Netflix 'Eunjoong and Sangyeon' Character Stills Released for Ages 10 to 40!

The Netflix series 〈Eunjoong and Sangyeon〉 has released character stills of ‘Eunjoong’ and ‘Sangyeon’, who have constantly brushed against each other's lives from their teens to their 40s. The story of two friends, Eunjoong and Sangyeon, who love, admire, envy, and hate each other throughout their lives, has unveiled character stills capturing their first meeting in their teenage years, their 20s and 30s, and their current 40s.

The keyword showing ‘Eunjoong’ and ‘Sangyeon’ in their teenage years is ‘fresh first meeting’. The released character stills vividly depict the different childhood appearances of ‘Eunjoong’ and ‘Sangyeon’. Their teenage roles are played by Kim Bomin, who recently changed her name to Doyoungseo, and Park Seokyung. ‘Eunjoong’, who maintains good relationships with school friends due to his carefree personality, and ‘Sangyeon’, who struggles to approach friends, become friends despite their contrasting backgrounds—‘Eunjoong’ from a less fortunate family and ‘Sangyeon’ from a wealthy household—filled with admiration, envy, and a strange feeling somewhere in between.

In their 20s, the keyword is ‘accidental first reunion’. ‘Eunjoong’ (Kim Go-eun) and ‘Sangyeon’ (Park Ji-hyun) meet by chance in a university club. The stills of the two, facing each other with bright expressions, spark curiosity about what events await them after becoming adults. ‘Eunjoong’, curious about ‘Sangyeon’s story, which seems different from when they were young, and ‘Sangyeon’, who acts nonchalantly, heighten the intrigue about the changes in their relationship.

The keyword for ‘Eunjoong’ and ‘Sangyeon’ in their 30s is ‘uncomfortable second reunion’. Unlike their bright appearances in their 20s, the stills from their 30s convey a sense of discomfort and awkwardness, suggesting that something unusual has occurred between them. ‘Eunjoong’ is concerned about ‘Sangyeon’, who he meets again, while ‘Sangyeon’ remains inscrutable. As their uncomfortable meetings continue, curiosity grows about what events will unfold when ‘Eunjoong’ and ‘Sangyeon’ meet again after years stained by misunderstandings and what turning points their relationship will face.

After some time, the keyword showing the current ‘Eunjoong’ and ‘Sangyeon’ in their 40s is ‘an incomprehensible request’. The two reunite due to ‘Sangyeon’ returning to ask ‘Eunjoong’ for a favor. ‘Sangyeon’s request to accompany him to Switzerland for assisted dying due to terminal cancer leaves ‘Eunjoong’ feeling uncomfortable and bewildered. As ‘Sangyeon’ earnestly persuades him and ‘Eunjoong’ struggles to understand, curiosity rises about what choices they will make and the story they will tell.

The outstanding performances of Kim Go-eun and Park Ji-hyun, who will delicately and empathetically portray the diverse emotional chronicle exchanged between ‘Eunjoong’ and ‘Sangyeon’ over the years, along with a story that will make everyone reflect on their memories with friends, builds anticipation for 〈Eunjoong and Sangyeon〉, which will be released exclusively on Netflix on September 12 (Friday).
