The TVing original 『Dear X" (played by Choi Jae-won, Ban Ki-woon, directed by Lee Eung-bok and Park So-hyun) captured an unexpected meeting between Baek A-jin (Kim Yoo-jung) trapped in the bondage of hell on the 6th, ahead of its first release, and Baek Sun-kyu (Bae Soo-bin) who keeps nibbling him.
'Dear X' tells the story of Baek A-jin, a masked woman, and Xs brutally trampled on her to get out of hell and up to the highest point. The destruction of Baek A-jin, who hid his cruel true colors behind his beautiful face, and the love of Yoon Joon-seo (Kim Young-dae), who chose hell to protect him, announce the birth of a never-before-seen doom-melo suspense.
Based on the popular webtoon of the same name, attention is focused on the meeting between the production team and actors who will maximize genre pleasure. Director Lee Eung-bok, who received great love for his works such as 'Sweet Home' 'Mr. Sunshine' 'Guardian' 'Descendants of the Sun', and director Park So-hyun, who has a delicate and sensual directing ability, co-directed by Choi Jae-won, who won the best prize in the KBS one-act play script contest in 2018, and webcomic author Ban Ji-woon, who led the global box office success of the original, co-wrote the work. In addition, the overwhelming enthusiasm of actors who breathed into characters such as Kim Yoo-jung, Kim Young-dae, Kim Do-hoon, Lee Yeol-eum, Kim Yi-kyung, Bae Soo-bin, Kim Yoo-mi, and Kim Ji-young is combined to give a different sense of immersion.
Meanwhile, the photo released shows an unwelcome reunion between Baek A-jin and Baek Sun-kyu. After his wife's death and remarriage with Hwang Ji-sun (Kim Yoo-mi), Baek Sun-kyu, who suddenly abandoned his young daughter and disappeared, suddenly appeared at Baek A-jin's school. His appearance, which is unusual in his awkward clothes, eyes, and behavior, makes the whole school noisy. This leads to a scuffle between Yoon Joon-seo, who approaches and stops Baek A-jin, and Shim Sung-hee (Kim Yi-kyung), who tries to fight back by catching Baek A-jin's weakness. On the other hand, hatred and resentment pass through Baek A-jin's complex expression, which stopped walking after seeing Baek Sun-kyu from a distance.
After that day, the relationship between the father and the daughter, which is stronger than the bad relationship, continues. In another photo released together, Baek Sun-kyu even appears at Baek A-jin's house, creating tension. There's only one reason he's coming to his daughter: he's gambling and needs money. Baek's irritation and dissatisfaction-filled eyes add to the sadness as Baek Ah-jin looks familiar and resigned. Baek Ah-jin, who has been raised since childhood by enduring abuse such as indifference and neglect by her parents, violence and verbal abuse. Attention is focusing on whether he will be able to get out of this hellish reality by climbing from the bottom of his life to the top.
Episodes 1-4, which will be released on the 6th, depict Baek A-jin's unusual and unhappy childhood. Unpredictable developments are expected amid the emergence of Yoon Joon-seo and Kim Jae-oh (Kim Do-hoon), who stand by Baek A-jin, who is living with broken emotions unlike ordinary people, and Choi Jung-ho (Kim Ji-hoon), the only adult.
Writer Ban Ji-woon, who participated in the adaptation and writing as the original author, said "I think the point to watch in the first to fourth episodes is the intense villains who are opposed to Baek A-jin and the process of Baek A-jin dealing with them. The relationship between the two men with Baek A-jin, Yoon Joon-seo and Kim Jae-oh, will also be an interesting point. "Dopamine is guaranteed because it consists of episodes with a sense of speed and attractiveness. "I'd appreciate it if you could come and see 'Pretty Ajin, evil Ajin'," he said, pointing out the point of viewing full of affection and confidence in the work.
Meanwhile, the TVing original 'Dear X' will release episodes 1-4 at 6 p.m. on the 6th. After that, two episodes will be released sequentially every Thursday at 6 p.m.
