How Lee Soo Hyuk's S Line went from a steamy K-drama to internet's red-thread obsession — now linking way more than just lovers
If you've been scrolling through Instagram lately and noticed glowing red lines floating above people's heads, sometimes even connecting them to others, you're not alone. These mysterious visuals are inspired by the new K-drama S Line, starring Lee Soo Hyuk of Doom at Your Service and Tomorrow fame.

The red line trend is inspired by the new K-drama S Line The trend blowing up across social media traces back to the Korean thriller S Line, which started streaming on Wavve in July 2025. The show follows Lee Gyu Jin (Lee Da Hee), a woman who suddenly begins to see glowing red threads, called S Lines, connecting people who've had sexual relationships. Things take a wild turn when a mysterious pair of glasses is introduced, allowing others to see these lines too. In a society where discretion is everything, the fallout is immediate and intense. A big part of the trend's appeal lies in its layered symbolism. The red lines represent invisible sexual bonds, sparking conversations about privacy, shame, and societal pressure. At the same time, the plot keeps things gripping, as Gyu Jin teams up with Detective Han Ji Uk (Lee Soo Hyuk) to track down whoever is behind the glasses. The drama is based on Little Bee's hit webtoon of the same name, which already had a loyal following—now amplified by the show's moody visuals and bold premise.
