On October 30, Ilgan Sports reported that Wavve had revealed its November lineup in a “Monthly Wavve” video, including Francesca Next Door among the titles premiering on November 6 ([Ilgan Sports](https://v.isplus.com/article/view/isp202610300026)).
Four episodes released across two Fridays
According to The Fact, the series has four episodes, with two released every Friday starting November 6 ([The Fact](https://m.tf.co.kr/amp/entertain/2378242.htm)). On that schedule, episodes 1 and 2 arrive on November 6, followed by episodes 3 and 4 on November 13. The episodes are split across two release dates, so viewers can plan to watch them on both Fridays.
A vampire spin-off moves to high school
The series has been described as a spin-off that expands on the vampire premise of the 2005 MBC sitcom Hello, Francesca, with the setting shifted to a high school ([YTN](https://www.ytn.co.kr/_ln/0117_202610201000058269)). The reported premise follows Pi Na-young, a vampire who transfers from Romania and tries to adjust to the human world and school life, where she meets class president Jang Woo-joo. The vampire mythology carried over from the original and the new school setting are two key parts of the story.
The trailer’s secret and the cast’s roles
YTN Star reported that Wavve released the main poster and trailer on October 27 ([YTN Star](https://star.ytn.co.kr/_sn/0117_202610271106414536)). The trailer shows Pi Na-young’s identity being revealed to Jang Woo-joo, and the two sharing a secret. It also features the return of Sim Hye-jin as her original character. Cast information identifies Han Su-a as Pi Na-young, Kim Hyun-jin as Jang Woo-joo, and Lee Seung-gyu as Yoo-hyeol; Sim Hye-jin, Park Seul-gi and Park Hee-jin are reported to make special appearances in their original roles. The trailer’s scenes and cast details are distinct from the full plot or ending of the series.
KOCOWA+’s release window at the time
On September 13, KOCOWA+’s official blog announced that the series would be available on its service and gave its release window at the time as the second half of 2026 ([KOCOWA+ official blog](https://blog.kocowa.com/hello-francesca-is-returning-after-20-years-with-a-new-vampire-spin-off/)). Reports about Wavve gave dates for individual episodes, while the blog provided a broader release window. The episode dates reported for Wavve can therefore be distinguished from KOCOWA+’s timeframe announcement at the time.
