Fans are already expressing how well the two actors look together, making the series one to look out for.
A Look at the Wedding Photoshoots
The posters for “Would You Marry Me” are designed like wedding photos, capturing the main couple in different settings. In one poster, Choi Woo Shik and Jung So Min are standing in what looks like a garden, dressed in black-and-white formal wedding outfits. Choi Woo Shik is wearing a black tuxedo, while Jung So Min is in a white wedding dress. The two are in a close, romantic pose, with Jung So Min gently placing her hand on the back of his neck. This image has been praised for showing the actors’ strong visual chemistry, making their fake marriage seem more real than fiction. The overall feel of the poster is delicate and soft, with a sheer veil adding a hint of mystery and a sense of their precarious situation.
Another poster shows the couple in a more casual setting. They are wearing matching black and white clothes and sunglasses, with bright, playful expressions. This visual is meant to show the more chaotic, fun side of their relationship as they try to keep up the pretense of being a newlywed couple for 90 days. The pictures have received a great deal of positive feedback online, with many people noting how the posters look like real “save the date” cards. Social media users have been commenting on the pictures, with many saying how excited they are to see the two actors work together for the first time.
“I couldn’t imagine this pair up when it was announced but they look so good together! The posters are beautiful! Probably one of the most beautiful posters this year? They look like save the dates wedding invites.”
“As a European I can only say, she might be the most beautiful woman of this age, and a great actress her role in ‘Alchemy of souls’ will be burned in my mind for ever. The chemistry between the two is unrivaled.”
The Story Behind the Fake Marriage
The story of “Would You Marry Me” is centered on the fake-marriage trope, a popular theme in K-dramas. The plot begins with Yoo Me Ri, a talented designer who finds herself in a difficult spot after her engagement ends and she loses her new home. However, she then receives a great opportunity: she wins a prize for newlyweds, which is a top-tier townhouse. The only problem is that she needs to be married to claim it.
This is where Kim Woo Joo comes in. He is the heir to a historic bakery, and as a marketing team leader, he is always logical and a bit of a narcissist. His professional life and personal life get tangled with Yoo Me Ri‘s when she realizes he has the exact same name as her ex-fiancé. In a desperate move to get the prize, she proposes a 90-day fake marriage to him. Kim Woo Joo, seeing a chance to get some benefit from the deal, accepts. The drama will show how their business arrangement slowly changes into something more meaningful as they pretend to be a real couple.
The show is a mix of comedy and serious moments. The production team has shared that the actors showed great “sweet and delightful comedic performances” from the very first script reading, raising expectations for their on-screen teamwork. The series is set to follow the couple through their ups and downs as they try to keep their secret while fighting to win the luxury home.
The Stars of the Show
The drama brings together two widely liked actors. Choi Woo Shik is known for his roles in the film Parasite and the series Our Beloved Summer. In Our Beloved Summer, he played the simple, gentle illustrator Choi Ung. His role as Kim Woo Joo will show a different side of his acting, as he takes on the part of a more clever and practical character.
Jung So Min is widely respected for her work in romantic comedies, earning the nickname “rom-com queen.” She has previously played a character who enters a fake marriage to get a home in the popular drama Because This Is My First Life. Her experience in these kinds of roles means she has a great understanding of how to play a character who is both funny and serious. Her most recent drama, Love Next Door, also received a lot of positive feedback for her performance. The combination of these two actors is a big reason why many are so excited about the show.
The series is directed by Song Hyun Wook, who also worked on The King’s Affection and The Golden Spoon. The script is by Lee Ha Na. The drama is planned to have 12 episodes and will be available on SBS and Disney+ beginning on October 10, 2025.
