Heartbeat Episode 1 Reactions: A new vampire show has just dropped, and episode 1 of Heartbeat promises to be a funny and emotional ride right from the start. We love watching a softie vampire with the flair for the overdramatic to want to become a human in order to feel love – a love so deep that it makes his heart pump and the rush of emotions wash over him.
Fans, thus, were amused with the direction the story took and In-hae’s chaotic entry into Woo-hyeol’s life. The down-on-her-dumps character proved to be a real menace after she ruined his chances of realising his dreams by one day and then, on top of that, bit him on the neck at the first signs of danger!
Of course, you can’t really blame the poor girl – she has no idea about her ancestors and their secret plans with Woo-hyeol. Fans were quick to sympathise with both characters, and the excitement, thus, is clearly palpable to see what will go down between these two soft but chaotic people. Of course, a romance is on the horizon, and hopefully, Woo-hyeol gets to be a human. But what lies down that path before all of these actually become real? I guess we will just have to wait and watch.
Heartbeat (가슴이 뛴다) is a fantasy rom-com Korean drama series written by Kim Ha-na and Jung Seung-joo, directed by Lee Hyun-seok and Lee Min-soo, and stars Ok Taec-yeon and Won Ji-an in lead roles, along with Park Kang-hyun and Yoon So-hee.

The drama follows half-human, half-vampire Seon Woo-hyeol, who desperately wants to become a human but misses his chance to switch due to unfortunate circumstances. Meanwhile, Joo In-hae, having lived a difficult life since she was young, is a cold-hearted high-school nurse who ends up in possession of Woo-hyeol’s mansion under rather odd circumstances. Thanks to certain events, they start to share a house together which changes both of their lives for the better and makes them a little more human than they started out with.
Ok Taec-yeon was last seen in 2022’s Blind, wherein he played the role of Ryu Sung-joon while Won Ji-an’s last role was as Ha Joon-kyung in 2022’s If You Wish Upon Me. Heartbeat takes over KBS2’s Monday-Tuesday 9:50 PM timeslot previously occupied by My Perfect Stranger, starring Kim Dong-wook and Jin Ki-joo.
