SBS's new Friday-Saturday drama Our Movie launched with a respectable start, hitting a national rating of 4.2% in its first episode.
🎥 A Poignant First Encounter
The premiere centers on film director Lee Je-ha (Namgoong Min) and terminally ill advisor Lee Da-eum (Jeon Ye-bin). Je-ha, haunted by sophomore slump, takes on the remake of his late father's film and meets Da-eum while seeking authenticity for his lead character.
💔 Heartrending Emotional Beats
Da-eum's cheerful demeanor masks her 6-month prognosis. A moment that moved viewers deeply: when she explains she films her surroundings because "I might not see them again." The exchange hints at a touching connection visualized in the drama's tentative title film, White Love.
✨ Strong Acting & Visuals Garner Praise
Critics and viewers praised the duo's performances and the drama's aesthetic appeal. Namgoong Min's controlled portrayal of a burdened artist and Jeon Ye-bin's bright yet fragile persona have earned early acclaim.
