"IDOL: The Coup" Hints At Conflict Between EXID's Hani, WJSN's Exy, LABOUM's Solbin, And More In New Sneak Peek

JTBC’s upcoming drama “IDOL: The Coup” has shared an intriguing new glimpse of its girl group Cotton Candy!

“IDOL: The Coup” is a new drama about idols who have failed to reach stardom and are struggling to let go of their unachieved dreams. The cast will include Kwak Si Yang, EXID’s Hani, Kim Min Kyu, LABOUM’s Solbin, WJSN’s Exy, Lee Eun Sang, Hong Eun Ki, Jo Joon Young, Redsquare’s Green, Han So Eun, and Baek Seo Hoo.

Newly released stills from the drama offer a look inside the everyday life of fictional girl group Cotton Candy, which consists of leader Jenna (Hani), Hyunji (Solbin), Stella (Han So Eun), El (Exy), and ChaeA (Green). Cotton Candy is widely considered a failure because, despite being in the sixth year of their career, the public still doesn’t know their names—and the stress seems to have gotten to the members over time.

While some of the photos capture the excitement of Cotton Candy heading on stage or the relaxed, tight-knit bond between the bandmates as they work together in the practice room, other photos hint at the unseen conflicts between the members. One photo features Jenna and Stella glaring fiercely at someone, while others suggest that some of the group members may be hiding secrets: while hanging out with her bandmates at home, Hyunji turns away to furtively check her phone, and El appears worried as she suspiciously sneaks off to do something on her own.

The producers of “IDOL: The Coup” teased, “Each and every one of the Cotton Candy members has her own story. Please look forward to seeing how those personal stories affect Cotton Candy as a group.”

“IDOL: The Coup” will premiere on November 8 at 11 p.m. KST. Check out a teaser for the drama here!
