SBS has announced that it will be introducing a new Wednesday drama, titled 'Spring of Youth.'
According to Spotv News on the 11th, the drama, written by Kim Min Cheol and directed by Kim Sung Yong, will be part of the network's weekly lineup.
'Spring of Youth' is a coming-of-age story centered around Sa Gye, a top star in Korea's most popular K-pop band. After being kicked out of the group, Sa Gye embarks on a journey of self-discovery at a university campus, where he faces the chaotic realities of college life. There, he meets Kim Bom, and the two form a band, reigniting his passion for music.
The drama will feature director Kim Sung Yong, who is recognized for his work on 'The Veil' and 'My Dearest.' The main cast includes Ha Yoo Joon, a member of the newly debuted FNC Entertainment band AxMxP, Park Ji Hu, known for her roles in 'All of Us Are Dead' and 'Little Women,' and Lee Seunghyub from N.Flying, who gained popularity with 'Lovely Runner.'
'Spring of Youth' will premiere on May 6th at 10:40 PM, marking the end of the May Golden Week. The first week will feature back-to-back episodes on May 7th, before continuing with a single episode every Wednesday. This marks a bold move for SBS, which has not aired a Wednesday drama since Secret Boutique in 2019. This new weekly drama will bring anticipation regarding its unique airing strategy.
The premiere of 'Spring of Youth' is expected to stir significant interest as SBS takes on the challenge of reviving the Wednesday night slot.
