Park Hye-soo finds herself in a precarious situation.
Ahead of the fourth episode of KBS Joy's new Monday-Tuesday drama 'Dear. M' (written by Lee Seul, directed by Park Jin-woo and Seo Joo-wan, produced by Monster Union and Playlist), the production team released stills featuring Ma Joo-ah (played by Park Hye-soo) in crisis and Cha Min-ho (played by Jung Jae-hyun) in pursuit.
The released photos capture Ma Joo-ah's radiant smile, which usually brightens the mood of those around her. However, the subsequent image shows Cha Min-ho rushing somewhere with urgency. His usual playful demeanor is replaced by a pale face filled with anxiety and desperation.
In a dark alley, Ma Joo-ah encounters someone and freezes in place. Her eyes, filled with fear and confusion, amplify the viewers' sense of unease.
In the previous episode, Ma Joo-ah chose Cha Min-ho over her crush, Moon Joon (played by Lee Jung-sik), opting to be with Min-ho instead of going on a date with Moon Joon. As she was on her way to an exhibition with Moon Joon, she suddenly asked him to stop the car due to the unexpected rain, heading towards Cha Min-ho, who was standing in the rain.
The sight of Cha Min-ho drenched in rain hints at a trauma connected to it, raising curiosity about his backstory and drawing attention to today's episode.
KBS Joy's 'Dear. M' episode 4 airs tonight (22nd) at 9:50 PM.
