'Spooky Romance' star Park Eun-bin revealed how the drama differs from the original film of the same name.

On the 14th, a press conference for tvN's new Saturday-Sunday drama 'Spooky Romance' (script by Choi Jung-mi, directed by Lee Min-soo) was held at Ellyena Hotel in Seoul Gangnam-gu. Attendees included director Lee Min-soo and actors Park Eun-bin, Yang Se-jong, and Ong Seong-woo.

'Spooky Romance' depicts the chaotic occult romance between a chaebol heiress who can see ghosts and a passionate prosecutor who fears them the most. It is a remake of the film with the same title.

Park Eun-bin said, "I first learned the term 'transmedia' through this project." She added, "Transforming a film into a drama after some time felt like a new attempt, which raised my expectations."

Continuing on the differences from the original work, she stated, "Above all, while the film runs about two hours, our drama spans 12 episodes. We have incorporated settings more than six times greater." She explained, "From an overall perspective, actress Son Ye-jin portrayed Yeo-ri in the film. Except for the fact that Yeo-ri can see ghosts, almost everything is new. There are many transformed elements."

She further noted, "Among special traits, Yeo-ri's hands play a crucial role. Not only she, but anyone whose hands touch hers can also see ghosts. Due to this unique setting, I believe viewers will be able to enjoy the drama even more richly."

Additionally, Park Eun-bin remarked, "The contrast between her appearance as a hotel representative and her double life feels charming. I hope viewers can enjoy various flavors through the drama."

Yang Se-jong shared, "My character differs from the original work. Whenever I felt burdened, I focused more on the script. I believe I worked hard with Park Eun-bin and the director to discover something new and conducted many rehearsals."

Regarding behind-the-scenes moments, he added, "One aspect that made my character appear diverse was how much fun it was reacting in surprise upon seeing ghosts on set. I am actually a coward myself, so I think those elements will come across as entertaining."

Meanwhile, 'Spooky Romance' will premiere on the 18th at 9:10 p.m.
