과연, 이번에도 아리의 기술은 그녀의 삶을 승승장구하게 해줄까요??
This is what I gathered just based on Google Translate:
1. Eddie Kang comes back to Korea with 2 goals in mind, one of which is to marry Ji Hyun (PArk Ha Sun).  The character description doesn't say if he loves her, or just feels affection for her, or if he is marrying because that is what their family wants.
2. Go Ah Ri (Han Chae Young) abandons her first love to pursue her ambitions.  She will use her beauty, if necessary, to achieve her goals.  She will try to seduce Eddie Kang.  Will her seduction techniques help her achieve her goal again?
2. Ji Hyun works as an ordinary employee at Geumshan Ad  without letting other people know that she belongs to a rich family.  She may be from a rich family, but she prefers to be like ordinary people.  To receive the recognition of her father, who is niggardly in his praise of her, she complies with everything he wants.  But her world will turn into chaos when she meets LTB.
3.  We already know LTB's goals so I will not repeat it here.  But here's an addition:  While trying to achieve his own goals he will meet up with his first love again who abandoned him years ago, and things will start to go wrong again.
Note:  In the Korean version, no names are mentioned as to who Go Ah Ri's and LTB's first loves are.  I am making the assumption that they are each other's first loves.
I am sure I made a lot of mistakes, so if someone can make a better translation, that would be great!

Jin Goo, where's the tough guy?

Jin Goo transformed into the genius art director Lee Tae-baek in the KBS 2TV drama "Lee Tae-baek" despite the bias towards him.
Jin Goo's role of Lee Tae-baek lives a tough life without any specifications, money or back up but has the strong mentality to break down those walls and walk through them.
The still cut revealed above is from the first episode. Lee Tae-baek is happy and smiling energetically on his way back from an interview.
Putting on the mask of a happy-go-lucky young man in his twenties, Jin Goo has been possessed as Lee Tae-baek and many are curious to see how he puts on this character in the future.
Unlike most of his serious and charismatic images so far known in movies and dramas, serious Jin Goo is nowhere to be seen but there is just a bouncy young man riding on a scooter.
Meanwhile, "Lee Tae-baek" is expected to deliver hopes and dreams to those young generations who live a tough life. To be aired on the 4th of February after "School 2013".

Does anyone know what the term "PT wizard" means?  This is my first time to encounter such a term in a kdrama.  And I don't know anything about advertising so "PT wizard" is Greek to me.^^
