JTBC’s newest drama “Clean with Passion for Now” has revealed some of its highlights.
In a new video, CEO of the cleaning company Jang Sun Kyul (played by Yoon Kyun Sang) shows how much he loves cleanliness at work and at home.
As someone on the job search, Gil Oh Sol (played by Kim Yoo Jung) doesn’t have the luxury to date or even clean her room. Due to the many women who visit him and his suspicious actions, she suspects her rooftop neighbor Choi Kun (played by Song Jae Rim) to be a player or a fortune teller.
Viewers are also introduced to some of the supporting characters such as Jang Sun Kyul’s secretary (played by Yoo Sun) as well as the flower boy cleaning fairies.
Jang Sun Kyul and Gil Oh Sol cross each other’s paths multiple times—first through an ill-fated relationship, followed by an accident, and then possibly fate.
In the preview, a relationship of Gil Oh Sol’s goes south. She’s had a crush on a guy for three years, but her best friend warns her that he’s sly and has many women. It, unfortunately, turns out that she was right and Gil Oh Sol cries after breaking up with him.
Jang Sun Kyul’s seemingly perfect world also has some faults. At dinner, his grandfather says, “I can’t give my company to someone who has flaws. It’s a cleaning obsession when you put it in a good way, but that’s a mental illness. It’s an illness that’s created because your mental state is in ruins.”
Jang Sun Kyul and Gil Oh Sol seem to have found each other when they’re both hurting from their own realities. But due to his obsession for cleanliness, he can’t help but point out the “dirty” parts of Gil Oh Sol. Despite this, the two keep running into each other and even more especially after she joins his company.
His cleaning obsession seems to be improving after meeting Gil Oh Sol and he tries to contain a smile while watching her. He asks, “Gil Oh Sol, can I see your hand for a moment? I have something I need to check,” before pulling her in for a kiss.
“Clean with Passion for Now” airs on Mondays and Tuesdays at 9:30 p.m. KST.
