Reply 1994




It makes us smile and look back on our own youths with the same sense of longing and nostalgia

The whole cast really breathed life into their characters and made them so believable and lovable! I’m treasuring the warm fuzzies from the show

So heart-warming! Loved all the meta and cross-overs!!

Plot
Set in 1994, six university students from various provincial areas of South Korea (Jeolla Province, Chungcheong Province, and Gyeongsang Province) live together at a boarding house in Sinchon, Seoul, which is run by a couple with a daughter named Na-jung.

Like its predecessor, Reply 1997, it follows a non-linear story telling where it shifts between the past in 1994 and the present in 2013, making the viewers guess who will become Na-jung's husband among the male characters.

The series follows the pop culture events that happened between 1994 and the years that follow, including the emergence of seminal K-pop group Seo Taiji and Boys and the Korean Basketball League
