Park Joo-hyun can’t trust anyone in her Perfect Family

by Jenzy

The new teaser for KBS’s murder-mystery thriller Perfect Family is out, and it’s already selling us the spooky vibes between Park Joo-hyun (The Forbidden Marriage) and her elite family.

Unlike the last teaser’s look at all our classmates, this teaser focuses on the perspective of our protagonist Choi Sun-hee (Park Joo-hyun) and her eerily idyllic adoptive family life. We open on Sun-hee’s mom Yoon Se-ah (Hierarchy), as she pours a mysterious powder in Sun-hee’s drink before sweetly delivering it to her room. It’s possible that powder might be meds related to Sun-hee’s mental health because — despite her loving parents — she can’t seem to shake a feeling of dread, warping their supportive smiles into sinister expressions in her eyes.

But it’s possible maybe Sun-hee’s on to something, because we also hear her father Kim Byung-chul (Doctor Cha) say in the voiceover, “Let’s move up our plans.” What plans is he talking about, you might ask? It may have something to do with the news broadcast of an ongoing case involving a family’s murder. Despite Sun-hee’s parent’s acting like nothing is wrong to her face, it’s looking more and more likely that Sun-hee might have been involved.

And Sun-hee’s school life is no more peaceful. While she may have the heart-eyes of her two cutie classmates Kim Young-dae (Moon in the Day) and Lee Shi-woo (Boyhood), she also has to deal with the increasingly threatening comments of her new transfer classmate Choi Ye-bin (Night Has Come), who also remembers Sun-hee from their shared orphanage days.

So between her creepy parents, school friends, and the new-yet-familiar face, who can Sun-hee really trust? Each answer only seems to lead to more questions (such as, who is Infinite’s L supposed to be playing here and why is his face all over this teaser?)

As more case facts become revealed, Sun-hee’s life is only about to get messier. We end the teaser on a shot of her, bloodied and shaken, as she tells her mom, “I killed someone.”

Based on a webtoon of the same name and helmed by Japanese director Yukisada Isao (The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese), KBS’s Perfect Family will premiere August 14 in the Wednesday-Thursday slot.

This teaser definitely amped up the mystery thriller vibe. I am all for it.
I like Kim Byung Chul, Yoon Se Ah and Park Joo Hyun. This may be the drama that can make me change my mind about Kim Young Dae.
I sure hope this is good.

"who is Infinite’s L supposed to be playing here...?"

I got it! He's the person our female lead is said to have killed? ;)

I’ve wanted Park Juhyun and Kim Youngdae to reunite for another drama because I loved their chemistry in The Forbidden Marriage. I’m excited for this one. I don’t know what to expect, but I’m definitely going to check this one out.
