Cast and Characters

Lee Dong-Wook stars as Noh Ki-jun, a skilled insurance actuary working in Plus Insurance's product development team. Having gone through three divorces, he has lost both his wallet and soul to failed marriages. However, he remains unapologetic about his experiences, openly embracing his past despite societal prejudice. Recognizing the rising divorce rates, he embarks on a bold mission to develop a divorce insurance product, believing that divorce is one of life's most unforeseen challenges.

Lee Joo-bin portrays Kang Han-deul, an insurance underwriter who finds a new sense of self after her own divorce. Once convinced that endurance was the key to a successful marriage, she reinvents herself post-divorce, joining Noh Ki-jun's team with her unique charm. Through her work in the development team, she gains the confidence to take charge of her life and forms an intriguing dynamic with Noh Ki-jun.

Lee Kwang-soo takes on the role of An Jeong-man, a cautious, safety-conscious individual who thrives on minimizing risks. As a risk surveyor, his job is to propose accident prevention strategies and optimize insurance programs. However, joining the divorce insurance project becomes the biggest leap of faith in his life. While he outwardly projects a laid-back attitude, he is, in reality, timid and uncertain. His journey with the team pushes him out of his comfort zone, leading him toward an unexpected personal transformation.

Lee Da-hee plays Jeon Na-rae, a pragmatic financial mathematician who evaluates everything from an investment standpoint. She struggled with the idea of committing entirely to one person, and due to conflicting values, she divorced immediately after her honeymoon. Confident and unwavering in her decisions, she has never looked back-until she joins Noh Ki-jun's team as a special advisory quant. Through this experience, she begins to see gradual yet meaningful changes in her perspective and life.
