Netflix has confirmed a January 16th premiere for its upcoming romance series Can This Love Be Translated? , releasing a brand-new poster that spotlights stars Kim Seon Ho and Go Youn Jung.
Set to kick off 2026 with a dose of excitement and heart-fluttering chemistry, the series follows multilingual interpreter Joo Ho Jin (played by Kim Seon Ho ), who unexpectedly becomes the interpreter for global top star Cha Moo Hee ( Go Youn Jung ). What begins as a professional partnership quickly unravels into an unpredictable, globe-spanning romantic comedy.
The project comes from the famed Hong Sisters, the writers behind hits like Alchemy of Souls , Hotel Del Luna , and Master’s Sun , paired with director Yoo Young Eun, celebrated for the striking visuals and emotional detail of Bloody Heart . Even before release, anticipation has been sky-high.
Filmed across Japan, Canada, Italy, and more, the series promises lush scenery and an international flair. Kim Seon Ho—beloved for Netflix’s When Life Gives You Tangerines and tvN’s Start-Up —joins Go Youn Jung, who showcased her range in Alchemy of Souls 2 and Resident Playbook .
The newly unveiled poster shows Joo Ho Jin and Cha Moo Hee standing back-to-back, each wearing earphones—a nod to their quirky interpreter-and-superstar dynamic. The faintly blurred word “love” written in multiple languages hints at the unique, cross-cultural romance awaiting viewers.
Can This Love Be Translated? premieres January 16th, exclusively on Netflix.
