The upcoming live-action series<\/a> Dear X will release its first four episodes on November 6 at 6:00 p.m. KST on TVING, a Korean streaming platform.<\/p>\n Dear X is a melodrama thriller that follows Ah-jin Baek (You-jung Kim), a top star who has built her success by stacking and trampling over the scars of her childhood. Jun-seo Yoon (Young-dae Kim) is Ah-jin’s lifelong protector, safe haven, and fatal weakness.<\/p>\n Do-hoon Kim takes on the role of Jae-oh Kim, whose life’s purpose changes with just one word from Ah-jin. Having survived years of abuse from his father, Jae-oh finds meaning in Ah-jin, sharing her pain and willingly becoming her shadow. His dangerous loyalty stands in stark contrast to Jun-seo’s devotion.<\/p>\n At a press conference held on October 30 in Seoul, the director Eung-bok Lee described the show as \u201ca dark romantic thriller about a devil with the face of an angel and two angels trying to protect her,\u201d adding that he \u201clearned a lot from You-jung Kim during production.\u201d<\/p>\n \n Dear X marks TVING’s first global co-production with HBO Max<\/a>, and will be released simultaneously in South Korea and in 18 countries across the Asia-Pacific region.
