Season overview

Role: Meticulous television and film archivist.
Task: Produce a JSON object for "Lovely Horribly" Season 1.
Keys: overview (160-220 word summary), primer (array of exactly 4 concise bullet points).
Constraints: Use ONLY provided synopsis and sources. No invented facts. No markdown/asterisks/headings/bullets in the prose (though primer is an array). Output valid JSON only.
Input Data:
TMDB Synopsis: Strange events haunt a charmed actor and an unlucky writer, who unknowingly share one fate, when they begin working on a TV drama together.
Source 1: Actor and screenwriter find lives entwined by more than just work as the drama they're writing starts to... (cut off).
Source 3: South Korean series starring Park Si-hoo and Song Ji-hyo with Lee Gi-kwang, Hahm Eun-jung and Choi Yeo-jin. Aired on KBS2 from August 13 to October 2, 2018.
Source 4: 32 episodes. Aired Aug 13, 2018 - Oct 2, 2018.
Overview: Needs to be 160-220 words.
Wait, the provided synopsis is very short: "Strange events haunt a charmed actor and an unlucky writer, who unknowingly share one fate, when they begin working on a TV drama together."
The source 1 says: "An actor and a screenwriter find their lives entwined by more than just work as the drama they're writing starts to..."
There is almost no narrative detail provided to reach 160-220 words.
If I write only what is provided, I cannot reach 160 words without inventing details.
Constraint Check: "You write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported by the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES. You never invent or guess... If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."
If I omit everything not provided, the overview will be about 30 words.
However, the prompt demands a 160-220 word summary.
This is a conflict. Usually, in these types of prompts, the "verifiable facts" rule takes precedence over the "word count" rule if the word count is impossible to meet without violating the primary rule of not inventing facts.
Let's see if I can expand using the available facts:
