ASTRO’s Cha Eun Woo is set to grace the screens again! He’ll be taking the lead role in the upcoming fantasy-romance drama series A Good Day to be a Dog.

Actress Park Gyu Young will star alongside Eun Woo. She’s popularly known for projects It’s Okay to Not be Okay, Sweet Home, and Celebrity.

On Tuesday, September 5, MBC unveiled teasers of both Eun Woo and Gyu Young in the highly-anticipated drama.

The television network also released cute posters of dogs, perfectly encapsulating the lighthearted tone of the drama. “Attention cuteness, Ready to dangle!” the post’s translation said.

 

To make things more exciting, the drama’s first trailer was released on Wednesday, September 6. Aside from the two main stars, it also featured appearances of adorable dogs.

 

What is the drama about?

A Good Day to be a Dog will revolve around Park Gyu Young’s character, Han Hae Na, a high school teacher who is cursed to transform into a dog with a single kiss. Whenever she kisses a man, she turns into a dog at midnight and reverts back to her normal appearance at dawn.

Meanwhile, Cha Eun Woo will play the role of Jin Seo-Won, a high school teacher who conceals a trauma for dogs due to his painful past. Interestingly, Seo-Won turns out to be the only cure to undo Hae Na’s curse.

With Hae Na and Seo-Won’s encounter, both of their lives take an unexpected turn and form a potential love interest.

The series is based on the Naven webtoon of the same name, which was written by Lee Hye. The author also wrote the recently adapted series See You In My 19th Life, starring Shin Hye-Sun and Ahn Bo Hyun.

As per reports, the series will air once a week with its premiere on October 11. It will run a total of 14 episodes.

Additionally, drama fans are even more excited for A Good Day to be a Dog since this marks the actors’ reunion project in four years. Eun Woo and Gyu Young have previously showed their chemistry in Urban Zakapa’s “You’re the Reason” music video. There, the two played the roles of office lovers.
