Looking for love and marriage in new promos for SBS’s Business Proposal

by tccolb

We’ve had a steady stream of promos for SBS’s upcoming Business Proposal, which will help tide us over as we wait for the premiere that was sadly delayed by a week.

The drama’s setup is this: what started as simple favor quickly gets out of hand when Kim Se-jung (The Uncanny Counter) agrees to help her friend avoid an unwanted arranged marriage. Kim would pretend to be her friend and, having once dreamed of becoming an actor, could have fun acting out of character and ruining her friend’s blind dates. Of course, their carefully laid plans go awry when the last date turns out to be Kim’s boss Ahn Hyo-seop (Lovers of the Red Sky). And, even more unexpectedly, rather than being turned off by Kim’s antics, Ahn becomes intrigued by her and proposes marriage.

The friend Kim Se-jung is trying to help is Seol In-ah (Mr. Queen). Seol’s parents had had an arranged marriage, but their strained relationship eventually led to divorce. As such, Seol is determined to only marry for love and her heart is set on Kim Min-kyu (Snowdrop) – Ahn Hyo-seop’s close friend and secretary.

The latest video teaser begins with Ahn Hyo-seop walking confidently through an airport before taking part in a company ceremony. Grandfather Lee Deok-hwa (The Red Sleeve Cuff) proudly announces a new project that he is entrusting to his grandson and Ahn is shocked when he learns what it is. We then jump to Kim Se-jung helping Seol In-ah and scaring off Seol’s marriage suitors. Kim panics, though, when she sees boss Ahn Hyo-seop’s business card and tries to avoid being seen by him at work. Getting a hold of Kim’s work ID badge, Ahn realizes what happened and admires her double identity act. The teaser comes to an end with Ahn Hyo-seop offering his hand to Kim Se-jung as he states his wishes to marry her.

Co-written by Han Seol-hee (Rude Miss Young-ae) and Hong Bo-hee (High Kick 3: Counterattack of the Short Legs) with directing helmed by PD Park Sun-ho (Greasy Melo, Suspicious Partner), Business Proposal premieres February 28.
