The new romance K-Drama “Our Unwritten Seoul” is getting a lot of attention online just after its first two episodes. The show premiered on May 24, 2025, and features Park Bo Young, Park Jin Young, and Ryu Kyung Soo. It is quickly being called a must-watch weekend drama.
The series airs every Saturday and Sunday on tvN in South Korea and is also available to viewers worldwide on Netflix. The story is about twin sisters who have very different personalities. They change lives under mysterious circumstances and end up living new lives based on a lie.
Positive Reactions From Viewers
Even with only two episodes out, “Our Unwritten Seoul” has already become a popular topic in Korean online groups. A recent post that went viral on TheQoo, a well-known online community, showed how much viewers are enjoying the show.
Many people thought the drama would be serious and quiet because of its moody posters. However, fans were surprised to find that the show has a bright feel, a message about healing, and even some light comedy.
A viral post on TheQoo stated,
“It’s nothing like that. It’s actually a coming-of-age story with a bright tone and even some comedy. The writer, director, and cast are all amazing, and it’s seriously so good! The dialogue in particular is really beautiful—realistic and super relatable, which makes it even better. You have to give it a try!”
Strong Start in Viewership
The viewership numbers for “Our Unwritten Seoul” also show its early success. According to Nielsen Korea, the first episode of the K-Drama received a nationwide rating of 3.6%. In Seoul, the rating was 4.1%. These are good numbers for a show on a cable network, especially for its first weekend.
Many online comments from viewers show how much they like the drama:
“It’s really good. I was wondering what to watch after ‘Twenty-Five Twenty-One,’ and this hit the spot.” “It’s soooo good” “As soon as I heard it was from the ‘Youth of May’ writer, I got interested.” “It’s seriously so good. I always trust Park Bo Young’s acting, and Jinyoung is absolutely amazing too.” “Wait, it’s the ‘Youth of May’ writer? That explains it… it’s trustworthy.”
What Makes “Our Unwritten Seoul” Stand Out
The drama’s ability to surprise viewers with its light and healing tone, despite early expectations, has helped it gain popularity. The writing and direction are also being praised for creating relatable dialogue and a compelling story. The performances of Park Bo Young and Park Jin Young are also getting positive feedback from the audience.
Park Bo Young is known for her strong acting skills, and Park Jin Young, a member of GOT7, plays the role of Lee Ho Soo. The combination of a talented cast and a well-received production team, including the writer of “Youth of May,” has contributed to the drama’s strong start.
