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 19-year-old first love brought unexpected changes and shook his life.
Since its announcement, My Youth has received attention from the public. When the first photos of Song Joong Ki and Chun Woo Hee were revealed, the audience praised the youthful, beautiful appearance of the two Korean stars.
Sharing about the project, Song Joong Ki said that right from the moment he read the script, he felt the warmth.
I love this humane love story, a genre that I have not had the opportunity to experience for a long time. Unlike my previous roles that were strongly fanciful, the character Sunwoo Hae is close to reality and really touches me, he said.
According to the actor, for Sunwoo Hae, Sung Je Yeon is the "savior". She was the one who pulled him out of hiding and helped him step into the world.
When working with Chun Woo Hee, the actor was extremely excited. During filming, I spent a lot of time talking with Chun Woo Hee. I feel comfortable and secure because we can work while communicating openly and sincerely with each other.
Meanwhile, Chun Woo Hee described Sunwoo Hae and Sung Je Yeon's relationship as a "mentory box" because "When you open it, you will immediately be brought back to the moment you have forgotten everything".
The actress also felt comfortable working with her seniors. "We talked a lot about the script and reflected together during filming. Thanks to the sharing and care, the atmosphere on set was great" - the female star added.
