.
