SBS Releases New BTS Stills of Song Hye Kyo and Jang Ki Yong From Now, We are Breaking Up and Calls Them Officially the Chrysanthemum “GookHa” Couple

Man, I haven’t onscreen couple shipped in like a decade but I still remember how fun it can be when one is super into the onscreen story, romance, and chemistry. Just remember to let go when the drama is over, lol. With that said, it feels nostalgic to see SBS promoting the leads of Fri-Sat romance drama Now, We are Breaking Up by sharing new BTS stills of leads Song Hye Kyo and Jang Ki Yong, and giving them an official couple name. That be the GookHa couple for their names combined which happens to be the Korean word for Chrysanthemum, and the flower language for this is “I love you”. Ok, that’s kinda cute. I’m only two episodes into Breaking Up and it’s not as bad as the detractors make it out to be, there is such an old school vibe like this drama story was from 15 years ago in Hallyu drama land but filmed in a modern way for 2021. I doesn’t turn me off but just feels anachronistic especially when stories are barreling ahead to new frontiers. With that said, there should always be a comfort dish of a classic Hallyu style romance, and whether Breaking Up delivers in the subsequent episodes to create a cohesive romance remains to be seen. So far it’s wait and see for me.
