Adolescence Medley (Korean: 사춘기 메들리; RR: Sachungi Medeulli; also known as Puberty Medley) is a 2013 South Korean television miniseries starring Kwak Dong-yeon, Lee Se-young, Kwak Jung-wook, Choi Tae-joon, Park Jung-min, Bae Noo-ri and Yoon Park. It aired as part of the Drama Special Series anthology on KBS2 from July 10 to July 31, 2013 on Sundays at 23:10 for four episodes.[1]

A coming-of-age teen drama about students at a village high school, it was adapted from the webtoon of the same title written by Kwak In-geun, which was published on Naver from November 9, 2011 to February 29, 2012.[2]

Plot

Choi Jung-woo (Kwak Dong-yeon) is the new student at Namil High School. After transferring schools for 7 times because of his father's job, Jung-woo has learned to live like an "invisible man" and is determined not to make friends. But Yang Ah-young (Lee Se-young), the smart and seemingly aloof class president, is actually full of empathy, so she nags him into doing lots of school chores, which annoys Jung-woo. Meanwhile, his shy seatmate Im Deok-won (Kwak Jung-wook) is being bullied by the seniors. At first, Jung-woo doesn't want to get involved, but he ends up yelling and throwing a snack bag at the bullies, that unfortunately lands on someone else walking along the corridor. This happens to be the school legend "Brown Bear," Lee Yeok-ho (Choi Tae-joon). The Brown Bear won't let his slight go easily and challenges Jung-woo to a one-on-one fight.

Another complication occurs when Jung-woo takes revenge on Ah-young by asking her out. To his shock, she says "yes" and everyone at school goes ballistic about this happy news. When Jung-woo learns that his father will be transferred to Seoul in a few days, he volunteers to join the National Singing Contest which everyone avoids, thinking that he'll be in Seoul by the time the show films anyway. But his nightmare continues when Jung-woo's father decides not to transfer to Seoul after all and tells his family that they're staying in Namil. Instead of running away, Jung-woo now has to face his all problems.
