The detective slaps on the cuffs, and the suspect twists them around to chain her wrist to his. tvN's new Monday–Tuesday drama 'Love in Disguise' (나의 유죄인간) premieres Monday, Oct. 19 at 8:50 p.m., and the two teasers already blur who is hunting whom.
The premise cheats, and we love it
Yoon Yi-jun (Im Si-wan) is a third-generation Taekang Group heir, a brat with a bank account and the prime suspect in a murder. Detective Kang Jae-hee (Seol In-ah), with a special-forces background, applies for his male personal assistant opening to get close.
They meet as suspect and detective, then reunite as assistant and boss, each guarding a secret while working the same case. Thriller romance, with handcuffs.
What the two teasers show
In the suspect teaser, Kang cuffs Yoon, and he turns the cuffs so they bind both their wrists. A line follows: "the crime of making my heart race."
In the confession teaser, Yoon checks himself in a mirror and tries to confess. Kang cuts him off: "Don't confess. I'm a man right now." The posters come in two versions with the princess-carry reversed.
Im Si-wan summed up the pair with one word, 'pure,' and noted the tension of a murder suspect and the detective on his trail. Seol In-ah framed it as 'from suspicion to trust' and pointed to the role-reversal chemistry.
Kim Jung-hyun (lawyer Kim Si-hyun) and Yeon-woo (chairman's secretary Lee Hye-jeong) pitch their couple as the grown-up romance.
