◇Spoilers below.
The original work is the Korean hit "SKY Castle: Wives of the Upper Class" (2018-19). It depicts the slushfest of wives living in the upscale residential area of Sky Castle, competing for promotion for their husbands who work at a hospital, and the exam wars for their children.
One day, some time after Miku (Tamaki Sora) fell to her death, the police investigation, which had been turning its suspicions towards Sae's (Matsushita Nao) eldest daughter Ruri (Arai Miu), takes a turn. Suddenly, a "witness" appears, and Minamisawa Aoba (Sakamoto Manato), who was close to Miku, is arrested on suspicion of injury resulting in death.
Aoba's parents, Izumi (Kimura Fumino) and Kouhei (Otani Ryohei), work single-mindedly to prove their son's innocence. For their neighbors who are in a difficult situation, Sae, Kyoko (Higa Manami), and Misaki (Takahashi Maryjun) join forces to track down the unidentified witness and try to get to the truth.
Just then, Kujo (Koyuki), an exam coordinator who continues to work behind the scenes, tells Sae, "If you save Aoba, Ruri will become a suspect again," which leaves Sae in a state of intense conflict. Meanwhile, Izumi, unaware that Sae had secretly destroyed Miku's cell phone, begins searching for it, which is thought to contain clues to the real culprit.
Who killed Miku? And Kujo's true identity is revealed. What future awaits these celebrity wives and their families who have fought tooth and nail to protect their children?
