Seung Hyo leads a peaceful life as a successful architect and CEO, though his relationship with Seok Ryu remains a troubling aspect. Their dynamic shifts unexpectedly when Seok Ryu returns to town after facing her first taste of failure. Previously accustomed to success with top grades and achievements, she finds herself challenged after entering a global corporation.

The trailer highlights the unchanged dynamics between the childhood friends despite their time apart. They still banter and maintain a love-hate relationship, with Seok Ryu retaining her assertiveness from childhood. The trailer also captures their endearing moments, underscoring their complex friendship. As the trailer concludes, Seok Ryu is asked about her relationship with Seung Hyo, to which she casually responds that he’s her mother’s friend’s son. However, the narrative suggests there might be more between them.
‘Love Next Door’ is scheduled to premiere on August 17 at 9:20 PM KST (5:50 PM IST) on TVN and will simultaneously stream on Netflix. Fans eagerly anticipate the drama, buoyed by the chemistry hinted at in the trailer and the successful collaboration of director Yoo Je-won and writer Shin Ha-eun, who previously worked together on ‘Hometown Cha Cha Cha.’
