JTBC’s upcoming drama “A Virtuous Business” has released a sneak peek of its first episode!
A remake of the British television series “Brief Encounters,” “A Virtuous Business” will tell the story of the independence, growth, and friendship of four women who delve into door-to-door sales of adult products in a rural village back in 1992, when it was still taboo to talk about sex.
The new preview of the drama’s premiere begins with Han Jung Sook (Kim So Yeon) scouring the newspaper for “help wanted” ads, noting that there aren’t that many jobs she can work while raising her kid at the same time. Jung Sook then discovers that her good-for-nothing husband has spent their rent money, leading her to make the difficult decision to jump into selling adult products.
Jung Sook is soon joined by Seo Young Bok (Kim Sun Young), who is similarly strapped for cash, and she later recruits housewife Oh Geum Hee (Kim Sung Ryung) by promising, “It’ll be a new and fun experience.”
The preview then cuts to Jung Sook’s memorable run-in with newly transferred detective Kim Do Hyun (Yeon Woo Jin), who holds up some of the wares she’s peddling while asking in disbelief, “So you’re saying these are your final hope, right?” Clutching her rescued goods to her chest, Jung Sook runs away while exclaiming, “Thank you!”
When Jung Sook presents the products she has for sale to a room of new customers, they are initially shocked by the lingerie on display—but business soon starts flourishing. The preview ends with Jung Sook happily exclaiming, “I’ve developed confidence in this business.”
“A Virtuous Business” premieres on October 12 at 10:30 p.m. KST. In the meantime, check out the new preview below!
