A Wish Come True: Kim Woo-bin and Suzy Reunite in 'Genie, Make a Wish,' Premiering October 3
Starring Kim Woo-bin and Suzy, this fresh K-fantasy romcom promises a stress-free watch, blending magic, destiny, and a touch of mischief. Just in time for Korea's Chuseok holiday, Genie, Make a Wish premieres globally on October 3.
In the series, the mysterious spirit Genie (Kim Woo-bin) awakens from a thousand-year slumber to grant three life-changing wishes to Ka-young (Suzy), an emotionless young woman who suddenly finds herself the new owner of a magical lamp. As Genie tries to adjust to the modern world with his devilish ways, he and the emotionally guarded Ka-young find themselves drawn into an unexpected and electrifying romance.
Fans are buzzing about the reunion of Kim Woo-bin and Suzy, two beloved icons of K-romcom royalty. Kim Woo-bin brings his signature charm to the role of the mischievous, "satanic" Genie, while Suzy shines as the peculiar yet beautiful Ka-young. The series also features a standout supporting cast - Ahn Eun-jin (Hospital playlist, Goodbye Earth), Noh Sang-hyun (Love in the Big City, Pachinko), Ko Kyu-pil (The Roundup: No Way Out), and Lee Zoo-young (The 8 Show, Shades of the Heart) - who add extra sparkle to this whimsical world.
The newly released Date Announcement poster highlights the duo's undeniable chemistry. Against a shimmering desert backdrop, Ka-young stands steady with a lamp in hand as Genie appears in a swirl of golden sand, making a mysterious promise to find her no matter what. The revelation that Genie is, in fact, Iblis - better known as Satan - adds a playful twist to the classic wish-granting tale, while Ka-young's calm reaction hints at a romance full of surprises.
With its blend of fantasy, humor, and heartfelt moments, Genie, Make a Wish is set to charm viewers worldwide when it streams exclusively on Netflix this October 3.
