Watch: Im Siwan, Seolhyun, And More Bask In Their Newfound Leisure In Teasers For Upcoming Romance Drama

Oct 19, 2022

Seolhyun and Im Siwan’s upcoming drama has unveiled lighthearted new previews!

“Summer Strike” is an upcoming Genie TV original drama based on a popular webtoon. The romance story is about people who decide to quit their current lifestyles in the busy city and move to a small town to do nothing, where they’re ultimately able to find themselves.

The newly released posters and teaser capture the carefree and relaxed lifestyles of those who have simply chosen to not do anything. Each of the posters read what all of us have thought at least once: “Today and tomorrow too, ‘I don’t feel like doing anything.'”

Im Siwan plays Ahn Dae Bum, a genius who competed in math problems against Seoul National University students 20 years ago. After experiencing an unfortunate incident, he still managed to enter Seoul National University, but the shy Ahn Dae Bum now works as a librarian in a small seaside village named Angok.

Seolhyun will star opposite Im Siwan as Lee Yeo Reum, a 28-year-old who just three months ago, became a permanent employee at the company she has been working at for five years. However, she eventually declares a strike on her own life, quits her job, and just takes one backpack to Angok, where she lives in an empty billiard room.

In addition to Ahn Dae Bum and Lee Yeo Reum, there’s Kim Bom (Shin Eun Soo), a tough high school student who skips class but still ends up at the library, and the innocent Heo Jae Hoon (Bang Jae Min), who has a crush on Kim Bom. Last but not least is the scene stealer puppy named Winter.

In the new teaser, the main cast enjoys a moment of leisure as they bask in the lovely weather. They all comment, “Summer Strike,” and a touch of personality is added to each of their cuts as the drama’s title is personally handwritten by each actor.
