Coupang Play series ‘Newtopia’ has released a couple chemistry still of ‘Jae-yoon (Park Jung-min)’ and ‘Young-joo (Ji-soo)’, which is even more heartbreaking because of the separation between a soldier and a bear god.
Coupang Play series ‘Newtopia’ is a story about soldier Jae-yoon and bear god Yeong-joo running towards each other through downtown Seoul that has been attacked by zombies.
In the released stills, you can catch a glimpse of the fresh love story of soldier ‘Jae-yoon’, who only thinks of ‘Young-joo’ even when zombies swarm, and confident bear god ‘Young-joo’, who only runs towards her boyfriend even when the world falls apart. ‘Jae-yoon’ was the only one who was indifferent to ‘Young-joo’, the goddess of engineering who always attracts attention, and he was such an ironclad man that he even refused ‘Young-joo’‘s group project offer. ‘Young-ju’ also tried hard to ignore ‘Jae-yoon’, who always embarrassed her, but as if by fate, ‘Jae-yoon’ is hired at the ice cream shop where ‘Young-ju’ works, and the two soon begin to develop feelings for each other.
In the still cut where ‘Young-ju’ confesses her feelings to ‘Jae-yoon’, you can feel the excitement and fresh tension before they become lovers, and you can also feel the chemistry between Park Jung-min and Ji-soo, who seem like a real campus couple, as the two of them flirt with each other without warning. The chemistry between the two people who perfectly completed the story of a couple who do not hide their instinct to go straight for each other even when a horde of zombies appears raises expectations.
At the production presentation held on the 7th, Park Jung-min said, “What I respected about actress Ji-soo was that she was always smiling on set. I learned a lot from watching her on set,” and Ji-soo said, “There was a scene with a phone call with Jae-yoon, and she came to the set even though there was no filming schedule. ”I was so surprised and was able to immerse myself in acting thanks to it,“ they said, praising each other and foreshadowing the great chemistry the two will show in the drama.
The exciting meeting of popular actor Park Jung-min and global star Jisoo and the birth of the ‘Zomcom’ couple that stimulates your romantic cells, the Coupang Play series ‘Newtopia’, will be released for the first time on Coupang Play at 8 PM on Friday, February 7.
