A Bookstore Date Worth Swooning Over
Things are getting steamy—yes, emotionally and possibly literally—in JTBC’s Friday night drama My Youth. In newly released stills from the upcoming episode airing June 26, Song Joong Ki and Chun Woo Hee turn the tension dial up with a near-kiss scene that’s already breaking the internet.
From Nervous Glances to Bold Moves
Last week’s episode ended with Song Woo Hae (played by Song Joong Ki) finally cracking a smile in response to Jeong Jae Yeon (Chun Woo Hee)’s heartfelt confession. Fans couldn’t get enough of the sweet, almost awkward energy between the two—and now that spark seems to be turning into a full-on flame.
New photos tease a dreamy bookstore date where the pair grow dangerously close while reading side-by-side. With her eyes fixed on Woo Hae’s lips, Jae Yeon leans in, heightening the heart-fluttering suspense. Cue the K-drama fan meltdown.
But Not All Sunshine and Swoons
In classic K-drama fashion, just as things are heating up, emotional clouds roll in. Another set of photos shows Jae Yeon waiting in the rain, her cheerful expression replaced with visible worry. Later, the two meet again under tense circumstances—Woo Hae gently takes her hand, but instead of locking eyes, she avoids his gaze, her face heavy with sadness. Uh-oh. Trouble in paradise?
What’s Next for the Star-Crossed Pair?
The production team teased that episodes 7 and 8 will usher in “major change” for the romance. “After enjoying a series of sweet dates, the couple will face a crisis. Will they be able to keep their feelings for each other through it all?” they hinted, adding to viewer anticipation.
Catch the next episode of My Youth on JTBC this Friday at 8:50 PM KST. K-Drama fans, get your tissues and popcorn ready—this one’s bound to be a roller coaster.
