Netflix added 100 Days of Deception to its October schedule on October 10, 2026. The Korean historical drama follows a skilled pickpocket in colonial-era Gyeongseong whose attempt to infiltrate the Japanese colonial government turns into a dangerous personal and political mission.
What is 100 Days of Deception about?
According to Netflix’s official title page, the protagonist goes undercover to steal government secrets while pursuing freedom, but develops romantic feelings for the son of the person she targets. The premise combines intrigue, historical conflict and romance, positioning the show for viewers interested in Korean period dramas and political thrillers.
Cast and creators confirmed by Netflix
Netflix identifies Kim You-jung, Park Jin-young and Kim Hyun-joo among the leading cast. Its title page credits Yoo In-sik, Rheu Bo-ri and Kim Youn-jin as creators. The release is presented as a Korean period drama, rather than a documentary retelling of specific historical incidents.
Why the Netflix release matters
International streaming gives regional productions a possible route to audiences far beyond their domestic television market. This title brings a genre mix that can appeal to viewers who follow Korean historical fiction as well as more conventional suspense series. That potential does not establish rankings or global viewing totals: Netflix has not provided performance figures in the release listing used here.
