Set at the fictional Olifantsfontein High boarding school in Johannesburg, Youngins follows a tight-knit group of five Gen‑Z teens as they navigate friendships, family drama, and school life while confronting scandal and secrets. Amo, a determined newcomer from rural KwaZulu‑Natal, arrives at the school seeking a fresh start—only to become embroiled in a growing scandal that tests her resilience. Among the “Olifants Five” are the head girl Buhle, the aspiring scholar Mahlatse, TikTok‑obsessed Tumelo, and popular athlete Khaya—each struggling with identity, pressure, and hidden truths.
Youngins airs on Mzansi Wethu from Wednesdays to Fridays at 19h00.
