The long wait is over, K-Drama fans! Actress Bae Suzy is making her acting comeback with the Netflix series Doona. 

On Thursday, September 21, Netflix released the official trailer for its upcoming romance drama, which stars Bae Suzy and Yang Se Jong. 

In the one-minute trailer, Suzy captivated the viewers’ attention with her jaw-dropping visuals. For this drama, Suzy will be playing the role of Doona, a former K-pop idol who left her glamorous celebrity life. 

Meanwhile, Yang Se Jong will play the role of an ordinary college student named Won Jun. His simple life will then change as he ends up sharing a house and falling in love with the mysterious Doona.

As seen in the preview teaser, Won Jun immediately gets starstruck upon seeing Doona as she enjoys the morning sun. Falling head over heels for her, Won Jun exclaims: “It’s my fault. Overstepping the mark without the conviction to do so”.

Then, things begin to escalate as the characters spend time together and the tension between them gets higher. The teaser ends with the two closing in for a kiss and Doona saying: “I’m telling you this just in case, but don’t fall for me either”.

Moreover, Netflix also released the drama’s posters with the characters’ intriguing lines. In the couple’s poster, it read:  “What will you do if I actually end up falling for you?”

Doona is set to be released on October 20.

Doona: Suzy and Se Jong’s comeback drama

Interestingly, the upcoming series directed by Crash Landing On You creator Lee Jeong-Hyo, will be Suzy’s first TV appearance in over a year. Her last project was the 2022 psychological thriller Anna. For that drama, Suzy gained recognition as she proved her versatility with the distinct role.

Suzy, who was given the title “Nation’s First Love”, has also etched her name as one of the most promising leading actresses in South Korea. Among her highly-acclaimed dramas include Start-Up, While You Were Sleeping, and Uncontrollably Fond. 

Notably, the former Miss A member made her acting debut in the high school drama Dream High. In the 2012 drama, she starred alongside singer-actors IU, Kim Soo Hyun, 2PM’s Taecyeon and Wooyoung, and Hahm Eun Jung.

On the other hand, Doona will also be the comeback drama for actor Yang Se Jong. His last TV appearance was when he made a cameo in the popular medical series Dr. Romantic in 2020.

Prior to that, Se Jong has starred as the main lead in the dramas Temperature of Love, Thirty But Seventeen, and My Country: The New Age.
