'Reply 1988' 10th anniversary MT site saw the cast all gather, but a two-shot of Ryu Jun-yeol and Hyeri could not be seen in the end.
On the 6th, Channel Sipo-ya posted the caption "'Reply 1988' 10th anniversary, see you soon in winter" and released photos from the MT held in Gangwon Province.
The photos captured the cast members including Ra Mi-ran, Kim Sung-kyun, Ryu Hye-young, Lee Dong-hwi, Lee Min-ji, Park Bo-gum and Hyeri gathered in one place, sharing a meal, laughing and exchanging memories. It was a heartwarming scene that conveyed enduring friendship and teamwork even now, 10 years after the first broadcast in 2015.
But what drew the most attention from fans was Ryu Jun-yeol and Hyeri, who were called the "Reply couple." Both participated in the 10th anniversary project, but they did not appear together on the same screen.
Earlier, Ryu Jun-yeol did not attend the MT due to filming schedule for the Netflix new series "Deuljwi," but it was reported that he later took part in a separate opening shoot. A broadcasting official said, "The focus of this special is the MT site. Mr. Ryu participated in filming separately due to individual schedules, and there were no joint scenes with Ms. Hyeri."
The relationship between the two, who began dating publicly in 2017 and broke up in 2023, still attracts public interest, so whether they would reunite was a major topic in this 10th anniversary special. Ultimately, however, the two commemorated the memories of "Reply" from their respective places.
Meanwhile, 'Reply 1988' recorded a peak viewership rating of 18.8% (Nielsen Korea) and established itself as Korea's representative "national drama." This 10th anniversary special is scheduled to be broadcast on tvN, and the exact programming schedule will be released later.<
