[The Fact | [Reporter Gong Mina] Actors Jung Hae-in and Jung So-min are expected to show their sweet chemistry in the drama 'Love Next Door'.
On the 19th, the production team of tvN's new Sat-Sun drama 'Love Next Door' (written by Shin Ha-eun, directed by Yoo Je-won) released two posters featuring Jung Hae-in and Jung So-min. The poster with a refreshing atmosphere foreshadows a change in the relationship between Choi Seung-hyo (Jung Hae-in) and Bae Seok-ryu (Jung So-min), who have been friends rather than opposite sexes.
'Love Next Door' is a romance between a woman trying to reboot her flawed life and her mother's friend's son, who is a living dark figure. The story of Choi Seung-hyo and Bae Seok-ryu, 'childhood men and women' who record each other's dark history, reunite at the crossroads of life brings pleasant laughter and warm excitement. Director Yoo Je-won and writer Shin Ha-eun, who reunited three years after 'Hometown Cha Cha Cha', are expected to continue the 'healing romantic comedy' lineage.
The released poster shows the playful smiles of Choi Seung-hyo and Bae Seok-ryu sitting on the steps of a neighborhood alley. They are two people who have passed their childhood and school days and are now standing in the middle of their lives, but when they are together, they become childish and lively, as if they have returned to their childhood.
In another poster, Choi Seung-hyo and Bae Seok-ryu face each other affectionately while holding a lollipop. The natural and comfortable appearance of the two people without any hesitation actually increases the excitement index of the viewers. Here, the phrase ‘You are mine, and I am your living dark history’ adds curiosity to their relationship.
Jung Hae-in plays the role of Choi Seung-hyo, whose appearance, personality, and abilities are all perfect. As the head of an architecture firm and a young architect who is attracting attention, his peaceful daily life changes with Bae Seok-ryu's comeback. Jung So-min takes on the role of Bae Seok-ryu, who was on a roll as a product manager at a global conglomerate when one day he suddenly decided to quit his flawed life and start a new one.
The production team said, “Jung Hae-in and Jung So-min transform into the ‘male friend’ and ‘female friend’ that everyone can dream of at least once. The realistic and unadorned acting of the two actors will add immersion to the characters’ relationship and narrative,” adding, “Choi Seung-hyo and Bae Seok-ryu “Please keep an eye on each other’s dark history recorded in their memories, and the new story that will be recorded after their reunion.”
‘Love Next Door’ will be broadcast for the first time on August 17th at 9:20 PM.
