First love and husband reunions in Twenty Again
by girlfriday
Muahaha, I love the continuing series of teasers for tvN’s new Friday-Saturday drama Twenty Again, featuring everyone’s reactions to seeing Choi Ji-woo on campus as a college freshman. The latest ones feature First Love Lee Sang-yoon (Liar Game) and Husband Choi Won-young (I Remember You), both university professors whose lives get upended when our heroine ditches her life as an ajumma and packs her bags for school.
The first teaser starts out with Lee Sang-yoon waxing nostalgic about his first love, who left him twenty years ago to marry another man. Then the music takes a dramatic turn as he says, “My first love has reappeared before me.” Choi Ji-woo comically latches onto his car window like a stalker, while he oh-so-casually locks the doors while pretending not to see her. HA. She goes around to every single window trying to get his attention, until she’s finally climbing atop the hood of his car mouthing, “It’s me, Ha No-ra!” He whispers in voiceover: “I don’t like it!”
She’s got the opposite problem in her (ex?)husband Choi Won-young, who nabs her from the hallways to rant: “I don’t know why you are in the entering class of the university where I work, but if you’re crafting some dirty low-down totally irrational scheme, then you’ve picked the wrong wrong wrong person to mess with! I’m not such an easy mark! I’m no pushover!” She lets him get his whole rant out and deflates him with one simple, “Whatever,” and walks off, heh. I love the CG steam coming out of his nose as he stews, and the fact that he’s wearing a cute dweeby bowtie.
I really hope the show is as funny — and more importantly, that the characters are as funny — as the teasers are making them out to be. Because if the ex-husband is that ineffectual (hee) and the first love is trying to run away from her all the time, it’s going to make for some unexpected hilarity on the romantic side of things, even beyond the basic freshman-ajumma hijinks.
Twenty Again follows Oh My Ghostess and premieres August 28.

Odd seeing Choi Won Young in a role that the drama (probably) won't take seriously, after I Remember You. Heh

He really mixes things up though. He has done so many roles from normal to insane, kind to murderous. Reliable performance every time.

Only started seeing him in dramas the last couple years. Don't know where he has been in the past decade while I was watching KDs. Perhaps he was paying his dues in daily dramas??? Or in melos which I normally avoid like the plague. Good to have him on our radar, finally.

I think he started late as an actor, I watched him in Happy Together episode with "I Remember You" cast. Great acting chops, and apparently he's a very good husband too!

Choi Ji Woo is sooooo beautiful indeed.
Wonder why some nice guy hasn't tied her up and brought her home may years ago already!
My Korean goddess forever!
So happy she is now showing her cute and bubbly side.

This is adorable. I am in love with the cast ever since Sangyoon got casted (and then Wonyoung hell yeah double whammy of love) and I liked Jiwoo post-Grandpas over Flowers. Really hoping it delivers~ Definitely going to watch!!

This drama is really funny in its way, I like the comical character of everyone, it's good if LSY seems unhappy to see his first love, because normally in dramaland people easily fall in love again to their first love. I hope the story will teach something worth about marriage, happiness and education/dream/career funnily, because in reality, I think it's need big and brave heart to change your life, get education and achieve your dream. ^_^
Tomorrow is Lee Sang Yoon's Birthday,
I wish him a very happy birthday, hope this drama make him bigger and shine brighter,...

Choi Won-young has been seen in a variety of roles for like the past year or so.
He's truly versatile and always memorable.
Looking forward to seeing him and the rest of the cast in this!

So Lee Sang Yoon might not be that bad after all.. I can actually watch this. CJW is cute lol and it is so weird seeing Lee Joon Young so... harmless instead of him thinking of killing someone (..or everyone) haha

This is too adorable! Choi Ji-woo is embracing her cute side with such perfection. Can't believe I've always seen her as the melodrama actress when she's capable of this. Yay for Na PD and GOF!
I'm also here for some bromance! I'm sure there will be love triangle at some point but I want to who guys to share their headaches with each other lol. I'll watch the heck out of them scheming and failing against her.

I totally agree with everyone here on how odd it is to see Lee Joonyou-I mean Choi Wonyoung so adorably flustered and comical. The man is an incredibly versatile man and yummy as hell. I seriously envy Choi Jiwoo, who wouldn't want to be stuck between Ha Woojin (he even has the same HAIR) and Secretary Ahn/Lee Joonyoung?

Ahhh this looks cute but yet again First Love strickes again(i find it so deadly now after all this years)and 'em i the only one who minds that everytime they make the husband a bad apple to excuse the heroine for picking the first love/hero etc,they always go this route and i'm a bit fed up with it...Can't they for once show the second guy as a nice dude and why she married him(like they say about love "if u loved the first one u would never choose the second person type scenerio),rant over...nevertless i'll watch it because the cast is great and hope it will be lots of fun

Well I guess I wont feel that sad if that drama follows Oh My Ghostess because it does look awesome. So far, the teasers have been hilarious and cute so yeaaaah !
But seriously, I know Choi Won Young got a family recently but isnt he overworking himself ? I get he has to put food on the table but dayum, he must have dozens of projects per year lol. Well, he is that good so everyone is happy :)
I cant wait for Ha Woo Jin. I mean, Lee Sang Yoon XD. He looks so damn good. Why do all first loves look super fine ? Life would be easier if they were downright ugly --'
TvN is really the content leader ! Their dramas all have fresh and original ideas. It is awesome how a cable network can beat that easily public broadcasts lol.

I am so losing interest in this drama. I do not like any of the teasers and stills. And the subject matter has been over done recently. It is now on the BOTTOM of my anticipated drama. I'd take "I Have a Lover" and "Bubble Gum" many times over this one.

I actually imagine Choi Won Young going in the last still: "MORE work??? what about vacation???" I wouldnt be surprised if he gets a new offer while still filming this drama.
