Imagine needing your crush within arm’s reach just to stay powered on. That’s the delightfully absurd hook of Take Charge of My Heart, a new Netflix rom-com that has just released a fresh batch of stills. With the premiere only days away, the sparks are already flying.

A Heart That Runs on Battery
The premise is as fun as it sounds. Baek Ho Rang is a cool and collected man whose artificial heart is running out of battery. Na Bo Bae is a woman with the unique power to recharge him. The closer they get, the more he charges, which means they have no choice but to rely on each other.
For background on the lead actor, see Kim Young-kwang on Wikipedia.
The “Romance Gauge” Is Rising
The new stills lean into the idea that as the battery charges, so does the romance. In the images, Baek Ho Rang gazes at Na Bo Bae intently, while she smiles back with an excited expression. Their close proximity is what makes the photos so eye-catching.
From Lifts to Theme Parks
The stills also show the pair on a date. Highlights include Baek Ho Rang effortlessly lifting Na Bo Bae into his arms, a birthday party they celebrate together, and a theme park date where they fulfill their romantic fantasies. It’s a sweet preview of the heart-fluttering moments in store.
What the Director Says
Director Park Soo Won says the key highlight is the emotional journey of the two leads as they go through an intense period of denying their feelings. She describes the core concept as a unique relationship in which Ho Rang loses power when they’re apart and recharges when they’re together.
There’s also a funny twist: despite being a third-generation chaebol, Ho Rang has to become the “subordinate” when it comes to recharging. The director promises romantic chemistry that grows stronger with each episode.
