In the drama, Jung Hae-sung (played by Seo Kang-joon) is tasked with finding the whereabouts of gold bars worth 800 billion hidden in Byeongmun High School. Disguised as a high school student for undercover investigation, he narrows down his investigation based on the suspicious old school building and the rumors circulating within the school. The school chairman, Seo Myeong-joo (played by Kim Shin-rok), becomes suspicious of Hae-sung's movements, leading to a fierce back-and-forth.

From the moment Hae-sung enters the school, he faces a series of tumultuous days. Whenever incidents such as school violence and academic fraud arise, Hae-sung steps in, and his homeroom teacher, Oh Soo-a (played by Jin Ki-joo), also gets involved in various matters.

#A Drama for All Generations and Genders to Enjoy Together
With Seo Kang-joon's action performance, Jin Ki-joo's perfect portrayal of ‘Soo-a teacher,’ and the chilling villainy of the talented actor Kim Shin-rok, the ironic backdrop of a National Intelligence Service ace agent becoming a high school student adds a humorous twist to the situation. Rather than being a heavy and breathless mystery drama, it is a ‘meal friend’ drama that families of all generations and genders can gather around to laugh and enjoy together, which is the final point.
Meanwhile, ‘Undercover High School’ will be the first MBC drama to air not only on the existing OTT platform Wavve but also on Tving after the MBC broadcast, proving its artistic quality and competitiveness. ‘Undercover High School’ will premiere on the 21st at 9:50 PM.
