• I Love You/Late Blossom – (16 April 2012 – present)

This drama is based on a popular comic by Kang Pool that has already been turned into a movie, which tells the love story between the elderly, and is SBS Plus’ first feature-length drama that will be produced in-house. Kim Hyung Jun will play the role of a smart public service personnel named Jung Min Chae. Jung Min Chae is naturally smart, and was accepted to Seoul National University (South Korea’s equivalent of Harvard) through his exceptional college entrance exam score. While he is still in school, he develops a game for his school’s game club and becomes a legendary figure within the game industry. Because Min Chae is so smart and talented, he seems like he would be the heir to a big company, but he actually has a tragic family history. While working as a public service personnel at the Community Service Center, Min Chae bickers with his co-worker Kim Yeon Ah (played by Kim Yoon Seo) and forms an adorable love line with her.

The drama version of ‘I Love You’ is highly anticipated as veteran actor, Lee Soon Jae, who made viewers laugh and cry with his role in the beautiful and heart-warming love story between an old couple in the movie, will reprise his role as Kim Man Suk. The drama is scheduled to air on 16th April 2012 onwards.
