Cheon Yeo Ri is drawn to a remote crime scene and into a dangerous encounter in the next episode of Spooky in Love.

Park Eun Bin’s Cheon Yeo Ri is headed into her most precarious situation yet in the next episode of Spooky in Love. The occult romance has paired a heroine who can see ghosts with a prosecutor whose fear of them complicates every supernatural clue. Its latest preview shifts that unusual partnership toward a grounded and immediate danger: a suspected murderer in a secluded mountain area.
A warning leads to the mountains
Cheon Yeo Ri’s ability has repeatedly put her close to stories that others cannot fully see. This time, a ghost guides her toward a crime scene away from the safety of the city. The setting gives the new case a more isolated atmosphere, with little sign of help nearby and no easy path out once she reaches the site. It is a sharp change from the social spaces and shared investigations that normally give the character room to assess a clue before deciding what to do next.
The encounter also places the drama’s supernatural premise beside a human threat. Ghostly guidance may point Yeo Ri in the right direction, but it cannot remove the risk of confronting someone who believes a crime can remain hidden. The preview frames that collision as the central question for the episode, rather than treating her gift as a simple solution.
Cheon Yeo Ri keeps her composure
New stills show Yeo Ri meeting the suspect face to face after arriving at the mountain location. Despite being alone, she appears to stay composed as the situation develops. That response fits a character who has learned to live with unsettling visions, although the danger here is not something she can dismiss as another unexplained encounter. Her calmness matters because it makes clear that the threat is escalating around her even as she tries to remain focused on the facts in front of her.
For the man she meets, Yeo Ri’s appearance is an unwelcome disruption. He had expected his plan to go undetected, and her presence threatens that expectation. The preview uses the contrast between her controlled expression and his mounting anger to build tension before revealing how the confrontation will unfold.
A case that tests the drama’s central duo
A final image leaves Yeo Ri on the ground after the attacker shoves her, raising the stakes beyond the investigation itself. The moment suggests the episode will test both her ability to read a dangerous situation and the limits of her independence. It also leaves open whether she can get away before the case becomes even more personal.
That scenario naturally brings attention back to the show’s unlikely central partnership. Yeo Ri is accustomed to following signs that others might ignore, while the prosecutor at the center of the story must contend with a world he finds deeply frightening. A case involving an active killer gives both characters a reason to move beyond their usual friction and act under pressure. The question is no longer merely whether they can interpret the supernatural evidence; it is whether they can reach the same conclusion quickly enough to keep one another safe.
Spooky in Love is a remake of the 2011 film Spellbound, reworking its blend of romance and supernatural suspense for television. The series follows hotel heiress Yeo Ri as her connection to ghosts intersects with the work of the prosecutor who becomes entangled in her life. The mountain case highlights how the series can move between eerie clues, emotional uncertainty, and more conventional thriller stakes.
The next episode airs on August 1 at 9:10 p.m. KST. With Yeo Ri separated from the people most likely to help her and a furious suspect determined to protect his secret, the episode is set to push the drama’s supernatural mystery into a sharp new phase.
