The story, without the spoilers.
Hae Jo is a man who has drifted through life like plankton, belonging nowhere and to no one, never knowing who his father was. Then a doctor tells him he has only weeks to live, and he decides to find the one thing he never had: a family. On the same day, Jo Jae-mi is about to marry into a wealthy family when she discovers a secret that makes the wedding impossible, and Hae Jo, in a moment of reckless impulse, takes her with him. What follows is a road trip across Korea, chased by Jae-mi's furious fiance Eo Heung, as two people with nothing to lose slowly discover what they have been missing. Mr. Plankton premiered on Netflix on November 8, 2024, in ten episodes, starring Woo Do-hwan, Lee Yoo-mi and Oh Jung-se. It is a romantic comedy about death, family and the strange freedom of having nothing left to lose.
A little curiosity. A new favourite.
