"I Am A Running Mate" Postpones Premiere At Last Minute

Just one week before its scheduled release, TVING’s upcoming drama “I Am a Running Mate” has postponed its premiere.

“I Am a Running Mate,” which marks the directorial debut of Oscar-winning “Parasite” writer Han Jin Won, is a teen political drama about a fierce race for student council. Yoon Hyun Soo will star as Noh Se Hoon, a student who becomes the laughingstock of his school after an unfortunate incident. However, when he is suddenly nominated as a candidate for vice president in the student council election, his life takes an unexpected turn. Thrust into a whirlwind of cutthroat strategies and power plays, Noh Se Hoon is determined to reclaim his dignity and seize victory.

While the drama was originally scheduled to premiere on March 6, it has now been pushed back to an undetermined date.

On February 26, TVING explained to StarNews, “As part of our programming strategy, we plan to change the release schedule for ‘I Am a Running Mate.’ In an industry competition where the situation changes every minute, we intend to rediscuss the optimal release timing for ‘I Am a Running Mate,’ which is one of TVING’s key original productions.”

“We will update you on the release schedule later on once it has been decided,” they continued. “Also, in order to improve the immersive quality of the drama, we plan to release all of the episodes at once, instead of releasing them weekly [as was originally planned].”

Check out a teaser for the drama here, and stay tuned for updates on its new premiere date!
