Head Over Heels episode 9 release date and time:Fans ofHead Over Heelshave been riding an emotional rollercoaster with this swoon-worthy K-drama, and it’s safe to say episode 9 is one of the most anticipated ones yet. With only a few episodes left, the story is starting to hit harder, and viewers are more invested than ever in where the relationships are heading. If you're wondering when episode 9 drops and what to expect next, here's everything we know.
At first glance, Park Seong Ah (played by Cho Yi-hyun) looks like your average high schooler. But outside the classroom, she leads a double life as Fairy Cheon Ji, a shaman with the rare ability to communicate with spirits. Things take a dramatic turn when Bae Gyeon Woo (Choo Young Woo), a mysterious transfer student, enters her school.
Seong Ah soon gets a terrifying vision: Gyeon Woo is going to die in just 21 days. What follows is a tense race against time, as she taps into ancient rituals and teams up with a cheeky ghost named Bong Soo to rewrite his destiny.
Episode 7 took a supernatural turn when Gyeon Woo, trying to protect Seong Ah, ends up getting possessed by Bong Soo, the cheeky ghost with a grudge. The haunted house incident leaves Gyeon Woo stuck with Bong Soo inside him. However, Seong Ah soon realises his touch can help free Gyeon Woo from the possession of the ghost, but they must find a permanent solution.
In Episode 8, things get more intense. Seong Ah’s connection to both Gyeon Woo and Bong Soo grows deeper as they perform powerful rituals together. We also get a peek into Yeom Hwa’s heartbreaking backstory, which adds some much-needed context to her dark motives. When Seong Ah casts a dangerous spell to help Gyeon Woo regain control of his body, he manages to compete in an archery event. He nails it, but Yeom Hwa hits back hard. Her curse exposes Seong Ah’s fairy identity to Gyeon Woo, which means he can now see ghosts too. And that’s where things get really complicated.
Now that Gyeon Woo can see spirits, episode 9 is going to shake things up even more. His new ability puts him in danger during another big archery match, but Seong Ah’s prayers help him get through it. Still, that win brings more problems. Jealousy starts to brew at school, and Yeom Hwa’s hidden past begins to surface. In a surprising moment, Bong Soo steps in to help Seong Ah when a ritual leaves her completely drained.
Gyeon Woo and Bong Soo might clash, and we’ll likely get more flashbacks to explain what’s really going on. The question is, with Gyeon Woo’s life still hanging in the balance, can Seong‑ah save him in time—or is it already too late?
Head Over Heels episode 9 airs today, Monday, July 21, 2025, on tvN at 8:50 PM KST, with subtitles dropping soon after on platforms like Amazon Prime Video and TVING. For international viewers, here’s when you can watch: 6:50 AM PT, 9:50 AM ET, 1:50 PM GMT, and 6:20 PM IST.
