Idol Drama Operation Team (Korean아이돌 드라마 공작단) was a 2017 South Korean web variety program. The program was presented through Naver TVCast and Naver V App every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 11:00 (KST), starting from May 29, 2017. Starting June 10, it was then aired on KBS Joy (KBS N) and KBS World. The show invited seven girl group members to create their very own Korean drama series by becoming accredited scriptwriters as well as acting in the series as fictional versions of themselves.

The drama they had worked on was named Let's Only Walk The Flower Road (꽃길만 걷자), an autobiographical drama. The first episode of the drama debuted on June 26, at 11:00 (KST) through Naver TVCast and Naver V App. It aired daily for 8 episodes until July 3, 2017.

On July 4, each member's full performances for The Five was revealed, as unrevealed scenes of the drama. Girls Next Door (옆집소녀), the group produced through the show, then made their official debut on Music Bank on July 14.[1]
