Actors Kim Young-kwang and Chae Soo-bin are set to star in the Netflix series 'Please Charge Me' (literal translation).
'Please Charge Me' is a romantic comedy that sparks with electricity, featuring a man with a depleting artificial heart battery and a woman with the power to electrify. Directed by Park Soo-won, who has been celebrated for his humorous and witty direction in works like 'Work Later, Drink Now 2' and 'Birthcare Center', and based on a popular Naver web novel, the screenplay is penned by newcomer Song Yu-chae.
The pairing of Kim Young-kwang and Chae Soo-bin in a romantic comedy has been highly anticipated.
Kim Young-kwang plays Baek Ho-rang, a third-generation chaebol leading a top conglomerate's resort. A capable businessman and a strong candidate for group leadership, he harbors a secret vulnerability: an artificial heart that is his only weakness. Amidst a fierce battle for control of the company, Ho-rang meets Na Bo-bae, a miraculous woman who can recharge his nearly depleted heart battery, leading to an unexpected proposal.
Kim Young-kwang, known for his versatile transformations across genres and characters, has garnered attention with his confirmed appearance in 'Please Charge Me', following his role in the Netflix series 'Trigger'. His performances in romantic works like the movie 'On Your Wedding Day' and the drama 'Call It Love' have left audiences eagerly anticipating the charm he will bring to this romantic comedy.
Chae Soo-bin shines as Na Bo-bae, a drama writer with electric abilities. Facing the expiration of her contract, she must complete a romance script but has never been able to hold hands with someone she likes due to an electric shock received in childhood. Meeting Baek Ho-rang, the only person immune to her electric touch, presents her with a chance to recharge her lifelong romance deficiency.
Having captivated audiences in the Netflix series 'The Fabulous', the drama 'When the Phone Rings', the Netflix movie 'Sweet & Sour', and the films 'Hijack 1971' and 'Omniscient Reader', Chae Soo-bin is expected to dazzle as a spirited and bold character, earning her the title of 'Rom-Com Goddess'.
'Please Charge Me' will be available on Netflix.
