The story of LUCA is based on Charles Darwin’s claim of all living things have one common ancestor. The story, which incorporates genetics, is a theme that is unfamiliar to Korean dramas. The drama will be written by Chun Sung Il, who wrote Chuno, Fugitive Plan B, The Package, and more. Kim Hong Sun PD directed Voice 1, Black, and The Guest. Ji Chang Wook and Kim Hong Sun have also previously worked together in Warrior Baek Dong Soo.
LUCA is planned to have 12 episodes and is expected to air on tvN. It is planned to be aired in early or mid 2020.
