Kim Yo Han and So Joo Yeon are all set to gift us with a beautiful first love story!
I am nervous and anticipating this Korean remake of one of my favorite youth-first-love stories. 아름다웠던 우리에게 To Us Who Were Beautiful (LT) is a Korean adaptation of the famed Chinese youth series A Love So Beautiful starring Hu Yitian and Shen Yue.
Casting Kim Yo Han, who I automatically dote as Produce X 101 baby, and the bright and adorable So Ju Yeon made me anticipate this project more. And yes, I’m not scared that the love pairing is relatively new actors.
The charm of A Love So Beautiful is best served by earnest and sincere characterizations. Something the two aforementioned actors won’t lack.
If the Korean version will not sway much from the original story, To Us Who Were Beautiful traverses the young and sweet love story of a girl and her first love. Harboring one-sided love to her childhood friend, she eventually realized the feeling is mutual. The series traverses their high school, college and career years.
When the original version was aired in 2017, it trended domestically and overseas. Currently streaming on Netflix, it continuously receives attention and praises as a trademark youth drama that can be appreciated by varying age range.
Produced digitally and optimized for mobile viewing, kakao TV will run 24 episodes within 20 minutes. Recently, kakao TV has dropped teasers for the series featuring its lead pairing.
It highlights singer and now actor Kim Yo Han portraying the role of perfect campus crush, Cha Heon. Suiting up as Shin Sol-i is actress So Ju Yeon (Dr. Romantic 2). In the teaser photos, the two are shown in a dreamy background, wearing school uniforms, gazing at each other and holding hands.
Written on the poster is the phrase “I always have you in my memories of those days” signaling a heartening youth romantic story to anticipate for.
A Love So Beautiful will start its first broadcast on December 28 via kakao TV.
