Netflix Announces New K-Drama “Take Charge of My Heart” Starring Kim Young Kwang and Chae Soo Bin

Netflix has officially confirmed production for Take Charge of My Heart, a refreshing romantic comedy with an electrifying twist.

This highly anticipated K-drama tells the story of a man whose artificial heart is running out of battery and a woman with the extraordinary power to recharge it. With a mix of romance, humor, and high-stakes drama, the series is set to charm K-drama fans worldwide.

Leading the cast is Kim Young-kwang (Trigger, On Your Wedding Day) as Baek Ho-rang, a third-generation chaebol heir who manages one of South Korea’s top luxury resorts. Brilliant in business, masterful at strategy, and poised to take over his family’s conglomerate, Baek Ho-rang appears to have it all. But behind his flawless public image lies a closely guarded secret — he survives with an artificial heart. As corporate power struggles intensify, his heart’s battery begins to fail, putting both his health and his ambitions in jeopardy.

When he meets Na Bo-bae, a woman capable of recharging his heart, Baek Ho-rang seizes the opportunity to keep his secret safe. In a moment of desperation mixed with curiosity, he offers her a contract she can’t refuse — one that will intertwine their lives in unexpected and heart-fluttering ways.

Chae Soo-bin (When the Phone Rings, The Fabulous) takes on the role of Na Bo-bae, a passionate screenwriter fighting against time to finish her romance screenplay before her own contract expires. Her life has been anything but ordinary — after being struck by lightning as a child, Na Bo-bae has lived with electrical currents running through her body, making it impossible to physically connect with anyone she has feelings for.

Her world shifts the moment she meets Baek Ho-rang, the only person who can touch her without being shocked. Not only does he offer her the chance to help him survive, but he also sparks a new chapter in her personal and romantic life — one that could inspire the very love story she’s been struggling to write.

For both Kim Young-kwang and Chae Soo-bin, Take Charge of My Heart marks an exciting return to the romantic comedy genre that first made them fan favorites. Known for their charisma, on-screen charm, and strong acting chemistry with co-stars, their pairing has already generated buzz among K-drama enthusiasts. Viewers can expect witty banter, emotional depth, and a fresh take on the “contract relationship” trope — this time with a sci-fi romance twist.

With its unique storyline combining corporate drama, quirky romance, and a touch of the supernatural, Take Charge of My Heart stands out in the ever-growing lineup of Netflix K-dramas. The blend of humor, heartfelt moments, and high-concept romance is poised to appeal to a wide audience — from fans of classic rom-coms to those seeking something a little different.

Netflix continues to be a powerhouse in delivering globally acclaimed Korean content, and this new original series is expected to follow in the footsteps of other hits, reaching audiences far beyond South Korea.
