The Divorce Insurance, the latest K-drama featuring Lee Dong-wook, flips the script on traditional romance. The show tackles modern relationships with its unconventional premise. Joining the actor is actress Lee Da-hee, best known for her performances in The Beauty Inside and I Can Hear Your Voice, and more. Da-hee plays Jeon Na-rae, a financial mathematician whose life takes an unexpected turn after she joins the product development team at a life insurance company. Together, they set out to create a pathbreaking divorce insurance product that can protect everyone’s future.
Sharing insights about her character, Lee Da-hee opened up about what drew her to Jeon Na-rae. She shared, “I think what defines Na-rae is her confidence.” She continued, “I admired how she stands by her choices without regret and carries herself with self-assurance. I believe these qualities make her even more lovable.” Beyond her character’s arc, Da-hee also touched upon the series’ broader exploration of marriage and divorce. Challenging the conventional approach to marriages, the actress said, “Don’t go all-in on your marriage.” She further highlighted, “I don’t think it’s right to give up everything, because there are other very important parts of your life other than marriage.”
Lee Da-hee also hopes the series sparks a more open discourse around the topic. She shared, “I hope viewers can see divorce from a broader perspective rather than simply viewing it as something negative. I’d also love for them to reflect on what it means to love themselves and live authentically.”
Besides Lee Da-Hee and Lee Dong-wook, the K-drama also features Lee Joo-been, and Lee Kwang-soo in the lead roles. The series is directed by Lee Won-seok and produced by KT Studio Genie, Mongjagso, and Studio Mondo. With the first episode now available to stream, new episodes of The Divorce Insurance will premiere on Mondays and Tuesdays on Prime Video.
