Adult Trainee (Korean어른연습생) is a South Korean web series directed by Yoo Hak-chan and Jeong Hyeong-gun, starring Ryu Ui-hyun, Cho Mi-yeon, Jo Yoo-jung, Ryeoun, Kwon Young-eun and Kim Min-gi. The series depicts a pink comedy about Generation Z who have grown up.[1] This multi-part series was released on TVING starting with episodes "Jae-min" on November 12, "Yu-ra" on November 19 and "Na-eun" on November 26, 2021.

Synopsis

The series follows a group of young people and their struggles with love, and it's divided in three parts.

The first part tells the story of Jae-min (Ryu Ui-hyun), a student addicted to masturbation and accepts the "Stop Masturbation in a 100 Days Challenge" in order to confess to the girl he likes, Ye-kyung (Cho Mi-yeon).

The second part tells the story of Yu-ra (Jo Yoo-jung), a wannabe girl crush, but in reality, a naive and delicate religious girl who dreams of a dangerous and bizarre departure from her boyfriend, Nam-ho (Ryeoun). A fluttering change comes between the two as Nam-ho, a boy Yu-ra had no interest in, starts to look sexy at some point.

The third and last part is the story of the mysterious J, who appeared in front of Na-eun (Kwon Young-eun), an overweight girl who has never received anyone's attention, and thus decides to find J's identity.
