Ko Kyung Pyo Has A Change Of Heart Ahead Of His Engagement In "Undercover Miss Hong"

Will Ko Kyung Pyo’s impending engagement to Choi Ji Su go off without a hitch? Set in the late 1990s, tvN’s “Undercover Miss Hong” is a comedy starring Park Shin Hye as Hong Geum Bo, an elite financial supervisory officer in her 30s who goes undercover as a 20-year-old entry-level employee at a securities firm where suspicious financial transactions have been detected. Spoilers Previously on “Undercover Miss Hong,” Hong Geum Bo and her new team picked Oh Deok Gyu (Kim Hyung Mook) as the first target of their secret operation. Despite being aware of the risk to his father’s position within the company, Albert Oh (Cho Han Gyul) still chose to team up with Hong Geum Bo and join her mission. Meanwhile, newly released stills from the drama’s next episode capture Hong Geum Bo talking to Shin Jung Woo (Ko Kyung Pyo) in her work uniform. Up until now, the two exes have held differing views on the future direction of Hanmin Securities, so it remains to be seen what sort of conversation will take place between them. Another set of stills shows Shin Jung Woo speaking to Kang No Ra (Choi Ji Su), who appears startled by a sudden change in his attitude. The final set of photos offers a glimpse of Shin Jung Woo and Kang No Ra’s engagement party. Notably, a chilling silence has descended over the table where the Hanmin Securities family and their closest associates are seated, including Albert Oh, Kang Pil Beom (Lee Deok Hwa), Oh Deok Gyu, and Song Joo Ran (Park Mi Hyun). As Choi In Ja (Byun Jung Soo) is dead set on her daughter No Ra marrying Shin Jung Woo so that she can win the ongoing succession battle, she is absolutely determined to make sure the engagement goes smoothly.

Lee Si Woo Makes A Chilling Transformation In "No Tail To Tell"

Lee Si Woo Makes A Chilling Transformation In "No Tail To Tell"

SBS’s “No Tail to Tell” has unveiled a sneak peek of Lee Si Woo’s dark transformation! “No Tail to Tell” is a fantasy romance drama starring Kim Hye Yoon as Eun Ho, a quirky Gen Z gumiho (magical nine-tailed fox) who is determined not to become human, and Lomon as Kang Si Yeol, an overly confident world-class soccer player. The drama will follow their chaotic journey as the two attempt to save one another. Spoilers Previously on “No Tail to Tell,” Hyun Woo Seok learned that he had only six months to live due to heart cancer. Meanwhile, Eun Ho turned down the chance to return to being a gumiho by stabbing Si Yeol, declaring that she would find a way to protect him on her own. Newly released stills from the drama’s next episode offer a troubling glimpse of an unexpected change in Palmiho (Lee Si Woo), the only being capable of changing Eun Ho and Si Yeol’s fates. On the latest episode, Jang Do Cheol set his sights on Palmiho, putting her in danger—and it appears that he may have succeeded in bewitching her. As Palmiho faces Eun Ho and Si Yeol, there is an empty coldness to her gaze that ominously suggests she is not the Palmiho they know. Meanwhile, the preview that aired at the end of the latest episode showed Palmiho approaching Eun Ho as Geum Ho in search of her fox bead. The “No Tail to Tell” production team revealed, “In Episode 11, which airs today, Lee Yoon will approach Eun Ho as the owner of Kang Si Yeol’s team, and Jang Do Cheol will manipulate Palmiho in order to find the fox bead.” They went on to tease, “Please stay tuned until the end to find out what choice Eun Ho will make to protect Kang Si Yeol amidst the worst of crises.” The next episode of “No Tail to Tell” will air on February 27 at 9:50 p.m. KST.

Lee Sung Kyung Opens Up To Chae Jong Hyeop On "In Your Radiant Season"

MBC’s “In Your Radiant Season” has shared a new glimpse of its next episode! “In Your Radiant Season” is a new romance drama about the love story between Sunwoo Chan (Chae Jong Hyeop), a man who lives each day like an exciting summer vacation, and Song Ha Ran (Lee Sung Kyung), a woman who has closed herself off as through trapped in a long winter. Spoilers On the previous episode of “In Your Radiant Season,” the surprising twist that Sunwoo Chan had been exchanging messages with Song Ha Ran on behalf of a different “Chan”—her boyfriend Kang Hyuk Chan—and not himself was revealed. Seeing Ha Ran struggling to overcome her grief after the loss of her boyfriend, Chan made up his mind to help her find happiness again and offered her a “three-month neighborhood friend trial” before his return to the United States. In newly released stills from the drama’s upcoming episode, Ha Ran and Chan embark on a danchung (traditional Korean decorative painting) tour as part of their ongoing animation collaboration. In one photo, Ha Ran is taken aback by Chan’s choice of outfit, but his traditional garb and signature infectious energy quickly make him popular at the palace. At one point during their tour, while Chan briefly steps away for a moment, Ha Ran is strolling alone through the palace when she suddenly freezes in her tracks. As she stares at something in the distance, her eyes begin to redden with tears, as if she’s just witnessed something she hadn’t expected. Later, as Chan gazes at her with eyes full of concern, Ha Ran finally opens up about the long-hidden feelings she’s been suppressing up until now. In turn, Chan shares his own story of having once been caught in the harshest of emotional winters, resulting in both of them learning about one another’s wounds and pain. Will Ha Ran continue to push Chan away after their emotional conversation, or will she undergo a change of heart? To find out, catch the third episode of “In Your Radiant Season” on February 27 at 9:50 p.m. KST!

“Phantom Lawyer” Teases Distinct Personalities And Teamwork Through Animal Symbolism

“Phantom Lawyer” Teases Distinct Personalities And Teamwork Through Animal Symbolism

“Phantom Lawyer” has introduced its characters by comparing them to animals, reflecting the drama’s Eastern-inspired worldview. “Phantom Lawyer” is a quirky yet heartwarming legal drama that follows the adventures of Shin I Rang (Yoo Yeon Seok), a lawyer who can see ghosts, and elite attorney Han Na Hyun (Esom) as they resolve the lingering grievances of their very unusual clients—ghosts—through the law. Ahead of its premiere, the drama interprets the instincts and personalities of its characters, including the two lawyers and those around them, through animal traits. The production team explained, “We used animal comparisons to present each character’s traits more intuitively. Watching characters with completely different personalities clash and grow together will be one of the drama’s biggest charms.” First, the “possessed lawyer” Shin I Rang resembles a squirrel—warm-hearted and deeply empathetic. Unable to ignore the resentment of the dead, he lets emotion guide him more than calculation when faced with injustice. Though usually cheerful, he springs into action in moments of crisis, overflowing with curiosity, responsibility, and energy. Treating cases as matters of people rather than work, his unwavering dedication becomes a driving force of the story. In contrast, Taebaek Law Firm’s star attorney Han Na Hyun is an eagle who reads the bigger picture from above. She prioritizes data over emotion and strategy over instinct. Once she sets a goal, she pursues it with sharp focus and relentless determination. The evolving relationship between impulsive Shin I Rang and strategic Han Na Hyun—who clash before ultimately becoming partners—is a key point to watch. Yang Do Kyung (Kim Kyung Nam), who leads Taebaek Law Firm, is likened to a raccoon who enjoys competition. Behind his easy smile lies careful calculation, and while he appears spontaneous, he has a sharp sense for timing, creating tension with his clever maneuvering. Yoon Bong Soo (Jeon Seok Ho), Shin I Rang’s brother-in-law and office manager, is a bee—constantly busy and keeping the firm running through practical work and organization. Not a flashy hero, but someone whose absence would quickly disrupt balance. Father Matteo (Jung Seung Gil) is compared to a sheep with claws—gentle yet firm at his core. Though calm and observant, he reveals strong convictions when necessary, serving as another pillar connected to Shin I Rang’s worldview. Newly released stills also show Shin I Rang, Yoon Bong Soo, and Father Matteo working together to solve a case, raising anticipation for how their teamwork will shape the story. Lastly, Shin I Rang’s mother Park Kyung Hwa (Kim Mi Kyung) is a tiger—unshaken by emotion and fiercely strong. Having raised her son while running a butcher shop with unwavering toughness, she commands attention with her blunt honesty and resolute personality. Beneath her tough exterior, however, lies deep kindness and devoted love, leaving viewers curious about how she will react upon learning that her son works alongside ghosts. SBS’s new Friday–Saturday drama “Phantom Lawyer” will premiere on March 13 at 9:50 p.m. KST.
