In 1988, five childhood friends who all reside in Seoul's Ssangmun-dong district with their families rely on one another to get through their difficult adolescence and forge a future together.[1][2]
Cast and characters
Sung family
- Sung Dong-il as Sung Dong-il
- A fraud and security specialist at a bank, Dong-il fell into debt after lending money to a friend who never paid it back. He struggles to provide for his family as he wants to while paying off the debt, but does his best to give everything he can to his children. He and his wife, Il-hwa, argue a lot but love each other very deeply.
- Lee Il-hwa as Lee Il-hwa
- Il-hwa is a kind woman who spends much of her time with the other moms and caring for her family. She worries about her children and husband and shows much of her care by cooking massive quantities of food to share with her family and the neighbourhood.
- Ryu Hye-young as Sung Bo-ra
- Bo-ra is a tough-as-nails college student who wants to become a lawyer. She attended the Teacher's College of Seoul National University under the Department of Mathematics Education to save tuition fee although her test scores qualify her for the Department of Law. She participated in the June Democratic Struggle against the military regime under Chun Doo-hwan. While outwardly stoic, she has a warm heart and shows compassion to those who need it most. Where her younger sister Deok-sun struggles academically but excels in interpersonal relationships, Bo-ra is a stellar student who stumbles in social and emotional situations.
- Lee Hye-ri as Sung Deok-sun / Sung Soo-yeon[3][4]
- The middle child of her family, she is infamously ranked 999th in school and is the only girl in their group of five neighbourhood friends. Though not academically gifted, Deok-sun has a bright and compassionate personality. She cares deeply for her friends and classmates but feels lost without a "dream" to pursue. Deok-sun moves through the stages of her youth alongside her male friends, and the mystery of which of them she eventually marries is a continual point of tension for viewers throughout the series. She later becomes a flight attendant.
- Choi Sung-won as Sung No-eul
- Dong-il's only son and assistant in his schemes, No-eul is a kindhearted young teen with a poetic, dreamer's mind. He is also a good singer.
Kim family

- Sung-kyun is a kind and humorous man who runs an electronics store and formerly worked at a Chinese restaurant as a delivery man.

- Ra Mi-ran as Ra Mi-ran
- A strong lady with a tough past, Mi-ran is the indisputable empress of the Kim household. Worried and annoyed about his eldest son Jung-bong's constant academic failures punctuated by obsessions.

- Ahn Jae-hong as Kim Jung-bong
- A student who failed his college entrance exam six times, Jung-bong would rather collect posters and stamps, solve Rubik's cubes and play arcade games rather than studying and thinking about his future.

He happily cares for the neighbourhood kids including Jin-joo, Sun-woo's little sister. He is a surprisingly poetic and romantic. He later successfully attended the Department of Law of Sungkyungwan University.
- Ryu Jun-yeol as Kim Jung-hwan
- Stoic and sarcastic but with a secretly sweet heart, Jung-hwan is called Jung-pal by his friends. Jung-hwan is smart and athletic, often taking on extra responsibility to fulfill the dreams of his older brother Jung-bong, who has a chronic heart condition. While Jung-hwan doesn't often share his emotions with others, he feels things deeply and uses his sarcasm and attitude as a shield. He develops feelings for Deok-sun early but is reluctant to admit his crush, even as the right timing slips away. He joined the Korea Air Force Academy and became a pilot for the Korean Air Force.
Kim-Sung family
- Kim Sun-young as Kim Sun-young

- A class president, caring brother, and dependable son to his widowed mother, Sun-woo is an ideal young man. He is devoted to his friends and dotes on his younger sister, Jin-joo.

He later enters the Medical College of Yonsei University.

- Park Bo-gum as Choi Taek[5]
- An internationally renowned genius baduk player, Taek is the quietest of his neighborhood friends. Taek dominates on the baduk board but struggles with simple everyday tasks. His baduk success has brought money and fame but has left him distant from his age group so he relies on his friends for companionship, grounding, and connection to other teens. Taek is generous to a fault and hesitant to make a fuss, but that hesitancy disappears in competition. However, when he realises that the person he cares for has another admirer, he has to weigh romance against friendship.
Ryu family

- Lee Dong-hwi as Ryu Dong-ryong
- The neighbourhood clown, Dong-ryong loves to sing, dance, and play jokes on his friends. Like Deok-sun, Dong-ryong is not a natural academic, but his thoughtful insight and surprising wisdom serve him and his friends well. As the son of two working parents surrounded by tight-knit families, Dong-ryong sometimes feels neglected by his parents and makes up for their absence by acting out. He is known for his disgusting nature whilst with the group, much to the anger of the others. His nosy nature also means that he ends up knowing many of the neighbourhood's secrets before anyone else.
