Choi Soo-young transforms into Han Geum-joo, a master mechanic who is passionate about work and alcohol.

The new tvN drama “Second Shot at Love,” which will premiere on May 12, 2025 (Monday), is generating excitement by revealing Han Geum-joo’s daily life through an on-and-off look, hinting at a reversal charm.

“Second Shot at Love” is a romantic comedy drama about a woman who viewed herself as an ordinary drinker and, after reuniting with her first love who hates alcohol, challenges herself to go sober for the first time.

In the drama, Choi Soo-young plays Han Geum-joo, a 10-year veteran mechanic working for the top automobile company in the country. Han Geum-joo is a skilled mechanic who can fix any problem as long as she has a wrench, and is a genuine alcohol enthusiast who attends every drinking session after work. She is someone who excels at her job and enjoys her drinks, making the title of social life master fitting.

Published photos reveal the charm of Han Geum-joo, whose professional mechanic persona intersects with her everyday life as an alcohol enthusiast. Her sharp gaze at the vehicle diagnostic tool, along with her hair tied roughly and her work uniform fitted tightly, exudes the aura of a seasoned veteran.

In addition, Han Geum-joo’s rich daily life, complemented by a bottle of soju with instant noodles, captures attention. Her seemingly indifferent, calm expression suggests that alcohol is not only a familiar pause for her but also a close friend that has seamlessly integrated into her daily life. A drink feels like a habit and a source of joy for Geum-joo, something that seems essential.

However, signs of change begin for Han Geum-joo. The sincere encouragement of her first love, Seo Ui-joon (played by Gong Myoung), to go sober, along with unexpected incidents, make her stop for the first time before the word 'sober.' This raises curiosity about what kind of turning point Han Geum-joo's first challenge of sobriety will create in her life.

The new tvN drama “Second Shot at Love,” depicting Choi Soo-young's first challenge with sobriety, will premiere on May 12, 2025 (Monday) at 8:50 p.m.
