Some dreams don’t die. They just go quiet for fifteen years and wait for the right person to walk back in. That’s the emotional core of ENA’s upcoming rom-com “Dream to You,” and new stills just gave fans their first real look at the woman carrying that weight.
Dream To You: Meet Ju Yi Jae
Hyeri plays Ju Yi Jae, a reporter in her 30s who works simply to get by. Once, she dreamed of becoming a film director. Now she’s compromised with reality — until her old flame Woo Soo Bin, played by Hwang In Youp, returns as a genius director living out the exact future she once imagined for herself.

She noted that Yi Jae never fully lets go of her dream, even while living in a very different reality — and that her reunion with Soo Bin is what finally brings that dream back to the surface.
