Apr 24, 2024

tvN’s upcoming romance drama “The Midnight Romance in Hagwon” has released heart-fluttering stills of Jung Ryeo Won and Wi Ha Joon!

Helmed by director Ahn Pan Seok of the hit drama “Something in the Rain,” “The Midnight Romance in Hagwon” is set against the backdrop of Daechi, a neighborhood renowned as the epicenter of private education in Korea. The plot centers around an instructor who tirelessly assists a student named Lee Joon Ho (Wi Ha Joon) in gaining admission to a prestigious university. In a twist of fate, Lee Joon Ho later returns to the academy as a rookie instructor after resigning from a large company because he remains fixated on his first love, his academy teacher Seo Hye Jin (Jung Ryeo Won), even after becoming an adult.

The newly released stills capture the subtle change in the relationship between Seo Hye Jin and Lee Joon Ho, who used to be Seo Hye Jin’s student. The two, who are the protagonists of the “Miracle of Daechi” incident 10 years ago, seem to maintain their trust and friendship even after a long period of time. However, their relationship takes an unexpected turn when Lee Joon Ho joins Daechi Chase, an academy that Seo Hye Jin works at, as a new instructor.

Now that they are facing each other as fellow teachers, there is subtle emotion in the exchange of their gazes.

In the still image below, Seo Hye Jin and Lee Joon Ho are standing closely in a classroom where the lights are turned off, amplifying viewers’ curiosity as to how their relationship will change.
