'Reply 1988' 10th anniversary MT on-site photos have been released and are drawing attention.
On the 6th, Channel Sibooya posted several photos along with the caption "Reply 1988 10th anniversary, see you soon in winter." In the released photos, the actors are seated around a table enjoying a meal, creating a warm atmosphere. Among those present were Ra Mi-ran and Kim Sung-kyun, who played a married couple in the drama, as well as Ryu Hye-young, Lee Min-ji, Lee Dong-hwi, Hye-ri, and Park Bo-gum, adding to the delight.
Earlier, OSEN exclusively reported that in August, a group MT commemorating the 10th anniversary of 'Reply 1988' was held under the leadership of Egg Is Coming, the production company to which PD Shin Won-ho belongs. The MT, held at a location in Gangwon Province, was attended by about 15 main cast members, and Hye-ri was also present. However, Ryu Jun-yeol did not attend reportedly due to shooting schedule for the Netflix new work 'Field Rat'.
Later, when a media outlet reported that "Ryu Jun-yeol participated in the 10th anniversary special recording after adjusting his schedule," attention focused on whether he reunited with his former partner Hye-ri on the broadcast. However, OSEN's reporting found that Ryu Jun-yeol only took part in an "individual opening shoot," not the group MT. A broadcasting official said, "The centerpiece of the 10th anniversary content is the MT site, and Ryu Jun-yeol participated separately. There was no joint filming with Hye-ri."
'Reply 1988' aired its first episode in November 2015 and recorded a peak rating of 18.8% (Nielsen Korea, paid households), establishing itself as a national drama. Even after it ended, the cast has steadily maintained their friendships, and to mark the 10th anniversary they are once again summoning memories through an MT and special content.
Meanwhile, Hye-ri and Ryu Jun-yeol, who formed a relationship through 'Reply 1988,' began a public romance in 2017 but broke up in 2023. Although there was attention on the possibility of the two reuniting, confirmation that their work was shot individually left disappointment. The 'Reply 1988' 10th anniversary special is scheduled to air on tvN, with the schedule to be announced later.
