Get ready to add a new title to your watchlist! Netflix has officially confirmed the production of its upcoming Korean series, “The Dealer.” If you enjoyed the tension of Squid Game or the high-stakes drama of Tazza, this one is definitely for you.
What is ‘The Dealer’ About?
The series follows Geonhwa, a brilliant and seasoned casino dealer who has always kept her distance from the “dark side” of the gambling world. However, when her wedding plans are ruined by a housing scam, she is forced to return to the underworld she once avoided.
To save her future and make it down the aisle, she must unleash her hidden “powers” and navigate a dangerous world of high-stakes gambling and crime.
A Star-Studded Team
Netflix is pulling out the big guns for this production:
The Cast: Starring Jung So-min (Alchemy of Souls) as the talented dealer, alongside Ryoo Seung-bum, Lee Soo-hyuk, and Ryu Kyung-soo.
The Producer: Hwang Dong-hyuk, the visionary director behind the global phenomenon Squid Game, is serving as a producer.
The Director: Choi Young-hwan, the acclaimed cinematographer behind the legendary poker film Tazza: The High Rollers, will be making his directorial debut.
Why Poker Fans Should Care
With a team that deeply understands the “glitz and tension” of the casino floor, the series promises to deliver authentic gambling thrills. Expect sharp skills, impenetrable poker faces, and the kind of high-tension table action that only veteran Korean creators can provide.
The series will premiere exclusively on Netflix, though a release date has not yet been announced. Stay tuned to Somuchpoker for more updates!
