JTBC’s upcoming Wednesday-Thursday drama “Destined With You” has released two new posters ahead of the premiere!
“Destined With You” is a fantasy romance which will tell the love story of a woman who obtains a forbidden book sealed 300 years ago and a man who becomes a victim of the forbidden book. The drama will be penned by “100 Days My Prince” writer No Ji Sul and helmed by director Nam Ki Hoon of “Oh My Baby” and “Voice 3.”
Jo Bo Ah plays civil servant Lee Hong Jo, who resolves the civil complaints of Onju City Hall and who will also solve Jang Shin Yu’s curse. Despite having to deal with complaints that go beyond people’s imaginations, Lee Hong Jo always does her best. However, she is a person who is used to being alone, and she always remains resilient no matter the situation.
Rowoon portrays ace lawyer Jang Shin Yu who is waiting for the owner of the old wooden box that will undo his curse. Jang Shin Yu becomes entangled with Lee Hong Jo in an unimaginable way in an effort to undo the curse that has been passed down for generations in his family. As his unknown illness becomes more severe, he asks for help from Lee Hong Jo, the owner of the old wooden box, and faces an unimaginable change.
In the newly released poster, Lee Hong Jo sits at the city hall office, eyes sparkling with curiosity. Next to her is Jang Sin Yu with an indifferent facial expression. The folklore that unfolds behind them appears to hint at their past lives, raising questions about the mysterious shrine beneath the moonlight as well as the man and woman who are affectionately gazing at each other at the bottom of the poster.
Furthermore, the text on the poster reads, “We have been terribly destined to be since 300 years ago,” making viewers wonder about the fate between Lee Hong Jo and Jang Shin Yu.
Another poster shows the two getting one step closer, creating a heart-fluttering atmosphere. Lee Hong Jo gives a meaningful smile as Jang Shin Yu leans in toward Lee Hong Jo as if he is about to whisper something in her ear. Above them is the text, “A long, long time ago, did we date?”
The production team shared, “‘Destined With You’ is a romance grounded on reality on top of a folklore-like fantasy, and it is an interesting production with refreshing laughter, sweet heart-fluttering excitement, and thrilling mystery. Please anticipate the romance chemistry between Jo Bo Ah and Rowoon who carefully developed their two characters with special narratives.”
JTBC’s “Destined With You” is scheduled to premiere on August 23 at 10:30 p.m. KST.
