Jo Yun Seo and VICTON’s Byungchan have officially joined the cast of the upcoming romantic comedy drama “Love Phobia” (literal title), starring Yeonwoo and Kim Hyun Jin.
Upcoming Romance Drama ‘Love Phobia’ Adds Two Major Players
“Love Phobia” revolves around Han Sun Ho (played by Kim Hyun Jin), a sensitive and introspective romance novelist, and Yoon Bi Ah (played by Yeonwoo), a stoic and emotionally distant CEO of the AI-powered dating app “It’s You.” The story follows the unlikely pair as they navigate love, healing, and connection in the digital age, ultimately challenging each other’s beliefs about relationships and vulnerability.
Jo Yun Seo will portray Seol Jae Hee, the co-CEO of “It’s You” and a reliable anchor in Bi Ah’s life. Smart, efficient, and deeply loyal, Jae Hee handles everything from customer service to app development. Her sharp wit and caring nature make her the perfect counterbalance to Bi Ah’s cool demeanor. Their supportive, sister-like friendship brings both heart and humor to the series.
Byungchan takes on the role of Han Baek Ho, Sun Ho’s stylish and outgoing fraternal twin. While Sun Ho is quietly introspective, Baek Ho is charismatic and effortlessly social. After a chance event leads him to work at “It’s You,” Baek Ho also finds his world turned upside down as he unexpectedly falls for someone at the company, sparking a charming and lighthearted subplot.
The drama’s production team also shared their excitement, stating, “Jo Yun Seo and Choi Byungchan bring a fresh dynamic and undeniable chemistry to the cast. Their characters add depth and energy to the story, and their unique acting styles will further enhance the emotional resonance of the show.”
“Love Phobia” is set to premiere this June and also promises to be a warm and whimsical take on modern love. Stay tuned for more updates on this story.
