Kim Jae-joong’s Bad Memory Eraser leads him to Jin Se-yeon

by tccolb

The first teaser has dropped for MBN’s new rom-com Bad Memory Eraser, presenting our memory-less hero Kim Jae-joong (Manhole) and the psychiatrist who he believes to be his first love Jin Se-yeon (Born Again).

Opening with Kyung Joo-yeon’s (Jin Se-yeon) voiceover, she reflects on Lee Gun’s (Kim Jae-joong) current state, explaining that, “This man finally erased his memories of hardship that he so wanted to forget for 15 years.” When his burgeoning tennis career had been halted by a bad injury, Gun had been sunk deep into despair and struggled to restore his sense of self worth – that is, until our title’s ~eraser~ allows him to actually forget what happened.

Now free from his terrible memories, the newly confident Gun takes control of his life again. But he’s curious about his missing past and Joo-yeon looks conflicted as Gun questions, “Would I be able to reclaim the memory that I lost?” In the intermittent text screens, we then read: “The man who changed his life with the memory eraser and the woman who wields his destiny.”

Despite it being a first love fabrication, though, Gun seems to have really fallen for Joo-yeon and she, in turn, is not unaffected as well. She reassures Gun that, “It’s okay if you don’t remember because I remember,” and suggests a date, offering, “Is there anything you want to do? I’ll do it all with you.” And when Gun calls her pretty, Joo-yeon can’t help but think to herself that he’s good looking too.

Although Gun claims, “I haven’t even shown you 1% of my charm,” Joo-yeon’s heart has been racing all this time. Joo-yeon thus decides that she needs to check her heart to be certain of her feelings and the teaser closes just as our pair leans in for the smooch.

Written by Jung Eun-young with PD Yoon Ji-hoon (Shine or Go Crazy, Witch’s Romance) and PD Kim Na-young co-directing, MBN’s Bad Memory Eraser will be premiering on August 2 and releasing internationally on Viki in select regions.
