This was described to me as Succession, but make it about a K-Beauty brand. That got my attention! Jia Song is a young, ambitious lawyer. She’s the daughter of Korean bodega owners and has always had a taste for the finer things in life. She’s already made junior partner at her firm and is about to score the Birkin bag of her dreams. Things get even more exciting when a high-profile case is dropped in her lap. She might be able to fast-track herself to senior partner before hitting 35. The Park family is imploding and needs Jia (and her firm’s!) help. The family’s net worth is estimated at a billion dollars, with a super successful Korean beauty brand that has dominated the beauty world for over twenty years. Except: the family patriarch has left his dying wife, absconding with a much younger woman, and (we think!) hiding the family fortune. The three adult children can’t stop fighting and hire Jia to help. It’s her job to figure out where Seven (the father) has hidden the money. Jia finds herself immersed in a world of private jets and terrible behavior ans she and the three Park siblings race to make things right. Dark secrets emerge, and Jia must decide what is important to her.
