Ahn Hyo-seop has A Business Proposal for Kim Se-jung in new teaser

by tccolb

A new video teaser has been released for SBS’s upcoming rom-com A Business Proposal, featuring lead actors Kim Se-jung (The Uncanny Counter)and Ahn Hyo-seop (Lovers of the Red Sky).

Based on a popular web novel by Hae Hwa which was released on Kakao, the drama stars Ahn Hyo-seop as CEO Kang Tae-moo. In a classic trope, his meet-cute with Kim Se-jung is one of mistaken identity. Kim’s character Shin Ha-ri is just an ordinary employee who happens to work at Ahn’s company. When she is coerced into pretending to be her friend on a blind date, the other party turns out to be Ahn (of course!) and shenanigans ensue.

The teaser starts with Ahn Hyo-seop introducing himself, “My name is Kang Tae-moo. I will tell you about myself. Basically, I’m good at everything.” A text screen appears, labelling him as, “A man who excels in many areas.” The teaser then cuts to Kim Se-jung getting ready for the date, and pulling out all the stops. In voice-over, we hear Seol In-ah (Mr. Queen) pleading with Kim, “Ha-ri, you need to help me! I need to escape from the blind date marriage market. Please use your acting skills for me just one more time.” The following text screen explain that Ha-ri is, “A woman with God-given acting ability.”

At the meeting location, Ahn Hyo-seop calls out to Kim Se-jung, “Ms. Jin Young-seo?” Kim is conflicted to see that the blind date she is meeting in her friend’s place is actually her company CEO. As the camera flips back and forth between the two, the captions explain, “Two people meet on a blind date.” Although Kim Se-jung goes ahead with her act to try and squash Ahn Hyo-seop’s interests, he decides, “I will marry the woman I met today.”

We get a brief glimpse of Kim Min-kyu (Snowdrop) as he almost runs over Kim Se-jung with his car. She’s busy trying to hide from Ahn Hyo-seop at work and an irate Seol In-ah demands, “What did you do exactly to make Kang Tae-moo want to marry you?” Shocked, Kim Se-jung repeats, “He wants to get married? To you!?” However, Ahn Hyo-seop is onto their little game and he tells Seol In-ah, “Please bring her here first.” Seol asks, “Who?” and Ahn replies, “The woman I was going to marry.” The teaser comes to a close on Ahn Hyo-seop and Kim Se-jung meeting each other again in the rain.

Directed by PD Park Sun-ho (Greasy Melo) and written by Han Seol-hee (Rude Miss Young-ae 16) and Hong Bo-hee (High Kick 3: Counterattack of the Short Legs), SBS rom-com A Business Proposal is currently set to premiere in February.
