Wavve is bringing back the beloved classic My Lovely Sam Soon with a 2024 director’s cut, marking the first release in its “New Classic” project.
On September 6th, Wavve will unveil Director’s Cut My Lovely Sam Soon 2024, a refreshed version of the iconic 2005 romantic comedy that redefined beauty standards and empowered women to take charge of their lives and love. The series, fondly remembered as the “starting point of K-rom-coms,” gained massive popularity for its bold portrayal of a strong, independent female lead, her refreshingly honest dialogue, and a realistic, open-ended conclusion.
The newly released poster invites fans to revisit the charm of patissier Kim Sam Soon (Kim Sun Ah) with a “reopen” invitation. The poster also teases the 2024 version with a celebratory cake and the theme, “Shall we pretend to date… ‘one more time’?” Meanwhile, the teaser showcases an upgraded dynamic between Kim Sam Soon and Hyun Jin Heon (Hyun Bin), with their trademark sweet-and-sour banter making a comeback. Fans can look forward to a fresh take on the classic romance, featuring elements like the confident female lead, the “bad boy” love interest, and a contract-based relationship that have since become staples in the rom-com genre.
The 2024 version of My Lovely Sam Soon has been restructured into an 8-episode series, each lasting 60 minutes, to fit current viewing trends. Wavve has enhanced the narrative arcs of the main characters while incorporating cliffhanger endings to keep viewers hooked. Additionally, the series has been upgraded with improved picture and sound quality, and subtitles to meet the demands of modern streaming audiences.
Wavve’s “New Classic Project” is an ambitious initiative that includes remastering iconic Korean dramas by upscaling the visuals to 4K, making these beloved shows more vivid than ever before. The “New Classic Project Part 1” lineup includes Princess Hours (aka Goong), Full House, and Coffee Prince.
Wavve’s My Lovely Sam Soon 2024 is set to premiere on September 6th, with all eight episodes available for streaming.
