In the opening episode, Woo Soo-bin arrives back in Korea determined to honor the promise he once made to Ju Yi-jae about collaborating on a film project. He presents her with the unfinished script for Gyeongseong Love Song and urges her to join him in bringing the story to life. Despite his enthusiasm, Ju Yi-jae responds with visible frustration and emotional distance.
The new stills highlight a shift in Woo Soo-bin’s approach as he fixes a much deeper, more sincere gaze upon Ju Yi-jae. This intense eye contact occurs at an incredibly close distance, creating an atmosphere thick with unspoken feelings and lingering tension. Such visuals effectively tease the evolving complexity of their relationship moving forward.
The production team, which has carefully crafted these scenes to deepen the emotional stakes between the characters, said: “The reason why Ju Yi-jae called Woo Soo-bin ‘my regret’ and the heartbreaking truth behind why they were forced to part ways 15 years ago will be revealed in the second episode. Please look forward to the story as Woo Soo-bin and Ju Yi-jae begin to write their dreams and love together.”
