Upcoming film “Love in the Big City” has unveiled a new trailer and character posters!
Based on the bestselling novel of the same name by Park Sang Young, “Love in the Big City” is a romance film about a pair of unlikely roommates. Although their lifestyles match in nearly every way—making them ideal partners for cohabitation—the two friends have polar-opposite views on romance.
Kim Go Eun will star as Jae Hee, a free-spirited woman who never worries about what others thinks, loves fearlessly and openly, and lives her life without regrets. On the other hand, her roommate Heung Soo (played by Noh Sang Hyun) detests the idea of love and romance. Having gotten used to hiding a major secret from other people, Heung Soo prefers to live life in isolation and distance himself from the world, but he still suffers from loneliness.
The tagline on the new character posters emphasizes just how meaningful the friendship between Jae Hee and Heung Soo is for both of them: “The one person who taught me that it’s enough for me to be exactly the way I am.”
Meanwhile, the newly released trailer begins by offering a glimpse of Jae Hee’s chaotic love life during her college days. Although Jae Hee suffers from people poking fun of how many guys she’s dated or spreading false rumors about her, she remains unfazed, telling Heung Soo, “So what? [It’s enough that] you know the truth. Rather than spending time worrying about things like that, I’d rather use that time to try doing all the things I can possibly do.”
After Jae Hee and Heung Soo draw up a contract to determine the rules of their cohabitation, they attempt to give each other love life advice, but they clearly don’t see eye to eye when it comes to romance. Despite the occasional fight, their friendship remains strong, and Jae Hee drunkenly tells Heung Soo, “No matter what anyone says, I’m always on your side!”
However, Heung Soo unexpectedly hurts Jae Hee’s feelings when she starts to tell him, “I understand you, but—“ and he angrily cuts her off by saying, “Who are you to understand me?”
Towards the end of the trailer, Heung Soo asks Jae Hee, “Are we weird?” Jae Hee responds by grabbing his hand and defensively shouting at someone off-screen, “No. Not at all!”
