Director Yoo In-sik explained why he is once again collaborating with Park Eun-bin on a superhero drama following 'Extraordinary Attorney Woo'.

On the morning of the 12th, a production briefing for the Netflix series 'Wonderfuls' was held at JW Marriott Dongdaemun Square in Seoul Dongdaemun-gu. Attendees included director Yoo In-sik, Park Eun-bin, Choi Tae-hoon, Im Sung-jae, Gimhae Suk, Son Hyun-joo, Jeong Yi-seo, Choi Yun-ji, and Bae Na-ra.

'Wonderfuls' is a superpower comic adventure set at the end of the 20th century in 1999, following ordinary neighborhood residents who unexpectedly gain superpowers and struggle to protect the world from villains threatening peace.

Director Yoo In-sik stated, "This work is set at the end of 1999, an era rife with apocalyptic theories. It tells the story of four people who were considered insignificant and outcasts gaining special abilities and facing a mission to save the world by fighting villains. It can be described as a comic superhero adventure drama."

Continuing, Director Yoo In-sik said, "I have always liked the superhero genre. I have memories and a romantic longing for superhero movies that kept me seated in the theater even after they ended. Since I began directing dramas, that longing has persisted, and when I read the writer's original proposal and script, my heart began to race."

Director Yoo added, "We aim to deliver a more unique and special work that evokes the excitement felt in childhood. First and foremost, this genre must be fundamentally enjoyable. When you ride an attraction at an amusement park, your heart starts pounding from the moment you fasten your seatbelt. You don't want to get up until the ride ends. This work also contains such joy and laughter. After enjoying that joy, we hope viewers will feel a spoonful of heartwarming emotion somewhere along the way."

Meanwhile, 'Wonderfuls' will be released simultaneously worldwide at 5 p.m. on the 15th.
