All set to gift a delightful saccharine story, Bad Memory Eraser decks premiere on August 2!
Bad Memory Eraser (LT) is a thrilling first love manipulation romance about a man whose life changes thanks to a memory eraser and the woman who becomes his first love.
Anticipation is running high as the series will be Kim Jaejoong’s drama comeback after seven years and Jin Se Yeon’s small screen return after four years.
Kim Jaejoong plays the role of Lee Gun, a promising genius tennis player who suffered from low self-esteem due to a childhood accident. After undergoing a ‘bad memory eraser’ surgery, he is reborn with ‘maximum self-esteem, confidence, and presence.
Jin Se Yeon plays the role of Kyung Joo-yeon, a psychiatrist at a brain research center who ends up being manipulated into being Lee Gun’s first love.
In the couple poster, Kim Jaejoong sits with his arms linked and a playful expression. He completely leans his body and head on Jin Se Yeon’s, suggesting a deep intimacy and raising curiosity about their close relationship.
Jin Se Yeon shows off her adorable quirkiness and absurdity as she holds a stethoscope to Kim Jaejoong’s head while wearing a doctor’s gown. Her wide, surprised eyes as she examines his head capture attention.
Adding more interest, the copy, “Do you have a memory you want to erase?” gives an intriguing vibe. It raises expectations for the story of the unpredictable people bound by fate after entrusting bad memories.
Accordingly, character teasers were unveiled featuring the lead stars.
Adorably capturing Lee Gun’s old less-confident self, he is seen bullied by his dog during a family meal inciting laughter. He is seen sitting in a daze while looking at his laughing family, which is heartbreaking. Also, the fiery war of nerves between Lee Gun, gazing blankly at his dog sitting higher than him, and the dog, who ignores Lee, and only looks at the food on the table, stimulates smiles.
In the still cuts released by the production team, Kyung Joo-yeon is wearing a white doctor’s gown. Her round glasses with foggy patterns also reveal her eccentricity and inexperience.
Joo-yeon is a doctor who is so obsessed with research that she is called a ‘cold bone induction’ in the hospital. After meeting Lee Gun, who imprinted her as his first love as the only side effect of her successful surgery, she is reborn with a completely different charm.
Lee Gun has become an unstoppable straightforward lover, resolutely expresses his love, even when she clenches her fists with a determined expression and shouts, she is helpless in front of Lee Gun’s bulldozer-like love every time.
