The upcoming Korean series Love in Disguise has revealed new images ahead of its premiere, showing the peculiar and bewildering way its protagonist protects the chaebol heir she is tasked with watching over.
Love in Disguise is a romantic suspense drama centered on Yoon Yi Jun (played by Yim Si Wan), an arrogant chaebol heir turned murder suspect, and Kang Jae Hee (played by Seol In Ah), a former special forces soldier who infiltrates his life as his personal secretary to investigate him.
What is Love in Disguise about?
While looking for a new personal secretary, Yoon Yi Jun chooses Kang Jae Hee, a former special forces member, for the position. However, unbeknownst to him, Kang Jae Hee is actually a detective who has gone undercover to get close to Yoon Yi Jun and uncover crucial evidence in the murder case involving him.
As both embark on this precarious working relationship, Kang Jae Hee's unconventional approach to protecting Yoon Yi Jun constantly baffles him, sparking curiosity about how the relationship between the two characters will evolve.
Kang Jae Hee’s unusual way of protecting
For rookie personal secretary Kang Jae Hee, there is no concept of restraint when it comes to protecting Yoon Yi Jun. Her level of closeness is such that she practically plants herself in front of him, making it difficult to distinguish whether she is protecting him or keeping a close watch on him.
Although she seems like the perfect personal secretary on paper, her increasingly bewildering behavior will add a good dose of humor to the story.
Another distinctive trait of Kang Jae Hee as a personal secretary is her bold and unreserved approach. She gives her all to her duties, willing to put her own body at risk to do her job. Although she always achieves results, her unrefined methods make for an endearingly passionate work style that will keep the audience entertained.
