Park Eun-bin & Ong Seong-wu are friends-turned-rivals in tvN's 'Creepy Romance'
Park Eun-bin and Ong Seong-wu play chaebol heirs bound by years of friendship—and a curse that keeps them apart—in tvN's occult romance *Creepy Romance*, premiering July 18 at 9:10 PM.
Park Eun-bin and Ong Seong-wu are set to share the screen in tvN's new Saturday-Sunday drama Creepy Romance (오싹한 연애), directed by Lee Min-su and written by Choi Jung-mi, premiering July 18 at 9:10 PM.
Park Eun-bin plays Cheon Yeo-ri, head of Korea's top luxury hotel and heir to a hotel and resort group. She has wealth, status, looks. She also has a curse: anyone who touches her sees ghosts. It's kept her isolated her whole life. Ong Seong-wu plays Kang Min-hwan, successor of CL Hotel & Resort Group and head of CL Raymond Hotel. He wants his parents' and company's approval badly enough to hide that ambition behind a polished smile.
The two have been close friends for years, bonded by their shared chaebol backgrounds and secrets neither can tell anyone else. Kang Min-hwan eventually develops feelings beyond friendship for Cheon Yeo-ri. That's where things get complicated. Cheon Yeo-ri, operating as head of Reina Hotel, draws a strict line between work and personal life specifically to shield him from her curse.
(Friends, rivals, and one of them is literally haunted. The setup writes itself.)
The production team says the dynamic between Cheon Yeo-ri and Kang Min-hwan—"with an uncrossable line between them"—will offer "different fun" from her main romance with Ma Kang-wook. They add: "Please watch Cheon Yeo-ri trying to distance herself to protect her friend and Kang Min-hwan's sincerity in wanting to change her resolve."
