Though Youtube has already served as major platform for the promotion of K-pop, K-drama, and any other media under the Hallyu wave, for a wider global audience, it is the first time to officially air an original Youtube production of K-drama. K-idols such as Cha Eun Woo and other rising stars including Seo Eun Soo, Ahn Hyo Seop, Jeong Yuan, and Bang Jae Min are included among this cast that has caught the attention of many fans and critics.

Top Management tells the story of young, passionate, visionary manager, Eun Sung (Seo Eun Soo), who comes to meet a hopeless amalgamate of artists: an idol group at its wit's end, a singer-songwriter without direction, and a pessimistic trainee. The drama tells the story of how they come to meet and the surprising turn of events that occur when they all come together. Top Management invites its audience into the world of K-pop in a way that is more candid and dynamic than ever before.

This soon-to-be-aired K-drama shows other promising features besides a high-profile cast. On top of guaranteed visual aesthetics, this show additionally promises the highest quality music, with an OST album that has recently been revealed to include collaborators and features from big name artists such as Taeyang and G-dragon, foreign artists Da beat freakz and Japan's EXILE, all the way to debuting artists which among them are the show's very own rapper, Bang Jae Min, who contributes to the soundtrack with his original compositions.
