The delayed romance between second couple Park Yoon and Park So-jin’s characters in Cinderella at 2 AM is ramping up the excitement.
In Channel A’s Saturday-Sunday drama, Si-won (Park Yoon) and Mi-jin (Park So-jin) enter a politically motivated marriage, only to find unexpected feelings blossoming between them. This marriage-first-love-later trope is creating a captivating tension in the story.
Awkward Beginnings
Si-won and Mi-jin’s initial encounter, which began as an in-flight blind date, highlighted their differing tastes and lacked any emotional connection. After getting married, the two spent life away from each other living in different sides of the globe. When Mi-jin suddenly returns to Korea, their first days of cohabitation were marked by awkwardness, making even basic communication a challenge. They eventually signed a contract to ease their living situation, both questioning whether their marriage could truly work, leading to growing anxiety.
Sweet Tensions
As time passes, Si-won and Mi-jin find themselves increasingly irked by one another’s habits. However, Si-won gifts Mi-jin a book and a large teddy bear to help with her insomnia, while Mi-jin, noticing Si-won’s “like” on her macarons photo, rushes back to Korea to bring him some. Their daily interactions reveal a budding chemistry that neither can ignore.
Confession and New Beginnings
Despite the nature of their political marriage, playful banter leads to unexpected tension. Si-won, feeling down about their public relations efforts masquerading as dates, confesses his feelings to Mi-jin. She, sensing his sadness, responds by taking him out for dinner at a simple restaurant. Walking side by side at the market, Mi-jin is suddenly pushed aside by a vendor leading Si-won to catch her and saying “I fell for you.” Will this spark lead them into a genuine relationship, transitioning from a marriage of convenience to one of real connection?
Consequently, the two actors are reuniting after Delightfully Deceitful where they also showed off their good chemistry.
