SBS unveils its next romantic drama, Would You Marry Mewith a promising first teaser mixing humor, tenderness and pretense. Jung So-min and Choi Woo-shik form an unexpected couple... engaged in a 90-day marriage for a very special reason: to win a luxury home reserved for newlyweds.
A break-up, a fit of madness... and a meeting
Yoo Maryplayed by Jung So-min, is a spontaneous, outspoken entrepreneur who doesn't mince her words, even at business meetings. But everything changes when she discovers that her fiancé is cheating on her. Hurt, humiliated and slightly drunk, she has an unlikely encounter: Kim Woo-jooplayed by Choi Woo-shik, a gentle, discreet man... who just happens to have the same name as his ex.
In a mixture of pain and unexpected lucidity, Mary made him a direct proposal: "Will you be my husband?"
A fake wedding... but real thrills
What could have remained a joke becomes a real-life pact. Together, they'll have to pretend to be married for 90 days, in front of their entourage and institutions, in order to win a dream home. But can feelings be put aside when the chemistry is so palpable?
The teaser plunges us into their new life as fake spouses: photo shoots in wedding outfitstender gestures exchanged, knowing glances. Mary poses in her white dress against Woo Joo's shoulder, he in his tuxedo, hand on her waist. We see them sharing small, thoughtful gestures, like the moment when Woo Joo delicately tucks a lock of hair behind Mary's ear. It all seems real. Too real.
A duo we can't wait to meet again
With this first glimpse, Would You Marry Me promises to be a charming romantic comedy, carried by two major talents of the small screen. Jung So-min is back in a role that's both sparkling and moving, while Choi Woo-shik seduces us with her sweetness and accuracy. Their complicity is already shining through.
Broadcast scheduled for October 10 at 9:50pm (KST) on SBS (international broadcaster pending). A romance to keep an eye on for all fans of light, tender... and slightly crazy kdramas.
