On January 18, OSEN reported that “Elegant Friends” (literal title) was picked up by JTBC to air as an upcoming Friday-Saturday drama as the follow-up to “Itaewon Class” and “World of Married Couples” (literal title).

As a pre-produced drama that has already wrapped filming, viewers can look forward to a high-quality series this summer.

“Elegant Friends” is a mystery drama about a murder that occurs in a new town inhabited by married couples in their 40s and follows the story of a group of middle-aged men after their peaceful everyday lives are disrupted. This unique story line has already upped viewers’ excitement as it’s being likened to JTBC’s mega-popular 2018 series “SKY Castle.”

Calling it the 2nd “SKY Castle” this early may be presuming. From the plot, it seems like the similarities come from having couples in their 40s. Maybe they are also rich like those in “SKY Castle?” But let’s give this drama a chance and forgive the eager marketing writer who dubbed this as 2nd “SKY Castle.”

Earlier this month, Song Yoon Ah shared photos of the cast including Yoon Joo Sang, Kim Sung Oh, Han Da Gam, Bae Soo Bin, Lee In Hye, Kim Hye Eun, and Jung Suk Yong. She also expressed gratitude to her co-stars, who she filmed with for five months, and gave fans a glimpse of their chemistry.

“Elegant Friends” is directed by Song Hyun Wook whose past works include “Marriage, Not Dating,” “Another Oh Hae Young,” “Introverted Boss,” and “Beauty Inside.”
