The upcoming romantic drama, which will air in 2022, follows the story of employees working at the Korea Meteorological Administration, the country's national weather forecast service.

Aside from the two lead stars, "Meteorological Agency People: The Cruelty of Office Romance" cast also includes Yoon Park as the office crush Han Ki Joon, Girl's Day's Yura as weather reporter Chae Yoo Jin, Kim Mi Kyung as Park Min Young's mother and more.
The upcoming JTBC Kdrama reportedly began its production in the summer of 2021 and is expected to air early next year.
