New Romance Sparks in 'Our-Universe' as Bae In-hyuk and Roh Jeong-eui Start Living Together

Bae In-hyuk and Roh Jeong-eui embark on a new living arrangement in the upcoming tvN drama 'Our-Universe'.

Set to premiere on February 4th, the drama released a teaser on the 23rd, sparking curiosity about the story of Seon Tae-hyung (played by Bae In-hyuk) and Woo Hyun-jin (played by Roh Jeong-eui) as they encounter a new 'universe' in their lives. Entangled as in-laws, the unexpected cohabitation leads to a budding romance that promises to quicken viewers' heartbeats.

'Our-Universe' follows the comedic and romantic misadventures of two in-laws who suddenly find themselves raising their 20-month-old nephew, Woo-joo (played by Park Yoo-ho). The story explores the growth of these two individuals, who are neither quite strangers nor family, as they navigate their new 'universe'. Directed by Lee Hyun-seok and Jung Yeo-jin, known for their stylish direction, and penned by writers Soo-jin and Shin Yi-hyun, the drama promises a high level of quality. The cast, including rising stars Bae In-hyuk, Roh Jeong-eui, and Park Seo-ham, is expected to deliver a delightful and refreshing romantic comedy.

Bae In-hyuk plays Seon Tae-hyung, a seemingly aloof but secretly tender photography assistant with skills that even the main photographer envies. Roh Jeong-eui takes on the role of Woo Hyun-jin, a spirited job seeker with a positive outlook. Her ordinary life takes an unexpected turn when she decides to care for her nephew Woo-joo after an unforeseen incident. Park Seo-ham plays Park Yoon-sung, Woo Hyun-jin's first love, whose presence adds excitement to the romantic dynamics.

The teaser begins with Seon Tae-hyung and Woo Hyun-jin going about their daily lives, only to be disrupted by the arrival of their nephew Woo-joo, described as "another universe" in their lives. Suddenly becoming guardians due to their in-law status, their cohabitation is intriguing from the start. The challenges of raising Woo-joo and the unexpected romantic tension between the two promise to captivate viewers. The dynamic between the two, who bicker at every turn, raises questions about what will unfold in their shared parenting journey.

The appearance of Woo Hyun-jin's first love, Park Yoon-sung (played by Park Seo-ham), also draws attention. Woo Hyun-jin is startled by Park Yoon-sung's sudden visit, and the timing of their reunion, after their college romance never fully blossomed, adds to her frustration. Meanwhile, Seon Tae-hyung's curious gaze at the growing closeness between Woo Hyun-jin and Park Yoon-sung adds another layer of intrigue. As Park Yoon-sung was Woo Hyun-jin's first love, viewers are eager to see how this past connection will affect her relationship with Seon Tae-hyung.

'Our-Universe' premieres on February 4th at 10:40 PM.
