No Rest for Junho: Netflix Drops 8-Episode Original 'Cashero' Weeks After His Last Finale
Actor Junho is back just weeks after his last drama finale with the new Netflix original 'Cashero'. An 8-episode action-fantasy series, we break down what to expect and what it says about Netflix's strategy.
It seems there’s no such thing as a break for Lee Junho. Just weeks after the finale of his drama 'Typhoon Family', the star is back, headlining Netflix's new original series, 'Cashero'.
Dropping all 8 episodes this Friday, 'Cashero' is a genre-bending series that blends action, black comedy, and fantasy. As a Netflix original, it’s poised for a global release, tapping directly into the massive international fanbase for K-dramas.
A Hero Powered by... Cash?
The series reportedly revolves around a hero whose superpowers are directly linked to the amount of cash he possesses. This unique premise injects a layer of gritty black comedy into the fantasy and action elements, promising a fresh take on the conventional superhero narrative.
The 'Junho Effect' on Streaming
Netflix's choice to feature Junho is a calculated move. Releasing 'Cashero' so soon after the conclusion of 'Typhoon Family' capitalizes on his current buzz and immense popularity. This back-to-back scheduling with A-list talent has become a signature tactic for the streamer to secure viewership and dominate the K-content landscape.
