Netflix's 'Take Charge of My Heart' recharges classic rom-com formula

Netflix is preparing to air a charming Korean romantic comedy titled "Take Charge of My Heart" this fall. The series stars Kim Young-kwang and Chae Soo-bin as Baek Ho-rang and Na Bo-bae, respectively. Ho-rang, a third-generation chaebol heir, faces a critical situation as his artificial heart battery is running dangerously low. Meanwhile, Bo-bae, a TV writer, grapples with her own unique ability - possessing high-voltage superpowers that have left her love life utterly unfulfilled.

In an attempt to secure a stable life, Ho-rang and Bo-bae enter into a pragmatic contract. As their relationship develops amidst the backdrop of their distinct circumstances, their initially transactional dynamic quickly transforms into a series of heartwarming and thrilling moments. Director Park Soo-won expressed his excitement about the script, particularly the female lead's captivating electrical powers.

Unlike conventional rom-coms, where the heart-fluttering moments arise spontaneously, "Take Charge of My Heart" promises a more deliberate and engaging journey of love and chemistry between its lead characters.
