This is referenced in the title of Chapter 17 of Jin Yong's Sword Stained with Royal Blood, 青衿心上意 彩笔画中人. The Ninth Princess, returned to the palace after having met male lead Yuan Chengzhi out in the world, recites the entire poem to herself while completing a portrait of him.
On a completely unrelated note, the first line (青青子衿、悠悠我心) also turns up in Cao Cao's poem 短歌行 (Short Song Style). Baike informs me that this a reference to his search for military/political/scholarly talent, which possibly calls back to 子衿 being a reference to scholar's robes.
