Yeonwoo Pulls A Flustered Kim Hyun Jin Into An Unexpected Situation In “Love Phobia”
U+tv’s new drama “Love Phobia” has unveiled new stills ahead of its upcoming episode! “Love Phobia” tells the story of Han Sun Ho (Kim Hyun Jin), a romance novelist who is deeply in tune with his emotions, and Yoon Bi Ah (Yeonwoo), the emotionally detached CEO of the AI-powered dating app “It’s You.” When their paths cross, they slowly begin to understand each other and embark on a journey to find love. Spoilers In the last episode, Yoon Bi Ah faced a crisis when her trauma—being unable to stay with another person for more than an hour—was triggered. However, the situation took an unexpected turn when Han Sun Ho grabbed her hand and led her away from the scene. The moment was captured by reporters and sparked dating rumors. To make matters worse, actor Park Jung Won (Jung Su Hwan), who had been used as the AI test-version model, became entangled in a stock manipulation scandal, causing a major blow to Yoon Bi Ah’s company. To overcome the crisis, she lied and claimed to be in a relationship. The two, now tied together by unfortunate circumstances, reached a turning point in their relationship when Yoon Bi Ah acquired Han Sun Ho’s company, which was on the verge of being taken over by loan sharks. As Yoon Bi Ah attempts to use Han Sun Ho as the new prototype model for “For Me 2nd Generation,” the newly released stills capture the pair linking arms and standing noticeably closer than before. The images show Yoon Bi Ah and Han Sun Ho bickering in the middle of the street, locked in a tense battle of wills. While Han Sun Ho tries to break free, Bi Ah refuses to let go of his arm. Adding to the mystery, Yoon Bi Ah glances around cautiously with a suspicious look. Meanwhile, Han Sun Ho appears flustered by the sudden turn of events. His subtly shaking gaze and stiffened expression suggest that something serious has occurred. Just who is standing at the spot where Han Sun Ho’s uneasy eyes are fixed? The next episode of “Love Phobia” will air on February 26 at 11 p.m. KST.

Yoo Yeon Seok And Esom Reveal Their True Faces Beyond The Cracks In New Drama "Phantom Lawyer" Posters
SBS’s upcoming drama “Phantom Lawyer” has unveiled new character posters! “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. The newly released posters visually capture the two characters’ narratives at a glance by contrasting their “visible faces” with their “true nature” breaking through the cracks. First, Shin I Rang’s poster is powerfully stamped with the line: “Do you still see me as a lawyer?” A fissure begins to split across the face of a lawyer in a neat suit, and through that gap, other versions of him seep through. A bandage stuck to his cheek, a robe instead of a suit, an idol badge pinned to the right side of his chest, and even a shaman-like tie and fan—images that seem like they should never go together coexist within a single person. Han Na Hyun’s poster reveals a different kind of crack from Shin I Rang’s. At first glance, what stands out is her unwavering gaze, impeccably tailored suit, and the cool, confident image of the ace attorney at the major law firm Taebaek—but the crack running across her face suggests that fractures have begun to form within her. The confession, “Being a lawyer was originally my older sister’s dream,” instantly reveals Han Na Hyun’s story that had been shrouded until now. It hints that the profession of being a lawyer was not her own dream but a choice she made to carry on someone else’s unfinished dream. In particular, the guitar bag and diary seen behind Han Na Hyun in the poster are important clues. During her school days, when her life sparkled with dreams and hope, she lived on with the guilt of having been the only one to survive an accident that occurred on the day she and her older sister were on their way to see a performance. Later, the pledge she found in her sister’s diary—“I will become the best lawyer”—completely changed the course of Han Na Hyun’s life. The production team remarked, “With these character posters, we aimed to symbolically capture that the two aren’t merely courtroom partners but beings who will shake up each other’s worlds. One is thrown into confusion as other people’s stories seep into him, while the other locks herself away while carrying someone else’s dream.” “Phantom Lawyer” premieres on March 13 at 9:50 p.m. KST.
