Joining the roster is the latest Korean drama, Green Mothers’ Club. The Ra Ha Na directed drama marks actress Lee Yo Won’s Netflix debut. Crash Landing on You and Parasite actress Jang Hye Jin will also star in the drama. The Shin Yi Won penned drama will air on jTBC first before dropping on Netflix. 

The 16 part series has an approximate runtime of 60 minutes. Two episodes will air every Wednesday and Thursday, finally concluding on May 26th. Green Mothers’ Club premiere garnered a decent amount of viewership. According to Nielsen Korea, it amassed a total rating of 2.519 percent in Korea. The ensemble drama comes right on the heels of another slice of life drama, Thirty-Nine. 

What is the plot of Green Mothers’ Club?

The premise may remind you of Desperate Housewives and even Big Little Lies but with a KDrama twist. And if you are an avid Korean Drama fan, you will immediately think of Sky Castle and Black Dog. The school setting and the toxic relationship between the neighborhood parents are similar.
