Singer and actor Cha Eun-woo's Netflix new work "Wonderfuls" will begin its official schedule starting with a production presentation on May 12.

On the 17th, OSEN reported that Netflix's new series "Wonderfuls" will hold an official production presentation at a location in Seoul on May 12 to introduce the work for the first time. Director Yoo In-sik and lead actors Park Eunbin, Kim Hae-sook, Choi Dae-hoon, Lim Seong-jae, Son Hyunjoo and others are expected to attend. However, Cha Eun-woo, who recently was engulfed in public controversy over allegations of 20 billion won in tax evasion, will not attend because he is serving in the military.

Earlier, there was speculation that "Won't the release of the work be delayed?" because of lead actor Cha Eun-woo's alleged tax evasion. However, to avoid schedule disruptions, the release originally planned for the second quarter was decided. After holding the production presentation on May 12, the work is scheduled to be opened to more than 190 countries worldwide on the afternoon of the 15th.

Before enlisting in July last year, Cha Eun-woo underwent an intensive investigation by the Seoul Regional Tax Service's Investigation Division 4 on charges of tax evasion and was notified of a tax reassessment exceeding 20 billion won. This is the largest reassessment imposed on an entertainer to date. After being notified of a reassessment exceeding 20 billion won, Cha Eun-woo's side filed a "pre-taxation admissibility review" contesting the tax authority's decision.

Originally the tax authority's investigation targeted the agency Fantagio, but controversy arose when A corporation, an eel restaurant run by Cha Eun-woo's mother, was identified in the process. As a result, Fantagio was notified of a tax reassessment of 8.2 billion won, and A corporation including Cha Eun-woo was notified of 20 billion won in tax reassessment. Cha Eun-woo is reported to have hired a major law firm to respond.

Meanwhile, "Wonderfuls" is a supernatural comic action adventure about a group of bunglers in a neighborhood who gain superpowers through an unexpected event in 1999, when apocalypticism was on the rise, and fight villains threatening the peace of Haesung City. Yoo In-sik, director of "Extraordinary Attorney Woo," directs, and screenwriter Heo Da-jung, who adapted "Extreme Job," wrote the script. Park Eunbin plays Eun Chaeni, who unexpectedly gets caught up in an incident and suddenly acquires superpowers, and Cha Eun-woo plays Lee Un-jeong, a special hire civil servant of Haesung City who approaches a series of disappearances with suspicion.
