Seo Kang Joon takes on the role of Jung Hae Sung, a National Intelligence Service (NIS) agent who is tasked with a unique undercover operation—posing as a high school student to locate Emperor Gojong’s missing gold. Despite his extensive training as an elite agent, navigating high school life proves to be a whole new challenge.
Jin Ki Joo co-stars as Oh Soo Ah, a passionate temporary Korean history teacher who is working hard to secure a permanent position at the school. However, her life takes an unexpected turn when she crosses paths with Hae Sung, who enrolls as a student in her class. Their interactions begin with misunderstandings but soon evolve into a dynamic relationship as they each pursue their own goals within the school.
Recently released stills showcase the unique chemistry between the two leads, highlighting both comedic and suspenseful moments. As Hae Sung tries to blend in as a student while secretly carrying out his mission, Soo Ah remains determined to prove herself as a capable educator.
Undercover High School is set to premiere on February 21 at 9:50 p.m. KST. With its intriguing premise, stellar cast, and a blend of humor, action, and mystery, the drama is expected to captivate viewers with its fresh take on the undercover agent trope.
