Tving Original 'Running Mate' Yoon Hyun-soo, Lee Jung-sik, Choi Woo-sung, Hong Hwa-yeon, Lee Bong-jun, and Kim Ji-woo begin the unpredictable election war 'total war.'

The Tving Original 'Running Mate' (directed and written by Han Jin-won, produced by Billions, Ace Maker Studios, Running Mate Cultural Industry Professional Limited Company, provided by Tving) revealed today (19th) the faces of No Se-hoon (played by Yoon Hyun-soo), Kwak Sang-hyun (played by Lee Jung-sik), Yang Won-dae (played by Choi Woo-sung), Yoon Jung-hee (played by Hong Hwa-yeon), Park Ji-hoon (played by Lee Bong-jun), and Ha Yu-kyung (played by Kim Ji-woo), who are competing for the student council president position. What awaits them after a fierce election involving enthusiastic support from all students, election campaigns, and an unimaginable public opinion battle is generating curiosity.

'Running Mate' is a high-teen cheerful political drama where No Se-hoon, who became the laughingstock of all students due to an unforeseen incident, is nominated as the vice president candidate in the student council election and fights through various cunning tactics toward victory. The drama is expected to deliver a unique enjoyment with the boiling desires and emotions of youth during a fierce high school student council presidential election, shining friendships, and warm growth stories.

The photos released that day depict the colorful scenes of the Kwak Sang-hyun and Yang Won-dae camps as they officially enter the election battle. First, No Se-hoon, who clutched his heart after completing his student council presidential candidate registration, seems to foreshadow the storm that is about to hit him. Having received the 'pick' of Kwak Sang-hyun, a role model for Yeongjin High School students, No Se-hoon rises from the 'loser' to the 'insider.' It is intriguing to see if he can successfully change his image during this rollercoaster of a month.

The intense psychological battle between Kwak Sang-hyun and Yang Won-dae, who are fiercely competing as student council presidential candidates, has also been captured. The heat of the election battle, in which they must 'absolutely win', is conveyed in their unwavering eye contact. The campaign battle is equally thrilling. Yang Won-dae, Ha Yu-kyung, and Park Ji-hoon, who are using the campaign slogan 'small changes make a big school,' raise curiosity about their strategies to win.

Meanwhile, the serious appearance of the Kwak Sang-hyun camp, who are clasping their hands and waiting for the election results, also raises tension. The election slogan 'only one only you, choose me tightly, Kwak Sang-hyun' is notably different from Yang Won-dae's camp. Attention is focused on who will be the one to smile at the end of this election battle, completed with the passion of the six candidates and the supporting students in their respective camps.

The production team of 'Running Mate' said, 'We portrayed how complex the emotions and choices of teenagers can be through a war-like election held in school. The characters' conflicting and wavering appearances at each moment of choice will resonate and immerse viewers.' They added, 'The energy of the unique new actors and their vibrant chemistry amplified the unique enjoyment of this high-teen political drama. Please watch the stories of growth and relationships beyond just simple victories and defeats.'

Meanwhile, the Tving Original 'Running Mate' will be fully released today, the 19th (Thursday), on Tving.
