The Midnight Romance in Hagwon, featuring Jung Ryeo Won and Wi Ha Joon, drops first still. 

tvN's upcoming weekend drama The Midnight Romance in Hagwon has confirmed its premiere date for May 11 and surprised fans with a still. 

The Midnight Romance in Hagwon tells the story of star lecturer Seo Hye Jin (Jung Ryeo Won) and her cheeky student Lee Jun Ho (Wi Ha Joon), whom she helped get into a prestigious university ten years earlier. The K-drama is set against the backdrop of Daechi, a neighborhood known as the heart of hagwons (private educational institutions) in South Korea.

Jung Ryeo Won portrays the star lecturer Seo Hye Jin, who has been in the industry for 14 years. With solid expertise, she is a quietly competitive player who never gives up.

Wi Ha Joon plays the role of Lee Jun Ho, a rookie instructor who unexpectedly comes back into Seo Hye Jin's life. He threw away his job as a corporate employee at a large company that guaranteed him a secure career and returned to hagwon. He is the "Miracle of Daechi-dong", an extraordinary case that shot Seo Hye Jin to fame. 

The Midnight Romance in Hagwon will premiere on May 11.
