New stills of Im Shi-wan (Run On) have been released for upcoming drama Tracer. In addition, it was recently reported that Go Ah-sung (Life on Mars) would be the latest addition to the cast, which already includes big names like Sohn Hyun-joo (Itaewon Class, The Good Detective) and Park Yong-woo (Priest). The drama is centered around the National Tax Service (Korea’s version of the IRS) — the most detested and feared of all public agencies.
Go Ah-sung plays Seo Hye-young, a team member in the fifth bureau of taxation, who is firm in her convictions and directly pursues her goals. Im Shi-wan plays the leader of her team; his character Hwang Dong-joo is brazen and doggedly determined to track down dirty money. He makes others around him self-conscious because he’s so good at what he does.
Sohn Hyun-joo plays the meticulous and ambitious Seoul Central District Tax Commissioner. His character, In Tae-joon, has lofty goals of soaring to new heights with his next promotion. Then there’s Park Yong-woo, playing Section Chief Oh Young, whose greatest work in life is avoiding actual work.
Tracer is set to air sometime this coming winter on the Wavve streaming platform.
