New character teasers have been released for tvN’s Her Private Life featuring the two leads, played by Kim Jae-wook (The Guest) and Park Min-young (What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim).
The rom-com is about an art curator, Sung Deok-mi (Park Min-young) and the director of an art gallery, Ryan Gold (Kim Jae-wook). Both are well-esteemed and highly capable in their positions. However, in contrast to their more polished work selves, the two also share a common interest in their private life. Sung is a seasoned and full-time fangirl for her idol crush. And Ryan, as it turns out, is a fledgling fanboy who is just starting to learn what it means to be a part of a fandom.
The first teaser focuses on Park Min-young’s character, Sung Deok-mi. It starts with Park sharply dressed in a bright business suit as she introduces herself, “Me? I’m a successful art curator and a pro fangirl.” The camera then swirls away to Park dressed down in sweats as she continues. She holds a pillow printed with her idol’s photo and she winks as the scene spins away. Park Min-young is then seen sitting on her bed, amidst all her fan paraphernalia and with all her cameras displayed in front of her. She then says, “May fans make the world wonderful!” As the scene spins away again we return to Park in work mode as she ends her statement. It then cuts to Park Min-young taking photos along with a crowd of other fans. The teaser closes with Park Min-young standing with Kim Jae-wook as we hear her narrate in voice-over, “Her Private Life”.
The second teaser is Kim Jae-wook’s version which starts with Kim introducing himself as he says, “I am the famous Ryan Gold.” The camera spins as it transitions from scene to scene in this teaser as well, highlighting the 180 degree change from the different aspects of the characters’ personas. We first cut to Kim Jae-wook leaning on a desk as he continues his introduction, “I’m a writer and an accomplished director.” He’s wearing a snazzy grey suite and he smiles as we transition to another setup and Kim further explains, “And the director of the Mono art gallery.” The scene then changes to Kim Jae-wook standing behind a crowd of fans. He holds a camera tightly in his arms and he asks with an uncertain voice, “By the way, about fanboying, how exactly do you go about doing that?” The teaser again ends with Park Min-young standing with Kim Jae-wook. Park tries to hear what Kim is saying as he covers his mouth with his hand and whispers to the audience, “Her Private Life.”
All the spinning made me a little dizzy, but I’m still super excited for this drama! Just a few more weeks to go! tvN’s upcoming rom-com Her Private Life will premiere on Wednesday, April 10.
