Watch out for bunnies in Branding in Seongsu
by tccolb
As we head into the month of St. Valentine’s, LG’s U+ Mobile TV came out with more promos for the upcoming office romance Branding in Seongsu. But because we can’t just have nice things, it looks like a rogue Easter Bunny has a vendetta to serve, wreaking havoc for our soon-to-be body-swapped leads: Kim Ji-eun (Longing for You) and Park Solomon (a.k.a. Lomon)(Revenge of Others).
With a temperamental and no-nonsense attitude, our tough Kang Na-eon (Kim Ji-eun) has made many enemies while working as the marketing team lead. We thus begin the teaser with her firm belief that the recent attacks are not accidental and we watch as Na-eon is chased by her masked rabbit assailant in a creepy sequence, ultimately landing her in the hospital.

However, now that Na-eon and marketing intern So Eun-ho (Park Solomon) have switched souls, the situation is even more dangerous and complicated. In fact, it’s actually Eun-ho in Na-eon’s body who lies in the hospital bed, while Na-eon stands by helplessly in Eun-ho’s body. Although our leads want to know how they got swapped, our heroine decides that the more pressing mystery right now is, who is trying to kill her.
We then follow Na-eon as she looks into possible suspects at work, starting with obvious rivals. But recognizing that the culprit could be right under her nose, the list also has Na-eon’s friendly(-ish) colleagues, including a suspicious Yang Hye-ji (Sweet Home 2) and a concerned Kim Ho-young.
Once Eun-ho recovers, our main pair re-groups to discuss their plan. But Eun-ho realizes his foot in the mouth too late, wondering out loud, what kind of life Na-eon lived for something like this to happen. Backpedaling on his mistake, the teaser then ends as Eun-ho turns the blame on the evil bunny mask instead.
On the production side, U+ Mobile TV’s Branding in Seongsu has PD Jung Heon-soo (Twelve Nights) directing with scripts co-written by Choi Sun-mi and Jeon Sun-young. Premiering next week on February 5, the series will be following a 4-day weekly schedule, releasing episodes on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
