'Starting today I'm human' Kim Hye-yoon, Ro-mon arrives with out-of-this-world rom-com chemistry.
SBS's new Friday-Saturday drama 'Starting today I'm human' (written by Park Chan-young·Jo Ah-young, directed by Kim Jeong-kwon, planned and produced by StudioS, Binge Works) on the 15th released character posters of Eun-ho (played by Kim Hye-yoon) and Kang Si-yeol (played by Ro-mon), teasing a full-fledged human-world shabby romance.
'Starting today I'm human' is a fantasy romance about an MZ nine-tailed fox who does not want to become human and a self-loving human whose collision leads to messy salvation. It depicts the delightful and heart-fluttering 'hate-love' romance between a born-single nine-tailed fox who has tried everything except dating and a world-class soccer star whose fate has changed. It is counted among the anticipated works to open the 2026 SBS drama slate.
After a long wait the veil has finally been lifted, and the character posters released that day pique curiosity about Eun-ho and Kang Si-yeol, who will be entangled in a special relationship. First, Eun-ho, the 'golden child of the nine-tailed fox world,' captivates with a lovely smile. The multiple tails hidden behind her and the fox bead illustration reveal Eun-ho's mysterious identity. Eun-ho, an eccentric MZ nine-tailed fox who prefers spending money and living like a human to accumulating virtue to become human. The phrase 'Good deeds far away, men even farther' makes one wonder how she has survived in the human world.
Meanwhile, the two gazes of Kang Si-yeol, the 'world-class soccer player who may be arrogant but never lazy,' are full of justified confidence. Kang Si-yeol, who shone brighter than his team while playing as a forward for famous overseas clubs and made a name for himself as a soccer star. As the phrase 'embodiment of self-discipline, ultimate self-love!' suggests, the success he achieved was the result of thorough effort and practice. Attention is focused on what changes will come to his perfect life because of the nine-tailed fox Eun-ho, who put a tackle on it.
Above all, expectations are higher than ever for the meeting of Kim Hye-yoon, the 'chemistry fairy' who has shown exceptional chemistry with co-stars in every work, and Ro-mon, the 'rising star' who embarks on an exciting transformation with a full-fledged romantic comedy challenge. The fresh combination of the two and the peculiar chemistry it will create even makes viewers' anticipation flutter.
Meanwhile, SBS's new Friday-Saturday drama 'Starting today I'm human' will premiere on Jan. 16, 2026 (Fri.) at 9:50 p.m.
