The entertainment world is buzzing with excitement as the upcoming drama Boyhood unveiled its main cast. On August 17, Coupang Play announced the leading actors set to bring this nostalgic tale to life. Set in the 1980s, this drama will take audiences back to Buyeo Agricultural High School, a setting rife with teenage angst, power struggles, and unexpected alliances.
Leading the cast is Siwan, who will portray Byung Tae, a solitary high school student. Initially, Byung Tae’s sole aim is to steer clear of bullies. However, as the story unfolds, he finds himself rising to a position of unexpected power. Siwan‘s performance promises to capture the complex journey of a young man navigating the treacherous waters of high school politics.

Joining Siwan is the talented Lee Sun Bin. She will fill the shoes of Park Ji Young, aka “Buyeon’s black spider.” People watch her character closely due to the intrigue and mystery surrounding her. Next, Lee Si Woo will take on the role of ‘Asan’s white tiger’ Jung Kyung Tae. His character will play a pivotal role in the unfolding drama, adding layers of depth to the narrative.
Last but certainly not least, IZ*ONE‘s Kang Hye Won has been cast as queen bee Kang Sun Hwa. Her inclusion in the cast has generated significant buzz, especially among the project group’s fans. Given her strong stage presence, it will be intriguing to see how she transitions to the small screen.
