My Youth is already setting hearts aflutter ahead of its September 5 premiere, thanks to the release of two swoon-worthy couple posters.
The drama teases a nostalgic first-love reunion, pairing Sunwoo Hae (Song Joong Ki) with Sung Je-yeon (Chun Woo Hee), and Mo Tae-rin (Lee Joo Myung) with Kim Seok-ju (Seo Ji Hoon).
My Youth tells the poignant tale of Sunwoo Hae, a late bloomer who finds unexpected change when his once-bright life grows quiet, and Sung Je-yeon, the woman who disrupts his calm by stirring emotions he thought were long gone. Their reunion is a journey of rediscovery — reclaiming forgotten pieces of themselves and bringing warmth, laughter, and a touch of bittersweet longing.
The creative dream team behind the series — director Lee Sang-yeop (Yumi’s Cells, Familiar Wife) and writer Park Si-hyun (Run On) — promise layered storytelling and emotionally resonant moments.

The newly revealed posters give a glimpse of the romance to come:
In one, Sunwoo Hae and Sung Je-yeon lock eyes and share a tender embrace, their smiles laced with the unspoken history of first loves. The line, “Did you miss me too?” sets the tone for a story brimming with unresolved feelings.
In the other, Mo Tae-rin’s radiant smile meets Kim Seok-ju’s warm gaze. Their tagline, “I guess I waited to fall in love,” hints at a slow-burning romance — one shaped by youthful memories, unspoken truths, and the thrill of rediscovery.
Song Joong Ki transforms into Sunwoo Hae, a former child star turned novelist and florist whose once-glittering youth was cut short. Chun Woo Hee plays Sung Je-yeon, a no-nonsense team leader whose return shakes Hae’s peaceful routine and reignites old sparks.
Lee Joo Myung brings to life Mo Tae-rin, a charismatic actress weighed down by the expectations of perfection, while Seo Ji Hoon’s Kim Seok-ju — her unsuspecting first love and Sunwoo Hae’s new brother — finds himself drawn into her orbit in unexpected ways.
The production team describes My Youth as “a story of people blooming again in places they thought were barren” — a warm, heartfelt romance designed to awaken emotions long left to rust.
My Youth premieres Friday, September 5, at 8:50 PM KST on JTBC, with back-to-back episodes each week. In Korea, viewers can catch replays on Coupang Play. Audiences across Asia, the Middle East, and Africa can tune in via Viu, while fans in the Americas, Europe, Oceania, and India can watch on Rakuten Viki.
