A quiet lecture hall, a raised hand, and a question that lingers in the air — the new poster for ENA’s upcoming romance drama *Between Steps* sets a strikingly intimate tone for a love story built on second chances and unexpected connection.

## Between Steps: Premise

*Between Steps* tells the story of two people finding their way back to themselves — and to each other — in graduate school. **Park Min Jae** (played by Choo Young Woo) is a former swimmer who lost his right leg due to illness, now redirecting his discipline into research. **Im Yoo Jin** (played by Kim So Hyun) is a graduate student whose academic future collapses when she’s suddenly branded a “troublemaker” in her department right before graduation, closing off her original career path.

When their paths cross, Park Min Jae introduces Im Yoo Jin to the world of robotics — and in the process, the two quietly begin changing each other’s lives.

## The New Poster

The freshly released poster captures the pair in a hushed lecture hall: Park Min Jae seated at the front, and Im Yoo Jin looking toward him with her hand raised as if mid-question. The tagline accompanying it reads: **“Is there such a thing as a right answer when it comes to love?”** — a fitting thematic anchor for a story about two people navigating uncertainty in both their academic and emotional lives.

## A Director’s Legacy Project

*Between Steps* comes from the late director **Ahn Pan Seok**, known for helming beloved hits like *Something in the Rain*, *One Spring Night*, and *The Midnight Romance in Hagwon*. Given his track record with slow-burn, emotionally grounded romances, expectations are understandably high for how this story will be handled.
