It’s auditing season over at tvN’s upcoming drama The Auditors. Starring Shin Ha-kyun (Evilive), the teaser gives us a brief look at what goes on in the life of the incredibly beloved job of an auditor.
The teaser hinges on the the pun that also forms the basis of this drama’s Korean name: gamsahamnida. It means “thank you” but also “I’m going to audit you,” which in this drama’s context perfectly conveys the double entendre of having someone hand you an annoying tax document with a customer service smile.
We open on our two junior auditors — Gu Han-soo, played by Lee Jung-ha (Moving), and Yoon Seo-jin, played by Jo Ah-ram (Doctor Cha) — retrieving documents from their fellow employees while saying gamsahamnidaJin Gu (Shadow Detective). He’s a man on a mission to inherit his company, with a bold hairdo to boot, and as our trio enters the room, he ends his phone call with a smarmy gamsahamnida (thank you) to his caller.
Clearly this man has been reveling in some shady dealings, but the party comes to a halt as Cha-il strides to his desk and hits him with our final gamsahamnida (get wrecked I’m going to audit you).
With scripts by Choi Min-ho (Poong the Joseon Psychiatrist) and directed by PD Kwon Young-il (Wedding Impossible, Doom at Your Service) tvN’s upcoming The Auditors will premiere on July 6.
