A breath-stopping moment just before the kiss between Park Hye-soo and Lee Jung-sik has been captured.
In the 5th episode of the KBS Joy Monday-Tuesday drama 'Dear. M' (written by Lee Seul, directed by Park Jin-woo and Seo Joo-wan, produced by Monster Union and Playlist), set to air tonight, the scene just one second before the heart-thumping kiss between Park Hye-soo (playing the role of Majua) and Lee Jung-sik (playing the role of Moon-jun) has been revealed, raising viewers' excitement levels.
The released stills depict Majua and Moon-jun, with cheeks flushed under the night sky, carefully gazing at each other. Moon-jun then slowly approaches, cupping Majua's face with both hands as she shyly closes her eyes. The distance between the two gradually narrows, and finally, as their faces come close enough to touch, an air of tension that seems to swallow their breath is conveyed.
The scene marks a decisive moment where the innocent crush that Majua has been harboring finally leads to a mutual romance with Moon-jun. Notably, Park Hye-soo vividly portrays Majua's pure emotions through detailed expressions that capture the tension, thrill, and fluttering of the first kiss, while Lee Jung-sik enhances the romantic climax with a warm yet sincere gaze, increasing viewers' immersion.
Meanwhile, as the romance between Majua and Moon-jun approaches completion, the complex jealousy and rivalry ignited by Cha Min-ho (played by Jung Jae-hyun), who belatedly realizes his feelings for her, are expected to intensify. This raises anticipation for the fiery love triangle unfolding between the three.
The production team noted, 'Jung Jae-hyun increases viewers' immersion through his poignant emotional performance toward an old female friend he has long regarded as his own, while Lee Jung-sik enhances it even further with his soft charisma and gentle charm.' They added, 'In tonight's 5th episode, as the emotional lines of the three deepen, please watch where each of their true feelings lead.'
