Netflix Unveils Teaser Trailer for Korean Series ‘Hierarchy’
Step into the corridors of Jooshin High School, where wealth and status are everything, and secrets hide behind every corner. Premiering on June 7, Hierarchy offers a fresh take on the high school drama genre.
Directed by Bae Hyeon-jin (Start Up, Big Mouth, Alchemy of Souls) and written by Chu Hye-mi (About Time), the series unfolds in a prestigious private high school governed by a rigid social hierarchy that reflects the corruption often seen in adult society, complete with the inevitable gossip, scandal and conflict. The teaser reveals a world where the children of the rich hold sway with their money and social rank.
The series features a cast of promising new actors, led by Roh Jeong-eui (Badland Hunters, Our Beloved Summer) as Jung Jae-i, the most popular girl in school and dubbed as the queen. Following her is Lee Chae-min (Crash Course in Romance, Alchemy of Souls) as Kang Ha, the scholarship transfer who shakes things up in their world. Kim Jae-won (King the Land, Our Blues) plays Kim Ri-an, Jae-i’s boyfriend and the school’s king. Rounding out the group of popular students are Chi Hae-won as Yoon He-ra and Lee Won-jeong as Lee Woo-jin.
With a mysterious death, a new student and bold moves that threaten the established order, what secrets will come to light amid these unsettling events at Jooshin High School? Find out on June 7 when Hierarchy premieres, exclusively on Netflix.
