Kim Jung-hyun remembers his past in Kkokdu’s Season

by tccolb

The mystical fates have brought our leads together again in MBC’s newest teaser and stills for their fantasy romance Kkokdu’s Season, which stars Kim Jung-hyun (Mr. Queen), Im Soo-hyang (Doctor Lawyer), Dasom (Was It Love), and Ahn Woo-yeon (Young Lady and Gentleman).

It’s been 99 years since grim reaper Kkokdu (Kim Jung-hyun) stepped foot on the earth and he’s back again to decree his divine punishment on humankind, this time embodying the human Dr. Do Jin-woo. This brings him to encounter our heroine, Dr. Han Gye-jeol (Im Soo-hyang), who seems to have a mysterious power of her own.

In the newly released stills, we also meet fellow doctor Tae Jung-won (Dasom) as well as Gye-jeol’s younger brother, Detective Han Cheol (Ahn Woo-yeon).

The newest teaser opens with Kkokdu and Gye-jeol’s first re-meet over a bridge, where our OTP walk past each other as strangers – unaware of their past connection. But something causes them to both pause and look back, triggering a painful memory for our grim reaper. The hazy flashback then shows us a crying Gye-jeol as Kkokdu fights in battle.

The present-day Gye-jeol looks concerned when Kkokdu falls back, trying to block the ringing in his ears. But he quickly gets up to grab onto Gye-jeol, demanding to know who she is. The moment then freezes for our pair as we return to the past again. But this time we see a happier Kkokdu who presents Gye-jeol with a ring. Transitioning back to the present again, the teaser closes on our two leads as they stay standing together atop the bridge.

Co-written by Kang Yi-heon (Bad Detective) and Heo Joon-woo (Bad Detective) with PD Baek Soo-chan (Alice) and PD Kim Ji-hoon (Check Out the Event) co-directing, MBC’s Kkokdu’s Season premieres next month on January 27 in the Friday-Saturday slot.
