Head Over Heels episode 9 release date and time: Can Seong Ah break Yeom Hwa's curse and help Gyeon Woo win the archery contest?
Head Over Heels episode 9 release date and time: Fans of Head Over Heels have 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. What is Head Over Heels all about? 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. Head Over Heels episodes 7-8 recap 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. What to expect in Head Over Heels episode 9 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 release date and time 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.

Head Over Heels episodes 9-10 spoilers: Will Seong Ah succeed in removing Bong Soo's ghost from Gyeon Woo's body once and for all?
Every episode of Head Over Heels ends with a cliffhanger that keeps fans counting down the days until the next drop. Unfortunately, that week-long wait only makes the suspense worse. After the emotional twist in episode 8, where Gyeon Woo starts seeing a ghost and Yeom Hwa begins a ritual that leaves him unable to control his own body, viewers are left wondering: can he still win gold in the archery championship, or has fate already interfered? Based on the preview released by tvN and information circulating on K-drama forums, here are some spoilers for this week's episodes of Head Over Heels. Head Over Heels episode 7-8 recap In episodes 7 and 8 of Head Over Heels, Gyeon Woo becomes fully possessed by Bong Soo's ghost after entering a haunted house to save Seong Ah. Though shamans try to intervene, it's Seong Ah's touch that briefly brings Gyeon Woo back to himself, hinting at their spiritual connection and his growing feelings for Seong Ah. Bong Soo, now more mischievous than malevolent, challenges Seong Ah and Yeom Hwa to a contest to find his body, with the winner granted a wish. Meanwhile, Yeom Hwa's dark past comes to light—she once attempted to revive her stillborn child, a mistake that cost her dearly and fuels her resentment toward spirit-mother Dongcheon. As Seong Ah and Gyeon Woo stay overnight in a sacred room to attempt a ritual, their bond grows stronger, culminating in Gyeon Woo's public confession and entry into an archery contest, despite Bong Soo's control. In episode 8, a ritual reveals more of Yeom Hwa's grief-driven motives, while Gyeon Woo's condition worsens. Bong Soo, who we realise is not that mischievous after all and has slowly started falling for Seong Ah, teaches her a method to keep Gyeon Woo's body in his control for a while despite his possession to win the archery competition. Fuelled by Seong Ah's faith in him and his renewed love for archery, Gyeon Woo is determined to win this competition until he begins to see and hear ghosts even when unpossessed. Despite Seong Ah temporarily suppressing the spirit with the help of Bong Soo, allowing Gyeon Woo to reclaim himself. However, Yeom Hwa counters with her own magic, leading to a major turning point as Gyeon Woo catches a glimpse of Seong Ah's hidden fairy form, meaning his eyes have now opened. Head Over Heels episodes 9-10 spoilers In episode 9 of Head Over Heels, Gyeon Woo realises his eyes have truly been opened. Even Seong Ah's touch can no longer calm him. Now able to see ghosts clearly standing in front of him, he struggles to focus during the archery competition. The curse placed by Yeom Hwa gives him persistent headaches and throws him into a state of anxiety and confusion. Seong Ah's prayers help Gyeon Woo win Sensing his distress, Seong Ah begins praying to neutralise Yeom Hwa's curse. Her support works. Gyeon Woo regains his composure and wins the archery championship. But his victory doesn't come without backlash. His former classmates accuse his misfortunes of being the reason for their loss. This time, Gyeon Woo stands up for himself. He tells them he no longer believes he's cursed simply because someone once said so. He's done blaming himself. Yeom Hwa's ritual is exposed As Seong Ah's counterattack is more powerful than Yeom Hwa's curse, it ends up hurting Yeom Hwa. Her secret ritual is eventually discovered by the spirit mother. Yeom Hwa confesses she has been performing a unification ritual to merge herself with Bong Soo. This confession angers the spirit mother, who had been trying to help her all along. Later, Seong Ah talks to her spirit mother about how she felt during the competition. Meanwhile, Yeom Hwa, now defeated, offers a cold and reluctant apology for her actions. That night, while Gyeon Woo sleeps on the floor, Seong Ah, due to her usual sleep habits, rolls over next to him. By morning, her spirit mother finds them sleeping closely and is clearly stunned. Gyeon Woo's strange symptoms return at school At school, Gyeon Woo starts feeling off again. Even though Seong Ah had held his hand before, his senses are now even more heightened. In the washroom, he sees ghosts clearly and checks to make sure no one else is physically there. Growing anxious, he keeps reminding himself that he is the one beside Seong Ah, not Bong Soo. But the pain grows worse, just as the flower master warned. Gyeon Woo shares his body with Bong Soo To ease the pressure, Gyeon Woo allows Bong Soo to take control of his body during school hours, as they had agreed. Soon, Seong Ah notices that people are treating Gyeon Woo differently. They like the "new him" more. This unsettles her. She fears Bong Soo is becoming more popular than Gyeon Woo ever was. Their friends don't know Gyeon Woo's pain or the struggles he has endured. Meanwhile, Gyeon Woo remains conscious, silently watching everything unfold. Seong Ah collapses, and Bong Soo takes care of her After accompanying Gyeon Woo to the archery club, Seong Ah suddenly collapses with a high fever. The physical and emotional strain has finally caught up with her. Gyeon Woo helps her home on his bicycle and takes care of her while she recovers. That night, Bong Soo takes over again, worried about her condition. But the balance between the two souls is starting to crack. Gyeon Woo risks being trapped inside his own body. Eventually, Seong Ah realises that it's Bong Soo in control. He confesses that he wants to stay by her side as a friend. Seong Ah understands what that means—when a ghost wants to befriend someone living, it usually means they have regrets tying them to this world. Bong Soo's identity is finally revealed Bong Soo cannot remember his real name or Gyeon Woo's. His memories are scattered and filled with trauma from his time as a student soldier. Believing that discovering his name could help him, Seong Ah takes him to Yuwol Park, where the names of fallen student soldiers are engraved. They find his name—Jang Haisheng—and his memories begin to return. The ritual to free Bong Soo After hearing his story, Seong Ah performs a ritual to release Bong Soo's spirit from Gyeon Woo's body. But just as the ritual begins, Yeom Hwa intervenes. She tricks the flower master into drinking, then steals his talisman. As the ritual is disrupted, Gyeon Woo feels a dangerous shift happening inside him. Seong Ah rushes to his side. With help from her spirit mother, they manage to counter Yeom Hwa's interference. Yeom Hwa is injured in the process. Seong Ah, now aware of the truth about her spirit mother and Yeom Hwa, reveals the secret about Yeom Hwa's child. Yeom Hwa confronts her spirit mother, demanding to know why the truth was hidden. When she finally learns the real reason, she is overwhelmed. For the first time, she sees that her mother did care. In the upcoming episode, Gyeon Woo and Bong Soo's souls continue to blend. Seong Ah must race against time to help Bong Soo rediscover who he is before Gyeon Woo is lost forever.
