KBS2’s upcoming romantic comedy “My Girlfriend Is the Man!” has released new stills featuring ASTRO’s Yoon San Ha and OH MY GIRL’s Arin, showcasing their chemistry in a blind date scene. The drama, based on a popular webtoon, tells the story of a college couple whose relationship takes a wild turn when the girlfriend suddenly turns into a man.
The drama is set to premiere on July 23 at 9:50 PM KST and will also be available for streaming on Viki. Fans are excited to see how the unique storyline unfolds, blending romance, comedy, and a twist of fantasy.
Blind Date Scene Highlights Yoon San Ha and Arin’s Chemistry
The newly released stills capture the first meeting between Park Yoon Jae (Yoon San Ha) and Kim Ji Eun (Arin). Yoon Jae, an astronomy major at Yeonhee University, arrives early for their blind date. When Ji Eun, a Korean literature student, walks in, he is instantly captivated by her. The two share a sweet moment as they talk, with Ji Eun smiling brightly.
However, the scene takes a curious turn when Yoon Jae follows Ji Eun outside and grabs her arm. This moment hints at a deeper connection between them, raising questions about what really happened during their first encounter.
The production team shared that Yoon San Ha and Arin worked hard to perfect their roles, even during rehearsals. Their natural chemistry helped bring the scene to life, making it feel fresh and exciting.
“We firmly believe Yoon San Ha and Arin will become clear icons of romantic comedy through this project,” said the production team. “Please look forward to their impressive performances, showcasing refreshing visuals and strong acting skills.”
A Unique Love Story with a Gender-Bending Twist
The drama follows Park Yoon Jae, a devoted boyfriend, whose life turns upside down when his girlfriend, Kim Ji Eun, suddenly transforms into a man named Kim Ji Hoon (played by Yoo Jung Hoo). The change is due to a mysterious family trait, forcing Yoon Jae to adjust to his girlfriend’s new appearance.
Despite the shocking situation, Yoon Jae remains loyal to Ji Eun (now Ji Hoon). However, their relationship faces another challenge when Kang Min Ju (played by Chuu), a popular student, tries to win Yoon Jae’s heart, thinking Ji Eun is no longer in the picture.
The drama explores themes of love, identity, and acceptance, wrapped in humor and heartfelt moments. Fans of the original webtoon are eager to see how the adaptation brings the story to life.
