Buried Hearts is a 2025 South Korean thriller-drama series directed by Jin Chang-kyu, following a brilliant hacker who steals a colossal corporate slush fund and sets off a chain of betrayal, hidden alliances, and dangerous power struggles inside one of Korea's most powerful conglomerates.
What is Buried Hearts about?
When a gifted hacker manages to siphon off two trillion won in illicit corporate funds, the act is not a simple theft — it is the first move in a much larger confrontation. The money belongs to Daesan Group, a powerful conglomerate with secrets buried deep within its foundations. As investigators, corporate insiders, and shadowy figures each scramble to recover the funds, layers of deception peel back one by one. Loyalties shift without warning, and every character who believes they hold the upper hand quickly discovers how little they truly know. The series builds steadily toward exposing what the Daesan Group's most influential player actually wants — and the answer is far more sweeping than anyone anticipated.
Cast & crew
