Rakuten Viki to Exclusively Stream K-Drama My Youth

Rakuten Viki will exclusively stream the popular K-drama My Youth in the U.S., Latin America and Europe in September.

The series stars Song Joong-ki (Reborn Rich, Descendants of the Sun) and Chun Woo-hee (The Wailing) and is directed by Lee Sang-yeop (Yumi’s Cells).

My Youth tells the story of Sun Woo-hae (Song Joong-ki) and his first love Sung Je-yeon (Chun Woo Hee), who reconnect after a decade apart. Sun Woo-hae finds comfort and satisfaction in his work as a novelist and florist. Sung Je-yeon (Chun Woo-hee) is driven by her desire to achieve the highest echelon of career success and works as a team leader for a company called Feel Entertainment. Their reunion forces them to confront their past and their present selves as they navigate their own personal and professional struggles.

“My Youth features incredible storytelling, as well as wonderful talent both behind and in front of the camera,” said Jaehee Hong, senior VP of content at Rakuten Viki. “The series makes an excellent addition to our line-up of rich K-content meant to appeal both to fans of K-drama as well as anyone looking to immerse themselves in a riveting drama.”

My Youth was produced by SLL and High-Zium Studio.
