Lee Da Hee and Super Junior’s Choi Siwon have shown off their realistic friendship in new teasers for ENA’s upcoming drama!

“Icy Cold Romance” (literal title) tells the story of a “realistic survival romance” between Goo Yeo Reum and Park Jae Hoon, who have been best friends for 20 years. The pair begins to experience romantic feelings for each other after unexpectedly meeting as a producing director (PD) and cast member of a reality dating show.

Lee Da Hee stars as Goo Yeo Reum, who has been a variety show PD for the past 10 years and is desperate for both work and love. Super Junior’s Choi Siwon portrays Park Jae Hoon, a plastic surgeon who is considered unemployed because of his irregular pay and who has lost interest in both work and love.

ENA recently released the first teaser for “Icy Cold Romance” that captures the realistic and funny friendship between Goo Yeo Reum and Park Jae Hoon. The clip starts with Goo Yeo Reum getting comfy in bed after a long day of work. When she gets a call from someone asking to meet up, she shoots out of bed and quickly gets to deciding a new outfit. While getting ready, she phones her best friend Park Jae Hoon and excitedly shares, “He suddenly said he’s coming to meet me outside my house! I think he’s probably going to ask me to start dating as of today.”

Looking gloomy and annoyed, Park Jae Hoon responds, “You’re overreacting all by yourself…” Unbothered by his response, Goo Yeo Reum continues, “Should I just overtake him first?” Park Jae Hoon tells her, “You’ve finally gone crazy. Even if you overtake him, he is not going to sleep with you. I bet 2 million won [approximately $1,430].” Fed up now, Goo Yeo Reum quietly comments, “I should really just kill him…”

At the end, Park Jae Hoon spots Goo Yeo Reum outside, covered in mud. Instead of going over to help, he calls out her name and starts to mock her with a dance.

ENA also dropped a new retro teaser poster that shows old televisions featuring Goo Yeo Reum eating snacks and Park Jae Hoon drinking beer. The third TV beside them only shows color bars, hinting at a mysterious figure coming in to interrupt their long-standing relationship.

Love is for Suckers” has dropped a new look at Choi Siwon and Lee Joo Yeon!

ENA’s upcoming Wednesday-Thursday drama “Love is for Suckers” tells the story of a “realistic survival romance” between Goo Yeo Reum (Lee Da Hee) and Park Jae Hoon (Super Junior’s Choi Siwon), who have been best friends for 20 years. The pair begins to experience romantic feelings for each other after unexpectedly meeting as a producing director (PD) and cast member of a reality dating show.

Choi Siwon portrays Park Jae Hoon, a plastic surgeon who is considered unemployed because of his irregular pay. He has lost interest in both work and love and is only interested in casual dating. Lee Joo Yeon plays golden girl Han Ji Yeon, a university professor with a pretty face and great connections. After meeting on a bad blind date, they unexpectedly reunite as cast members on Goo Yeo Reum’s dating reality show “Kingdom of Love.”

“Love is for Suckers” has released new stills of Choi Siwon and Lee Joo Yeon meeting for the first time after their first blind date. As they both try to get a proper read on their date, they focus closely on every single one of each other’s actions. All throughout their meal, Park Jae Hoon keeps taking doubtful glances at Han Ji Yeon and she adds to the tense atmosphere by worriedly staring back at him.

Lee Da Hee And Park Yeon Woo Get Flirty Outside Her House In “Love Is For Suckers”

ENA’s upcoming drama “Love is for Suckers” has shared a sneak peek of the chemistry between Lee Da Hee and Park Yeon Woo!

 

“Love is for Suckers” is a romantic comedy starring Lee Da Hee and Super Junior‘s Choi Siwon as two best friends who have known each other for 20 years. When they meet as the producing director (PD) and a cast member of a reality dating show, they unexpectedly begin to develop romantic feelings for one another.

 

Lee Da Hee will star in the drama as Goo Yeo Reum, a variety show PD in the 10th year of her career. Despite her hard work, all the programs she gets involved with wind up being unsuccessful.

 

Park Yeon Woo will play the role of John Jang, a handsome celebrity chef who is currently appearing on Goo Yeo Reum’s show “Ramyun Chef.” Although they are working together as director and cast member, the two have been secretly meeting off set and getting to know each other personally.

 

In newly released stills from the upcoming drama, John Jang shows up at Goo Yeo Reum’s house late at night in a flashy red sports car. Goo Yeo Reum, who looks elated to see him, is all dressed up in a form-fitting white dress—a fit that is way more glamorous than anything she’d ever wear at the broadcast station.

 

As romantic tension builds between the duo, it remains to be seen whether this ongoing flirtation will blossom into a full-fledged romance.

“In keeping with the nature of the two characters’ relationship, this is a scene where they exchange some suggestive dialogue,” they continued. “Please look forward to it.”

 

“Love is for Suckers” premieres on October 5 and will be available with subtitles on Viki.
