The drama adaptation of Love in the Big City is making a huge splash right out of the gate.
The show follows Ko Young (played by Nam Yoon Su ), a young gay man navigating love and friendships in Seoul as he grapples with the complexities of a changing society. The screenplay is based on the bestselling novel by Park Sang Young, who was also a finalist for the 2022 International Booker Prize.

The series is inspired by four stories from a collection of interconnected short stories: “Jaehee,” “A Bite of Rockfish, Taste the Universe,” “Love in the Big City,” and “Late Rainy Season Vacation.”
Taking a cue from Hollywood’s approach of using different directors for each episode, Son Tae Gyum, Hur Jin Ho, Hong Ji Young, and Kim Se In each directed two of the eight episodes, bringing their unique styles to the table and creating a drama with a cinematic feel worthy of its name.
