‘Can This Love Be Translated?’ is a romantic comedy where Ju Ho-jin, an interpreter connecting different languages, and Cha Mu-hee, a beloved star, meet to understand the language of love in their own ways. Viewers can enjoy a joyful and heart-fluttering romance as they watch the two grow both individually and as a couple.<\/p>\n
The idea came from the unique situation of an ‘interpreter.’ When language fails, even a translation app can be a great help. Imagine the profound dependency on a human interpreter. The story began with the idea that such an intense dependency could create an interesting romantic dynamic.<\/p>\n
Love, ultimately, is communication. Yet, each person’s language of love is incredibly distinct, often making it difficult to precisely convey true feelings. This story aims to portray a romance relatable to anyone who has been in love, where interpreters encounter someone who expresses love in a contrasting manner.<\/p>\n
As we developed a story involving ‘interpreters’ centered on love and communication, it was a natural choice to use these core elements in the title.<\/p>\n
From the planning stage, we aimed to include diverse locales. A foreign travel destination as a setting imbues characters’ emotions with a unique quality. Japan’s Kamakura was chosen for the characters’ exciting first meeting, while Canada offered a transformative aurora experience. Italy, the setting for the romance’s peak, provides an ideal romantic atmosphere.<\/p>\n
We centered the relationship on episodes between a straightforward communicator and an indirect one, showcasing how love challenges communication.<\/p>\n
Beyond Ho-jin and Mu-hee, many interesting dynamics exist. For example, Mu-hee profoundly connects with Hiro despite the language barrier.<\/p>\n
We sought unique locations for first meetings and foreign scenic spots. Thanks to the production team’s efforts, we found beautiful travel destinations that will delight viewers.<\/p>\n
Kim Seon-ho’s casting brought immense joy to the writing process; he exceeded expectations in portraying his character’s dynamic moments. Go Youn-jung’s bright energy perfectly suited the character, and she navigated the challenging dual role superbly.<\/p>\n
We had extensive conversations to ensure the highest quality production, aiming to craft a drama that makes viewers feel delighted and excited about travel.<\/p>\n
All scenes featuring Ho-jin and Mu-hee are enjoyable, with the ending of episode 9 standing out for its beautiful and dramatic lines.<\/p>\n
The chemistry between the leads in both romance and comedy is excellent, making the story delightful. Additionally, the global locations offer visual pleasure and inspire a desire to travel.<\/p>\n
It’s nerve-wracking yet exciting to introduce a series that conveys universally relatable themes of love intertwined with beautiful international scenery. As the first release of 2026, we hope it warmly embraces New Year audiences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
