It seems like Netflix is far up into Korean content more than one can imagine at this point. The latest addition to Netflix’s South Korean library is a limited series titled ‘Somebody’. Netflix dropped the official first trailer of the show today and it is indeed very exciting. The show will premiere on Netflix worldwide and India from November 18th, 2022. The Netflix original has eight episodes.
Somebody follows Som, the developer of the popular social media app “Somebody“. She is forced into a murder investigation when her app is at the centres of the case. Som’s friend and detective, Ki Eun heads the investigation and is assisted by their mutual friend Mok Won. Somebody trailer opens to a serial murderer who murders women who he matches with on a dating app. We are then shown of the creator of the app curiously meeting up with him and then revealing herself to be similar to him. The trailer slightly hints at two serial murderers falling for each other through the voiceovers. From the looks of it, Somebody has everything going for it to be the next big Korean thing for Netflix.
Somebody is an upcoming South Korean psychological thriller series directed by Jung Ji Woo (Tune in for Love fame) and written by screenwriter Han Ji Wan (The Ghost Detective). The limited series stars Kim Young-kwang, Kang Hae-rim, Kim Yong-ji and Kim Soo-yeon in major roles. It’s a second Netflix Original for Kim Young-kwang, who previously starred in the 2021 romantic comedy series Hello, Me!. While Kang Hae Lim makes her Netflix debut in Somebody as the lead character Som.
