ENA is gearing up for a compelling new Monday–Tuesday drama titled Idol I, premiering on December 22, 2025 at 10 PM KST. The series blends romance, mystery, and legal drama, creating a fresh narrative centered around a passionate lawyer and her idol client whose world comes crashing down after a shocking accusation.
The story follows Maeng Se-na, a brilliant and undefeated criminal defense lawyer who hides one major secret—she has been a devoted fan of idol star Do Ra-ik for years. Her life takes an unexpected turn when Ra-ik, a popular member of the group Gold Boys, becomes the prime suspect in a murder case. Determined to protect him both as a lawyer and as a fan, Se-na steps in to defend him, setting the stage for a romance fueled by loyalty, fear, and truth.
As she digs deeper, she uncovers layers of Ra-ik’s life that blur the line between who he is as a celebrity and who he is as a human being. The case forces both of them to confront hidden truths—about the crime, fame, and their feelings.
Choi Soo-young brings strength and emotional complexity to the role of Se-na, while Kim Jae-young takes on the challenging role of Ra-ik, balancing vulnerability and suspicion. Their chemistry and the high-stakes plot promise an engaging journey filled with tension, heartfelt moments, and unexpected twists. With its mix of romance, legal battles, and the darker side of stardom, Idol I aims to deliver a gripping story that resonates with both K-drama fans and idol enthusiasts alike.
