Choi Ji-woo goes back to school for Twenty Again

Could Choi Ji-woo be any cuter? The first teaser for new tvN rom-com Twenty Again is just her adorable reaction to getting her student ID card on her first day back at school, but seriously, if she’s just going to be her bubbly self like this in the whole drama, I’m going to love it. (Also, is that picture on her student ID from Grandpas Overs Flowers? Because, LOL.)

The new coming-of-age story stars Choi Ji-woo as a former dancer who became a wife and mother at 19 and devoted her youth to her family. She finally gets a chance to go back to school later in life and live as if she’s twenty again, rediscovering herself and chasing after her own dreams. Choi Won-young (I Remember You) plays her psychology professor husband — he’s an intellectual snob who looks down on his wife for being uneducated, and asks her for a divorce.

Kim Min-jae (The Producers, Persevere Gu Hae-ra) plays her son, a typical young man who thinks that his mother’s entire life revolves around him. He’ll have the shock of his life when Mom attends his university as a fellow freshman. She’ll even be classmates with his girlfriend Sohn Na-eun (Childless Good Fortune).

Lee Sang-yoon (Liar Game) plays Choi Ji-woo’s first love who’s now a theater/film professor (at the same school, natch). Park Hyo-joo (Secret Door) is the daughter of the university chairman who’s in love with Choi Won-young, and Noh Young-hak (Masked Prosecutor) plays Choi Ji-woo’s dance sunbae.

In the teaser, she introduces herself: “Married at 19. Wife of a professor. Min-soo’s mom.” But then she shows off her new student ID and revises, “Starting today… I’m [entering] class of ’15, Ha No-ra!” She looks so freaking excited to go back to school, and she doesn’t even know yet that Lee Sang-yoon is there waiting for her!

Twenty Again follows Oh My Ghostess on Fridays and Saturdays in August.

So cuuuuuuuuuuute.

If tvN is making Grandpas Over Flowers jokes, can we hope for a Liar Game one too? Maybe Lee Sang Yoon's char starting the class with "Never. Trust. Anyone." lecture?

OMG Almost over?

It's only halfway through....

Granted, I rarely watch a drama while it's currently running, but the time between weeks seem to take forever.

I feel 16 episodes is about right to tell OMG's story. I'll be sad when it ends, but 20 Again seems like a great follow up.

Particularly since there won't be a teenager crushing on the married mom which all the ajummas fantasize about....

Must check this out for Lee Sang Yoon's dimples and Choi Ji Woo's cute alone! LOL. But the premise sounds like it will be a mix of laughs and romance. I'm looking forward to the mother-girlfriend interactions and how the son may get dissed by them! LOL!

you reminded me of the dimples! Choi Ji-Woo must have been born under a lucky-lucky star - dimples from Seojin, dimples from Lee Sang-yoon,

This is beyond cute. Never watched/finished any of her drama but I like her in grandpas and 3MAD a lot. This will be her first drama that I'll start and hopefully finish. I'm liking everything from the cast, to the synopsis to the teaser and here's hoping the end product is just as satisfying.

Anyone know where to find subbed eps of Grandpa Over Flowers with CJW? I've been dying to watch them since the adorable recaps but I can't seem to find them anywhere :( I want to see the CJW-LSJ ship sailing!

This looks really cute, and I really want to see it.

BUT

According to her student ID, she's a month and a half younger than I am. That just made me realize that, OHMYGOD I could have a college-aged kid by now. How did that happen?
