One Unforgettable Night in an Unfamiliar Place Shakes Everyday Life to Its Core in Netflix's New Series 'The Facade of Love'
Netflix has confirmed production of The Facade of Love, a new series led by Lee Dong-wook, Jeon So-nee, Jung Yu-mi and Lee Jong-won. Directed by Mo Wan-il (The World of the Married, The Frog) and written by Ha Su-jin (The Matchmakers, Sell Your Haunted House), the series asks what happens when one night outside of your normal routine cracks open everything you thought was solid.
TheFacade of Love begins when Ji-hun and Hu-kyung, two strangers far from home, spend an unforgettable night together in an unfamiliar place. Both know that once they return to Korea, life is supposed to go back to normal. But the connection they share follows them home and small cracks begin to appear, slowly upending the lives of four people.
Mo Wan-il, known for his sharp eye for emotional detail and tension-filled storytelling, brings that sensibility to a story where the real drama unfolds not in big declarations, but in the quiet fractures of everyday life. Paired with Ha Su-jin's grounded, character-driven writing, the series follows how attraction turns into consequence, and how one choice can ripple through a marriage, a family and a life carefully built on appearances.
The casting lineup adds to the anticipation:
* Lee Dong-wook plays Ji-hun, a character pulled between what he feels and what he thinks is right. Known for shifting seamlessly across genres in titles like Guardian: The Lonely and Great God, Hell Is Other People and Tale of the Nine Tailed, he brings his profound emotional depth to the role.
* Jeon So-nee plays Hu-kyung, the woman who unexpectedly becomes the axis of Ji-hun's emotional upheaval. After delivering nuanced performances in Parasyte: The Grey, Melo Movie and As You Stood By, she embodies a quiet intensity in a mysterious character who is both anchor and catalyst.
* Jung Yu-mi plays Sun-hee, Ji-hun's wife. Starring in The School Nurse Files, Sleep, Love Your Enemy, Live, Discovery of Love, Sleep, Kim Ji-young, Born 1982, and Train to Busan, Jung Yu-mi is known for making internal conflict feel deeply real -- a strength she brings to a woman confronted with a shocking truth.
* Lee Jong-won plays Dae-hee, Sun-hee's younger brother, who becomes entangled with Hu-kyung in ways no one expects. A fast-rising star from Brewing Love, Knight Flower, The Golden Spoon and Salmokji: Whispering Water, he adds a unique energy to the ensemble.
As their relationships knot together, The Facade of Love peels back what lies beneath the polished surfaces of their lives: desire, guilt, hurt and the gap between the stories we tell ourselves and the truths we can't escape.
The Facade of Love will premiere exclusively on Netflix.

Made in New Jersey: Dan Levy's New Comedy 'Big Mistakes' Makes a Big Impact
Trouble's afoot (onscreen) in the Garden State.
Big Mistakes, our new comedy series co-created, executive produced, written and starring Emmy(R) winner Dan Levy, was filmed primarily in New Jersey, which also serves as the backdrop for the comedic family saga within a high-stakes crime thriller.
The show follows Nicky (Levy) and Morgan (New Jersey native Taylor Ortega), two deeply incapable siblingswho are in over their heads when a misguided theft for their dying grandmother accidentally pulls them into the world of organized crime. Blackmailed into increasingly dangerous assignments, they clumsily fail upwards, sinking deeper into chaos they're ill-equipped to handle.
"It was surreal getting to film in my home state," Ortega said. "I grew up in New Jersey and was obsessed with film and television and never thought I'd be returning home for such a major project and moment in my life."
During the 46-day shoot, Big Mistakes employed 300 cast and crew, worked with more than 500 vendors and filmed at over 40 locations. "I've really enjoyed shooting in New Jersey," said location manager Mia Thompson. "We have quite a number of recurring locations that have all just been wonderful -- not only the home owners, but the business owners, the towns, the local police, the local fire departments, the town clerks. It's been a really great experience."
These local businesses include Edison Millwork & Hardware, a more than 50-year-old family-owned hardware store much like the role it played on the show: the long-running Morelli's Hardware, run by Nicky and Morgan's mom, played by Laurie Metcalf. "It's one of the few mom and pop hardware stores that are left anywhere, really, so it was really great to find this location that fits very perfectly with our story," said Thompson.
Another frequent scene stealer is Wyoming Presbyterian Church in Millburn, which served as the backdrop for Nicky's day job and living space. "We've utilized every inch of space of that church inside and out," said Thompson. "They've enjoyed the experience just as much as we have."
Other locations included the Deerfield School, Essex County Airport, Fosterfields Living Historical Farm, Hatfield Swamp, Wyoming Presbyterian Church, Springfield Municipal Building, and the Crystal Inn in Eatontown, just a stone's throw away from our forthcoming studio space at Fort Monmouth.
Production cast a wide net in New Jersey, filming in numerous towns and cities across the state such as Caldwell, Cranford, Franklin Lakes, Irvington, Jersey City, Union, Warren and Weehawken.
"One thing about New Jersey is that it's so diverse. The various neighborhoods offer different kinds of looks and aesthetics," said Thompson about filming in both urban and suburban areas of the Garden State. "You have everything that you could ask for."
Although Big Mistakes shot all over New Jersey, the crew worked hard to make production on Season 1 sustainable. By using cleantech, including a battery hybrid unit at basecamp, small batteries, some battery electric trailers, and tying into the electricity grid, the production's overall generator fuel use was reduced by 25% compared to what would have been used without clean mobile power. Electric vehicles and hybrids contributed to fuel reductions, and EV's were supported by mobile charging at basecamp. Renewable diesel was used during production, which further reduced carbon emissions. During Season 1, production also donated over 3,700 pounds of food.
Big Mistakes, which debuted on the Global Top 10 English TV List this week, is just the first of several upcoming Netflix projects that were filmed in New Jersey, including 72 Hours; Here Comes the Flood; Little Brother; Office Romance; Rabbit, Rabbit; The Whisper Man; and Roommates, out this Friday.
Big Mistakes Season 1 is available now -- only on Netflix.

Sixth Circuit Points Out Limits of NLRB Adjudicatory Rulemaking
At a Glance
* For nearly 50 years, the Supreme Court's decision in NLRB v. Gissel Packing Co. governed when the Board could issue a bargaining order despite a union's election loss.
* In 2023, the Board departed from Gissel in Cemex by making bargaining orders the default remedy when employer unfair laborpractices require setting aside an election.
* As the first federal court of appeals to review a Cemex bargaining order, the Sixth Circuit denied enforcement 2-1 on the ground that Cemex was an improper exercise of the Board's adjudicatory authority.
*
In Brown-Forman v. NLRB, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit became the first federal circuit court to review the National Labor Relations Board's recent Cemex decision. The court found the Board engaged in improper rulemaking when it altered decades of precedent by mandating a bargaining order whenever the employer commits unfair labor practices (ULPs) that require setting aside a union election.
The Precedent: Gissel Bargaining Orders
For nearly 50 years, NLRB v. Gissel Packing Co., 395 U.S. 575 (1969), set the standard to be used by the Board when considering whether to impose a bargaining order after a union lost an election. In Gissel, the Supreme Court held that a bargaining order was an extraordinary remedy, but could be issued when an employer's ULPs made it unlikely that employees could express their free choice through a re-run election. Under Gissel, a bargaining order could be issued in two circumstances: (i) when an employer engaged in extraordinary ULPs; and (ii) in less extraordinary cases if the employer's practices still had the "tendency to undermine majority strength and impede the election processes."
The Change: Cemex Bargaining Orders
In 2023, the Board changed its approach to issuing bargaining orders. In Cemex Construction Materials Pacific, LLC, 372 NLRB No. 130 (Aug. 25, 2023), the union alleged the employer committed ULPs before, during, and after the "critical period" of an election campaign, at a time when the labor organization held signed authorization cards from a majority of eligible voters. Based on these ULPs, the Board imposed a Gissel bargaining order on the employer. Critical to the Sixth Circuit in Brown-Forman, however, despite resolving the case based upon Gissel, the Board went on to make an "alternative holding" in which it promulgated a new rule for imposing bargaining orders.
As previously reported, the new Cemex bargaining order rule held that bargaining orders were no longer to be considered an extraordinary remedy available only when a fair election could no longer be held. Instead, bargaining orders became the de facto remedy whenever an employer commits ULPs that require the "setting aside [of an] election." In articulating this new approach, the Board reasoned that if the employer's ULPs prevented a fair election in the first instance, the result "necessarily fails to reflect the uncoerced choice of a majority of employees." Thus, the Board chose to remedy such situations by relying on the "prior designation of a representative by the majority of employees by nonelection means" and issue a bargaining order. This holding abandoned the 50-year-old Gissel rule, in a case where such a new rule was not necessary to impose an effective remedy.
The Sixth Circuit's Rejection of Cemex
On March 6, 2026, the Sixth Circuit became the first court of appeals to address Cemex. In a 2-1 decision, the Sixth Circuit held that, although the record supported the finding that the employer committed various ULPs during a union organizing drive, the bargaining order was improper because the Board entered that order "relying solely on the Cemex standard, which was created through an unlawful exercise of adjudicatory authority."
The majority explained that Congress empowered the Board with two avenues of policy-making authority: (1) formal notice and comment rulemaking; and (2) adjudication. The Board's rulemaking authority allows it to create rules necessary to carry out the provisions of the NLRA, and it must exercise that authority consistent with Administrative Procedure Act requirements. The Board must use rulemaking to promulgate rules of general applicability, and may use adjudication only to resolve specific disputes between specific parties, which can then be used as precedent in future cases. These parameters reflect "Congress's careful and intentional delegation of its legislative powers, establishing guardrails that protect the public's role in the policymaking process and maintain accountability over agency action."
Applying these principles, the Brown-Forman majority rejected the Board's use of its adjudicatory powers to create the Cemex framework. The majority determined that using adjudication rather than rulemaking to promulgate the Cemex bargaining order rule was improper because: (1) the Board did not consider case-specific facts of the contemporaneous adjudication and instead relied on its general observations that the Gissel rule had proved ineffective over several decades of application; (2) in the Cemex decision itself, the Board relied on Gissel to resolve the parties' dispute; and (3) the Board did not create the new Cemex standard in furtherance of resolving the parties' dispute, or to remedy the specific violations at issue. Rather, the Board stated that its new Cemex rule was intended to be a deterrent to future election-related ULPs. Given that the "the Board's adjudicatory authority is limited to resolving the dispute of the parties that stand before it," the majority held the Cemex standard was improperly created through adjudication rather than rulemaking. Thus, the court denied enforcement of the Board's Cemex bargaining order and remanded the case to the Board for further proceedings.
Impact of the Sixth Circuit's Decision
Unless the Board requests en banc review by the Sixth Circuit, or obtains Supreme Court review, the decision will be controlling law within the Sixth Circuit (Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, and Tennessee). Pursuant to the Board's doctrine of non-acquiescence, which affects its nationwide jurisdiction, the Board may continue to apply Cemex in future cases unless and until the Supreme Court rejects it./1
Despite possible non-compliance by the Board, Brown-Forman provides a clear procedural path for employers to challenge Cemex bargaining orders in other circuits in addition to challenging the Cemex decision on its merits.
Practical Takeaways for Employers
Here are some practical takeaways for employers:
* Preserve Arguments Challenging Cemex. Although the Sixth Circuit's rejection of Cemex bargaining orders is a welcome development for employers, the Board may continue to apply it in future cases. Employers should preserve all arguments that Cemex is wrongly decided, including that it is procedurally infirm, incompatible with the Supreme Court's Gissel decision, and contrary to the NLRA.
* The Board Could Bring Cemex Back to Life. It is important to remember that the Sixth's Circuit's decision is procedural, not substantive. The Board could revise the Cemex bargaining order rule by imposing it in response to a specific dispute between specific parties.
* Rely on the Sixth Circuit's Reasoning in Other Cases. The NLRB occasionally relies on adjudication to impose new rules prospectively and not in response to the specific parties and disputes before it. Employers should evaluate their cases before the Board to determine whether they can challenge such rules based on the Board's failure to adhere to rulemaking guardrails.
* Continue to Comply with Cemex's Election Procedures. The Sixth Circuit's decision did not impact Cemex's rules regarding union demands for recognition and the possible requirement to file an RM petition in response to same. Although the NLRB recently held there is no timeline for filing RM petitions,/2 employers should remain vigilant about these requirements.
* Focus on Compliance. Cemex bargaining orders remain a viable remedy outside the Sixth Circuit if the NLRB's general counsel decides to pursue such a remedy. As always, employers should avoid committing ULPs connected to union organizing activity, whether pre-petition or post-petition. Among other things, employers should consider training their leaders regarding the dos and don'ts during union organizing drives.
* * *
See Footnotes
1/ Not surprisingly, in a letter recently submitted to the Ninth Circuit, the Board disagreed that it exceeded its authority in promulgating the Cemex rule, asserted that its decision was derived from case specific facts, and, somewhat surprisingly, argued that the decision was not remedial in nature. Whether the Ninth Circuit will follow Brown Forman remains to be seen.
2/ In St. John's Coll., 374 NLRB No. 72, slip op. at 2-3 (Mar. 25, 2026), the Board clarified that "Cemex's timeliness requirements pertain only to when the filing of an RM petition may shield an employer from potential unfair labor practice liability under the Cemex framework. Thus, Cemex should not be construed to require the dismissal of an otherwise properly filed RM petition solely because it was not filed 'promptly' within the meaning of Cemex."

The April 7 announcement of Claude Mythos sent shockwaves through the cyber community, and for good reason: the program already identified thousands of vulnerabilitiesacross every major operating system and web browser, some of which had gone undetected for decades. At the same time, the company announced that over 50 technology and cybersecurity organizations would use Mythos to find and patch vulnerabilities in the world's most critical software products before adversaries can exploit them. Here's what businesses need to understand about this development and six steps you should take to get your cybersecurity house in order.
What is Claude Mythos, and how is it different from other AI models?
Claude Mythos sits well above Anthropic's current models and incorporates advanced agentic AI capabilities. It can autonomously plan, execute, and chain together complex multi-step tasks without human intervention.
Its cybersecurity capabilities are what distinguish it from every prior model. In pre-release testing, Anthropic found that Mythos Preview could not only identify undiscovered software vulnerabilities but also weaponize them. The model has already discovered thousands of high-severity zero-day vulnerabilities across every major operating system and web browser, including a 27-year-old bug in OpenBSD, a 16-year-old flaw in FFmpeg, and a memory-corrupting vulnerability in a memory-safe virtual machine monitor.
Essentially, this announcement means that AI has now crossed a threshold where it can outperform all but the most elite human hackers at finding and exploiting software vulnerabilities.
What is Project Glasswing?
Project Glasswing is Anthropic's initiative where over 50 companies (including Amazon Web Services, Apple, Broadcom, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Google, JPMorgan Chase, Microsoft, and Nvidia) will use Mythos Preview for defensive security work and share their findings with the wider industry. Anthropic is backing the project with $100 million in usage credits and has collected $4 million in direct donations to open-source security organizations.
The explicit purpose is to get ahead of the offensive use of Mythos-class tools before those tools reach adversaries. Anthropic has stated that the work of defending the world's cyber infrastructure may take years, while frontier AI capabilities are likely to advance substantially over just the next few months.
Why did Anthropic choose not to release Mythos publicly?
Citing the potential damage that could result from a wider public release, Anthropic released Mythos Preview only to a limited group of tech companies. It is the first time in nearly seven years that a leading AI company has so publicly withheld a model over safety concerns.
The specific concern is that Mythos enables autonomous, agentic cyberattacks at a scale and speed that defenders cannot currently match. Adversaries are already moving in this direction, and CrowdStrike's 2026 Global Threat Report found an 89% increase in attacks by adversaries using AI year-over-year.
Has AI already been used to conduct cyberattacks against real organizations?
Yes, and the documented cases are directly relevant to how businesses should be assessing their current risk exposure.
Anthropic has documented a case in which a Chinese state-sponsored group ran a coordinated campaign using Claude Code to infiltrate roughly 30 organizations - including tech companies, financial institutions, and government agencies, before the company detected it. Over the following 10 days, Anthropic investigated the full scope of the operation, banned the accounts involved, and notified affected organizations.
In November 2025, Anthropic blogged about what it described as the first reported AI-orchestrated cyber espionage campaign, in which attackers used AI's agentic capabilities not just as an advisor, but to execute the cyberattacks themselves.
What should businesses be doing right now?
Here are six steps you can take now to focus your efforts in light of this significant development:
1. Review your incident response plan for AI-attack scenarios. Most plans were not written with agentic AI attacks in mind. Map the specific scenario of an AI-orchestrated intrusion into your escalation workflows and pressure-test whether your team can detect, assess, and report within the 72-hour reporting window that will soon be required by federal CIRCIA rules.
2. Re-scope your third-party risk program. Vendor security addenda and questionnaires built around conventional patch timelines need to be updated. Mythos-class tools identify and exploit vulnerabilities in hours. "Reasonable" patching cadence language in your contracts may not be enforceable against that standard.
3. Audit your AI governance documentation. Board-level AI governance frameworks that focus only on responsible use of tools your organization deploys are incomplete. Governance programs should now explicitly address the risk that your AI deployments (or your vendors') can be manipulated or exploited by adversaries using comparable technology.
4. Review your cyber insurance policy terms. Confirm whether your policy language covers AI-orchestrated intrusions, autonomous exploit execution, and compressed attack timelines. Identify coverage gaps before an incident makes them consequential.
5. Review technology contracts governing AI tool deployments. Agreements for AI coding assistants, security platforms, and agentic workflow tools negotiated before mid-2025 were written without the Mythos risk framework in mind. You should review indemnification provisions, security warranty language, and liability caps against the new baseline.
6. Evaluate your detection and monitoring capabilities. You cannot report what you cannot see, and you cannot see an AI-accelerated attack with monitoring infrastructure designed for human-paced intrusions. Assess whether your current detection capability can identify the kind of lateral movement Mythos-class tools generate.
