Here we go again: We have a brand new K-drama obsession and it is none other than Start-Up. The drama revolves around big dreamers in the tech industry who all want to make it to the top of Sand Box, Start-Up's fictionalized version of Silicon Valley. We're only two episodes in, but the storyline and its amazing cast already gripped our hearts. So, before we get a fresh batch of eps this weekend, get to know the actors more by following them on Insta!
