KBS 2TV has unveiled a premiere teaser for Lee Seung Gi and Lee Se Young’s upcoming drama!
Based on the hit web novel of the same name, “Love According to the Law” (literal translation; also known as “The Law Cafe”) is a romantic comedy about Kim Jung Ho (Lee Seung Gi), a genius former prosecutor-turned-libertine landlord, and Kim Yu Ri (Lee Se Young), the eccentric lawyer that becomes his new tenant when she opens a “law café” in his building.
The funny new teaser uses an interview format to get in-depth details about Kim Jung Ho and Kim Yu Ri’s relationship. After first meeting in high school, continuing their friendship throughout college, and then reuniting as adults, both characters share their personal thoughts on their 17-year-long one-sided love.
The clip begins in their high school days with Kim Yu Ri excitedly running up to Kim Jung Ho. In his interview, Kim Jung Ho seriously states, “It’s been so long that I don’t know when it started.” Kim Yu Ri adds, “There’s no way to know when it all began.”
But right after, Kim Yu Ri has her arms crossed as she scoffs and asks, “Did I like him?” before erupting into laughter. Similarly, Kim Jung Ho looks in disbelief at Kim Yu Ri and says with a big laugh, “Me?”
Contrasting their cute and lovable school days, Kim Yu Ri and Kim Jung Ho are completely different people when they meet again as tenant and landlord. Given how familiar they are with each other, the two skip all awkwardness and just get off to a rocky start. Kim Jung Ho angrily shouts, “Get out right now!” Kim Yu Ri responds with just as much annoyance, “Enough is enough! Enough!”
Their battle gets an added layer of tension when Kim Yu Ri sends Kim Jung Ho an official document for her tenancy. She explains, “If you really have to kick me out, then I’m going to make it complicated. I’m going to be a bother.” Kim Yu Ri immediately puts her plan into action as she finds her way into Kim Jung Ho’s home while drunk, making him comment, “She gets even more selfish as time goes on!”
However, the two are reminded of their past when they reunite on a spring day in a familiar spot under a cherry blossom tree. When asked what kind of relationship she has with Kim Jung Ho, Kim Yu Ri sweetly shares, “When we’re together, my life feels alive, and no matter what I do, I feel assured.”
