Hello, My Twenties! (2016)

Great great show i wish there were more episodes and more awareness of the show. I dint even know about it only by coincidence. Its a very unique and serious short film about school roomates and issues that most students go thru when put together in a shared environment. Each character was unique and had something special going on about them. Theres not really a main character per se but the little girl had most of the story revolving around her. Shes so cute and gullible but not that innocent. Theres romance, adult content and buckets of tears and laughters. Must see

This goes for both seasons 1 and 2, I would rate it higher if it wasn't for the actress change but I mean it's cool, it was a nice funny show that was literally a slice of life. It made me laugh, feel emotions, I liked the whole feeling if they're a family and bonding just like sisters but also fight like it. I like that everyone has their own stories and there's some suspense between everything. It doesn't even fly by like oh this is rushed, it was the perfect amount of time and character and space. I guess I'm just thrown off by the change which sucks but overall, worth watching. Good laughs and all that jazz.

À regarder

C'est un des premiers drama que j'ai regardé! Je me prend de nostalgie encore à regarder certains épisodes par ci par là :) Ce n'est pas vraiment un drama qui se revoit plusieurs fois sans s'en lassé mais définitivement un incontournable que je pense chacun doit regarder une fois dans sa vie.
Le concept est assez spécial et difficile à comprendre au premier épisode mais une fois lancé, je ne pouvais plus m'arrêter et ce fut un binge watch jusqu'à la fin!! C'est très agréable de voir des female leads aussi fortes que celles que l'ont peu voir dans ce drama. Elles n'ont pas leur langue dans la poche et les scénaristes ne l'ont pas non plus car des sujets très tabous habituellement sont abordés ce qui est fort agréable! Très rafraichissant.
C'est un drama touche à tout qui je pense peut très bien convenir à un habitué des dramas ou un amateurs qui cherche à commencé son aventure dans ce grand monde. Touche à tout aussi dans les styles car le scénarios explore des angles assez inattendus sans que ce ne soit incohérent (je n'en dis pas plus car je ne veut pas spoiler).
Mention spéciale pour la musique que j'ai trouvé incroyable et qui m'a fait découvrir des artistes dont je suis fan aujourd'hui!
En bref, ce n'est pas LE drama celui que je ne voudrais jamais oublié mais il reste dans mes coup de cœur malgré tout.
Je le conseil fortement!!

Sometimes you just have to give drama a second chance, especially ones that have such great reviews. I tried watching this while it's on air several times, but I just couldn't get pass the first 4 eps. When season 2 was out, I decided to give this a second chance, and I love it so much I wonder why I ever disliked it. I am now halfway through season 2 and am low-key anxious that there's no season 3. I love how relaxing the show is, just showing regular day to day life with minimal drama, yet relatable characters. In some ways I can't pint point, it reminds me of My Ajusshi. Though this one is much brighter and cheerful. Perhaps it's the plot focus on mundane life goals on career, love etc. vs. focusing mainly on birth secret, cancer plots.

P.S: starting a new drama while killing time doing your cardio is best for getting over the awkward, sometimes boring introductory, first 2 eps.

One of the dramas that is dear to me. If slice of life is what you`re looking for, this is it. I just love the idea they had for this drama because it really worked. Putting different people with different personalities and different backgrounds in a small shared house created a masterpiece. I like all of the characters too because, there are always bits and pieces from them that you can relate to and learn from. Freeing yourself from a toxic relationship, admitting to yourself you`re the one in the wrong to how one small lie can be very troublesome. And I really loved how they always have this misunderstandings going on, they still care and try to find ways to compromise. And how all of them have dark past that came to light but had closures. And it had a cliffhanger ending so season 2 is promising.

i liked this show because the story line put them in situation where they had to grow as a person and adapt to their surroundings in a semi - realistic way. This made an abundance of character growth and decent plot development. the acting is also pretty solid , in big emotional scenes the actors make you feel the emotions that their trying to reflect and it can get pretty surprising how much that'll hook you in. i didn't really pay attention to the music for this show but i was never annoyed by it so i think that's a plus and the re watch value is pretty good sometimes i find myself skipping through episodes only watching my favorite parts but then a big event will happen and i end up watching the full episodes. overall i think that if you enjoy character development and high running emotions with some comedy i think it will be worth it for you to check out.

Önce arkadaşın mı kendin mi

Hikayenin hemen içine çekildiğininiz, her karakterin ayrı hikayesi olan bir diziydi. Hikaye o kadar yumuşacıktı ki diğer şeylere o kadar odaklanamadım. Konusuna tam olarak şuydu diyemem ama net olarak önceliğinin kim olması gerektiğini çözmeye çalışan üniversite öğrencilerini izledik. "Önce kendilerini mi önemsemeliler yoksa etraftakilerin düşünceleri mi daha önemli ya da öylece sadece para için mi yaşamalılar?" Bunu çözmeye çalışan bir grup genç kızın etrafında dönüyordu bence. Ah bazen oyunculukların rahatsız ettiği oldu. Çok abartılı oynuyorlardı bazen, tepkiler mimikler biraz fazla kaçıyordu. Çekim açıları da eh işteydi. Böyle hayran bıraktıracak kadar güzel değillerdi. Ama sonrasında ne olacak acaba merakından izlendi. Sonuç olarak:
Üniversite hayatını gitmeden görmek isterseniz, kendini anlamaya çalışan bu öğrencilerin hayatını merak ediyorsanız izleyin derim ~~

It was not what I expected....

I started it expecting it to be a sitcom like WELCOME TO WAIKIKI but it was different from it. It had comedy, suspense, drama and romance. It dealt with heavy and dark topics that women have to deal with like workplace harassment , abusive and manipulative relationships and trauma. At first the 5 protagonists were not very likable but as the story progressed I began to connect with the characters and like them. All the main characters are so well developed and interesting. They all deal with their own struggles in their own ways. The bond and friendship between these girls is so cute. They all support and protect each other like family. All the actresses did such a good job. It is such a good drama to watch with friends. I think it is not as appreciated as it should be.

Unexpected Journey... Raised the bar for future Youth Stories

I REALLY REALLY LOVED IT...
( I will cover some of season 2 as well)
(This spoils how the characters changes that happens in the show)

This is a coming of age story...A female centric drama...A story of 5 roommates and their life
Each one has a different story to tell...They have different personalities and traits...The most important thing I look for in a drama or in any other show/series I am watching is the characters...If I can see the characters as actual human being... People who make mistakes... People who feel like can exist in the same world as I do...And I don't mean by making the characters "relatable"... A character can be relatable but not human...But coming back to the show...why I am saying stuff like this... it's because the decision the characters makes in the show comes backs at them...This drama is one of the most realistic teen romance dramas I have seen...It show how young love is not perfect... Getting into a relationship with a person you hardly know is not good for a long run...How innocent girl who had low self-esteem and lacked confidence is turned into an obsessive bitch is done perfectly...And that's just one character...

Same goes with the side character...Each character has a part to play... Sometimes the main characters are the one in the wrong and we support the side ones...

I have been very serious in this review... It has one of the most funniest scenes I have ever watched in a Kdrama...The scenes where you want to cry is made in a comedy scene...and I hate been shows cut out a serious part just to make you laugh, it ruins the whole experience but it is done so wonderful I can't even describe

This show hasn't been finished it...I mean a lot of things set up are not given a conclusion... Hope season 3 happens... Because the epilogue in the second season broke me...

It was a breath of fresh air...Hope you love this drama as much as I do... Thank You

Wish it was longer

Im fully aware that there's a second season, so my headline doesn't make a lot of sense, but i don't think I'll be able to watch s2 after the cast changes, it's too distracting to me.
With that being said, lets get into the review:
The first episode, at the beginning at least, didn't excite me as, I felt like the girls all represented a female stereotype and were kind of annoying. Having watched the show now, I realize that the choice of stereotypical characters was intentional because every girl's personality gets expanded and the stereotypes the represent are there to be deconstructed for the most part.
All the girls feel very human, they're not perfect by any chance but they seem like real people that form a genuine friendship that, ngl became my favorite part of the show.
The drama is very easy to watch, slice of life tends to get called boring by many( sometimes im one of them) but in this case its done really well and never makes me skip any scenes.
My biggest 'complain' if you can call it that, is the stort runtime of the show that left me with a gap in my heart and rushed the progress of some storylines. The romantic arcs are the ones that suffered the most from this so they all kind of fell flat in my opinion, but it's nothing too jarring considering they don't take up a big amount of screentime. Some more important storylines also got a faster resolution than expected due to the short time, like Yina's arc but i won't spoil it for you.
The mystery aspect of the show is not quite what i expected and im glad for that, because I truly don't think a Sherlock holmes-esque mystery would be a suitable fit for this drama. I liked how they embroidered the mystery aspect into 2 of the girls' backstories and showed how these experiences shaped them the way they did. I'm also glad that the ghost thing is not that apparent and that it represents each girl's own struggles and things that ' haunt ' them.

The ost was quite memorable and catchy, which i find very unusual considering the songs rarely stick with me. I'll admit its a little out of place sometimes though, like we have a gut wrenching scene one moment and then the happy go lucky song lmao

Anyways totally recommend it, its a very simple and sweet watch!!!

Age of Youth had been recommended to me by a friend multiple times, but I had kept putting it off for one big reason: I knew that the story didn't focus on romance, and I was ALWAYS in the mood to watch romance.

And when I finally got around to watching it, that was still a problem, but not in the way I'd expected. There was enough romance—the problem was that it wasn't for the characters I wanted, Yi-Na and Ji-Won.

Those two were my favorites, followed by Jin-Myung, and then Ye-Eun and Eun-Jae. Let me go over my thoughts on each character separately.

Yi-Na: I loved her. Her character was the perfect blend of tragic backstory, badassery, and self-reflection, and her character development throughout the season was extremely strong. I loved how straightforward she was, yet how subtle she could be in her support for her friends. I so wish she had a romance plotline, especially how we were teased with it near the end.

Ji-Won: I loved her too! Her character had a little less depth than Yi-Na's which is the only reason she's second. Otherwise, her personality would be ranked first for me. She was always so adorable and upbeat, yet surprisingly insightful when it came down to it. It pained me that the character who wanted to find love the most was the one kind of left without it—even though there were some hints for this as well that I'm hoping are expanded on in Season 2.

Jin-Myung: This character really had to grow on me, but when she did, I grew to love her a lot as well. Even though she was a little bit of the cliche, tragic character, I thought she was extremely strong and her character development was great to watch as well, especially when she was connected with Yi-Na. Her romance plotline was nice too, but predictable.

Ye-Eun: I'm sure a lot of people were annoyed with this character, and I was too. She was very whiny and shrill. I will admit though that I really appreciated her plot and development, and she was surprisingly strong and logical about what a healthy relationship should be—which I'm glad wasn't dragged out.

Eun-Jae: Ugh. My least favorite of the five, and the one who got the most screentime and was the MAIN MAIN character. She was frustrating to watch at first because she never spoke up—understandable. But as the series went on, something about Eun-Jae just never sat right with me. I kept feeling secondhand embarrassment, the acting was a little awkward, and her entire personality was just the least interesting. Because of her, I couldn't really enjoy her romance plotline, which sucked because the love interest was the kind of teasing, playful male that I'd been looking for in kdramas. One scene that I did enjoy, though, is the one where she finally calls out her mom—another character that annoyed me to death. I know that the actress for Eun-Jae is different in Season 2...I'm partly thankful, partly worried that it'll throw me off.

Overall, it was still really refreshing to watch a drama with strong sismance, which kdrama doesn't usually have a lot of.
