Actor Park Eunbin conveyed a charm unique to the drama that differs from the film "Spooky in Love".

On the 14th, at the Eliena Hotel in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, a press conference was held for tvN's new Saturday-Sunday drama "Spooky in Love." Director Lee Min-soo, actors Park Eunbin, Yang Sejong and Ong Seongwu attended the press conference and talked.

"Spooky in Love," based on a film of the same name, is an occult romance about a chaebol heiress who can see ghosts and a hot-blooded prosecutor who is most afraid of ghosts.

When asked about the burden of taking on the character that Son Ye-jin played in the original, Park Eunbin said, "I learned the term 'transmedia' for the first time. The idea of turning a film into a drama after some time felt like a new attempt to me and gave me a sense of expectation."

She explained, "Above all, the movie is just over two hours, but the drama is 12 episodes, so we incorporated at least six times more new settings. Looking at the overall framework, my Yeo-ri is Cheon Yeo-ri, but in the movie Son Ye-jin played the role of Kang Yeo-ri. Except for the name and the ability to see ghosts, many parts have been almost entirely transformed, so I proceeded thinking about the strengths unique to the "Spooky in Love" drama version."

She continued, "Yeo-ri's hands play an important role. Not only mine but the special property that allows ghosts to be seen by people who touch Cheon Yeo-ri's hand has been woven in, so I thought viewers could enjoy the drama much more richly. I also found the contrast between her role as the hotel CEO and her double life at night to be humanly attractive, and that part felt appealing. I hope viewers can enjoy a variety of flavors through the drama, whatever they want."

Meanwhile, "Spooky in Love" will premiere on the 18th at 9:10 p.m.
