The final work of late actress Kim Sae Ron will soon meet audiences.
The youth romance film We Were Everyday, starring Kim Sae Ron and Lee Chae Min, has officially confirmed its theatrical release for February 2026. The film is based on a popular webtoon of the same name that amassed over 16 million views on KakaoPage.
We Were Everyday tells the story of first love and emotional confusion between two 17-year-olds standing on the brink of adulthood. The narrative begins when Ho Soo (Lee Chae Min) suddenly confesses his feelings—and kisses—his childhood friend Yeo Wool (Kim Sae Ron) just before they enter high school.
Shocked by the unexpected confession, Yeo Wool reacts angrily, and the long-standing friendship comes to an abrupt end. Fate, however, reunites them on their high school entrance day—when they discover they are in the same school and the same class.
With their friendship already broken, the two teenagers navigate awkward days filled with emotional distance, lingering feelings, and growing confusion. Set at the age when friendship has ended but love is just beginning, the film delicately portrays the vulnerability and turbulence of first romance.
The project draws particular attention as Kim Sae Ron’s final on-screen appearance following her passing earlier this year. It also marks the screen debut and first leading role of Lee Chae Min, who has recently risen as a new romance star through works such as The Tyrant’s Chef.
The film is expected to showcase Kim Sae Ron’s signature bright charm and emotional depth, alongside Lee Chae Min’s fresh and heart-fluttering performance. Supporting cast members include former Cherry Bullet member Choi Yu Ju and Ryu Eui Hyun, known for attracting Gen Z audiences through dramas like A-Teen.
The newly released teaser poster depicts Ho Soo and Yeo Wool standing together under a single umbrella as rain gently falls—capturing the tender, fleeting emotions of youth. The image of Kim Sae Ron smiling once more has already stirred deep emotion among fans.
As audiences prepare to say goodbye through We Were Everyday, the film is expected to stand as a poignant farewell—preserving Kim Sae Ron’s youthful presence and talent on screen one final time.
