Webtoon inspired K-drama Head Over Heels weaves romance and prophecy, with Cho Yi-hyun and Choo Young-woo at the heart
Set to premiere on June 23, 2025, Head Over Heels is an upcoming South Korean fantasy-romance drama that offers more than just a love story, it's a tale of fate, sacrifice, and second chances.
Based on the popular webtoon by Ahn Su-min, the series reimagines first love through the lens of supernatural forces and emotional stakes.
From webtoon to the screen: A story of love, fate, and sacrifice
The drama follows Park Seong-ah, a young woman born into a lineage of shamans, played by Cho Yi-hyun. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she begins to have prophetic dreams about Bae Gyeon-woo, her first love, portrayed by Choo Young-woo. These dreams aren't just nostalgic, they're warnings.
Gyeon-woo is destined for a tragic end, and Seong-ah becomes determined to rewrite that fate, no matter the cost.
[첫 만남 티저] 위험(?)할 정도로 잘생긴 추영우에게 한눈에 반해버린 조이현👀💗 운명도 뒤바꿀 첫사랑이 시작됐다! #견우와선녀 EP.0
Rather than taking the typical rom-com route, Head Over Heels dives into the emotional weight of knowing someone's future while still being powerless to stop it. That tension between love and helplessness fuels the show's central conflict. She needs to manage using her powers, the doubt of those she talks with and her continued feelings for Gyeon-woo.
Visually, the show promises a moody and ethereal atmosphere, supported by tvN's high production standards and Studio Dragon's creative storytelling. Directed by Kim Yong-wan and written by Yang Ji-hoon, the series blends heartfelt drama with suspense and supernatural mystery. The chemistry between the leads, previously praised in other projects, adds another layer of emotional depth.
The supporting cast, including Cha Kang-yoon, Choo Ja-hyun, and Yoon Byung-hee, enrich the narrative with layers of folklore, spiritual tension, and subtle comic relief.
Whether you're a fan of slow-burn romance, spiritual themes, or emotional storytelling, Head Over Heels is poised to strike a chord with global audiences.
Streaming on Amazon Prime for international viewers, the series aims to attract both fans of the original webtoon and newcomers looking for a fresh take on love, destiny, and inner strength. In a sea of dramas, Head Over Heels could end up being 2025's most heartfelt and memorable ones.
