Unveiling ‘S-Line’: A Webtoon Adaptation Premiering at Cannes

The highly-anticipated drama ‘S-Line’ has received a prestigious invitation to the Cannes International Series Festival. This marks the first domestic content to win a music award in the long-form category. Lead actor Lee SooHyuk expressed both disbelief and excitement about this invitation. He reminisced about the emotions he felt during his flight to France.

‘S-Line’ is based on a popular webtoon by the talented author Kkomabi. This drama weaves a captivating fantasy thriller narrative. It follows Hyun Heup, a girl with a unique ability to see a red line connecting people in sexual relationships. This peculiar gift leads her into a chilling murder investigation, intertwining her fate with the mysteries surrounding these connections.

This drama is the second installment of Kkomabi’s ‘Death Trilogy.’ It follows the success of ‘Murderer: Awkward,’ which was adapted into a Netflix series. While ‘S-Line’ retains the webtoon’s original world, some elements have been adapted. Notably, only a select few can perceive the enigmatic line.

Lee SooHyuk plays Ji-wook, a detective with complex lines that delve into the narrative’s core. He describes the title as both engaging and captivating. He was drawn in by the webtoon’s themes of change that arise when private matters come to light.

Taking on this role has not been without its challenges. Balancing filming schedules with another historical drama tested Lee SooHyuk’s limits. However, the director’s support motivated him to explore different facets of his acting abilities. He noted the undeniable chemistry among the cast, including co-stars Lee Da-hee and Arin from the girl group OH MY GIRL.

Director Ahn Joo-young emphasized that while some elements from the original webtoon have been altered, the central theme remains. The drama explores how individuals transform when secrets are unveiled. She encourages viewers to consider how they would react if they could see such lines in reality, adding thought-provoking intrigue to the series.

‘S-Line’ is set to premiere on November 11. There will be six episodes released, with two episodes each week over three weeks. As the countdown to its debut begins, anticipation builds for this unique blend of fantasy, thriller, and human emotion.

In summary, ‘S-Line’ not only highlights Kkomabi’s creative vision but also showcases the growing impact of webtoon adaptations in the drama industry. The Cannes International Series Festival invitation marks a significant milestone for this innovative series.
