What Season 1 of The Silent Sea
In the near future, Earth suffers extreme desertification, and drinking water is rationed under very strict rules. Scientist Song Ji-an, played by Bae Doona, is part of an elite team handpicked to travel to the Moon. Their destination is Balhae Base, an abandoned research station where her sister worked five years earlier, when a serious incident occurred. The group, led by Gong Yoo, must obtain a mysterious sample with limited information. Meanwhile, Ji-an wants to know what really happened that day.
