New teaser of Serendipity’s Embrace

In the newly released preview, Kang Hoo Young waits casually for a blind date when Lee Hong Joo unexpectedly strolls in and takes the seat opposite him. "You're here for a blind date, right?" she asks, smiling cheerfully. "Hi, I'm Hye Ji's friend, Lee Hong Joo."

Taken aback at the sight of Lee Hong Joo after a decade, Kang Hoo Young removes his sunglasses, memories of their high school days flooding back. "Lee Hong Joo," he exclaims incredulously. "Is that really you?" Before the bewildered Lee Hong Joo can make sense of his words, Kang Hoo Young's intended blind date arrives. It's then that Lee Hong Joo notices her own blind date seated across the room.

Jumping up in dismay, Lee Hong Joo blurts out, “I mistook you for the wrong person. I hope the two of you have a wonderful time together!” With that, she hurriedly makes her way to her actual blind date, leaving Kang Hoo Young watching her depart with a wistful expression. Serendipity’s Embrace will premiere on July 22 at 8:40 PM KST, which is 5:10 PM IST.
