The Do-Over

A woman gets a second chance at her college years in this charming rom-com from Park (The Christmas Clash). Acclaimed author Lily Lee has everything going for her: a series of smash-hit career empowerment books for women and a promising new executive role at her dream company. But when the company runs a background check, it discovers—to Lily’s surprise and horror—that she never officially graduated from college due to a clerical error. Lily has no choice but to leave New York City and discreetly return to Carlthorpe College to finish her degree without her publisher or her fans finding out. Matters grow even more complicated when she realizes that her new TA is her college ex, PhD candidate Jake Cho, who instantly recognizes Lily and seizes his “twice-in-a-lifetime chance” to make things right between them and win her back. As Lily navigates collegiate coming-of-age—again—she’s presented with a unique opportunity to explore what could have been if her life had taken a different route. Park’s pitch-perfect comedic timing and knack for creating heartstrings-tugging moments make this thoughtful romance really shine. This is a winner. Agent: Brent Taylor, Triada U.S. (Apr.)
