8 Best Moments From Episodes 1-2 Of “Young Actors’ Retreat”

“Young Actors’ Retreat” is the star-studded new variety show featuring the main cast of hit K-dramas “Itaewon Class,” “Love in the Moonlight,” and “The Sound of Magic.” Seeing this massive star power in one screen at once was almost too much to handle! Here are eight moments from episodes one and two that really had fans excited for the show.

1. Seeing Park Seo Joon continually fail to remember what to say

When all the cast groups gather in one place, it is no time at all before the producers put them to work. They each pull colors out of a box which reveal which team they will be in. This makes most of the actors pretty nervous about being split up from their friends, but it also proves to be hilarious content.

While Park Seo Joon’s teammates are rather competitive and eager to win the game, Park Seo Joon continually seems to ruin it for the team. He constantly forgets what to say when it is his turn to answer, and sometimes just draws a complete blank. It is adorable to see him being put on the spot and in the spotlight despite not wanting it!

2. Watching Ji Chang Wook feel confused and overwhelmed

When the show begins, there is a designated team lead who is basically the leader of the entire cast of the drama. Kim Yoo Jung is given the role of team lead for her “Love in the Moonlight” cast, Park Seo Joon is the team lead for the cast of “Itaewon Class,” and Ji Chang Wook is the team lead for “The Sound of Magic” cast. All of the leaders must find their other cast members by going to various filming sites from their respective K-dramas. Ji Chang Wook seems overwhelmed and lacks the confidence to find his team. He also faces a lot of situations where he’s depleted of energy. It’s adorable to see, and he was rather quick at finding his friends!

When Ji Chang Wook is driving the cast of “The Sound of Music” to the retreat location, he mentions to Choi Sung Eun that Kwon Nara had told him that she would love to meet Choi Sung Eun and that she is a dear fan. Choi Sung Eun is touched at the comment and is seen smiling. Needless to say, their meeting is very sweet, and you can see how nervous and excited Kwon Nara is! She even tells Choi Sung Eun that she’s very pretty. Looking forward to seeing this sis-mance blossom!

4. Ji Chang Wook wondering why Hwang In Yeop told Seo Hyun Jin that he asked for advice

While on the way to the retreat location, Hwang In Yeop ends up taking over the role of driving for Ji Chang Wook. While they are talking, Hwang In Yeop reveals that he has been nervous while filming for his new drama (which was “Why Her” at the time). He mentions that he told his co-star Seo Hyun Jin that he asked Ji Chang Wook for acting advice, particularly for the emotional scenes. Ji Chang Wook is flabbergasted that Hwang In Yeop would tell that to Seo Hyun Jin. Ji Hye Won and Kim Bo Yoon are in the back seat of the car, and they can’t help but laugh. It was adorable seeing them all interact with each other!
