Korea‘s first short-form drama platform, ‘TopReels’, is releasing the occult romantic comedy ‘Satan’s Girlfriend’.

‘Satan‘s Girlfriend’, which will be released on the 14th, tells the story of a bride who sells her soul to Satan in place of her prospective groom’s death before her wedding and a boyfriend who loves her to the end after she was changed by Satan. The cast includes Lee Je-yeon, Kim Seung-hye, and Park Byung-hyun.

Lee Je-yeon, who plays the central role of Satan, explained, “Satan, with his dark and intense charm, is a being that shakes up people‘s fates, but he is also a character who has a somewhat quirky and lovable side.”

Kim Seung-hye, who plays Anna, a woman who sells her soul to Satan for the person she loves, said, “I found the sight of Anna standing at the crossroads of choices surrounding love and fate interesting. The episodes that unfold as the relationship with Satan becomes entangled add to the fun,” he said, introducing the appeal of the work and characters.

Lastly, Park Byung-hyun, who plays Anna’s fiancé Samuel, said, “Samuel’s sincere attempt to not let go of love even in tense moments between life and death is another point of ‘Satan’s Girlfriend.’”

In particular, the drama with occult elements and the romance portrayed by the unique characters are expected to fully recharge the dopamine of the viewers. Attention is being paid to what kind of occult romantic comedy the three of them will create.

‘Top Releases’ shows a successful combination of short-form and K-drama. It is quickly emerging as a major short-form trend with a tightly woven introduction, development, turn, and conclusion in a short 2-minute period to suit the eye level of busy modern people, and vertical screen direction. ‘TopReels’, which is providing an extremely immersive short-form drama format that is more realistic than webtoons and boasts a faster development than existing dramas, is also anticipated for the works that it will present in the future.

‘Satan’s Girlfriend’ will be available for viewing on ‘TopReels’, Korea‘s first short-form drama platform, starting on the 14th.
