"10 million actor" Yoo Ji-tae continues his hot momentum with Lee Young-ae and "reunion."

The production company iWill Media (CEO Jeon Yong-joo) told Star News on the afternoon of the 23rd, "Lee Young-ae and Yoo Ji-tae will appear in the new drama 'Jae's Young-in.'"

As a result, the two actors will reunite for the first time in 25 years since the 2001 melodrama "Spring Day Goes." In particular, Yoo Ji-tae sparked a syndrome with the movie "The Man Who Lives with the King," which drew 14.75 million cumulative audiences, and announced another all-time new movie, adding to expectations.

"Jae's Young-in" depicts a story of two men and women who have similar pains to each other learning to live together again. While the two people left alone in the world fall in love, it will provide an unstoppable sense of immersion with a mystery melodrama that reveals the tangled bad relationship and hidden truth.

First, in the play, Lee Young-ae played the role of Joo Young-in, an art teacher and painter with the sadness of losing her son. He is a character who endures his life by painting murals every dawn when he cannot fall asleep.

Yoo Ji-tae transforms into Shin Jae-yi, the head of an architectural office with pure boyhood and a free spirit. Unlike his bright personality, he lives with a huge gap of dissociative memory loss and is confused and cracked by the gradually revealed truth.

iWill Media said, "The dense emotional line created by the collision of two characters with deep narratives is expected to penetrate the emotions of viewers intensely. In particular, the truth faced by the wounded characters and the acting ensemble of Lee Young-ae and Yoo Ji-tae exploding in the process are expected to raise the immersion level of the work to the highest level. With the meeting of the two actors with proven acting skills, "Jae-yi's Young-in" is ready to give the most intense emotional shock in 2026," he said with confidence.

It was directed by Oh Ki-hwan, the director of the movie "The Essence of Work" (2005). Lee Young-ae had a relationship with Lee Young-ae through the movie "The Gift" (2001). In addition to the drama, writer Cho Eun-jung, who wrote the dramas "Dinner of the Gods" (2012) and "Hotel King" (2014), joined forces.

iWill Media is a production company that has consistently introduced well-made works such as dramas "The Witch's Court" (2017), "The Moon Rising in the Day (2023), and "The Ghost Palace" (2025). Regarding "Jae's Youngin," the production team also said, "We will present a differentiated sensuous mystery melodrama with elaborate emotional lines and unpredictable development."

Jay's Young-in is currently in talks with major broadcasters.
