Kim Woo-bin and Suzy Reunite in Netflix Fantasy Rom-Com Genie, Make a Wish
Friday, September 19, 2025Kim Woo-bin and Suzy are back together on screen in Genie, Make a Wish, a playful yet high-stakes fantasy romantic comedy set to premiere worldwide on Netflix on October 3.
The series follows Genie (Kim Woo-bin), a devilish trickster freed after a thousand years who has always thrived on luring humans into corruption through their own desires. His latest master, however, is Ka-young (Suzy), a stoic woman unmoved by emotions. Instead of making wishes, she throws down a startling bet: if Genie’s claim that all humans are destined to turn corrupt proves true, she will spend all her wishes and surrender her life.
Their bizarre pact sparks a whirlwind of comedic clashes and unexpected intimacy. From rooftop shoves and sharp insults to a sweeping kiss and a waltz suspended in time, Genie and Ka-young’s uneasy partnership evolves into a connection that neither anticipated. Questions rise as the story unfolds. Why does Ka-young, once frozen to emotion, begin to cry? What triggers Genie’s fury? And what happens when the lamp falls into someone else’s hands?
The drama marks a highly anticipated reunion for two of Korea’s most beloved rom-com stars and brings together a vibrant ensemble cast featuring Ahn Eun-jin, Noh Sang-hyun, Ko Kyu-phil and Lee Zoo-young.
“Genie, Make a Wish is about three wishes and countless temptations,” says writer Kim Eun-sook. “Audiences will be swept away almost unconsciously by the storm of emotions and desires that ripple through these characters and the world they inhabit.”
Packed with magic, temptation and romance, Genie, Make a Wish premieres globally on October 3, only on Netflix.
