tvN’s next drama “Scary in love” is already generating buzz after revealing its energetic script reading session, led by Park Eun Bin alongside Yang Se Jong and Ong Seong Wu. With a mix of laughter, immersion and emotional exchanges, the first meeting hinted at a drama that balances romance with unsettling tension.
Park Eun Bin, who previously worked with Cha Eun Woo “Wonderful”, returns to the center of the story, taking on the role of Cheon Yeo Ri, a wealthy hotel heiress who secretly sees ghosts. While reading, she captured attention with her ability to convey both elegance and quiet solitude, subtly expressing a character who distances herself from the world through her unusual ability.
Opposite her, Yang Se Jong plays the role of Ma Kang Wook, a passionate prosecutor who fears ghosts but gets entangled in supernatural events. His performance stood out for its down-to-earth realism, portraying a man torn between fear and responsibility. Observers also noted its softer, more accessible graphics, which increases the character’s appeal and relatability.
Meanwhile, Ong Seong Wu faces Kang Min Hwan, a hotel CEO who hides ambition behind a gentle demeanor. His performance introduced an intriguing dualism, oscillating seamlessly between warmth and underlying tension, leaving a strong impression even in the early stages of reading the script.
Reading the script showed a strong synergy between the cast. From thrilling ghost stories to witty exchanges between the protagonists, the atmosphere was full of reactions and laughter.
The production team highlighted: “The drama will offer romance, thrills and catharsis as two people discover the truth behind the death and ultimately fall in love.”
With its strong cast and unique mix of genres, “Scary in love” is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated K-dramas of the summer. If the on-screen execution matches the energy seen while reading the script, the series could offer viewers a compelling blend of spine-tingling mystery and emotionally resonant romance.
