Actor Kim Dong-gyu has transformed into a sweet 'good guy' in 'The Absolute Value of Romance'.

Coupang Play's series 'The Absolute Value of Romance' (script by Lee Min-ju, directed by Lee Tae-gon and Kim Jun-hyeong) is a high school series featuring handsome male teachers as protagonists, where a high school girl writes BL novels and unexpectedly encounters them in real life, becoming the central figure in a dramatic school life. The first four episodes were simultaneously released on the 17th.

In the drama, Kim Dong-gyu plays Yoon Dong-ju, a Korean language teacher who is kind and friendly to everyone, leaving a lasting impression with his warm, spring-like charm.

On this day, Yoon Dong-ju was assigned to Mulim Girls' High School, the school attended by Yeo Ui-ju (played by Kim Hyang-gi), and captured the hearts of high school girls with his neat and handsome visuals. He resolved a small misunderstanding that arose between Yeo Ui-ju, who lived in the same neighborhood, and Gao Su (played by Cha Hak-yeon), even before their first day of work, by offering a sincere apology from the middle.

In particular, he added a warm atmosphere with his considerate demeanor, such as caring for his roommates' breakfast and looking after Gao Su, who had lost her glasses, which were like a part of her.

Yoon Dong-ju also appears with another charm within the web novel 'We Were Friends' written by Yeo Ui-ju. Portraying the character 'Choi Yoon' in the novel, he always steps back from others but reveals firm emotions when it comes to love, enhancing the series' immersion.

Kim Dong-gyu evokes natural excitement with his plain gaze and gentle tone in reality, while in the novel, he delicately portrays the multi-layered charm of the character through deeper emotional expression. By skillfully embodying this three-dimensional character that spans between reality and fiction, he is firmly establishing his 'good guy' charm.

Having previously delivered a dense emotional performance as Han Seong, a Sungkyunkwan scholar with a poignant love story in last year's MBC drama 'The Moon Flows on the River', anticipation builds for what kind of passionate performance he will bring to 'The Absolute Value of Romance' to add vitality to the series.

Meanwhile, Kim Dong-gyu's first leading role, 'The Absolute Value of Romance', will be released every Friday at 8 p.m. on Coupang Play.
