In 'Descendants of the Sun', Heo Nam-jun launches a campaign to recruit Lim Ji-yeon.

SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'Descendants of the Sun' (directed by Han Tae-seop, written by Kang Hyun-ju) is a romantic comedy drama depicting a tense, explosive romance between Shin Seo-ri (played by Lim Ji-yeon), a nameless actress possessed by the soul of the notorious Joseon villain Kang Dan-sim, and Cha Se-gye (played by Heo Nam-jun), a vicious chaebol heir described as a monster born of capitalism.

Following its premiere on the 8th, the series immediately claimed the number one spot on the global OTT platform Netflix's 'Top 10 Series in South Korea Today' for consecutive days, and also topped the weekly viewership ranking for 'Global Top 10 Non-English Shows' (as of May 4 to May 10, according to TUDUM), setting a new record as the first Friday-Saturday drama in SBS history and the fastest-rising drama in the network's history. 'Descendants of the Sun' is receiving intense interest from viewers worldwide.

The first two episodes depicted the arduous survival story of Kang Dan-sim, the notorious Joseon villain, possessing the body of Shin Seo-ri, a nameless actress in 21st-century South Korea. In the process, Seo-ri becomes deeply entangled with the vicious chaebol Cha Se-gye, marking the beginning of a dark romance and generating excitement. Particularly at the end of episode 2, Se-gye expresses interest in Seo-ri, who has become a trending celebrity through the 'Hee-bin possession meme,' after declaring, "I need you. Desperately." This has sparked curiosity about their dramatically reversed relationship.

In connection with this, the production team of 'Descendants of the Sun' released stills of Seo-ri and Se-gye visiting a meat restaurant ahead of the broadcast of episode 3 on the 15th.

In the stills, the two are seen sitting alone across from each other at the meat restaurant. The sight of the vicious chaebol Se-gye, who would be expected to dine at a high-end restaurant, sitting in a modest meat restaurant creates a surprising comedic effect, while the fact that the restaurant reflects Seo-ri's personal taste adds a peculiar sense of excitement.

Seo-ri cannot hide her joy upon seeing the Hanwoo beef on the grill. As Seo-ri's bright expression, unable to take her eyes off the meat, brings a smile, Se-gye's gaze, which never leaves Seo-ri, further piques interest.

Will Seo-ri accept the contract from the 'fallen noble' Se-gye? Anticipation for the main broadcast of 'Descendants of the Sun,' where the unpredictable relationship between Seo-ri and Se-gye will continue, is soaring.

Episode 3 of 'Descendants of the Sun' will air at 9:50 p.m. on the 15th.
