The anticipation for Channel A’s upcoming weekend drama The Witch continues to build as the production team releases its third teaser video, offering a deeper glimpse into the poignant and mysterious love story at the heart of the series. Starring Park Jin-young and Noh Jung-eui, The Witch is a captivating blend of mystery, romance, and fantasy, adapted from the popular webtoon by Kang Full, the mastermind behind hits like Moving and The Lighting Store.
A Story of Fate and Healing
The Witch tells the story of Dong-jin (Park Jin-young), a man determined to break the curse of misfortune surrounding women labeled as “witches,” and Mi-jung (Noh Jung-eui), a woman who has isolated herself from the world after being branded as the source of tragedy. Their paths cross in a fateful encounter, leading to a journey of love, redemption, and self-discovery as they save each other from their respective struggles.
The third teaser, released on January 26th, delves into the emotional core of the story, showcasing the sorrowful confessions and fateful reunion of Dong-jin and Mi-jung. The video begins with Mi-jung’s heartbreaking past, as she recalls the strange and tragic events that have plagued her life since childhood. Labeled a “witch” by her peers, she endures the pain of isolation and loss, culminating in her decision to leave school and retreat from the world.
Dong-jin, who has silently watched Mi-jung from afar, is determined to prove that she is not a witch. However, his efforts come too late as Mi-jung disappears into the night, leaving behind a note that reads, “Urgent Sale.” Years later, their paths cross again in a serendipitous meeting on the subway, reigniting a connection that feels destined.
