TWICE’s Dahyun shared behind-the-scenes details about her on-screen partnership with actor Lee Si-woo at the press conference for JTBC’s upcoming Friday drama ‘Love Me’.
The production presentation was held on December 18 at The Link Seoul Tribute Portfolio Hotel in Guro-gu, Seoul. Director Jo Young-min attended alongside cast members Seo Hyun-jin, Yoo Jae-myung, Lee Si-woo, Yoon Se-ah, Jang Ryul, and Dahyun, offering insights into the drama and their roles.
In Love Me, Lee Si-woo plays Jun-seo, a graduate student and the younger brother of Jun-kyung (played by Seo Hyun-jin). Describing his character, Lee said Jun-seo is “a young man full of romance rather than maturity,” adding that the role reflects a youth slowly growing into adulthood.
Speaking about his chemistry with Dahyun, Lee Si-woo emphasized the importance of their long-standing friendship within the story. “Because the characters have known each other for a long time, that familiarity needed to feel natural from the beginning,” he explained. “She made everything feel comfortable on set and helped bring out genuine ‘best-friend’ moments.”
Dahyun introduced her character Ji Hye-on as a publishing editor who dreams of becoming a novelist. “Hye-on and Jun-seo have been close friends since childhood,” she said, highlighting the foundation of their relationship.
She also shared how they built their dynamic on set. “Since we’re portrayed as the same age, having a relaxed and natural vibe was really important,” Dahyun explained. “We decided early on to speak casually to each other. That made it easier to exchange ideas and work through each scene together. It felt like we were creating every moment step by step, and I was able to film with a very comfortable mindset.”
Love Me tells the story of a seemingly ordinary family, each member learning to love in their own way while growing through personal and emotional change. Blending warmth, realism, and romance, the drama explores relationships that feel familiar yet deeply heartfelt.
JTBC’s ‘Love Me’ is set to premiere on December 19 at 8:50 p.m. KST, marking Dahyun’s latest step into acting and raising anticipation for her chemistry with Lee Si-woo.
