The romantic film "My Youth" tells the story of Sunwoo Hae (Song Joong Ki) - a former child star who has passed his peak and is now starting a simple life as a flower shop owner.
But the return of Sung Je Yeon (Chun Woo Hee) - Sunwoo Hae's 1-year love, now a novelist, brought unexpected changes and stirred up his life.
Right before airing, My Youth received positive reviews from the media and audience for its youthful, beautiful appearance and the chemical reaction of Song Joong Ki and Chun Woo Hee.
Sharing about this with the Korean media at the press conference on September 4, Song Joong Ki said: I even heard the film crew staff say that our appearances were very compatible.
That was the best compliment I had ever received when acting in a romantic film. I always value being compatible with my co-star, so when I get such compliments, I feel extremely happy. Even I find our appearances very compatible.
Meanwhile, Chun Woo Hee could not hide her joy: Our chemistry in acting is as good as our appearance. When filming with Joong Ki, many people commented that we looked like brothers in a romantic film. I thought, We really have a lot in common.
I often say a lot during the acting process, but Joong Ki is very dynamic. He was the centerpiece on set, often asking my opinion during his acting. That made me feel very comfortable and appreciate this cooperation.
According to Song Joong Ki, Chun Woo Hee is his Best Co-star. The actor said that thanks to the actress, both of them had a period of filming many memories. They chatted and discussed a lot, to the point that "there is nothing to regret".
The film "My Youth" is scheduled to premiere on the evening of September 5. With initial positive signals, the work is expected to help JTBC revive viewership after the previous declining drama - The Good guys (played by Lee Dong Wook, Lee Sung Kyung), which ended with a rating of 3.1%.
