Family Plan centers on a mother with an extraordinary power to edit memories, who teams up with her family to take down villains uniquely unpredictable. This series promises a compelling mix of family dynamics and action-packed revenge.
The trailer opens with an intriguing scene: Young-soo, portrayed by Bae Doona, strides down a dimly lit hotel hallway. As she notices a squeaky noise, she nonchalantly says, “It’s squeaking,” and then delivers a decisive blow to a man, setting an intense tone. Her daughter Ji-woo, played by Lee Soo-hyun, appears next, asking her mother the pointed question, “What is your identity?” This line not only hints at the depth of their relationship but also raises immediate questions about Young-soo’s mysterious background. Each family member, introduced one by one, has an eccentric vibe, building suspense about their unusual roles within the family.
As the trailer continues, Kang-sung (Baek Yoon Sik) delivers a striking line: “How about we reveal what kind of family we are and solve it together?” With this, the tone shifts from quirky to suspenseful, hinting at the family’s shift from dysfunctional unity to a ruthless force against their foes. The scenes quickly become more intense, showing glimpses of bloody confrontations and violent altercations, suggesting the family’s chaotic journey will be far from typical. The chemistry among these unconventional characters, all seemingly hiding something, makes for a distinctive viewing experience. In particular, Young-soo’s cool smile at the end of the trailer suggests she has secrets of her own, leaving audiences eager to uncover her true identity and the chaotic challenges the family will face together.
