MBC’s romance drama In Your Radiant Season has released a preview of its upcoming episode, revealing that the relationship between the two main characters will continue to develop while new tensions emerge in the storyline. The series follows the love story between Sunwoo Chan, played by Chae Jong Hyeop, a man who approaches life like an endless summer vacation, and Song Ha Ran, portrayed by Lee Sung Kyung, a woman who has emotionally closed herself off as if trapped in a long winter.
In previous episodes, Sunwoo Chan suddenly left for the United States without warning. His unexpected departure made Song Ha Ran acutely aware of his absence, prompting her to recognize her true feelings for him and regret not having treated him more warmly before. Eventually, the two reunited on the day of the year’s first snowfall, confirming their feelings for one another in an emotional embrace that marked a turning point in their relationship.
In the upcoming episode, members of the Nana Atelier family will gather to host a welcome-back party for Sunwoo Chan. At the same time, Song Ha Ran and Sunwoo Chan will go on a date at an art exhibition, spending time together much like an ordinary couple. As their relationship grows closer than before, the romantic tension between them becomes increasingly evident, with even small gestures such as brushing hands carrying emotional weight. Newly released stills show the pair gazing deeply into each other’s eyes, heightening anticipation for their evolving chemistry.
Alongside these romantic developments, the new episode also introduces a dramatic confrontation. Another set of stills reveals that Sunwoo Chan unexpectedly encounters his father, Sunwoo Seok, at his maternal grandmother’s ceramics exhibition. The sight of his father immediately brings back painful memories from the past, causing Sunwoo Chan to lose control of his emotions. In a moment of anger, he even grabs his father by the collar, while Song Ha Ran witnesses the tense confrontation. The scene suggests that unresolved family issues may become an important element in the story moving forward.
The next episode of In Your Radiant Season will air on March 14 at 9:40 p.m. KST, beginning ten minutes earlier than its usual broadcast time and featuring a slightly extended runtime. As the narrative continues to unfold, the combination of deepening romance and family conflict is expected to add further complexity to the drama’s storyline.
