By Chance, Newlywed with a Beast
어쩌다, 짐승과 신혼Synopsis
“If you’re going to do it, do it properly.”
Bae Jinju, a prodigy vocalist of Korean traditional music (sorikkun).
On the day of the audition for new members of the Gyeongseong Changgeuk Troupe, it overlaps with her arranged blind date with a fiancé promised by their fathers.
But the man she is supposed to meet for the blind date turns out to be one of the audition judges.
Pushed by the pressure of their elders, the blind date extends into three separate meetings. During these repeated encounters, Jinju proposes a contractual “show-window marriage” in exchange for the freedom she has always dreamed of.
Yoon Jae, a man with no interest in love and who needs this marriage to protect his own work and position, accepts Jinju’s bold conditions. Their marriage proceeds quickly.
“If you’re going to do it, you should do it properly.”
What was thought to be nothing more than a fake newlywed relationship begins to stir something far more instinctive beneath the surface.
