Spooky In Love
Overview
This is not a partnership either of them would have chosen. A hotel heiress who talks to spirits, and a prosecutor terrified of nearly everything she sees. Yet here they are, stuck together, because her gift keeps landing her in his toughest cases. She catches what he physically cannot, whereas he brings the legal grounding & stubbornness her leads need.
Something else starts building underneath the arguing, slowly, neither one planning for it, both noticing it anyway.
Spooky In Love is not in a hurry. The mystery unfolds at its own pace, and so does whatever is happening between them, simmering quietly instead of rushing toward either conclusion.

Fun Facts
- If the premise sounds familiar, that's because the series is an official, modernized television remake of the beloved 2011 South Korean romantic-comedy horror film Spellbound, which originally starred Son Ye-jin and Lee Min-ki. The 2026 drama expands the core concept from a stage magician's act into a sprawling mystery involving cold cases, a luxury hotel, and deeply rooted spectral grudges.
- Promotional stills released by tvN have generated huge discussion among fans regarding a specific detail about Park Eun-bin’s character. Cheon Yeo-ri is shown always wearing gloves in public. However, a major plot point highlights her revealing her bare hands exclusively in front of Yang Se-jong's character, teasing that brief physical contact between the two temporarily forces him to see the same ghosts she does, triggering his secret phantasmophobia.
