Actor Kim Seon-ho is set to prove his romantic comedy prowess once again — this time as a six-language genius interpreter.
According to his agency Fantagio, Kim stars in the Netflix original series Can This Love Be Translated?, which premieres globally on January 16 at 5 p.m. (KST).

An Unpredictable Romance with Go Youn-jung
Can This Love Be Translated? is a romantic comedy centered on Joo Ho-jin (played by Kim Seon-ho), a highly skilled multilingual interpreter who becomes the official translator for Cha Mu-hee (played by Go Youn-jung), a world-famous global star. What begins as a professional partnership soon turns into an unexpected and unpredictable romance.
Despite being fluent in six languages, Joo Ho-jin struggles when it comes to expressing his own emotions — especially love — creating a charming contrast that drives the heart of the story.

Kim Seon-ho’s Intensive Preparation
For the role, Kim Seon-ho reportedly underwent four months of intensive language training, focusing on pronunciation and realistic delivery in multiple languages including English, Japanese, and Italian. He also revealed during the production presentation that he repeatedly reviewed the script to fully convey emotional nuance through dialogue.

A Signature Rom-Com Comeback
Fantagio shared that Kim Seon-ho’s delicate gaze, emotional acting, and natural chemistry with Go Youn-jung are expected to captivate viewers worldwide. The series marks his highly anticipated return to the romantic comedy genre, where he has previously earned the title of a “rom-com craftsman.”
With its global setting, multilingual concept, and heart-fluttering storytelling, Can This Love Be Translated? is already drawing strong attention ahead of its release.
The Netflix series is now available to audiences worldwide.
