The Amazon Prime original My Man Is Cupid dropped its main trailer. 

My Man Is Cupid tells the story of a fairy, Cheon Sang Hyuk, whose wings were burned 500 years ago. He meets Oh Baek Ryun, a woman with bad luck that results in near-death experiences for those who try to date her.

The trailer commences with Cheon Sang Hyuk (Jang Dong Yoon) saying, "This will make it so that he loves her to death," and we see Sang Hyuk aiming at a man with his mysterious gun. As he shoots, a spark hits a man in the chest, and he confesses to someone, "I fell for you at first sight."

Cheon Sang Hyuk says, "That's what I do," hinting at his job as a cupid. 

In the next scene, Oh Baek Ryun (Nana) asks Sang Hyuk, "Are you a cupid?" Sang Hyuk struggles to answer.

In the following scene, Sang Hyuk says, "I have a lot of complaints to make," and we see him aiming a mysterious arrow. The following title card reads, "Cupid faces the greatest challenge of his life." 

Baek Ryun angrily says, "If you can smite a young and handsome guy for me, then I'll acknowledge you."

She then lays out the important requirement of her ideal type: looks. She says she wants someone "like Won Bin, Hyun Bin, or Zo In Sung." Sang Hyuk affirms, "No way!"

Baek Ryun, tired of being chased by the bad luck that results in near-death experiences for those who try to date her, asks a tarot reader, "Why do these things happen to me? Why does every man I meet get into some kind of accident." He gives her a solution, saying, "Climb to the top of Inwangsan Mountain and beg with all your heart for forgiveness. On the day of the thousandth time, you go up to ask for forgiveness... someone will appear."

She follows his advice and sees Sang Hyuk coming into her life. She believes he is the man destined for her. 

Sang Hyuk denies it, saying, "It's just a coincidence. A coincidental match." But Baek Ryun isn't among the ones to easily quit. Even if it's a coincidence, she isn't willing to give him up and says he is her nobleman. 

Curiosity piques about the changing relationship dynamics of Cheon Sang Hyuk and Oh Baek Ryun.

My Man Is Cupid will air on December 1. Watch the K-drama's latest trailer below
