[Edaily Starin Choi Hee-jae Reporter] Park Eun-bin and Ong Seong-wu in "Chilling Romance" drift apart due to conflicting interests.

In Episode 9 of tvN’s Saturday-Sunday drama “Chilling Romance,” airing on the 15th, Cheon Yeo-ri (played by Park Eun-bin) and Kang Min-hwan (played by Ong Seong-wu) encounter each other at a glamorous party, creating a strange tension.
Previously, on the day of Cheon Yeo-ri’s engagement ceremony, her childhood friend Kang Min-hwan confessed his long-held feelings and tried to dissuade her from marrying Ma Kang-wook (played by Yang Se-jong), but was met with a heartbreaking rejection. Cheon Yeo-ri, who had never viewed Kang Min-hwan as more than a friend, politely drew a line, and this incident created a new distance between them.
With all eyes on how the relationship between Cheon Yeo-ri and Kang Min-hwan—who have been childhood friends for so long—will unfold, newly released photos capture the awkward atmosphere between the two as they reunite at a business meeting following Cheon Yeo-ri and Ma Kang-wook’s engagement ceremony, sparking curiosity.
Attending a glamorous party as hotel executives, Cheon Yeo-ri and Kang Min-hwan exchange glances without approaching each other, even though they are in the same room. A chill hangs in the air between the two as they spend time together, aware of each other’s presence but engaging in little interaction, making their changed relationship all the more palpable.
In particular, Cheon Yeo-ri and Kang Min-hwan have each attended the party with their own agendas and are expected to move busily according to their respective interests. Kang Min-hwan is focused on business as he meets with officials, while Cheon Yeo-ri assesses current issues by receiving reports from her secretary—their actions further fuel curiosity about what goals each of them is striving to achieve.
