Living your life like it's a k-drama is not ideal.
Wang Ming Yue should know. After all, having overslept one morning after spending all-night watching a kdrama, (which meant she showed up late to her production assistant job), exhaustion ends up not being the only thing on her mind when odd things start happening to her. Eventually leading her to believe that her life has turned into a tropey k-drama.
Life gets even more messy when a massive cold war between wealthy chaebol Chinese and Korean martial arts-practicing families turns hot over rumors of The Pearl, an ancient treasure, being hidden in her family's possession. Now trying to make it as a singer, (as she's now living a literal drama life), seems like it should be the least of her worries.
Watch her survive tedious tropes while having to handle magic, family feuds, gang crime and romantic drama all while trying to keep her head on straight!
Welcome to The Pearl, a satire on present-day k-dramas and c-dramas!
Warning: It gets dark...real quick. #sorrynotsorry
