Electrifying Korean Rom-Com Series ‘Take Charge of My Heart’ to Spark Love on October 9

Netflix has unveiled the teaser trailer and poster for the electrifying new Korean romantic comedy series Take Charge of My Heart, premiering on October 9. Based on a web novel, the series follows a man whose artificial heart is running out of battery and a woman with the unique power to recharge him. Kim Young-kwang (Trigger, Somebody) returns to romance as the cool and collected Baek Ho-rang, and Chae Soo-bin (The Fabulous, Sweet & Sour) plays the lovely Na Bo-bae.

The newly revealed teaser trailer begins with Na Bo-bae’s secret confession. After being struck by lightning as a child, she developed mysterious electrical powers. With sparks flying from her hands, Bo-bae resorts to wearing gloves and being alone, rather than risk electrocuting the people around her. Enter Baek Ho-rang, a third-generation chaebol heir and executive director at one of the nation’s top resorts, whose only weakness is his artificial heart.

When the two meet, they unintentionally share a kiss, and Bo-bae realizes her electricity doesn’t seem to affect Ho-rang. For the first time ever, she thinks she has encountered her fated “human rubber glove” and tries to talk to him, but Ho-rang runs away. The two meet again at the hospital, where Ho-rang receives the final surgery to change his artificial heart’s battery to a high-power one. However, when the surgery is disrupted by a blackout due to a storm, Ho-rang’s new battery runs low, recharging only when Bo-bae is near him.

Ho-rang needs her to keep his heart going for three months until he can receive another surgery, especially so he can take over TS Group. Meanwhile, Bo-bae has three months until her writer contract is up, facing the predicament of having to write a good romance by then, even though she has never been able to date anyone due to her electric touch. And so Ho-rang offers Bo-bae a deal she can’t refuse: charge him through touch, in exchange for him fulfilling her “romance bucket list”.

True to their contract, the teaser poster shows Ho-rang and Bo-bae holding hands, as sparks fly and Ho-rang’s heart charges, promising a truly electrifying romantic comedy series. 

Take Charge of My Heart will deliver a spark-filled K-romcom on October 9, only on Netflix.
