Namgoong Min and Ahn Eun Jin draw attention in a special moment pictured in the first poster shared by new MBC drama Lovers.
Lovers depicts the romance of a lover in the backdrop of Qing invasion of Joseon. It follows stories of the people who cultivated hope in times of hardship.
The drama reunites Namgoong Min with Director Kim Sung Yong with whom he worked in the series The Veil. Penning the script is writer Hwang Jin Young who wrote Rebel: The Thief Who Stole The People and The King’s Daughter, Soo Baek-hyang.
Namgoong Min (One Dollar Lawyer, Doctor Prisoner) portrays Lee Jang-hyun as a complex character with a natural playfulness. But inside, he has darkness not revealed to anyone.
Playing the female lead Yu Gil-chae is Ahn Eun Jin (The One and Only, Hospital Playlist). Gil-chae is a well-mannered lady from a prestigious family. She is a snobbish and arrogant person who believes that she is the center of the world and that she is God’s gift to men. But she gradually matured as she experienced the suffering of war and came to truly fall in love with a man.
“Lovers” Captures Cast Synergy At Recently Held Script Reading
A month before the broadcast, the teaser poster for Lovers was first released. It evokes solemn beauty that can be felt by viewers.
Facing each other against the backdrop of the sea, Jang-hyun and Gil-chae are locked in a meaningful moment.
As seen in the poster, the distance between the two is a bit far. Nevertheless, the image of two people looking only at each other is heartbreakingly beautiful.
What put emphasis on the picture is the heartfelt emotional line: “lover who missed and loved so much.”
It draws curiosity to how the sad love story will be portrayed in Lovers, which has so far expressed an arresting story based on the expressive gaze shown by the lead stars.
Inviting viewers, the production team attests to the preparations done to make Lovers a well-made series.
“Nam Goong Min, Ahn Eun Jin, Lee Hak Joo, Lee Da In and all the actors and the crew of Lovers look forward to the day they meet with viewers. We would like to ask for your interest and anticipation for the heartfelt love story that will capture your hearts in the second half of 2023.”
MBC’s new Friday-Saturday drama Lovers will be broadcast for the first time at 9:50 pm on Friday, August 4, 2023.
