“In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort.” 

Onew plays the role of engineering student Kwon Ho Chang, who has never experienced romance. Being a genius, Kwon Ho Chang exhibits autism-like traits which makes it difficult for him to look others in the eye and also has general struggles interacting with his peers. His character is described as one who was deeply hurt during his school years as he was treated as an outsider.

Wounded hearts often recognize a kindred spirit, and this is the case between Kwon Ho Chang and Ye Eun (Han Seung Yeon). Having experienced dating violence, Ye Eun holds scars of her own. This plot will focus on the healing process as these two spend time together.

Onew shared his excitement for joining the show, saying, “I watched episode one of ‘Age of Youth,’ and before I knew it I was on episode eight. I enjoyed the show so much I didn’t even realize how much time passed. I had known Han Seung Yeon vaguely as a senior of the entertainment industry. I ended up meeting her doing this project. She leads us along well, so we are having a great time filming. [My character] Kwon Ho Chang seems bright on the outside, but on the inside he carries scars from his youth. You can expect to see the process of Kwon Ho Chang and Ye Eun helping each other embrace their wounds.”
