Lee Seung Gyu

School friends Lee Wan (Lee Jong Hyuk) and Shin Ki Tae (Lee Seung Gyu) are inseparable friends who spend every single moment of free time they have together. But Lee Wan has a secret: He has a crush on his best friend, and wants their relationship to turn romantic. When he tells Shin Ki Tae how he feels, his friend recoils in horror. They quarrel and part in acrimony.

Seven years pass and Lee Wan has become an illustrator. When he sees an illustrator job posting for a gaming firm that is trying to create a dating-themed game, he applies and is called in for an interview – eventually landing the job. And it is here that he once again comes face-to-face with Shin Ki Tae, who is a team leader at the same firm. Suddenly, these two former friends must work together, despite the events of seven years ago. But will spending so much time in one another’s company again result in friction – or could it reignite old passions?

This movie was also made into a hit drama series of the same name.

“Our Dating Sim” is a 2023 South Korean movie that was directed by Lim Hyun Hee.

Re:Try First Love Game 

Growing up, Lee Wan (Lee Jong Hyuk) and Shin Gi Tae (Lee Seung Gyu) were best friends, but an unexpected confession from Wan drove Ki Tae away. Seven years later, the two find their paths crossing unexpectedly when Wan interviews for an open position at Ki Tae’s gaming company. Landing the job as an illustrator for an upcoming dating simulator, the former best friends inevitably gravitate toward one another, but this time, things are different. Could love spark between them this second time around? This 2023 South Korean romance series was directed by Lim Hyun Hee.

Re:Try First Love Game

Yoo Min Jae (Shin So Hyun) is a 17-year-old high schooler who has always been an outsider. She longs for popularity and acceptance, but it has always eluded her. When she transfers to a new high school, she is surprised to see on the transfer list a student (Han Ye Ji) with exactly the same name as her. The two girls decide to meet and realize that their fates are opposite: the “other” Yoo Min Jae has always been a popularity “queen,” but due to an unhappy incident with some of her now former classmates, she wants to retreat from the spotlight and lead a much quieter life. The two girls meet and decide to swap identities so they can both start afresh.

The swap initially appears to have gone well. The once-unpopular Yoo Min Jae has been carefully planning her move for some time, carefully studying how to be popular – and successfully infiltrates the “popular group” at school, which includes Shin Yi Joon (Bae Jin Young). He is the most popular student in the whole school, and has a reputation as something of a tough cookie. But as the once-unpopular Yoo Min Jae starts getting to know him, she realizes that he actually has a much more tender personality than she expected. But as the new girls settle into life at their new school, the “other” Yoo Min Jae starts to wonder if her namesake’s motives for the swap are as pure as she suggests…

“User Not Found” is a 2021 South Korean drama series that was produced by Sung Do Kyung.
