A Sweet and Spicy Countdown to Love
What happens when two total opposites fake a marriage for 90 days? SBS’s upcoming romantic comedy ‘Wuju, Marry Me’ is here to serve sweet chemistry with just enough bite to keep viewers hooked. Starring Choi Wooshik and Jung Somin, this new Friday-Saturday drama kicks off in South Korea on October 10 at 9:50 p.m. KST.
From Solo Comfort to Pretend Couple Chaos
Choi Wooshik plays Kim Wuju, the picture-perfect heir of South Korea’s oldest confectionery brand, Myungsoondang. He’s a no-nonsense guy who claims, “I’ve never been interested in other people” — and honestly seems just fine on his own. His dry delivery and cold glare scream perfectionist, but there’s more under the surface.
Enter Jung Somin as Yoo Mary, a one-woman powerhouse running her own business with a bright smile and a heart of steel. Just when she thinks her life is on track, she catches her fiancé cheating — cue a scream, real tears, then a heart-shaped hand pose. Talk about emotional whiplash. Her scene-stealing expressions already have fans buzzing.
Opposites Clash in All the Right Ways
The teaser’s big win? The sizzling “tiki-taka” (a Korean phrase meaning fast, witty back-and-forth) between these two leads. At first, it’s all awkward run-ins and snark, but by the end of the preview, they’re nearly locking lips. The line “Fate is always closer than you think” lingers as a possible clue that this fake relationship might just turn real.
Will This ‘Fake Marriage’ Get Real?
Directed by Song Hyunwook and Hwang Inhyuk, with a script from Lee Hana, ‘Wuju, Marry Me’ promises a bubbling mix of romance, comedy, and maybe even a little heartbreak. It’s more than just cohabitation hijinks—it’s about destiny, personal growth, and whether people really can fall for someone they’re pretending to love.
