Produced by PCCW Media and SK Global, the revenge drama unfolds as the wealthy and privileged gather during the Hong Kong's boating season.
Synopsis
The Season unfolds during Hong Kong’s high society summer, where connections are everything, and nothing is quite as it seems. At the center is the Hext family, an old-money institution that rules the city’s elite through yacht parties, horse races, and charity galas – while secrets and scandals simmer beneath the surface.
Into this world steps Cola, a newcomer with a hidden agenda. As rivalries ignite and alliances turn lethal, the season builds to a climactic reckoning that threatens to shatter the fabric of high society.[2]
