Second Shot at Love: Sooyoung & Gong Myung’s Sober Romance Begins
tvN’s new Monday-Tuesday drama ‘Second Shot at Love’ premieres May 12, blending laughter, romance, and real-life family drama.
Originally titled ‘Cheers to You’ (Korean: 금주를 부탁해), this heartfelt rom-com follows Han Geum-joo (Choi Sooyoung), a car mechanic forced to quit drinking, and Seo Eui-jun (Gong Myung), her alcohol-free first love turned local clinic director. As their paths cross again in their hometown, they face a second shot at love—completely sober.
#1. Strong Cast Chemistry: Sooyoung, Gong Myung, Kim Sung-ryung & More
Choi Sooyoung and Gong Myung lead the drama with natural chemistry and emotional depth, supported by veteran actors Kim Sung-ryung, Kim Sang-ho, and Jo Yoon-hee. Together, they create a believable family unit filled with laughs, tensions, and touching moments.
#2. From Drinking Buddies to Soulmates: A Clean Love Story
Geum-joo, once proud of her drinking lifestyle, faces a turning point after being labeled an alcoholic. Meanwhile, Eui-jun is a principled teetotaler. Once close in high school, the two reconnect after years apart and begin building something deeper than their past connection—as “soulmates,” not just “alcohol mates.”
#3. Comedy, Chaos, and Comfort: Life in Boocheon Village
Set in the lively Boocheon Village, the story features a quirky family trying to break their drinking habits and rediscover connection. From laugh-out-loud drunken mishaps to moving moments of healing, the show balances humor with heart. Local backdrops like Boocheon Lake and the town’s food alley add charm and realism.
‘Second Shot at Love’ airs May 12 at 8:50 PM KST on tvN. Tune in for a refreshing take on healing, family, and finding love without the buzz.
