More about The Wonder Fools
The Wonder Fools, formerly known as The B Team, is based on a concept originally developed by the legendary writer Stan Lee. Initially conceived six years ago, it explores the emergence of Asian superheroes. Despite Stan Lee's passing in 2018, his influence remains powerful within the comic community, continuing to inspire the foundation of this new and exciting drama.
In The B Team, Park Eun Bin will play Eun Chae Ni, the granddaughter of the Big Hand Restaurant owner. Eun Chae Ni is known for her intelligence, politeness, and strong work ethic. As she grows older, she becomes more determined and fearless in chasing her own dreams, often pushing boundaries and taking risks.
