Jang Ki Yong and Ahn Eun Jin star in Dynamite Kiss.
A romantic comedy about love and career colliding.
Premieres on SBS and Netflix November 12, 2025.

SBS’s upcoming drama “Dynamite Kiss” is ready to capture viewers’ hearts with a story about unexpected romance in the middle of a competitive workplace. It follows a single woman who disguises herself as a married mother to land her dream job. With its mix of humor, social commentary, and strong chemistry among top actors, the drama has sparked high anticipation even before airing. Excitement grew even more after the script reading video was released.

Strong Chemistry and Captivating Performances

The first script reading revealed the solid synergy between director Kim Jae Hyun, writers Ha Yoon Ah and Tae Kyung Min, and the main cast. Jang Ki Yong, Ahn Eun Jin, Kim Moo Joon, and Woo Da Vi read their lines with passion, creating a warm yet lively atmosphere.

Jang Ki Yong plays Gong Ji Hyuk, the head of a baby product team who doesn’t believe in love. The 1992-born actor perfectly switches between Ji Hyuk’s cold and charismatic sides. His career soared through Confession Couple (2017), Come and Hug Me (2018), and My Roommate Is a Gumiho (2021). Meanwhile, Ahn Eun Jin portrays Go Da Rim, a hardworking woman who disguises herself as married for a job opportunity. She rose to fame with Hospital Playlist, The Good Bad Mother, and My Dearest, earning a Best Actress nomination at the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards.

Kim Moo Joon takes on the role of Kim Sun Woo, Da Rim’s longtime friend and single father who pretends to be her husband to cover her lie. His popularity grew after winning Best New Actor at the 2023 MBC Drama Awards. Woo Da Vi plays Yoo Ha Yeong, a wealthy heiress portrayed with a refreshing twist instead of the usual cliché. Veteran actors like Nam Ki Ae, Cha Mi Kyung, Choi Kwang Il, and Seo Jeong Yeon add even more depth to the story.

Some script reading moments stole the spotlight, including Ji Hyuk’s playful request to repeat a kissing scene:

“Jihyuk: Should we do it one more time?

Darim: Yes??

Jihyuk: Just now that (kiss), let’s do it one more time.

Jihyuk… be patient 🐥🐥🐥”

Fans quickly flooded social media with comments:

“Such a heartwarming making of the drama! Jang Ki Yong ❤️ Ahn Eun Jin’s voices match so perfectly too. I’m already thrilled while waiting. Let’s go for a huge success!!! ❤️”

“Finally we get to see Ahn Eun Jin acting again! I’ve been waiting so long ㅠ. Seeing Jang Ki Yong and Ahn Eun Jin as the leads already makes me so excited 🎉”

“It’s already this fun just from the script reading, how fun will it be when it actually airs?!! 😂❤️”
