I ask that you give the drama’s first episode, which is infused with the hard work of the entire cast and crew, a great deal of interest and anticipation.”

[size=1.15]“Within the unusual subject matter of AR [Augmented Reality], the drama combines a wide variety of genres including suspense, romance, action, and thriller,” she remarked. “I also think that writer Song Jae Jung’s writing, which successfully mixes these diverse genres, is truly the best.”
[size=1.15]The actress added, “Viewers may be worried that the subject matter is unfamiliar, but AR simply plays the role of forcing the characters into each other’s lives and making their entanglement inevitable. Due to the fast-paced plot, thrilling story, and magical romance, viewers of all ages and genders will be able to enjoy the drama.”
