The relationship between Kim Jae-won and Kim Go-eun progresses in ‘Yumi’s Cells 3,’ drawing attention from viewers.
In Episode 3 of the TVING original series ‘Yumi’s Cells Season 3,’ which aired on the 20th, Soonrok (played by Kim Jae-won) suggested watching a movie with Yumi (played by Kim Go-eun). Initially, his approach was tied to Juho’s (Choi Daniel) advances, but the moment led to a shift in the dynamic between the two characters.
The episode follows Yumi as she begins to experience emotional changes again. She initially misunderstands Soonrok’s intentions, thinking he was trying to distance himself professionally, but his explanation clears the misunderstanding and creates a subtle turning point in their relationship. A scene where Soonrok misses his train and Yumi reacts quietly highlights the gradual development of her feelings. Yumi later travels to Busan, where Soonrok is attending a publishing workshop, and the two share a more relaxed and comfortable interaction.
However, the direction of their relationship remains uncertain. Yumi reflects on the age difference between them, while Juho’s continued closeness adds to her confusion. A situation in which Juho encourages Soonrok to leave early creates another misunderstanding between the characters.
At the same time, Soonrok begins to express his own perspective. When asked whether Yumi and Juho suit each other, he responds that he does not think they are a good match. Later, after the workshop gathering, he offers to accompany Yumi home and suggests watching a movie together, signaling a shift in their relationship.
Following the broadcast, viewers shared positive responses, commenting on Kim Jae-won’s portrayal of Soonrok and the overall casting.
Meanwhile, ‘Yumi’s Cells 3’ is pre-released every Monday at 6 p.m. on TVING and airs on tvN on Mondays and Tuesdays at 8:50 p.m.
