Netflix’s ‘Cashero’: Lee Junho Leads New Superhero Comedy

Netflix has officially announced the global release date for its highly anticipated new series, “Cashero,” set for December 26, 2025. The upcoming Korean drama, a unique superhero comedy based on a popular webtoon, stars Lee Junho in a role that redefines the genre.

A Hero’s Worth: The Unique Premise of ‘Cashero’

The plot of “Cashero” centers on Sangung (Lee Junho), an ordinary civil servant diligently saving money for his wedding. His life takes an extraordinary turn when he gains a superpower: his physical strength increases proportionally to the amount of cash he possesses. This creates a deeply relatable and comedic dilemma for the new hero. The series explores the concept of a “salty” (짠내) hero, forced to choose between using his powers for good—which literally costs him money—and securing his own financial future. The tagline, “My Money, My Power Cash Hero,” perfectly encapsulates this central conflict of the webtoon adaptation, promising a story that is both humorous and poignant.
