A new dramatic story with a romantic and comedic flavor.

"Second Chance for Love" is a 12-episode romantic comedy series that airs on tvN every Monday and Tuesday at 8:50 PM. The story revolves around Han Geum-joo (played by Choi So-young), an auto mechanic who has been working for a prestigious Korean company for 10 years. She has a good relationship with her colleagues, but she is addicted to drinking alcohol.

But her life changes completely when she suddenly meets her first love, Seo Ui-joon (played by Gong Myung), a former doctor who has returned from Seoul to his hometown to work as director of a public health center. Strangely, Ui-joon can't stand alcohol, creating an internal conflict for Geum-joo that prompts her to make a sudden decision to quit drinking.

Realistic characters and remarkable acting

One of the most important reasons for the series' success is the performance of the actors who brilliantly embodied the characters:

Choi Soo-young as Han Geum-joo: A strong and cheerful character, but suffers from deep inner conflicts. Gong Myung as Seo Ui Joon: The quiet doctor who holds unexpected secrets. Jo Yoon-hee as sister Han Hyun-joo. Kim Sung-ryong as a worried mother for her daughter Geum-joo. Kim Sang Ho plays the ever-supportive father.

Each character adds a human and dramatic dimension that makes viewers feel like they are part of the story.

"Geo Clouds"... a name that carries deep symbolism

The Korean name of the heroine, Geum-joo, doesn't just refer to the character of the series, but also carries a special meaning in the Korean language, literally translating to "abstaining from alcohol." This clever symbolic connection between the name and the story adds depth to the heroine's character and enhances the symbolic character of the series.
