Kim Young Kwang And Chae Soo Bin Team Up For Netflix’s Upcoming Romantic Comedy 'Take Charge of My Heart'

Netflix continues to expand its slate of Korean dramas with fresh romantic comedies — and its latest offering, Take Charge of My Heart, is already creating a buzz. Starring heartthrob Kim Young Kwang and fan-favorite Chae Soo Bin, this upcoming drama promises to blend humor, romance, and just the right touch of emotional depth.

Fans of both actors have long been hoping for a project that puts their talents — and charisma — on full display. Kim Young Kwang, known for his roles in Call It Love, Hello, Me!, and On Your Wedding Day, has a charming yet complex screen presence. Meanwhile, Chae Soo Bin has stolen hearts in series like I Am Not a Robot, Love in the Moonlight, and Where Stars Land. Their pairing promises crackling chemistry and an engaging narrative.

Set in the bustling world of digital startups, Take Charge of My Heart tells the story of Han Joon Woo (played by Kim Young Kwang), a charismatic CEO with a reputation for being a workaholic and control freak. Enter Yoon Ha Ri (Chae Soo Bin), a bold and lively app developer who joins his company with a mission of her own — to bring empathy and human touch back into a tech-driven culture.

What begins as a clash of personalities quickly turns into a series of misunderstandings, heart-fluttering moments, and unexpected emotional connections. As the two navigate their contrasting approaches to life and love, sparks fly — both romantic and comedic.

Unlike traditional rom-coms, Take Charge of My Heart focuses not just on the romance, but also on emotional healing, ambition, and finding balance between passion and love. The writing team includes screenwriter Baek Mi Kyung, known for hits like Strong Woman Do Bong Soon and The Lady in Dignity, ensuring a solid blend of humor, romance, and impactful storytelling.

The series also features a talented ensemble cast including:

• Kwak Dong Yeon as the jealous best friend with a secret crush
  
  

• Jung Hye Sung as Ha Ri’s quirky roommate and confidante
  
  

• Kim Jae Wook in a guest role as Joon Woo’s older brother, adding tension and wisdom
  
  

Filming is currently underway in various parts of Seoul and Jeju, with the production emphasizing natural lighting, warm palettes, and modern work-life aesthetics to deliver an immersive viewing experience.

Netflix has been hitting the mark with romantic K-dramas that balance storytelling with star power, and Take Charge of My Heart fits that mold perfectly. The combination of Kim Young Kwang’s brooding charm and Chae Soo Bin’s vibrant energy is likely to appeal to both younger and mature audiences alike.

In a recent press conference, Kim Young Kwang shared:

“I’ve always admired Soo Bin’s acting. Getting to work with her in a romantic comedy feels exciting — and surprisingly comfortable.”

Chae Soo Bin added:

“The script was witty, heartfelt, and refreshing. I fell in love with the character of Ha Ri instantly. It’s rare to find a role that feels this empowering and fun at the same time.”

Netflix has confirmed that Take Charge of My Heart is slated for a Spring 2026 release, with a total of 12 episodes dropping weekly. The show will be available with subtitles in over 10 languages, targeting a global audience hungry for quality Korean content.

Take Charge of My Heart isn’t just another romantic comedy — it’s a heartfelt exploration of modern love, ambition, and emotional growth. With a perfect cast, an engaging plot, and Netflix’s backing, this is one series you won’t want to miss.

Whether you're a fan of office romance, enemies-to-lovers tropes, or simply looking for something lighthearted with substance, this K-drama promises to take charge of your heart — literally and figuratively.
