Set in South Korea between the 1980s and 1990s, the upcoming K-drama is a coming-of-age show. The last decades of the twentieth century were pivotal in Korea's history because they coincided with a time of political instability, massive economic growth, and profound cultural shifts.

While the script was being read, the room exuded a youthful vibe as Jang Dong-yoon and Chu Young-woo delved into their character. They will play zealous young students who were undergoing a major transformation in their lives as they experienced love for the first time.
Jang Dong-yoon plays the role of the male lead Lee Doo-hak. From humble beginnings, Lee Doo-hak has come a long way. He's a smart man who's also kind and has strong moral principles despite his rough upbringing.
Actor Chu Youn-woo brings Choi Chul-woong to the screen. Chul-woong is Lee Doo-hak’s biggest adversary and poses a challenge to him on all fronts.
The K-drama is set to premiere on March 6 on KBS2 and fans can't wait to see what it has in store for them.
