What Is Apartment About?

A gangster vs. a corporate titan — both living under the same roof. The tension writes itself.
Baek Hyun Jin is reported to play Lee Kang Won, the chairman of the residents’ association, who is expected to become deeply entangled with the hidden money that Hae Kang is targeting.
And then there’s Moon So Ri as the apartment’s resident chatterbox — the kind of character who knows everything about everyone, making her either the most useful ally or the most dangerous liability in the building.
This kind of ensemble storytelling is what makes Korean drama so endlessly watchable — every character serves a purpose, and every relationship is charged with possibility.
Apartment is set to premiere in 2026. soompi No exact date has been confirmed yet, but this one is firmly on every K-drama fan’s radar.
