STUDIO X+U drama ‘Fair Competition’ (Planned by: STUDIO X+U / Produced by: YLAB FLEX, STUDIO X+U / Directed by: Kim Tae-hee / Written by: Kim Tae-hee, Min Ye-ji) receives a lot of attention every time a new poster or trailer is released. In particular, the special relationship between Yoo Je-yi (played by Lee Hye-ri) who approaches Woo Seul-gi (played by Jung Soo-bin) with sincerity and obsession in the midst of the fierce college entrance exam competition and Woo Seul-gi who becomes Yoo Je-yi’s target is stimulating the curiosity of potential viewers.

In the midst of this, ‘Fair Competition’ released a two-shot still of Lee Hye-ri and Jung Soo-bin on January 16, drawing attention. In the revealed still, Lee Hye-ri approaches transfer student Jung Soo-bin, who is wearing a different school uniform from Chaehwa Girls‘ High School, and talks to her. With her hands on the desk and leaning toward Jung Soo-bin, Lee Hye-ri shows her interest with her curious eyes and smile, taking the lead in the situation.



On the other hand, Jung Soo-bin stares at Lee Hye-ri with unwavering, intense eyes, creating tense tension. His resolute attitude hints at his unwillingness to back down. The subtle tension flowing between the two creates tense tension.

In the drama, Yoo Je-i, played by Lee Hye-ri, is a character everyone at Chaehwa Girls’ High School admires. He has everything and wants nothing more, but now has a new object of interest. However, Woo Seul-gi (played by Jung Soo-bin), the object of interest, doesn‘t seem to like this attention that other students envy. This has raised curiosity about how the relationship between the two, who have had different dreams from the beginning, will be portrayed in the future.

In relation to this, the production team of ‘Good Competition’ said, “Lee Hye-ri and Jung Soo-bin perfectly embodied the characters of Yoo Je-yi and Woo Seul-gi, respectively, and showed chemistry that exceeded expectations. The psychological warfare and tension that the two will create will be key elements that increase the immersion of the drama. “Please look forward to the changes in their emotions and relationships that they will show as the drama unfolds.”
