Finally, Song Joong Ki (Reborn Rich) is making a comeback in a romantic Korean drama. The actor is now confirmed to take the main role in the upcoming jTBC original series “My Youth.” Actress Chun Woo Hee (The 8 Show) is also confirmed for the female lead role, where her character will be the love interest of Song Joon Ki’s character, with whom he reunites after 15 years.
Yes! It will be a reunion romance drama about past lovers. Wait until I tell you the story and the characters of the drama. There seems to be a solid reunion romance plot here. Sun Woo Hae (played by Song Joong Ki), a novelist and florist, had a troubled past. He was a shining child actor but couldn’t succeed—not because he was less talented, but because of the greed of others. According to the synopsis by AsianWiki, Sun Woo Hae still faced struggles and went through the darkest time of his life. However, his first love, Sung Je Yeon, helped him get through it. Today, he is finally living a peaceful life, but Sung Je Yean reappears, reminding him of his past.
Sun Woo Hae was also Sung Je Yeon’s first love. When he was going through a tough time, Je Yeon was facing problems of her own. She came from a wealthy family, but they experienced a downfall. They both helped each other through their difficult times. Because of this, today, Sung Je Yeon only cares about success. She works as a team leader at Feel Entertainment. Reuniting with Woo Hae reminds her of her past life.
So this is it. I’m sure romance will blossom as they reunite and heal each other once again.
According to NamuWiki, Lee Joo Myung (Like Flowers in Sand), Seo Ji Hoon (Tarot), will also be in the main cast of the drama. Also, the filming for the drama has already begin. “My Youth” is looking to air next year.
