Based on a famous webtoon, Head Over Heels tells the love story of Bae Gyeon U (Choo Young Woo) - a young man haunted by bad luck, born with the unfortunate fate of a destined death and Park Seong A ( cho Yi Hyun) - a young magician trying to save him from his fate.
Before airing, "Ngo Lang Chuc Nu" was a project that Korean media and audiences had high expectations for, as Cho Yi Hyun and Choo Young Woo were destined to be in the movie "School 2021".
On the other hand, 2025 is the year that marks a step forward in Choo Young Woo's career when the works he participated in, "The Legend of Lady Ok", " trauma Care Center" and "Khong Duong" all received attention from the audience.
Returning to the screen, the young star once again proved his appeal when "Ngu Lang Chuc Nu" achieved a positive viewership rating.
According to Nielsen Korea, the first episode achieved a rating of 4.3% (the highest time reached 5.2%), becoming the first episode with the highest rating for a TV series broadcast on Monday and Tuesday of tvN in 2025.
In addition, in the 20-49 viewership age group, the film reached 2% - marking a significant recovery after a series of unimpressive films of tvN such as "Ask the Stars", " Potato Research Institute", "Divorce Insurance" ... with ratings only reaching 1-3%.
Commenting on the film "Nhu Lang Chuc Nu", Ten Asia (Korea) said that right from the first episode, the film brought many climaxes, combined with supernatural elements and humorous plot. Notable among them is the clash between the two main characters Gyeon U and Seong A.
Choo Young Woo and Cho Yi Hyun's performances in the film show their chemistry in their second collaboration. In addition, his youthful appearance and impressive height difference between the male and female leads are also a plus.
According to Korean newspapers, with a positive start, the film "Nguu Lang Chuc Nu" is likely to not only mark a turning point for tvN but also promise to open up many opportunities for the career of Choo Young Woo - who is currently a trending actor on the Korean screen.
