It's a duo that fans have been eagerly awaiting: Suzy and Kim Woo-bin are finally reunited in a new series, "Genie, Make A Wishwhich goes on air on October 3rd. And the least we can say is that their new collaboration promises to be far more explosive than romantic... at least, at first glance.
In this drama with an original concept combining magic, darkness and romance, Kim Woo Bin embodies Geniea mysterious spirit who awakens from a thousand-year sleep to grant three wishes... but not without ulterior motives. Unlike Aladdin's gentle genie, this one seems to have a much darker agenda. His new mistress, Ga Young (played by Suzy), is a lonely young woman with antisocial personality disorder, who has no desire to make a wish.
The tone is set by the first teaser, which is both intriguing and disconcerting. In a tense exchange, Genie urges Ga Young to express her desires, but she remains unmoved. His icy retort: "Why are you so obsessed with these wishes?" is met with a chilling response from Genie: "Once your 3 wishes are granted and I'm free... I'll kill you." This promises to be an intense and unexpected dynamic.
The recently unveiled visual reinforces this tension. It shows the 2 characters in direct confrontation, like two predators ready to pounce, accompanied by a phrase as enigmatic as it is disturbing: "Three vows and a deadly bet." A slogan that perfectly sums up the dangerous contract between the two heroes.

Alongside them, a secondary character is likely to steal the show: Sadethe panther and travelling companion of the genius, played by Go Kyu-pilwarns from the outset: this genie is no ordinary creature, but an evil entity that could be described as... Satan.
A blend of fantasy, psychological thriller and high-voltage romance, "Genie, Make A Wish looks set to shake up the codes of traditional drama. The Suzy-Kim Woo Bin tandem, already accomplices in "Uncontrollably Fondventures into new territory, darker, riskier, but oh so promising.
Join us on October 3 on Netflix worldwide, to find out how far this dangerous game between vows, freedom... and revenge will take us.
