## Spoilers
### Premise and story
The series is set at Hangang University, where a sudden merger brings the computer engineering department and the modeling department together and requires students of the two programs to study alongside each other.[1](https://asianwiki.com/LOVE.exe) Kang Min-hak is a modeling-department student who gained a million social media followers after appearing on a dating program; Joo Yeon-san is the top student in computer engineering, able to solve problems quickly but unable to move on after a single error, and uninterested in dating.[1](https://asianwiki.com/LOVE.exe) The two are described as polar opposites running on completely different "operating systems," and the title frames their relationship as a program named LOVE.exe launched between two seemingly incompatible systems.[2](https://kdrama.co.kr/dramas/love-exe/) • [7](https://www.roku.com/whats-on/tv-shows/loveexe?id=f32afc1b28689072ed62e3b6cd438e71)
Their connection begins after a mortifying classroom accident involving a "personal device" goes viral, leaving Yeon-san branded the "Dildo Princess" online; Min-hak comes to her rescue, and the romance develops amid a student rebellion, a high-stakes app development competition, and relentless public scrutiny.[8](https://nowplayer.now.com/ondemand/detail?id=S202606130203524&lang=en&type=series) • [9](https://www.viu.com/ott/viuscene/love-exe-kdrama-review-episodes-guide-2025/) The story also weaves in viral culture, app development, and online hate alongside conventional rom-com tropes.[9](https://www.viu.com/ott/viuscene/love-exe-kdrama-review-episodes-guide-2025/)
### Cast and characters
Kim Yo-han and Hwang Bo-reum-byeol lead the cast as Kang Min-hak and Joo Yeon-san.[1](https://asianwiki.com/LOVE.exe) The supporting cast includes Kwon Young-eun as Yang Na-rae, Heo Jeong-do as Ki Mo-hyan, Lim Sung-kyun as Ban Ji-no, Kang Shin as Im Yu-ri, Woo Ji-hyun as Kang Jae-hak, Lee Ji-hye as Uhm Nan-sae, and Minseo as [Kang Dong-won](https://www.edgepedia.org/kang-dong-won).[2](https://kdrama.co.kr/dramas/love-exe/) • [4](https://www.betaseries.com/en/show/loveexe)

The first original soundtrack release, "Up&Down," performed by BAE of the group NMIXX, was released at noon on November 13, 2025, the premiere date, and is described as pairing a 1990s-flavored guitar riff with a bright bass line to capture the leads' campus romance.[11](https://image.kbsmedia.co.kr/kbsmedia/uploads/PRESS_RELEASE_20260106164412_e2cf9678e1988d50f5eec0d418d12c3b.pdf)
## Reception
Audience scores placed the series in the middling-to-favorable range: IMDb users gave it 6.3 out of 10 from 105 votes, TMDB listed 7.4 out of 10, and MyDramaList users rated it 7.3 out of 10.[5](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt38839138/ratings/) • [2](https://kdrama.co.kr/dramas/love-exe/) • [6](https://reviews.nanitalk.com/love-exe-review/) Viewer reactions were divided. Some reviewers praised the leads' chemistry, the brisk pacing of the roughly 40-minute episodes, and the show's handling of LGBTQ+ representation and characters with disabilities, while others found the plot loose and the second half's pivot to campus protest politics a detour from the romance.[12](https://kdramaworlds.com/k-drama-guide/love-exe-2025-episode-guide-cast-ending-explained/) [Letterboxd](https://www.edgepedia.org/letterboxd) user reviews were similarly split, with some calling the main couple cute and praising the chemistry while others questioned the ending.[13](https://letterboxd.com/film/loveexe/) A reviewer for IDN Times described the show's tone as resembling audio-visual fan fiction, with an enemies-to-lovers arc and Kim Yo-han shedding his innocent schoolboy image.[14](https://www.idntimes.com/korea/kdrama/review-drakor-love-exe-nuansanya-kayak-fan-fiction-versi-audio-visual-00-6x7yf-80tjcl)
