Jang Ki-yong and Ahn Eun-jin Reunite at an Interview! 'Longing for You' Kicks Off Office Romance in Episode 3!

'Longing for You' is already generating significant buzz both domestically and internationally, signaling a hit drama for the second half of 2025.

The SBS drama, penned by Ha Yoon-ah and directed by Kim Jae-hyun and Kim Hyun-woo, has captivated viewers with the thrilling and passionate romance between stars Jang Ki-yong (as Gong Ji-hyuk) and Ahn Eun-jin (as Go Da-rim), sending viewers' dopamine levels soaring.

Breaking the typical romance drama trope of a kiss scene only in the fourth episode's ending, 'Longing for You' delivered a 'natural disaster-level' kiss in the very first episode's finale, marking a powerful start. The rapid progression of love, separation, and reunion between the lead couple within just two episodes has significantly heightened anticipation for the story ahead.

New stills released on November 18th, ahead of the third episode, showcase the dramatic reunion of Gong Ji-hyuk and Go Da-rim at an interview, grabbing attention. The unexpected encounter, with Gong Ji-hyuk as the interviewer and Go Da-rim as the interviewee, adds tension to the plot. For Go Da-rim, who has interview trauma, Gong Ji-hyuk's presence is enough to make her heart sink, yet her forced bright smile sparks curiosity.

The production team stated, "The office romance between Gong Ji-hyuk and Go Da-rim officially begins from the third episode airing tomorrow (19th). Their reunion scene will deliver delightful laughter and excitement amidst tangled misunderstandings. Actors Jang Ki-yong and Ahn Eun-jin have infused rhythm into the drama and characters with their vibrant performances." They requested keen interest and anticipation for their reunion, which is 'not traditionally romantic, but somehow more heart-pounding.'

Netizens are expressing high anticipation for 'Longing for You', which has garnered significant attention even before its official premiere. Comments include, 'A kiss in the first episode! So thrilling!', 'The combination of Jang Ki-yong and Ahn Eun-jin is insane!', and 'I'm so curious about how the story will unfold!'
