Kim Ye-rim and Kang Sang-jun present a heart-fluttering romance on the sea.

Ahead of its premiere on the 11th at 11 p.m., the webtoon-based drama 'Azure Spring' (directed by Jung Heon-soo, written by Ha Jin, produced by Oz Arena and Studio Dal) released a series of heart-pounding couple stills featuring Kim Ye-rim and Kang Sang-jun.

The released stills capture various moments of Anna (played by Kim Ye-rim) and Deok-hyun (played by Kang Sang-jun), who confront each other's wounds on a small island at the edge of the sea. From scenes showing them in haenyeo (female diver) and haenam (sea farmer) costumes, to Deok-hyun facing the sea shirtless, and a scene highlighting their heart-fluttering height difference, the images evoke a fresh youthfulness. Additionally, Anna quietly leaning on Deok-hyun's shoulder suggests the two are gradually becoming sources of comfort and sanctuary for one another, adding to the excitement.

According to the production team, the two actors enhanced the quality of the work on the actual filming set with deep trust and warm chemistry toward each other. Kang Sang-jun shared about Kim Ye-rim, saying, "She was an actor who truly filled the set with bright and positive energy. Even during difficult shoots, she never lost her smile, which allowed me to receive a lot of good energy as well."

Kim Ye-rim also recalled her first meeting with Kang Sang-jun, stating, "When we first met during the script reading, he seemed cold, and due to the age and career gap, I was very nervous. However, Actor Kang Sang-jun was so kind and attentive that my nervousness seemed meaningless, and we were able to grow close quickly from the beginning." She further added, "Before the production started, I looked up Kang Sang-jun's previous works and performances. Actually, while filming and watching his acting up close, I learned a great deal and felt he was a truly great partner," adding warmth to the atmosphere.

'Azure Spring' is a youth healing drama about Anna, who fears the future, and Deok-hyun, who is stuck in the past, meeting on a small island at the edge of the sea to heal each other's wounds and grow together. It is a work that combines underwater filming actually conducted in Tongyeong's waters with the actors' sincere performances.

Meanwhile, 'Azure Spring' will premiere on the 11th at 11 p.m. on MBN Plus. At 11:30 p.m. on the same day, the first episode will be released on domestic OTT platforms including Wave and TVING.
