Yoo Ha-young is the lead singer, whose YouTube cover of a popular song became a viral hit, though she wants to be known for performing original material rather than covers. Lee Ji-hoon, her childhood friend, is the band's guitarist and bandleader; Im Seo-eun plays bass and is Ha-young's best friend; Shim Tae-young is the drummer. Gong Chan-young, a transfer student who studied classical piano at an art school before moving to a regular public school, joins as the keyboardist at his homeroom teacher's urging, and falls for Ha-young at first sight.[1](https://koreandrama.org/k-dramas/replay-the-moment-when-it-starts-again/) • [5](https://heart-n-seoul.com/2021/07/04/replay/) • [6](https://asiantv4u.com/drama-reviews/korean/replay-the-moment-when-it-starts-again/)\n\nThe title's \"replay\" refers to the narrative method: the drama alternates between the characters' high school days and their lives two years later, replaying the past in the present time. In the past timeline, Ji-hoon, who also loves Ha-young, lies to Chan-young that he and Ha-young are a couple; Chan-young believes him, withdraws, and leaves school in the middle of a band competition. Two years later, Chan-young and Ha-young meet by chance in a keychain shop, the misunderstanding persists, and the triangle resumes until they eventually find their way back to each other.[5](https://heart-n-seoul.com/2021/07/04/replay/) • [6](https://asiantv4u.com/drama-reviews/korean/replay-the-moment-when-it-starts-again/) A secondary pairing develops between Seo-eun and Tae-young.[1](https://koreandrama.org/k-dramas/replay-the-moment-when-it-starts-again/)\n\n## Production and release\n\nThe series was directed by Ko Hee-seop and written by Kang Min-chae, produced by Heart People together with D-Ocean Music, and planned and distributed by Music&NEW, the music subsidiary of the media group NEW.[4](https://www.readonly.wiki/w/%EB%A6%AC%ED%94%8C%EB%A0%88%EC%9D%B4%20%3A%20%EB%8B%A4%EC%8B%9C%20%EC%8B%9C%EC%9E%91%EB%90%98%EB%8A%94%20%EC%88%9C%EA%B0%84) • [9](https://www.xportsnews.com/article/1397023) The full version of all episodes was pre-released for a fee on OTT platforms including wavve, Seezn, and U+mobileTV from January 19, 2021, a week before the free YouTube run began on January 26.[4](https://www.readonly.wiki/w/%EB%A6%AC%ED%94%8C%EB%A0%88%EC%9D%B4%20%3A%20%EB%8B%A4%EC%8B%9C%20%EC%8B%9C%EC%9E%91%EB%90%98%EB%8A%94%20%EC%88%9C%EA%B0%84) • [3](https://www.soompi.com/article/1447914wpp/gi-dles-miyeon-sf9s-hwiyoung-and-kim-min-chul-get-in-a-love-triangle-in-replay-main-trailer) Episodes were uploaded to the LIKE THAT YouTube channel every Tuesday and Friday at 7 p.m. KST.[3](https://www.soompi.com/article/1447914wpp/gi-dles-miyeon-sf9s-hwiyoung-and-kim-min-chul-get-in-a-love-triangle-in-replay-main-trailer)\n\nThe drama served as the acting debut for Miyeon of (G)I-DLE and for Marco, with the remaining leads also early in their acting careers; Hwiyoung is a member of SF9.[6](https://asiantv4u.com/drama-reviews/korean/replay-the-moment-when-it-starts-again/) Special appearances included Kwon Hyuk-soo as Lee In-ho, Lee Do-yeon as the homeroom teacher, Jeong Hyeon-hwan as a workshop owner, and Lee Gyu-ho as Seo-eun's uncle.[6](https://asiantv4u.com/drama-reviews/korean/replay-the-moment-when-it-starts-again/)\n\n## Reception\n\n**Viewership.** The first episode exceeded 1 million views on YouTube, and each episode held roughly 400,000 or more views through the run.
