tvN prepares to touch our hearts with its next drama Love, Take Twoa bittersweet comedy that explores the complex relationship between a single mother and her adult daughter. With Yum Jung-ah (SKY Castle), Choi Yoon-ji (Resident playbook), Park Hae-joon (When life gives you tangerine) and Kim Min-kyu (Bitch x rich 2) in the cast, this drama promises to be tender, funny and deeply human.
A new life in the country
Love, Take Two follows the daily lives of Lee Ji-an (Yum Jung-ah), a 43-year-old single mother, and her 23-year-old daughter, Lee Hyo-ri (Choi Yoon-ji), a medical student. Together, they leave the city for the countrysideBut the change of scenery isn't enough to ease the tension. But a change of scenery isn't enough to erase tensions: between generational disputes, well-kept secrets and repressed feelings, their mother-daughter relationship is about to be put to the test.
The latest teaser unveiled sets the tone: Ji An, free-spirited and impulsive, sings karaoke, visibly drunk, while her daughter, more composed and reserved, seems overwhelmed by her mother's behavior. The situation comes to a head when Hyo Ri confesses that she has dropped out of school, revealing an inner pain that her mother struggles to understand.
Two intergenerational duets and lots of emotion
The drama also features another father-son relationship : Ryu Jung-seok (Park Hae-joon)a calm-tempered architect, and his son Ryu Bo-hyun (Kim Min-kyu), owner of a flower farm. They, too, live in the countryside, their tranquil existence soon shaken by the arrival of Ji An and Hyo Ri. The interactions between these two families give rise to some funny, touching and introspective moments.
In a series of recently unveiled photos, we discover Ji An and Hyo Ri sitting side by sidewithout looking at each other, symbolizing the emotional distance between them. In parallel, Jung Seok and Bo Hyun display a silent complicity, mixed with a certain paternal discomfort, reinforcing the depth of the story.
Sincere chemistry between the actors
The actors shared their experiences on the set with great emotion. Yum Jung-ah praised Choi Yoon-ji's freshness and sincerity, saying: "She's beautiful, pure, and works very seriously. I'm convinced she'll get a lot of love from the public."
Choi Yoon-ji, touched, confided: "Shooting with Yum Jung-ah was like living with a real mother. She always made me feel at ease. This experience will stay with me forever."
On the men's side, Park Hae-joon described Kim Min-kyu as "adorable, sincere, and perfectly in tune with her character"while Kim Min-kyu expressed his gratitude for the advice he received backstage: "He invited me into his room to help me rehearse, a moment I'll never forget."
Love, Take Two will begin broadcasting on August 4, 8:50pm (KST) on tvN. A perfect drama for those who love intergenerational stories, edgy emotions and flawed but terribly human characters.
