A gripping new teaser for 100 Days of Deception just dropped, and it wastes no time pulling viewers into a world of espionage, disguise, and dangerous loyalties. Directed by Yoo In Shik, the acclaimed mind behind Extraordinary Attorney Woo and the Dr. Romantic series, this period spy romance unfolds over 100 tense days during the Japanese occupation of Korea.
At the center is Lee Ga Kyeong (Kim You Jung), Gyeongseong’s top pickpocket who transforms into an undercover independence spy, infiltrating the Japanese Government-General of Korea. There, she becomes dangerously entangled with interpreter Kim Tae Woong, also known as Sato Hideo, played by GOT7’s Park Jinyoung.
The teaser introduces a web of hidden agendas: Lee Ga Kyeong strikes a risky bargain to fulfill her dream of becoming a spy, while sniper Yoo So Ran (Kim Hyun Joo) closes in on a target she’s hunted for 13 long years. Meanwhile, Sato Hideo’s fractured bond with his father-figure, political official Sato Shinichi (Jin Sun Kyu), takes a dark turn — met not with warmth, but with a gun pointed at him.
Adding another layer, Yoo Philip (Lee Moo Saeng), a Korean-American journalist, digs for the truth beneath the surface. And amid all the danger, Lee Ga Kyeong — disguised as “Geum Seo Hee” — draws closer to Sato Hideo, with the two sharing an emotional embrace in the rain that hints at a romance built entirely on secrets.
