The South Korean drama To The Moon will premiere on MBC on Friday night, telling the story of three low-income office workers who participate in cryptocurrency investment during the 2017–2018 craze. Based on the bestselling novel of 2021, the film depicts the market boom when regulations were still loose, with media coverage highlighting students and retirees investing their savings in cryptocurrency.

At the press conference, actress Ra Mi-ran revealed that she once bought 500,000 KRW (360 USD) Ethereum but has kept it until now because she doesn't know how to withdraw it, humorously stating that she will wait until it reaches 500 million KRW. Director Oh Da-young affirmed that the film is realistic, does not encourage speculation, and combines elements of humor and romance.

The main cast includes Lee Sun-bin, Jo A-ram, Ra Mi-ran, and Kim Young-dae. In that context, the South Korean cryptocurrency market continues to grow strongly with a trading volume of over 3.15 billion USD per day.
