Dec 02, 2020

KakaoTV’s upcoming original drama “Lovestruck in the City” has postponed its premiere date.

“Lovestruck in the City” is a short-form romance drama that follows the realistic love lives of young people fighting to survive in the hectic city. It is being produced with multiple seasons in mind, and the first is titled “My Lovable Camera Thief” (literal translation). It stars Ji Chang Wook, Kim Ji Won, Kim Min Seok, So Ju Yeon, Ryu Kyung Soo, and Han Ji Eun.

On December 2, a source from “Lovestruck in the City” stated, “The drama will premiere on December 22 at 5 p.m. KST. Although we recently resumed filming after our cast and crew all tested negative for COVID-19, we decided to adjust the schedule in order to ensure the safety of our set and a higher quality of production. We ask for viewers’ understanding on this issue and we will continue to put our cast and crew’s safety first and follow government guidelines on preventing transmission.”

On November 24, it was reported that a background actor (extra) on “Lovestruck in the City” had tested positive for COVID-19. Filming temporarily ground to a halt as all cast and crew members underwent testing for COVID-19.

“Lovestruck in the City” had previously planned to premiere on December 8.

In a new teaser for the drama, the characters share their different perspectives on love. Ji Chang Wook says wistfully, “I believed it was love,” while Kim Ji Won says, “I think I’ll never forget him as long as I live.” Kim Min Seok says insistently, “We were in love. We are in love,” while So Ju Yeon looks hesitant to answer. Han Ji Eun says, “All men are the same,” and Ryu Kyung Soo says, “How have you been?”
