Dive Into You: Kim Ji Yeon and Park Seo Ham’s Soul-Swap Time-Travel Romance Shows Off Chemistry at Script Reading

A top actress trapped in her twin brother’s body, racing against time to save her first love — that’s the wild premise driving Dive Into You, and the newly released script reading footage shows a cast already fully locked into this genre-bending fantasy romance.

A Body Swap With Life-or-Death Stakes

Dive Into You follows Yoon Ha Na (Kim Ji Yeon), a celebrated top star who, after an accident, finds her soul swapped with her twin brother’s. Suddenly thrust back into the past while inhabiting a different body, she scrambles to prevent the death of her first love before it’s too late. It’s a classic body-swap storytelling device — usually played for comedy or self-discovery — but here it’s fused with time travel and genuine emotional stakes.

What the Cast Brought to the Table

The script reading, attended by director So Jae Hyun and writers Kim Bo Geum and Lee On, gave fans their first real glimpse into how each actor is approaching their role:

• Kim Ji Yeon shifted between the emotionally blunted, composed tone of top star Yoon Ha Na and a far more boisterous voice when inhabiting her twin brother’s body — a clear signal of how seriously the body-swap comedy/drama balance is being handled.
• Park Seo Ham, playing first love Jung Woo Jae, used the depth of his gaze to convey a cautious, guarded personality, subtly hinting at his character’s growth across the story’s timeline.
• Jang Se Hyuk brought mischievous energy to twin brother Yoon Ha Ru, even nailing the comedic challenge of portraying a teenage girl’s mannerisms once the swap occurs.
• Moon Seung You added sharp, businesslike charisma as Seo Ye Rang, the siblings’ fiercest supporter.
