‘Repentance’ unveils poster

Upcoming MBC law drama series “Repentance” revealed its official poster for the show, which features the three main characters of the series, Kim Myung-min, Park Min-young and Kim Sang-jung.

The new series depicts the struggles of fledgling law firm intern Lee Ji-yoon (Park Min-young) who becomes embroiled in a huge legal battle as she teams up with high-profile lawyer Kim Seok-joo (Kim Myung-min).

Joining the couple is veteran actor Kim Sang-jung, who has been active in a number of thriller drama series over the past few years, including “City Hunter” (2011) and “The Chaser” (2012), where he played characters who straddled the line between good and evil.

According to the last month’s interview with local media, the broadcaster said that “Repentance” would not merely highlight the romantic relationship of the characters, but focus more on complex legal battles and power struggles inside the law firm.

Screenwriter Choi Hee-ra, of the 2012 medical drama “Golden Time,” and producer Park Jae-bum, of “Missing You” (2012), lead the production team.

The first episode airs at 9:55 p.m. on Wednesday.
