Dear X first premiered its four episodes on November 6, 2025, and previously premiered episodes one and two at Busan International Film Festival, September 18, 2025 – this award signifies something exceptional about Dear X!

The Dark Story Behind Dear X

Dear X is a continuation of Baek Ah Jin’s tale as an actress trained to mask her suffering through flawless performance. Growing up in an abusive household and watching people read scripts was traumatizing for young Ah Jin, while her father eventually murdered his drunk mother on their steps and moved in with his lover’s mom – Jun-seo’s mom! The film ends with Ah Jin moving in with Jun-seo as his partner!

Ah-jin has made her way to the pinnacle of entertainment with her talent and beauty, yet all success comes at a cost. Yun Jun-seo has long been her close confidant; in fact, episode four showed this relationship coming to an abrupt halt!

Ah-jin currently attends Singwang High, appearing calm yet deceitful to those around her. In response to teacher Mrs. Kwak leaking images from their school’s celebration without permission or prior notification, Ah-jin began the cold-blooded manipulation process early.

Sim Sung-hee’s spread of lies about Ah-jin being an orphan led to swift revenge from Ah-jin, who turned on Sung-hee by divulging news of family members bribing a judge so Sung-hee could compete in debate competitions; due to this scandal, all school competitions were cancelled altogether! How brutal!

What’s Coming in Dear X Episode 5-6 Preview?

By episode 4, Ah-jin and Jun-seo had separated, with Ah-jin citing his kindness as being detrimental. She decided to enter entertainment as someone with control rather than following. While their breakup broke fans’ hearts, it also solidified Ah-jin’s character even further.

Episodes 5-6 will likely focus on Ah-jin’s early career in entertainment. She must navigate an increasingly competitive industry while using various tactics of manipulation with directors and producers; upon the conclusion of episode 4, Ah-jin was signed to Longstar Entertainment under Mi-ri’s management.

Do you think Jun-seo will accept their breakup, or will he support her? Kim Young-dae is Yoon Jun-seo, and their relationship has left viewers of their drama in suspense – we love both but can understand why Ah Jin may have pulled away!

What do you think about Kim Jae-oh’s character, Kim Do-hoon, played by Kim Jae-oh? Kim Do-hoon suffers from past abuse but finds comfort and motivation from Ah-jin as his reason to continue living. Unfortunately, their devotion seems risky; can Kim Jae-oh go to any lengths necessary to protect someone equally harmed?

While this is unfolding, rival actress and former idol Imre-na is harboring feelings for Jun-seo, which creates additional friction. Lee Yul-eum plays Im Re-na and makes an unlikely love triangle involving Ah-jin, who can only see Jun Seo being desired by one individual at any one time. Does Ah Jin care that another individual wants Jun Seo as much?

Cast Creating This Psychological Masterpiece

Kim Yoo-jung stars in “My Demon,” which many critics consider to be her darkest role yet. After playing positive characters like Kim Yoo-jung previously on “My Demon” and other dramas, her roles are completely transformed!

Kim Young-dae plays Yoon Jun-seo as Ah-jin’s childhood love interest and romantic partner; his expressive eyes perfectly depict his inner turmoil, and fans are already rooting for him even though they know Ah-jin has an unfortunate habit of using everyone!

Park So-hyun and Lee Eung-bok will direct this show. Director Lee was previously known for producing “Sweet Home” and “Descendants of the Sun”. Choi Ja-won won first prize at the KBS One-Act Drama Screenwriting Contest 2018, boasting an impressive track record.
