The upcoming series promises a fairy tale with laughs, love and spirit, making it a must-watch for all the K-drama fans. Have patience, and for now have a read at the details you should know before the series premieres!
Genie, Make a Wish: Magical Premise with a Fresh Spin
Genie, Make a Wish has a quirky plot where Kim Woo Bin plays Jinn: a somewhat emotionally unstable genie awakened after a millennium, while Suzy stars as Ga Young, an emotionally restrained woman who accidentally stumbles upon his lamp.
Their chemistry is explored through three life-changing wishes, ensuing comedic madness and unexpected romance. Written by Kim Eun-sook known for The Glory and Goblin, this blend of fantasy and heartfelt moments across 12 episodes will be a contrast to the heavy Uncontrollably Fond. Filmed in Dubai, this drama achieves added brownie points due to its exotic location.
Star-Studded Cast and Creative Powerhouse
Ahn Eun-jin embodies the mysterious Mi-joo, while Noh Sang-hyun embodies the anxious Soo-hyun. While Go Kyu-pil plays Sayyid the black jaguar disguised in human form. The show is directed by Lee Byeong-heon and produced by Hwa&Dam Pictures, the team behind The Glory.
We have an even bigger lineup of star cameos with Song Hye Kyo and Kim Ji Hoon, solidifying the much-anticipated nature of the drama for any K-drama enthusiasts. The reported chemistry of Kim Woo Bin and Suzy now takes on a whole new dimension in this adorably quirky yet whimsical narrative.
Why Fans Are Counting the Days till October
