Zing, a youth entertainment channel, is all set to air the blockbuster K-Drama ‘Pinocchio’ from 2nd January, 2023. The show will be added to Zing’s popular Hallyu Time Slot and will air from January 2nd, 2023, weekdays from 6 PM to 7 PM.
‘Pinocchio’ follows the lives of a journalist named Choi In-ha and a young boy named Ki Ha-myung as they navigate through dramatic twists and turns. Choi In-ha suffers from a condition called Pinocchio syndrome, which causes her to hiccup whenever she lies. The struggles she faces in pursuing her dreams and the efforts of Ki Ha-myung as he deals with his tragedy take the audience on a emotional journey set against a politically charged backdrop. The show is directed by Jo Soo-won and Shin Seung-woo and features Lee Jong-suk, Park Shin-hye, Kim Young-kwang, Yoon Kyun-sang, Lee Yu-bi, and Jin Kyung among others.
Talking about Pinocchio, Arghya Roy Chowdhury, Chief Channel Officer – Zing, shared, “Pinocchio is the perfect blend of a sensitive depiction of a serious drama and the aftermath of a ruthless conspiracy. The two lead characters undergo their respective challenges in their personal and professional lives to come out successful in the unforgiving news industry. The show is filled with tribulations and sacrifices, bringing out the indomitable power of friendship and love. Pinocchio makes us think, inspires us to never give up, and therefore, is a must-watch show. We hope that Pinocchio delights our audiences as our previous K-Dramas have done till now.”
