Coupang Play’s upcoming series Cinderella at 2am has revealed its first poster and trailer, sparking excitement among fans.
Cinderella at 2am is an office rom-com that follows the tumultuous relationship between Yoon Seo, a pragmatic woman trying to break up with her perfect younger chaebol boyfriend, Joo Won. The newly released poster captures the contrasting emotions of Yoon Seo (Shin Hyun Bin) and Joo Won (Moon Sang Min) as they sit on a carriage past midnight, with the tagline, “Breaking up with the prince in the Cinderella fairy tale when the magic fades.”
The teaser offers a glimpse into the series’ unique take on romance, breaking away from typical clichés. Yoon Seo discovers that her boyfriend of 18 months, Joo Won, is the youngest son of the major shareholder of her company. Despite the chance to live a fairy-tale life, she decisively rejects the idea, declaring, “Prince Charming? I’ll pass.”
Yoon Seo’s bold decision to choose reality over fantasy is refreshing, while Joo Won’s unexpected reaction adds a spark of excitement. In the teaser, after Yoon Seo announces the breakup, Joo Won responds with unwavering determination, saying, “I won’t let you go. I’ll show you how much I like you from now on.” His declaration, “It’s your choice to break up, but it’s my choice to hold onto you,” promises a heart-throbbing romance that will captivate viewers.
With Yoon Seo firmly set on breaking up and Joo Won equally determined to win her back, Cinderella at 2am sets the stage for an unyielding battle of love and separation. The series premieres on August 24th and will air every Saturday and Sunday at 9 PM KST.
