The new JTBC Friday series "Light of Love," which first aired in Korea on March 6, delivers quiet emotion through the first moments of Yong Taeseo (Jinyoung) and Mo Una (Kim Minju), who became a light in each other's dark lives, captivating viewers' hearts. In the first episode, Yong Taeseo, who comes to his grandfather's house with his sick younger brother, meets Mo Una, who settled in Yonguri with her brother five years ago. During summer vacation, as they study together in the school library, Yong Taeseo and Mo Una become close, witnessing each other's struggles and starting to develop subtle feelings for one another. However, after Mo Una's sudden confession, their relationship becomes awkward. Even when the new semester begins, Yong Taeseo and Mo Una do not exchange a word until they unexpectedly reunite on a train. Following Yong Taeseo to a college entrance exam briefing, Mo Una decides to go to Seoul as well. Upon arriving in Seoul, they part ways, and while wandering, Mo Una visits Park Sohyun's (Kim Jihyun) house, whom she thought was her brother's girlfriend, only to discover a male roommate, shocking her. Meanwhile, Yong Taeseo, busy attending entrance exam briefings, reveals his sorrow over losing his parents in an accident during a hospital visit for ear symptoms, evoking deep emotions. At the end of a day filled with various feelings, the two reunite and find peace in each other. Through this, Yong Taeseo and Mo Una become much closer, holding hands with promises of being together forever. In the second episode, their sweet romance, now that their hearts are connected, makes viewers' hearts flutter. After finishing intense exam preparations and taking the college entrance exam, they spend joyful moments together at the sea in Gangneung and along the Han River in Seoul. Yong Taeseo reassures Mo Una, who is anxious about an uncertain future, saying, "If I wasn't sure up to this point, I wouldn't have started at all," and they share their first kiss. As they create various memories together, Yong Taeseo and Mo Una awkwardly yet sweetly nurture their love. Their adorable and heartwarming moments sneaking into Mo Una's room bring warm laughter. However, their happy days are short-lived as Yong Taeseo gets accepted into a university in Seoul while Mo Una is accepted into a university in Gangneung, creating distance between them. As they enter a long-distance relationship with the start of their university lives, they maintain a strong bond. Amidst this, Mo Una is shocked by the sudden marriage announcement of her brother Mo Seongkyu (Kim Taehun) and Park Sohyun, prompting her to head to Seoul. Sensing Mo Una's arrival in Seoul, Yong Taeseo rushes to her. When Mo Una sees the subway Yong Taeseo is on arriving at the platform, she smiles faintly, intensifying her emotions. "Light of Love" delivers a profound aftertaste as it portrays the story of two individuals with their own wounds meeting and building a world together, becoming a relationship that "makes each other possible." This lyrical story is interwoven with beautiful visuals and delicate, sensory direction, enhancing immersion. Additionally, Jinyoung and Kim Minju's passionate performances effectively depict the dazzling feelings of first love, announcing the birth of a high-quality "sensitive romance" with outstanding synergy. "Light of Love" airs two episodes back-to-back every Friday at 8:50 PM in Korea.
