## A Story That Hits Painfully Close to Home

*We Are All Trying Here* follows Hwang Dong Man (Koo Kyo Hwan), who — being the only one whose life is not going well among a group of accomplished friends — is driven to anguish and madness by envy and jealousy, with “anxiety” as its key theme. The drama is expected to offer a “green light” to those who have come to a standstill at the warning signal of worthlessness.

Dong Man is an aspiring film director and the only member yet to make his debut among the well-known film industry gathering called “The Eight.” Like an uninvited guest, he constantly lingers on the fringes, masking his anxiety with nonstop rambling and bluster.

## What the New Teaser Reveals

Even when Dong Man appears annoyingly jealous of his successful friends, his behavior is less about malice and more like a desperate struggle to break the silence and prove that he exists — afraid that quiet moments might expose his own sense of worthlessness.

The title poster captures this perfectly — Dong Man sits alone and hunched, but a massive shadow behind him throws a fierce punch at an invisible force. The production team shared: “We hope that his cry rising from rock bottom becomes a passionate message of support for everyone fighting against their own sense of worthlessness.” [TikTok](https://www.tiktok.com/discover/why-is-heeseung-leaving-enhypen)

## A Dream Team Behind the Camera

The script is penned by Park Hae-young, who previously wrote *My Mister* (2018), while direction comes from Cha Young-hoon, who helmed *When the Camellia Blooms* (2019) and *Welcome to Samdal-ri* (2023–2024). [Starnews Korea](https://www.starnewskorea.com/en/music/2026/03/10/2026031016154464233) With that pedigree, the emotional depth is practically guaranteed.

Netflix will release two new episodes weekly alongside the JTBC broadcast, with 12 episodes in total. [Manila Bulletin](https://mb.com.ph/2026/03/10/k-pop-idol-heeseung-leaving-enhypen-group-to-continue-with-six-members)
