Contract co-parenting in The Real Deal Has Come

by Jenzy

New stills and a short teaser have dropped for new KBS weekender drama The Real Deal Has Come, giving us a peek into the baby-making antics of Baek Jin-hee (Happy to Die) and her contract hubby Ahn Jae-hyun (People with Flaws).

The 50-episode series will follow the hijinks between the unmarried and pregnant teacher, Oh Yeon-doo (Baek Jin-hee), and the single OB-GYN doctor, Gong Tae-kyung (Ahn Jae-hyun). Somehow, the two end up in a contract marriage to co-parent her unborn baby. It’s an unconventional setup, but will their camaraderie as fellow comrades in the battle against dirty diapers and late nights forge a bond beyond their one on paper? Remains to be seen.

Of course, there will be bumps in the road for our couple in the form of current and past loves. On Tae-kyung’s side is his first love Jang Se-jin, played by Cha Ju-young (The Glory). And as for Yeon-doo, she’ll start the drama in a relationship with the successful investor Kim Joon-ha, played by Jung Eui-jae (King of Pigs), but things will take a rocky turn after a crisis shocks their relationship.

The teaser shows our foursome pondering over the arrival of a certain delivery. Yeon-doo starts by musing, “It’s supposed to be here.” Tae-kyung then enters and asks Yeon-doo, “Are you sure it’s coming?” Ju-young and Joon-ha also chime in skeptically: “You’re lying right?” “I don’t think it’s coming.”

But lo and behold, the delivery arrives, and our leads all stare — some pleased, others aghast — at the newborn baby now in front of them.

Written by Jo Jung-soo (Are You Human Too?) and directed by Han Joon-seo (Beautiful Love, Wonderful Life), The Real Deal Has Come will premiere on March 25 after Three Brave Siblings.
