‘We Are All Trying Here’ Premieres Saturday on JTBC With Netflix and Tving Release

The Park Hae-young drama centers on quiet healing through being seen.

Overview

  • The 12-episode series, which premieres Saturday at 10:40 p.m. KST on JTBC, will also stream on Netflix and Tving.
  • The story follows Dong-man, played by Koo Kyo-hwan, an aspiring filmmaker who feels left behind as friends find success.
  • Director Cha Young-hoon said Friday the show is not a triumph tale but a study of worthlessness eased when someone says you matter.
  • Go Youn-jung plays producer Eun-a, while Oh Jung-se’s long, prickly friendship with Dong-man adds humor through petty jabs.
  • The weekend slot puts the show up against other high-profile dramas on Korean cable, while global streaming could broaden its audience.
