'Spring of Youth' tells the story of 'Sagye', a top star of the leading K-pop band, who is suddenly kicked out of the group. He experiences a chaotic yet real college life for the first time and falls passionately in love with Kim Bom, whom he meets by fate. Together, they form a mysterious band club and restart their musical journey.
Director Kim Sung-yong, known for 'The Veil' and 'My Dearest', brings his delicate directing skills and emotional depth to the series, enhanced by stunning visuals. The drama is a collaboration between the renowned band production company FNC and SBS, promising an extraordinary auditory and visual experience. Ha Yoo-jun, Park Ji-hoo, and Lee Seung-hyub take on the roles of Sagye, Kim Bom, and Seo Tae-yang, respectively, bringing fresh energy and synergy to the screen.
On the 11th, the first 'band poster' featuring Ha Yoo-jun, Park Ji-hoo, Lee Seung-hyub, Kim Sun-min, and Seo Hye-won was unveiled, capturing the freshness of the drama. The five members of the college band club are seen smiling brightly at each other, conveying the hopeful spirit of youth.
Ha Yoo-jun, the vocalist of the rookie band AxMxP set to debut this year, has been cast in a breakthrough role as the lead in 'Spring of Youth'. He is expected to leave a lasting impression on viewers. In the drama, he portrays Sagye, the vocalist and guitarist of the top K-pop band 'The Crown', known for his ultra-positive outlook, proving himself as a gem discovered by 'Spring of Youth.'
Park Ji-hoo plays Kim Bom, adding a fresh and lively charm to her solid acting skills showcased in 'All of Us Are Dead', and 'Concrete Utopia'. She plays a student in the practical music department at Hanjoo University, who once dreamed of the Ivy League but became a professional part-timer after her mother's death six years ago, continuing the legacy of next-generation romantic comedy heroines.
Lee Seung-hyub, a member of the band N.FLYING and an actor, plays Seo Tae-yang, a living legend who became the band club president as a freshman solely based on talent. He exudes both charisma and a sense of longing, raising curiosity about his transformation into a tender male lead.
Additionally, Kim Sun-min, known for 'Undercover High School', plays Gong Jin-goo, the drummer of the college band club, while Seo Hye-won, recognized for her roles in 'Lovely Runner' and 'Love Scout', plays Bae Gyu-ri, Kim Bom's cousin and a die-hard fan of Sagye, adding vitality to the drama.
