The first look of Cha Eun-woo and Park Gyu-young's upcoming drama, A Good Day to Be a Dog, has been released. The drama is based on the eponymous webtoon. It can be best described as a fantasy rom-com between a cursed woman who turns into a dog for a couple of hours and a man who is petrified of dogs but is the only one who can break her curse.
In the first look, the two actors can be seen posing against a rather creative background with animated drawings of a little puppy, an umbrella, diaries, and little paw prints.
Cha Eun-woo can be seen dressed in a blue sweater and staring intently into the camera, while Park Gyu-young can be seen wearing a sunshine-yellow sweater and smiling sweetly at the camera.
"It's coming," @kdramatreats on X (formerly Twitter) wrote in response to the first look reveal of A Good Day to be a Dog.
Cha Eun-woo and Park Gyu-young's fans express excitement over the first look for A Good Day to be a Dog
The fantasy rom-com drama A Good Day to be a Dog stars Cha Eun-woo and Park Gyu-young in lead roles. Park Gyu-young will portray the role of Han Hae-na, a happy-go-lucky school teacher who is riddled with a terrifying curse.
She transforms into a dog for six hours at midnight, which is why she keeps men at bay. However, in a drunken state, she kisses her co-worker Jin Seo-won, played by Cha Eun-woo, despite not being in a relationship.
Han Hae-na realizes that Jin Seo-won is the ultimate cure for her curse and hopes to kiss him when she has transformed into a dog. However, Jin Seo-won is petrified of dogs due to a childhood incident that has scarred him for life. Whether or not Jin Seo-won and Han Hae-na can overcome their fears and find love in each other forms the crux of this story.
