The first teaser for SBS’s highly anticipated Friday-Saturday drama, Love Scout, has been released, giving fans a glimpse into the evolving relationship between Han Ji Min and Lee Joon Hyuk in this workplace romance.

A Story of Unexpected Connections

Love Scout follows Ji Yoon (Han Ji Min), the brilliant yet workaholic CEO of a headhunting company called People’s, and Yoo Eun Ho (Lee Joon Hyuk), her secretary who appears flawless in both his professional and personal life. The teaser reveals the professional dynamic between the two, which slowly begins to shift as unexpected emotions surface.

Teaser Highlights: A Hint of Romance

The teaser showcases Ji Yoon as a competent leader completely immersed in her work, while Eun Ho supports her with quiet attentiveness. But beneath the surface, subtle moments hint at something deeper.

In one scene, Ji Yoon offers Eun Ho a cup of coffee, brushing it off as an accident: “I accidentally pressed the button wrong and got an extra one.” Eun Ho’s response, “Shall we drink it together?” adds a playful undertone, marking the first crack in their strictly professional relationship.

On a rainy day, as Eun Ho shields Ji Yoon with an umbrella, her internal realization—“I’m doomed”—perfectly captures the flutter of unexpected feelings. Ji Yoon, who has always relied on logic, begins to question whether Eun Ho is more than just her secretary.

What to Expect from Love Scout

The drama promises to deliver a blend of workplace antics and heartfelt romance, exploring themes of ambition, vulnerability, and the unpredictable nature of love. Fans can look forward to Han Ji Min’s nuanced portrayal of Ji Yoon’s gradual self-discovery and Lee Joon Hyuk’s charming turn as Eun Ho, who may just be the catalyst for her transformation.

Love Scout is set to premiere on January 3, with more information about its OTT streaming platform expected to be announced soon.
