After, Yoo Yeon Seok greets viewers as Han Sang Soo, an associate at KCU Bank.

When he was younger, he wanted to become ‘normal’ like his peers.

He’s a character who works really hard at the bank in order to become ‘normal.'”

While watching, I figure that viewers will also be able to relate to this realistic love.” Geum Sae Rok shares that the drama helps one understand that nobody’s love is right or wrong, because love is to each their own.

Moon Ga Young Is An Ace Employee Hiding Her True Emotions In “The Interest Of Love”

 

Newly released stills for “The Interest of Love” introduce Moon Ga Young and her guarded character!

 

“The Interest of Love” is a new romance drama about four individuals with different interests who meet each other at the Yeongpo branch of KCU Bank and come to understand the true meaning of love.

 

In the upcoming drama, Moon Ga Young will play Ahn Soo Young, a woman who is particularly skilled in sales and is in her fourth year as a senior staff member at KCU Bank’s Yeongpo branch. She catches everyone’s attention not only with her incredible skills as the ace of her office, but also with her breathtaking beauty and charming smile.

 

However, this smile is just one of Ahn Soo Young’s means of protecting herself as she moves along the invisible walls of the office hierarchy, wearing a mask to shield her inner self. Having become accustomed to a lifestyle that is all about survival within a fiercely competitive society, she even views love as a sandcastle that is always in danger of collapsing no matter how carefully she works to build it.

 

For the longest time, Ahn Soo Young has shielded her heart and not allowed anyone in, but then she meets Ha Sang Soo (Yoo Yeon Seok), who simply won’t leave her alone. As he brings with him a wave of new emotions, what will this mean for Ahn Soo Young’s metaphorical sandcastle?

 

The first character stills of Moon Ga Young show all sides of Ahn Soo Young. We see her wearing her carefully-crafted mask as she works as a teller at the bank, a professional smile on her face that doesn’t exactly reach her eyes. But as soon as she takes off her work uniform, she is able to take a breath and finally let her true emotions show. Within her eyes is a small spark of excitement that is missing during her days at the bank, and it remains to be seen how her new emotions will change the life she has worked so hard to maintain.

JTBC’s Understanding of Love gives longing looks and love squares

by Jenzy

UL7.jpg

 

JTBC just dropped the first teaser for their upcoming romance melodrama Understanding of Love, giving off a slice-of-life meets second-chance yearning. We follow lives of four hardworking employees who work at KCU Bank. As they work day in day out to make a name for themselves, they’ll navigate the messy and complex maze of love in their own ways.

Yoo Yeon-seok (Narco-Saints) leads the pack of employees as chief branch manager Ha Sang-soo. He’s the rock of the branch, a dependable hard-working figure that’s been there for three years. Of course, his workplace life is also rife with unresolved romantic tension via his coworker senior bank teller Ahn Soo-young, played by Moon Ga-young (Link: Eat, Love, Kill).

Soo-young, having worked at the bank for four years, has seen it all, from the crazy customers to the unreasonable upper management. She’s been able to keep a pleasant demeanor and work through most problems, but she’s a complete cynic when it comes to love, especially with our branch manager Sang-soo.

 

Finally, our love square is only complete when we throw deputy manager Park Mi-kyung — played by Geum Sae-rok (Youth of May) — and security guard Jung Jong-hyun — played by Jung Ga-ram (Love Alarm 2) — into the mix. The bubbly Mi-kyung, while coming from a wealthy family, is out here trying to make a name for herself. Meanwhile, Jong-hyun is a cop wannabe studying for the police entrance exam. Both will fall in love with our leads, adding to the complicated web that is a workplace romance. But in dramaland, would we really want it any other way?

 

 

The teaser gives us very wistful “the one that got away” longing. We see a shot of happier times between Sang-soo and Soo-young, contrasted with their professionalism present day. In the voiceover, we also hear Soo-young tell Sang-soo, “You asked me once before if things would’ve been different had we started dating…” which is interrupted by shots of our central duo being asked out by their other coworkers: Sang-soo being asked out by Mi-kyung and Soo-young getting a rain-soaked confession from Jong-hyun. We then hear Soo-young finish her voiceover thought: “No, we would never have worked together.”

We get a couple of more wistful looks between all our characters and end on Sang-soo’s response in voiceover, “Is that really all you came to say?”

Based on the novel by Lee Hyuk-jin, adapted into screenplay by Lee Hyun-jung and Lee Seo-hyun, and directed by Jo Young-min (Do You Like Brahms?), Understanding of Love will air on December 21 on JTBC.

Watch: Yoo Yeon Seok And Moon Ga Young Hint At Their Turbulent Past Relationship In “The Interest Of Love” Teaser

JTBC’s upcoming drama “The Interest of Love” has dropped another intriguing teaser!

 

“The Interest of Love” is a new romance drama about four individuals with different interests who meet each other at the Yeongpo branch of KCU Bank and come to understand the true meaning of love.

 

The new teaser begins by showing the daily lives of busy bank employees. Unlike Ha Sang Soo (Yoo Yeon Seok), Ahn Soo Young (Moon Ga Young), and Jung Jong Hyun (Jung Ga Ram) who bow as they warmly greet customers, Park Mi Kyung (Geum Sae Rok) introduces herself with confidence. Ha Sang Soo narrates in the background, “In Korea, money decides the hierarchy. There is a hierarchy among those who visit the bank and those who work at the bank.” Ha Sang Soo then continues, “Just like in my relationship with that woman,” as the scene zooms in on Ahn Soo Young, giving viewers a hint at the pair’s troubled past relationship.

 

Despite showing glimpses of Ha Sang Soo and Ahn Soo Young’s inner feelings when the two can’t stop stealing glances at each other, the teaser also heralds a more complicated situation when Park Mi Kyung brightly runs to hug Ha Sang Soo in front of Ahn Soo Young. Later, Jung Jong Hyun takes his chance to comfort Ahn Soo Young, sweetly saying, “You are not a pushover in any way. You will be an even more wonderful person. More than what you can imagine now.”

 

At the end of the video, Ha Sang Soo narrates, “For me, happiness was about not making moments I’d want to turn back and change. Nevertheless, the choices I made were always far from happiness.” Curiosity arises to find out what choices the four characters will make in the face of regret as they search for their happiness.

Yoo Yeon Seok, Moon Ga Young, Geum Sae Rok, And Jung Ga Ram Search For What Love Means To Them In “The Interest Of Love”

JTBC’s upcoming drama “The Interest of Love” has released a new official poster!

 

“The Interest of Love” is a new romance drama about four individuals with different interests who meet each other at the Yeongpo branch of KCU Bank and come to understand the true meaning of love. The drama stars Yoo Yeon Seok, Moon Ga Young, Geum Sae Rok, and Jung Ga Ram as four of the bank’s employees, and it will explore their individual stories.

 

The new poster features the four leads in their crisp and clean work uniforms, sitting under the blue sky during their break. Their relaxed postures and easy smiles reveal that underneath their uniforms, they’re just young people trying to find and understand love.

 

But just because they are all sitting side by side doesn’t necessarily mean that their thoughts about love and life are the same. The caption “Can love happen with only love?” poses a very open-ended question, suggesting that these four people all carry their own different understandings of love and what it means to love.

 

This individuality is present within the finer details of the poster, such as the subtle differences between the lanyards that each person chose themselves, the accessories they wear, and their name tags, which all lend to the idea that they are all different people with their own thoughts. Viewers can look forward to seeing how each of them will come to understand love and find true happiness in their own way.

Banking on love alone in JTBC’s Understanding of Love

by tccolb

undlov-t-7.jpg

 

Reflecting on the question of whether love can conquer all, the newest promos for JTBC’s Understanding of Love takes us into the day-to-day at KCU bank where we meet our main quartet: Yoo Yeon-seok (Narco-Saints), Moon Ga-young (Link: Eat, Love, Kill), Geum Sae-rok (Youth of May), and Jung Ga-ram (Love Alarm 2).

In the tangle of love crisscrossing between our four characters, it’s a classic dilemma of heart versus head as our leads find themselves drawn to one another despite outside realities pulling them apart.

 

 

The newly released teaser begins at KCU bank where staff are ready to go at their stations when the doors open 9 AM sharp. As we watch our characters go about their work day, Ha Sang-soo (Yoo Yeon-seok) explains, “In 2022, social hierarchy in South Korea is determined by money. There is a ranking system for the people who come to the bank as well as for us, who work at the bank.” Sneaking a quick glance at Ahn Soo-young (Moon Ga-young) – only to look away when she returns his gaze – Sang-soo continues that there’s a gap between the two of them as well. In the appearing text screen, we read: “There is also a hierarchy in love.”

Flashing back, we see how Sang-soo and Soo-young’s relationship sparked. But we’re quickly shown the fallout after with Soo-young’s angry confrontation: “I thought you and I were similar types of people. If you were going to do that, why did you act like you were different from them? Did I look easy to you?” Although Sang-soo retorts that isn’t the case, we then jump to Park Mi-kyung (Geum Sae-rok) greeting Sang-soo with a happy hug. Soo-young then finds reassurance in Jung Jong-hyun (Jung Ga-ram), who is certain that her future will be better beyond her imagination. The following text screen reads: “A heart that cannot resist calculating interests.”

In the sequence that follows, we see a hopeful Mi-kyung and Jong-hyun. But an anxious Sang-soo runs back to Soo-young, to ask, “Then, what happens to us?” As Soo-young looks back at him, the teaser closes with Sang-soo’s sad realization: “To me, happiness was about not making moments I regret. And yet, my decisions have never resulted in happiness.”

With PD Jo Young-min (Do You Like Brahms) at the helm with scripts co-written by Lee Seo-hyun and Lee Hyun-jung, JTBC’s Understanding of Love premieres December 21 in the Wednesday-Thursday slot.

Jung Ga Ram Gives His Everything For Love And His Dreams In “The Interest Of Love”

JTBC’s upcoming drama “The Interest of Love” has just released new stills of Jung Ga Ram!

 

Starring Yoo Yeon Seok, Moon Ga Young, Geum Sae Rok, and Jung Ga Ram, “The Interest of Love” is a romance drama about four individuals with different interests who meet each other at the Yeongpo branch of KCU Bank and come to understand the true meaning of love.

 

Jung Ga Ram will play Jung Jong Hyun, a rather naive and innocent young man who gives his all for the sake of love, living by the motto that he can do anything he puts his mind to. Jung Jong Hyun is a security guard at KCU Bank who is preparing to take the official exam for the police force. He doesn’t have much at the moment, but he remains motivated by his hopes and dreams, working at the bank during the day and dedicating his nights to studying. He is incredibly hard-working and driven, and he carries a determination and passion to see things out until the very end.

 

His passion burns even brighter as he becomes caught up in a new dream: becoming the perfect man for a love that makes him tremble in excitement and admiration. But as the weight of reality presses down not only on his shoulders but also his heart, love beings to feel more like a debt that he must repay, instead of the ray of light it was before.

 

In the newly released stills, Jung Jong Hyun wears a smile full of affection during the time before he begins to view love in a light that wasn’t so rose-tinted. Despite how busy he is working at the bank and studying at the library, his gaze is full of warmth towards the object of his affections. It’s a mystery how such a bright and pure love could suddenly turn into something that feels as crushing and burdensome as a debt.
