Strangers Again is a 12-episode legal romance drama starring Jang Seung-jo (Snowdrop, The Good Detective series, Encounter, Familiar Wife, Hwajung), Kang So-ra (Revolutionary Love, My Lawyer Mr. Joe, Doctor Stranger, Ugly Alert, Sunny), Jo Eun-ji (Lost, Entertainer, Oh My Venus, Beating Again) and Mu Jin-Sung (Beautiful You, Scholar Who Walks the Night, Misaeng: Incomplete Life, A Witch’s Love). This drama tells the story of life and love between two talented lawyers who lived as strangers after their divorce.

The ex-husband, who signed the dotted line on one of the worst divorce agreements of all time has come back into my life. Not to wail ‘come back to me,’ not to ask for more money, but with a nonsensical desire to ‘help me get remarried.’ What is he really after, having ruined my life once already?

Two divorce lawyers who get married after 10 years of dating winds up getting divorced themselves. Oh Ha-ra (Kang So-ra) is a star divorce lawyer. She has good looks and is known to be professional, but is easily enraged when it comes to things that concern her ex-husband, Gu Eun-beom (Jang Seung-jo). Eun-beom is a well-liked lawyer who is gentle and humorous. When the two reunite as colleagues in the same law firm, Ha-ra experiences mixed feelings at Eun-beom’s nonchalant attitude. Eun-beom wishes for Ha-ra’s real happiness and supports her independence. However, the surprising appearance of Eun-beom at work turns Ha-ra’s peaceful life into a roller coaster mixed feelings of rage and heart-fluttering excitement. Can they become the perfect strangers?
