OMG! 🤯 Bae In-hyuk, Noh Jung-ui, & Park Seo-ham Drop Chaotic-Cute Rom-Com ‘I’ll Give You the Universe’! ✨
Get ready, K-drama stans! Hello Korea has just received exclusive intel on tvN’s highly anticipated new Wednesday-Thursday drama, ‘I’ll Give You the Universe’ (우주를 줄게), and it’s set to deliver a major dose of heartwarming chaos. Featuring a dream cast led by Bae In-hyuk, Noh Jung-ui, and the charismatic Park Seo-ham, this youth rom-com promises all the feels and a totally fresh take on family dynamics.
Mark your calendars because ‘I’ll Give You the Universe’ officially kicks off on February 4th at 10:40 PM KST on tvN. This exciting new series, planned by Studio Dragon and produced by Scene & Studio Inc., is directed by the critically acclaimed duo Lee Hyun-seok and Jung Yeo-jin, with a witty script from Soo Jin and Shin Yi-hyun. The premise? An unlikely pair of in-laws, Seon Tae-hyung and Woo Hyun-jin, find their worlds colliding when they’re suddenly tasked with raising their adorable 20-month-old nephew, Uju (played by Park Yu-ho). It’s a classic ‘strangers-to-family’ trope, but with a chaotic cohabitation twist that guarantees both laughs and heartwarming moments as they grow through their new ‘universe’ – little Uju.
The buzz started brewing early with the release of initial still cuts on January 13th, showcasing Seon Tae-hyung (Bae In-hyuk) and Woo Hyun-jin (Noh Jung-ui) already deep into their unconventional co-parenting journey. We’re talking street-side drama, folks! The photos captured a hilarious spat where Tae-hyung is absolutely drenched and fuming, while Hyun-jin tries to calm him down with a flustered expression. And of course, the adorable Uju is just chilling, watching the chaos unfold, seemingly covered in mysterious stains. It’s safe to say, we’re already bracing ourselves for the epic storms Uju will bring into their lives!
First look at tvN’s new Wednesday-Thursday drama, ‘I’ll Give You the Universe’
Let’s get to know the incredible cast bringing these characters to life:
- Bae In-hyuk as Seon Tae-hyung: He’s the seemingly prickly but secretly soft-hearted photo assistant. Don’t let the ‘assistant’ title fool you; Tae-hyung is a true talent, envied by main photographers!
- Noh Jung-ui as Woo Hyun-jin: Our queen of positive energy and a passionate job seeker dreaming of a perfectly normal life. Her plans take an unexpected (and adorable!) detour when she commits to raising her nephew, Uju.
- Park Seo-ham as Park Yoon-seong: Get ready for some major second lead syndrome (or maybe not?!)! He plays Hyun-jin‘s first love, a character who’s got both the stunning visuals and impressive capabilities, sure to dial up the romance.
The off-screen chemistry is already sparking! Bae In-hyuk couldn’t stop praising Noh Jung-ui, noting, “Filming with her was incredibly comfortable. She’s an actress with so much to learn from, bringing amazing energy to any set.” Noh Jung-ui agreed, highlighting Bae In-hyuk‘s knack for making everyone happy: “Our acting synergy was fantastic, naturally drawing you in, and we had so much fun because our humor aligned perfectly.” She playfully dubbed Seon Tae-hyung and Woo Hyun-jin‘s relationship as ‘Du-Jjon-Ku’ – a unique Korean phrase hinting at their unexpected yet endearing ‘sticky’ bond, evolving into each other’s greatest strength.
And let’s talk about the absolute ‘healing’ vibes with little Uju! Bae In-hyuk shared a heartwarming anecdote: “Filming with Park Yu-ho was pure joy. I still remember him hugging me during a shoot, then suddenly grabbing my face and planting a sweet kiss on my cheek!” Noh Jung-ui added, “It felt so natural becoming close aunt and uncle figures. We honestly think viewers will instantly connect with Hyun-jin and Tae-hyung and fall completely in love with Uju!” We at Hello Korea totally agree; brace your hearts!
This drama feels like the perfect blend of chaotic family fun and subtle, budding romance – exactly what our playlists need right now. The cast’s synergy already promises a show that’s going to be both deeply relatable and incredibly binge-worthy!
Don’t miss the premiere of ‘I’ll Give You the Universe’ on February 4th! We’re counting down the days until we dive into this charming new K-drama universe.
