If you were to look back on your life, what would you remember most about your high school days and what you and your friends thought was important back then? Sung Shi Won (Jung Eun Ji) and her five friends – Yoon Yoon Jae (Seo In Guk), Mo Yoo Jung (Shin So Yul), Kang Joon Hee (Hoya), Do Hak Chan (Eun Ji Won) and Bang Sung Jae (Lee Shi Un) – were friends in high school in 1997, when the K-pop and celebrity idols were gaining national popularity, and they were swept up in the adoration of their favorite K-pop and other idol stars. To the 18-year-old Shi Won, her entire world revolved around Tony An of H.O.T., and her only aspiration in life was to grow up to become his wife. Her best friend Yoo Jung was her partner in crime, also falling in love with a different idol everyday. Fifteen years later at the age of 33, the six high school friends meet for a mini-reunion, during which two of the friends announce their plans to marry. As they reminisce about the height of their teenage angst, the viewer needs to try to figure out which two friends fell in love during the 15 years since high school, much like the popular American sitcom “How I Met Your Mother.” Which two friends’ passionate idolization K-pop stars turned into a genuine love for each other?

Kim Jung Hwan (Ryu Jun Yeol) only has a one-track mind for soccer, even after his family becomes rich overnight. Sung Sun Woo (Ko Gyung Pyo) is the perfect student, student council president and a caring and dependable son in his family. Ryu Dong Ryong (Lee Dong Hwi) is a geek who knows more about girls and life than the rest of his friends, but his poor academic score prevents him from being able to go to college. Choi Taek (Park Bo Gum) is a genius baduk player who dropped out of school to go professional. As the group of friends get into and out of mischief around the neighborhood, what experiences from these memorable times together will they carry with them into their future lives? “Reply 1988” is a 2015-2016 South Korean drama series directed by Shin Won Ho.

A group of high schoolers goes on a musical adventure as they edge toward the end of their schooldays – forming a band.

But not long after they have begun, a new journey gets underway: romance. And it is a force that threatens to sow the seeds of disharmony in the band.

The band’s lead singer is Yoo Ha Young (Mi Yeon), whose YouTube cover version of a popular song became a viral online hit.

However, she wants to become a singer in her own right – someone who is known for performing original material, rather than covers.

But it looks like the group’s guitarist, Yoo Ha Young’s close friend Lee Ji Hoon (Hwi Young), is developing feelings for her – as is Gong Chan Young (Kim Min Chul), an older keyboard player who also joins the band.

Meanwhile, there are also sparks flying between bassist and Yoo Ha Young’s best friend Lim Seo Eun (Choi Ji Su) and the band’s eclectic drummer and academic no-hoper Shim Tae Young (Marco).

“Replay” is a 2021 South Korean drama series that was directed by Go Hee Seob.
