The new year may have just started but MBC is wasting no time in promoting its upcoming fantasy comedy Oh My Ghost Clients (previously called Labor Attorney Noh Mu-jin). The show stars Jung Kyung-ho (The Trunk) as the titular hero who wakes up one day with the ability to see ghosts, which results in lots of incredulous looks and wacky scenarios.
The newest teaser opens up with Noh Mu-jin (Jung Kyung-ho) explaining the definition of “labor attorney” as a scholar who helps working people. However, things take a turn when Mu-jin walks through a construction site, and a pile of steel beams falls towards him. It seems he may have survived the accident but not unscathed. He wakes up with a jolt and stammers a question at the stranger in the car who no one else can see. The once money-motivated attorney apparently sees ghosts now, but hey, at least he’s still alive.
Joining Mu-jin on his new quest in life is Seol In-ah (Twinkling Watermelon) as Na Hee-joo, his sister-in-law and the brains behind the operations. While some may call her a swindler, Hee-joo clarifies that she uses facts to make negotiations, thus differentiating her from scammers who simply lie. By her side is content creator Go Gyeon-woo played by Cha Hak-yeon (Castaway Diva), and the duo becomes an unstoppable trio.
Having escaped death, Mu-jin is ready to butt heads, and if he puts his mind to it, he can accomplish anything. Even Hee-joo is a little surprised by her brother-in-law, admitting that he really is a labor attorney, and Mu-jin reminds her that he is, in fact, a professional.
Directed by filmmaker Im Soon-rye (The Point Men, Little Forest) with scripts penned by Kim Bo-tong (D.P.) and Yoo Seung-hee (A Year-End Medley), MBC’s Oh My Ghost Clients is slated to premiere sometime in May of this year.
