SEOUL, Mar. 22 (Yonhap) -- A quiet village in the countryside of Korea and teenagers. The new noir drama will be unveiled, featuring a setting and characters that are unlikely to match with drugs.

Yoon, who plays a pure and exemplary student Gong Yoon-tak, explained, "Yoon-tak is honest and naive, but he is often soft-hearted, clumsy, and foxy," adding, "The more I get to know him, the more interesting he is."
He said in terms of the difference from Cheong-san in "All of Us Are Dead," "Cheong-san's goal was to survive, but Yoon-tak's goal is to protect his family. I think it naturally makes differences between the two characters.”
Rookie actress Won Ji-an, who previously appeared in Netflix’s original series “D.P,” plays her first female lead in “Juvenile Delinquency(translated).” She plays the role of Kyung Da-jung, who discovers a field of marijuana plants while hiding in the countryside after being used as a drug mule by her parents.

Won said, "It is illegal to raise marijuana plants, but it was a way to make a living for Da-jung,” adding, “I could relate more to the story of this character(Da-jung) than to the unique subject matter itself, and I felt that it is similar to me at that time."
Along with Won Ji-an and Yoon Chan-young, actors Yoon Hyun-soo, Han Se-jin, and Yang Seo-hyeon are also part of the cast.
