Storyline:
Things are turned upside down when an anonymous confession is published on Seoyeon University’s student forum. Four students – Ma Joo-ah (Park Hye-su), Cha Min-ho (Jeong Jae-hyun), Seo Ji-min (Roh Jeong-eui), and Park Ha-neul (Bae Hyun-sung) – from different departments come together in search for “M”, the writer of the mysterious confession. They go through university-life, changing friendships, and realistic budding romances in the course of their search.
About Dear.M TV Series:
Dear.M (Korean: 디어엠) is a South Korean television series starring Park Hye-su, Jeong Jae-hyun, Roh Jeong-eui, Bae Hyun-sung, Woo Da-vi and Lee Jin-hyuk. It is the spin-off of the web series Love Playlist. Directed by Park Jin-woo and Seo Joo-wan, and written by Lee Seul, the series follows the university life of four students at Seoyeon University as they search for “M” — the writer of a community article.
In late June 2020, it was reported that Love Playlist would be rebooted under the working title Dear.M: Love Playlist 2021 with new cast members, except for Bae Hyun-sung and Kim Sae-ron.
The series is entirely pre-produced with filming scheduled to be completed in early February for the production team to focus on post-production and music editing.
The airing of the first episode was postponed from its originally scheduled premiere date of February 26, 2021, on KBS2, in light of emerging school time bullying allegations against the lead actress, Park Hye-su. The series was originally part of a restructured ‘Golden Friday’ line-up on the KBS2 channel and was planned to air every Friday at 23:10 (KST).
It was released instead on OTT platforms U-Next in Japan, and on Viki in selected regions from June 29 to July 6, 2022. The next six episodes were released on July 6, 2022.
