Yeonwoo, Kim Hyun Jin, Jo Yun Seo, And Choi Byung Chan Display Contrasting Views On Love In Posters For “Love Phobia”
U+tv’s upcoming drama “Love Phobia” has shared posters of Yeonwoo, Kim Hyun Jin, Jo Yun Seo, and Choi Byung Chan! “Love Phobia” tells the story of Han Sun Ho (Kim Hyun Jin), a romance novelist who is deeply in tune with his emotions, and Yoon Bi Ah (Yeonwoo), the emotionally detached CEO of the AI-powered dating app “It’s You.” When their paths cross, they slowly begin to understand each other and embark on a journey to find love. The character posters highlight the four distinct charms of Yeonwoo as Yoon Bi Ah, Kim Hyun Jin as Han Sun Ho, Jo Yun Seo as Seol Jae Hee, and Choi Byung Chan as Han Baek Ho. Set against a pink-toned mood that seems to evoke love at first glance, the posters blend each character’s individuality while teasing the drama’s unique romantic narrative. First, Yoon Bi Ah, the CEO of the AI dating app “It’s You,” is dressed in a neat suit and wearing a relaxed smile. Holding a watch, beside her is the phrase, “Fate? Love? Just a waste of emotional energy,” revealing her cold, rational outlook on love. As she prioritizes efficiency over emotions, curiosity grows over how her structured life will change when she meets Han Sun Ho, a man overflowing with sensitivity. Han Sun Ho, nicknamed “the idol of the romance novel world,” exudes a free-spirited vibe in denim styling—completely opposite to Yoon Bi Ah’s perfectly tailored image. The phrase, “Love isn’t something you can calculate,” highlights the stark contrast between their personalities. Can the romantic novelist, who has captured readers’ hearts through his writing, melt Yoon Bi Ah’s frozen heart? Next, Seol Jae Hee, Yoon Bi Ah’s closest friend and co-CEO of “It’s You,” exudes lovely charm in her poster. However, the phrase, “My love is the right answer—I am the right answer,” contrasts with her bright smile, hinting at a colder, hidden side. Curiosity is rising about what unexpected traits Seol Jae Hee will reveal amid the uneasy coexistence between “It’s You” and “HAN Agency,” which come together for unknown reasons. Lastly, Choi Byung Chan radiates lively energy as Han Baek Ho, the director of “HAN Agency” and Han Sun Ho’s twin younger brother. His sly expression while sitting before stacks of cash, paired with the phrase, “Love may betray you, but money never will,” wittily captures his realistic personality. Behind Han Baek Ho’s cheerful appearance, intrigue grows over what hidden story he may be carrying. “Love Phobia” is set to premiere on February 19 at 11 p.m. KST.
Jeon Seok Ho Is Yoo Yeon Seok’s Devoted Brother-In-Law Who Gets Swept Into His Ghost Cases In “Phantom Lawyer”
SBS’s upcoming Friday-Saturday drama “Phantom Lawyer” has unveiled the first stills of Jeon Seok Ho in character! “Phantom Lawyer” is a quirky yet heartwarming legal drama that follows Shin Yi Rang (Yoo Yeon Seok), a lawyer who can see ghosts, and elite attorney Han Na Hyun (Esom) as they resolve the lingering grievances of their very unusual clients—ghosts—through the law. Jeon Seok Ho plays Yoon Bong Soo, Shin Yi Rang’s brother-in-law and the office manager of the Shin Yi Rang Law Office. The newly released stills capture the dramatic life transformation of Yoon Bong Soo. He works as an employee at the “Dugeun Dugeun Butcher Restaurant,” run by Shin Yi Rang’s mother Park Kyung Hwa (Kim Mi Kyung), while also working as an extra actor. He is a romantic husband devoted to his wife and a loving father who inspires his daughter’s dreams. Wearing a butcher shop apron and flashing a bright smile while giving a cheerful thumbs-up, he clearly embodies the image of a happy family man. Notably, his extensive everyday knowledge—gained from having taken on countless different jobs for the sake of realistic acting—finally comes into play after he becomes the law office’s manager. However, his daily life takes a dramatic turn once he begins working alongside his spirit-possessed brother-in-law. Subsequent stills hint at this shift, showing him kneeling in fear, suggesting that he has been caught up in an unexpected and chaotic incident. The sharp contrast with his previously peaceful life heightens curiosity about the turbulent events awaiting him. Unlike Shin Yi Rang, Yoon Bong Soo cannot see ghosts, which adds another key point of interest. Thrown into the middle of the supernatural world, he is expected to form an exciting investigative partnership with the ghost-seeing lawyer, using his unexpectedly wide range of practical knowledge to help solve cases. “Phantom Lawyer” will premiere on March 13 at 9:50 p.m. KST.
Lee Mi Sook, Lee Sung Kyung, Han Ji Hyeon, And More Lead Korea’s Elite Fashion Powerhouse In “In Your Radiant Season”
The upcoming drama “In Your Radiant Season” has introduced the key figures at Nana Atelier! “In Your Radiant Season” tells the story of Sunwoo Chan (Chae Jong Hyeop), a man who lives each day like an exciting summer vacation, and Song Ha Ran (Lee Sung Kyung), a woman who has locked herself away as if life were a cold winter. The newly released stills capture the striking visuals of the figures leading Korea’s top fashion house Nana Atelier, centered around its head, Kim Nana (Lee Mi Sook). First, Kim Nana, a globally renowned fashion designer often called “Queen Nana,” radiates an overwhelming aura that transforms the atmosphere of any space she enters. Her signature look—neatly styled blonde hair, a tailored black suit, oversized sunglasses, and black coffee—perfectly reflects her identity. Having led the brand with uncompromising standards and a craftsman-like precision that allows not even a 0.1-inch margin of error, she has become such an absolute symbol within the company that employees refer to her as “the one and only law.” Song Ha Ran (Lee Sung Kyung), who attends meetings with an expressionless composure, is the chief designer who oversees every stage of production, from planning to runway direction. Like her restrained silhouettes and monochrome style, she possesses a no-frills charisma and is a results-driven, pragmatic leader. Having grown up under her grandmother’s relentless pursuit of perfection, Ha Ran’s relationship with Kim Nana will depict a layered dynamic between grandmother and granddaughter—one shaped not just by authority and hierarchy, but by the need to grow stronger to protect each other. Younger sister Song Ha Young (Han Ji Hyeon) is a junior designer on Design Team 1 and a prodigy who naturally embodies exceptional artistic sense and talent. With her free-spirited energy and candid personality, she energizes the team as both a hidden ace and mood maker. Ha Young, who once found joy in teasing COO Yeon Tae Seok (Kwon Hyuk), gradually begins to develop new feelings toward him as he quietly supports and comforts her after her mistakes. Yeon Tae Seok serves as the company’s reliable pillar. Always impeccably dressed in suits year-round, he oversees overall management as Kim Nana’s right-hand man. Starting as a part-time errand worker, he rose through the ranks as a driver and secretary before becoming COO, making him someone who understands Nana’s philosophy more deeply than anyone else. Although he appears to be a cold, principle-driven executive guided by systems and rules, his loyalty to Nana Atelier burns stronger than anyone’s. Design Team 1’s senior designer Jeremy (Jang Yong Won) stands out with his bold personality, eye-catching use of vivid colors, and daring styling. His contrasting approach to design frequently clashes with Ha Ran. Meanwhile, junior designer Baek Seung Gyu (Ki Hyun Woo) possesses a trendy physique and rigorous self-discipline. Despite making a seemingly light first impression, his sincere dedication to fashion adds a grounded and reliable presence to the team. Adding even more color to the group are Jeon Poo Reum (Lee Seung Yeon) and Kim Sol (Yoon Chae Bin). Poo Reum quietly takes care of the team, while Gen Z intern Sol—armed with quick execution skills and sharp instincts—acts as an observant figure who is often the first to notice unfolding incidents and budding romances, bringing lively energy to the drama. Key points to watch include the glamorous runways and intricate design processes created by characters balancing tradition and modernity, the clash between master craftsmanship and youthful ambition, and the personal stories each character carries. “In Your Radiant Season” premieres on February 20 at 9:50 p.m. KST.
Jung Eun Chae Makes Bold Move Toward Alliance With Yeon Woo Jin To Reclaim Her Law Firm In “Honour”
Jung Eun Chae will make a decisive gamble to reclaim her law firm in ENA’s “Honour”! Based on a Swedish series, “Honour” is a mystery thriller that tells the story of three lawyers who confront a massive scandal from the past head-on. Lee Na Young, Jung Eun Chae, and Lee Chung Ah star as founding partners of the law firm L&J (Listen and Join), which specializes in representing victims of crimes against women. Spoilers In the previous episode, Kang Shin Jae (Jung Eun Chae) was stripped of her position as head of L&J. Despite it being revealed that her life mentor and vice chairman of the parent company Haeil, Kwon Joong Hyun (Lee Hae Young), was a user of the secret prostitution app “Connect In,” he was appointed as the firm’s new head and even declared plans to change the law firm’s identity. His decision to stop taking on cases involving female victims directly challenged Kang Shin Jae’s core beliefs. Enraged, Kang Shin Jae sought out Haeil’s chairwoman and her mother, Sung Tae Im (Kim Mi Sook). However, she instead found Baek Tae Joo (Yeon Woo Jin), CEO of IT company The Prime, hosting a presentation event. To make matters worse, rumors of Kang Shin Jae and Baek Tae Joo’s engagement—framed under the sensational headline of a partnership between big tech and a major law firm—spread rapidly, drawing intense media attention. Although Baek Tae Joo denied the engagement rumors, he sparked further controversy by unexpectedly confessing, “It’s true that I have feelings for her.” He also made a cryptic proposal to Kang Shin Jae. Noticing her anger toward him for siding with her mother, Baek Tae Joo revealed his true intentions, saying, “My feelings are genuine,” and suggesting she “change her perspective,” adding that he could become an ally who empowers her rather than an enemy supporting her mother. The newly released stills hint at a turning point in their relationship. In the previously released preview for Episode 6, Kang Shin Jae reveals to Sung Tae Im that Kwon Joong Hyun is a user of Connect In before seeking out Baek Tae Joo. Her unwavering gaze as she declares, “I’ve laid all my cards on the table. What do you want?” signals her readiness to make a no-turning-back move. Anticipation is rising over whether Kang Shin Jae’s alliance with Baek Tae Joo—the head of a major tech company—will become reality as she attempts to reclaim L&J and establish its independence from Haeil, as well as what kind of “big deal” may unfold between them. Another key point of interest is Sung Tae Im’s decision after learning of Kwon Joong Hyun’s involvement in a massive prostitution scandal. The revelation that a man she trusted as Haeil’s second-in-command not only coveted her position but was also entangled in a huge scandal could dramatically shift the balance of power. The production team commented, “Sung Tae Im’s decision after discovering the prostitution scandal will become a decisive factor that shakes Kang Shin Jae. Kang Shin Jae and Baek Tae Joo’s deal will be a crucial point to watch in ‘Honour’ moving forward.” Episode 6 of “Honour” will air on February 17 at 10 p.m. KST.
