tvN has unveiled new posters for its upcoming romantic drama « Our Universe« highlighting the complex relationships that bind its main characters together. Bae In-hyuk, Roh Jeong-eui and Park Seo-ham find themselves at the heart of a love triangle as unexpected as it is delicate.
Our Universe tells the story of a brother-in-law and sister-in-law who, despite their conflicted beginnings, find themselves forced to live under the same roof in order to raise their 20-month-old nephew Woo Joo, following the sudden disappearance of their elders. A forced cohabitation that gradually brings out buried emotions... and complicates relationships.
Between love affairs and complex family ties
Bae In-hyuk plays the role of Sun Tae-hyung, a photographer's assistant with an abrupt character and cold appearance. Behind this shell, however, lies a man with a tender heart and recognized talent, to the point of arousing the jealousy of the main photographer. On his poster, the phrase «You're the child's aunt, nothing more, nothing less» illustrates the strict limits he imposes on himself. But his past, which he has never really overcome, resurfaces when he gets closer to Woo Hyun-jin and reunites with his older brother after sixteen years of separation.
Roh Jeong-eui portrays Woo Hyun-jin, a bright young woman about to enter the world of work, who aspires to a simple existence. She has always supported her older sister, the central figure in her life. Her poster poses a meaningful question: «Brother-in-law, are we strangers? Just take good care of the child, please». A sentence that hints at how her life could be turned upside down by sharing the daily life of Sun Tae-hyung and Woo Joo.
Park Seo-ham completes the triangle as Park Yoon-sung, Woo Hyun-jin's first love. Brilliant, seductive and self-assured, he shares with her a university past of feelings never fully acknowledged. Their reunion, this time as colleagues, awakens unfinished emotions. The text on her poster («So he's neither your child nor your boyfriend?») raises the question of the disruptive role he will play in this already fragile relationship.
The production team said, «An unexpected love triangle will develop in an interesting way between Sun Tae-hyung and Woo Hyun-jin, bound by their status as brothers-in-law, and Park Yoon-sung, Hyun-jin's first love who suddenly reappears in their lives.» A promising dynamic that relies as much on emotions as on tough choices.
Between living together, family responsibilities and conflicting feelings, Our Universe promises to be a bittersweet romance where every relationship is put to the test.
Our Universe will be broadcast from February 4, 10:40pm (KST) on tvN (awaiting international distribution).
