Shin Hye Sun Tackles Dissociative Identity Disorder in Upcoming Romance Drama "Dear Hyeri"

The upcoming romance drama “Dear Hyeri” has unveiled an intriguing teaser video that promises a deep and emotional storyline.

“Dear Hyeri” is a healing romance drama that centers on Joo Eun Ho (Shin Hye Sun), an announcer who develops dissociative identity disorder after her younger sibling goes missing and she breaks up with her longtime boyfriend, Hyun Oh (Lee Jin Wook).

The teaser showcases the duality of Joo Eun Ho’s character. It begins with her voice conveying the heavy burden she bears, as she admits, “I’m burned out every day.” This somber mood is contrasted with the lively and carefree persona of Joo Hye Ri, her alter ego, who cheerfully proclaims, “I’m happy.” Through this juxtaposition, the teaser visually emphasizes the stark contrast between Joo Eun Ho’s internal struggles and Joo Hye Ri’s outward happiness.

The scenes alternate between Joo Eun Ho’s moments of sorrow and Joo Hye Ri’s vibrant experiences, highlighting the complexity of living with dissociative identity disorder. The teaser concludes with the thought-provoking line, “You’re saying, I’m the same person as this person?” hinting at the emotional and psychological depth of the narrative.
