Yoon Du-jun and Kim Seul-ki's 'Cat Custody War' Drama Sparks Interest with Unique Premise

Actors Yoon Du-jun and Kim Seul-ki have stirred excitement with the release of a mobile wedding invitation, which turned out to be a promotional stunt for their upcoming drama, 'Cat Custody War.' The drama centers around a couple embroiled in a custody battle over their beloved cat.

Set to air on Sunday, August 17th at 9:20 PM on tvN, 'Cat Custody War' portrays the story of a couple on the brink of divorce, fighting over the custody of their cat, affectionately termed 'cat custody.' The drama's team has unveiled the main poster and trailer, showcasing the sweet yet fierce romance between Yoon Du-jun and Kim Seul-ki as they vie for custody.

In the drama, Yoon Du-jun and Kim Seul-ki play Kim Do-young and Lee Yoo-jin, a couple who adopted a stray cat and treated it as family. However, after five years, they are contemplating divorce. Do-young has been the primary caregiver for the cat, Nori, handling vaccinations and neutering, while Yoo-jin, often exhausted from frequent business trips, is willing to make drastic career changes for Nori's sake.

The released poster depicts Do-young and Yoo-jin maintaining a tense relationship with Nori between them. The tagline, 'Even if we agree on divorce, we can't agree on cat custody,' highlights their determination to win custody of Nori.

In the trailer, Do-young and Yoo-jin argue over who can provide a better environment for Nori, with lines like, 'Who can offer Nori a better home?' and 'I won't leave Nori alone.' They each list their contributions to Nori's well-being, intensifying the custody battle. Viewers are eager to see who will ultimately become Nori's rightful guardian.

The drama also marks the reunion of Yoon Du-jun and Kim Seul-ki, who last worked together in 'Splash Splash LOVE' a decade ago, sparking interest in their on-screen chemistry. The surprise release of their mobile wedding invitation on social media and online communities, with the message, 'We met 10 years ago and now wish to walk together in the days ahead. Please support our first steps as a couple,' has further fueled curiosity about their relationship dynamics in the drama.

Meanwhile, 'O'PENing' is a short drama curation by tvN and TVING, promising viewers a unique experience with each standalone episode. 'Cat Custody War,' the first installment of 'O'PENing 2025,' will premiere on August 17th at 9:20 PM on tvN.
