A new video teaser has been released for tvN’s upcoming drama Immortal Souls, featuring lead actors Lee Jin-wook (Sweet Home) and Kwon Nara (Secret Royal Investigator).
In an epic-style romance spanning 600 years, Lee Jin-wook plays the once human Dan-hwal who was cursed with immortality and became a being called the Bulgasal. His fate, however, is tragically tied to Kwon Nara and he is trapped in the never ending cycle of re-meeting each of her reincarnations as time passes.
The teaser opens with a shadowy Lee Jin-wook walking down a back alley, his face hidden under a hood. The text screen introduces him as someone who “cannot be killed, cannot die.” As the scene transitions to Lee Jin-wook 600 years ago, he narrates, “For a long time, I have struggled while looking for you.” The next caption reads: “One man’s sad but beautiful fate.” We then cut to Kwon Nara turning around to see Lee Jin-wook in the present day before the scene transitions to her past. The teaser comes to a close as Lee and Kwon stand to look at each other.
Directing for the drama is PD Jang Young-woo (Entourage, I Need Romance 3) with scripts penned by the married writer team who wrote The Guest, Seo Jae-won and Kwon So-ra. The three have worked together on several projects in the past, including Entourage.
Immortal Souls is currently set to premiere on December 18 on tvN.
