New teasers are out for KBS’s rom-com weekender Magnificence and Mr. Romantic, which has gone via identify adjustments like an incognito royal on the run. Previously Magnificence and the Devoted, after which the very literal Magnificence and the Pure Man, the drama has now determined to highlight the center of our Prince Charming in its newest title.

It’s one other day at work for our main man Ji Hyun-woo (Younger Woman and Gentleman), and the chyron introduces him as Go Pil-seung, a rookie assistant PD who’s nonetheless moist behind the ears. As he waits for the elevator, he takes a name from a buddy and shares some life updates concerning the drama he’s at present engaged on.

The star of the present is high actress Park Do-ra, performed by Im Soo-hyang (Kokdu: Season of Deity), however simply the mere point out of her identify elicits an exasperated sigh from Pil-seung. Apparently, she offers the crew a lot bother that they’ve given her a brand new moniker amongst themselves, not-so-subtly referring to the way in which she by no means fails to lift their heckles.

As Pil-seung rants away, he out of the blue feels a chill down his backbone, and he turns round to seek out Do-ra smiling ominously at him, having heard each phrase. “Are you achieved cursing me out?” Do-ra asks wryly, and Pil-seung can solely swallow nervously in response.

Elevators appear to be a sizzling spot for battle, as a result of the second teaser has Pil-seung boarding one, meekly bowing his head when he realizes Do-ra is already inside, and turning away to cover a barely-suppressed grimace. His concern isn’t unfounded, as a result of Do-ra has a litany of complaints that she isn’t afraid to make identified. She’s fed up with the primary PD for his infinite retakes and lack of preparation, and he or she needs Pil-seung to be the messenger.

Set on getting her approach, Do-ra sulks that she’ll refuse to movie any extra if a scene exceeds three takes. All Pil-seung can do is acquiesce obediently, with a purpose to appease the disgruntled Do-ra. That’s, till the elevator doorways open to disclose the primary PD on the opposite facet. Within the blink of an eye fixed, Do-ra’s demeanor does a 180 — her frown widens right into a beatific smile as she greets the PD in a high-pitched aegyo tone, leaving a dumbfounded Pil-seung speechless. Ha, Do-ra often is the bane of Pil-seung’s existence proper now, but when the present’s latest poster is any indication, she’s on the way in which to changing into his Belle.

Helmed by PD Hong Seok-gu (Do-it-yourself Love Story) and author Kim Sa-kyung (Younger Woman and Gentleman), who beforehand collaborated on My Solely One, Magnificence and Mr. Romantic premieres on March 23.
