Get ready to fall hopelessly stuck on a love story as sweet and irresistible as Korean taffy. Netflix has unveiled the main poster and trailer for its upcoming romantic comedy series Our Sticky Love, premiering August 7, offering fans their first tantalizing glimpse into an offbeat romance that promises to be as heartwarming as it is quirky. The series follows Go Eun-sae (Ha Young), a prosecutor who wakes up in a rural hospital with no memory of her past, and Jang Tae-ha (Jung Hae-in), a boxing coach who calmly claims to be her boyfriend. As the two end up living together under a strange arrangement in a small town lined with traditional taffy shops, what begins as a confusing and uncomfortable situation slowly transforms into a quirky, sweet romance that will leave viewers unable to pull themselves away.
Director Kim Jang-han, who brings this unique love story to life, describes the series as a heart-warming, feel-good romantic comedy that explores the building of love that binds two people as tightly as sticky, sweet Korean taffy. “The series’ irresistible charm will leave you unable to pull yourself away, just like getting stuck to Korean taffy before you even realize it,” he adds, further heightening anticipation for the series’ undeniable charm. With Jung Hae-in and Ha Young promising to bring this offbeat love story to life with easy chemistry and humor, the series is poised to capture the hearts of romcom enthusiasts everywhere.
The main trailer offers a glimpse of their rocky beginning in the Taffy Village of Gujin-gun, where Eun-sae wakes up in a strange hospital with all of her memories lost and her past completely erased. Before she can make sense of anything, Tae-ha appears, unshaken and unbothered, calmly claiming to be her boyfriend. His shabby appearance could not be further from Go Eun-sae’s usual taste, and the quiet small town with its peculiar residents feels alien and deeply uncomfortable to her. Unable to trust a word from her supposed boyfriend, she remains confused and suspicious of his every move. Yet Tae-ha’s warmth and steady affection slowly begin to unsettle her defenses—his obvious admiration leaves her flustered, and despite herself, she starts to smile more around him, her hardened exterior beginning to soften in ways she can’t quite explain.
Just as their relationship seems to be warming and the walls between them begin to crumble, Tae-ha issues a serious warning that they can’t let anyone find out about them, hinting at a deeper secret lurking beneath their fragile connection. Questions build around what he’s hiding, why Eun-sae is said to be safest by his side, and what really happened to bind them together so tightly. As the series unfolds, viewers will be drawn into a mystery that is as sticky and complex as the taffy that defines their peculiar village. With its blend of humor, heart, and hidden secrets, Our Sticky Love promises to be the perfect summer binge, offering a romance that will leave audiences hopelessly entangled and eagerly awaiting each new episode. Stream Our Sticky Love on August 7, only on Netflix.
