Actress Seol In Ah is set to grace the small screen once more, reprising her image as the icon of first love with the new tvN Kdrama Twinkling Watermelon. The upcoming Monday-Tuesday series, Twinkling Watermelon, is directed by Son Jung-Hyun and Yoo Beom-Sang and written by Jin Soo-Wan. It is slated to premiere on September 25 at 8:50 PM KST.
Twinkling Watermelon is a fantasy youth drama that spins a tale of time travel. Seol In Ah will breathe life into the character of Se-Kyung, a young woman whom Lee Chan, played by Choi Hyun Wook, has a crush on. Se-Kyung is everyone’s fantasy. With her innocent charm, Se-Kyung also radiates an air of elegance as a cello prodigy. Se-Kyung displays an unrivaled beauty that is absolutely captivating, leaving everyone unsatisfied with just stealing a glance.
Although she receives a lot of attention, she neatly turns a blind eye to the courtship of male students, including Lee Chan. Se-Kyung remains aloof and only focuses on her busy schedule, which includes cello practice, class subjects, private lessons, and competitions.
Some people are frustrated with Se-Kyung’s indifference and refusal of such attention. At the same time, others continue to get determined to win her heart. A lot of admirers circle around her like moons, hoping to catch a glimpse of her indifferent gaze.
However, Se-Kyung’s life is not what others imagine it to be. Her life takes an unexpected turn as she finds herself at the center of a love triangle and becomes the talk of the town overnight. Previously, the video teaser for Twinkling Watermelon showed Eun-Gyeol, played by Ryeoun, making an emergency landing in 1995 after attempting to time
Eun-Gyeol discovers that his father, Lee Chan, had a different first love, and it was not his mother. It turned out that Lee Chan’s childhood sweetheart was Se-Kyung, hinting at a chaos that neither expected.

In a recent preview for the upcoming Kdrama series, we are brought back to 1995 when Eun-Gyeol has time slipped. The news that Lee Chan’s first love, Se-Kyung, has returned from studying abroad surprises everyone.
Se-Kyung appears with a strangely different aura from when she was staying in South Korea, making people wonder what exactly happened to her abroad.
Unexpectedly, Se-Kyung approaches Lee Chan first. This puts him in an awkward situation as he was completely ignored before. Lee Chan also gets stuck on an iron wall with a busy schedule, so he finds it difficult to digest the situation at first.
Furthermore, Eun-Gyeol watches the unexpected reunion of the two. Eun-Gyeol already knows that Lee Chan and Cheong-Ah, played by Shin Eun Soo, end up together in the end, and that is why he was born. But seeing Lee Chan with Se-Kyung gives him mixed emotions.
Eun-Gyeol still tries to be a bridge between Lee Chan and Cheong-Ah, interrogating Se-Kyung and continuously bugging her to answer why she returned from studying abroad.
On the other hand, Se-Kyung responds with a calm face. Se-Kyung makes Eun-Gyeol even more confused, questioning if there is any reason for her not to return.
