An offer has been made to actors Park Bo-gum (Boyfriend, Moonlight Drawn By Clouds) and Park So-dam (Parasite, Cinderella and the Four Knights) to star in a new drama for tvN called Youth Records. Reports say both parties are currently reviewing and considering the roles.
There’s not much known about the story at the moment, except that it is a coming-of-age story set against the backdrop of the modeling industry. If the actors accept, this would be Park So-dam’s first drama since 2016 as she’s been focusing predominantly on films for the last few years. Park Bo-gum’s last drama, Boyfriend concluded earlier this year in January.
I’m intrigued by the premise. One of my first obsession dramas was SBS’s Model in the late 1990s with Kim Nam-joo as the lead and So Ji-sub in a small supporting role as her younger brother. And I remember being fascinated by the story and all the inner workings of that world (although, maybe I was just young and impressionable?). Either way, I love both Park Bo-gum and Park So-dam and it would be awesome to see them in a drama together so hopefully they accept!
Written by Ha Myung-hee (Temperature of Love, Doctors) and directed by PD Ahn Gil-ho (Watcher, Memories of Alhambra, Forest of Secrets), tvN’s new drama Youth Records is currently being planned to air in 2020.
