U+tv’s upcoming drama “Love Phobia” has released new stills featuring Kim Hyun Jin in character, offering a glimpse into his transformation as a celebrated romance novelist.
“Love Phobia” tells the story of Han Sun Ho, a romance novelist who is deeply attuned to his emotions, and Yoon Bi Ah, the emotionally distant CEO of the AI-based dating app “It’s You.” When their contrasting worlds collide, the two gradually begin to understand one another, embarking on a journey that challenges their views on love and connection.

Kim Hyun Jin portrays Han Sun Ho, a novelist admired for both his literary talent and striking appearance. While his looks have earned him idol-like popularity, they also leave him grappling with an identity crisis in an industry that often overlooks his writing in favor of his image. During a period of uncertainty and wandering, an unexpected incident draws him into the life of Yoon Bi Ah, a person whose outlook on relationships seems incompatible with his own.
In the newly released stills, Kim Hyun Jin embodies the image of a “novel world idol,” with clear features and a calm, refined presence. His focused expression during a book-signing scene brings the character of Han Sun Ho vividly to life, emphasizing his dedication as a writer.
Another still shows Han Sun Ho with a serious expression, hinting at internal conflict and narrative tension. As he unexpectedly joins the company “It’s You,” viewers are left anticipating how his clashing dynamic with Yoon Bi Ah will unfold and what changes await him.
“Love Phobia” is scheduled to premiere on February 19 at 11 p.m. KST.
