About eight months ago, I met two characters who spoke to me. Their relationship was based on trust, friendship and an incredible attraction to each other that went beyond the physical, and I could see how they would evolve just because of that foundation years down the line. This story carries forward the story of Yi Hwan and Min Jay Yi from the Korean TV series "Our Blooming Youth". I had severe withdrawal symptoms once the series ended. I wanted to keep travelling with them. I wanted to know how they developed. I was eager to uncover the transformation from uncertainty ('maybe') to astonishment ('OMG! It's real!') and the ensuing chaos of "WTF do I do now?" What did the path forward look like for Min Jay Yi and Yi Hwan, as they made their personal journey through their one year of separation? I felt this was a story that was needed to be told. It was as important to the growth of their relationship as a couple as it was when they bonded over common goals and promised to always be at each other's side. So here is Yi Hwan and Min Jay Yi's journey from the day of the battle to their life in the Palace. (Disclaimer: The scriptwriters clearly defined the characters, and I borrowed them. The rest of the story is original.) For those who might not want to watch the series but still would like reading, my suggestion is to read through @alathe's incredible recaps in DB here: https://www.dramabeans.com/2023/02/our-blooming-youth-episodes-1-2/ Of course, nothing like actually watching the series, because that's where this was born. It's on Viki and Amazon Prime (in some countries)
