Heard It Through the Grapevine (Hangul: 풍문으로 들었소; RR: Pungmuneuro Deoreotso) is a 2015 South Korean television series starring Yoo Jun-sang, Yoo Ho-jeong, Go Ah-sung, and Lee Joon. It aired on SBS from February 23 to June 2, 2015 on Mondays and Tuesdays at 21:55 for 30 episodes.
Heard It Through the Grapevine is a black comedy that satirizes the presumptuous and materialistic ideas by the top upper class in Korea, who are indulged in imperialistic power and thrive on inherited wealth and lineage.
Han Jeong-ho (Yoo Jun-sang), and Choi Yeon-hee (Yoo Ho-jeong), are a wealthy couple from a prestigious family. Their reputation is suddenly turned upside down because their teenage son, Han In-sang (Lee Joon), impregnates his girlfriend from an ordinary family, Seo Bom (Go Ah-sung). Bom is determined to endure being isolated from her own family and humiliation from her in-laws for the sake of her child's future, while In-sang struggles between his love for Bom and his family's high expectations.
