The situation
Park Eun Bin and Yang Se Jong are set to star in the upcoming tvN drama "Spooky in Love", an investigative occult romance drama about a hotel heiress who can see ghosts and a passionate prosecutor. The drama follows their unlikely alliance as they team up to solve cases. Park Eun Bin plays Cheon Yeo Ri, a chaebol heiress with the ability to see and hear ghosts, while Yang Se Jong plays Ma Gang Wook, a tenacious prosecutor who fears ghosts.
What the internet did with it
- Netizens on Theqoo are generally unbothered, with some commenting on the unusual premise of the drama, saying it's a bit *_사이다_* (refreshing) to see something different.
- The drama is a remake of the 2011 film "Spellbound", which might raise some expectations for fans of the original.
- — "I'm looking forward to seeing how they balance the romance and mystery elements, hopefully it won't be too *_답답해_* (frustrating) to watch"
The open question
The real test will be how well the drama balances its investigative and romantic plotlines, and whether the chemistry between Park Eun Bin and Yang Se Jong will be enough to carry the show. The premiere date is set for July 18, but the question remains whether the show will live up to its promising premise.
