In the latest teaser for The Witch, Dong-jin meets Mi-jeong ten years after he last saw her. He assumes that it was fate that he met Mi-jeong again. The new detail shows that Mi-jeong already knew that Dong-jin was watching her back when they were in high school.
In the teaser, we see that Mi-jeong's father and several males around Mi-jeong have faced mysterious death. This leads to Mi-jeong being labeled as a 'witch.' Only Dong-jin believes that Mi-jeong is innocent and he vows to investigate the deaths and clear Mi-jeong's name. Following release, many netizens took to the internet to shared their thoughts on the teaser.
"the only person who was looking at Mijeong from the start, saw her pain, felt for her and stood up for her… his eyes are full of pain" a user replied

The Witch: All you need to know
The Witch follows Park Mi-jeong (played by Roh Jeong-eui) a woman with a successful career as a translator. Her mother died while giving birth to her and later her father and several men around her passed away mysteriously. These incidents led to her being named as 'The Witch' by the society.
She crosses paths with Lee Dong-jin (played by Park Jin-young), who used to silently notice her during their high school days, and vows to uncover the truth on her behalf.
This romance mystery drama is based on a webtoon of the same name by author Kang Full. It is slated to premiere on February 15, 2025. The drama will reportedly consist of 10 episodes in all, with two episodes airing each week on Saturday and Sunday. The drama is slated to air on Channel A in South Korea and will be available globally through streaming platforms Viki and Viu.
