14 Quotable Quotes From Kdrama Record Of Youth
Record of Youth (2020) is a stylish and emotionally resonant Korean drama that dives into the glitzy but cutthroat world of fashion and entertainment — where dreams are everything, but reality bites hard.
At the heart of the story is Sa Hye-jun (Park Bo-gum), a warm-hearted model who dreams of becoming an actor, but finds doors closing on him despite his talent. Enter Ahn Jung-ha (Park So-dam), a fiercely independent makeup artist trying to carve her own path, hiding her insecurities behind a calm exterior. And then there’s Won Hae-hyo (Byeon Woo-seok), Hye-jun’s best friend and fellow model, who seems to have it all — but lives in the shadow of his family’s influence.
As these three navigate fame, family expectations, and the rawness of unrequited dreams, Record of Youth becomes a poignant tale of ambition, friendship, and finding one’s own identity in a world that constantly tells you who to be.
Gorgeous visuals, heartfelt moments, and a killer soundtrack make this drama a must-watch for anyone chasing a dream — or remembering what it felt like to have one.
