A new teaser has been released for upcoming mystery drama, The Road: Tragedy of One. The story begins on a night of heavy rain. A horrible tragedy occurs, but only silence and evasion ensue. The tangled web of secrets and deception beget yet another tragedy.
Ji Jin-hee (Move to Heaven) and Yoon Se-ah (Forest of Secrets 2) play a husband-wife pair. He’s a nationally famous anchorman, and she’s his perfect housewife. Kim Hye-eun (Graceful Friends) also plays an ambitious, successful news announcer at the same broadcasting station who thirsts for an even more extravagant life. Last but not least, Chun Ho-jin (Beyond Evil) plays Yoon Se-ah’s father and Ji Jin-hee’s father-in-law.
The teaser begins with the text “In a moment that swallowed the truth…” In a large forest, Ji Jin-hee points a rifle at his father-in-law. In his voiceover, he says: “I will go until the end because this is my true nature.” Chun Ho-jin smirks and tells him not to be too confident, because no one knows the future.
The scene switches to an expensive-looking estate, and the text finishes: “…a tragedy began.” Kim Hye-eun approaches Ji Jin-hee threateningly and warns him, “Be careful. I have less to lose than you, Sunbae.” When she’s by herself, she throws a wine glass at the wall in a rage.
The following scene captures Yoon Se-ah at a party with her son, looking at him lovingly. It’s late at night when she wraps her arms around Ji Jin-hee and gazes at him with a bittersweet smile. Her voiceover says: “My goal is to keep my family safe.”
tvN Wednesday-Thursday drama The Road: Tragedy of One, written by Yoon Hee-jung and directed by Kim Noh-won, will begin airing on August 4.
