Make Me Tingle: When Your Awkward Blind Date Becomes Your Client, and Your Comfort Zone Gets Rewritten

We have all had that one awkward first meeting we hoped never to repeat. Now imagine you meet that person again, only this time, they are your new client.

That is the setup of Make Me Tingle, a chaotic romantic comedy that premieres today, October 15, at 6 p.m. KST. New stills have just dropped, and they show exactly why this drama has people curious. Here is what to know before you press play.

Make Me Tingle: Overview

The Story: A Cautious Heart Meets an Unexpected Project

Gong Yeon Su believes in love, but she has never quite worked out what it means for her. She grew up in a family with traditional values and has always been careful about dating. At the urging of her family elders, she goes on a blind date with Dokgo Dal, a startup CEO. Nothing comes of it. She was never keen on marriage-focused dating, and he showed no special interest either.

Then life brings them back together. Hoping to shake up her routine, Yeon Su volunteers for a new project and discovers her client is Dokgo Dal. His company is a sex-toy startup, and she is now in charge of its marketing.

For someone with a conservative view of love and intimacy, that is more than a work challenge. It pushes her to rethink beliefs she has held for years. Fans of Nam Ji Hyun will recognise how well she carries a character caught between expectation and curiosity.

What the New Stills Show?

An Office She Was Not Ready For

In the first set of stills, Yeon Su visits Dokgo Dal’s company and struggles to hide her bewilderment at the unfamiliar sights around her. Dal, meanwhile, stays focused on his work and seems unaware she has even arrived. It is a small moment, but it sets up the comedy: she is flustered, and he is unbothered.

Homework at the Family Home

Other stills show Yeon Su studying for her new assignment on her own. She watches a documentary about love and intimate relationships at her traditional family home and gets so absorbed that she does not notice her aunt, Gong Mi Young (Jeong In Ji), sitting beside her.

The twist is that her aunt watches along without any visible shock. That scene hints at the generational and cultural gaps Yeon Su will navigate, and promises plenty of laughs from her family’s reactions.
