A Colher Dourada (2022)

Some things in life can't be bought

PLOT - I love the plot. A boy that gets his hands on a magical spoon that allows him to switch lives? That’s not gonna go wrong at all. This is going the way I pictured and yet not at the same time. The first ep will def hook you as it did for me and is great to binge.

CHARACTERS - Sungjae surprised me in this. This is my second drama with him(first was Mystic Pop Up Bar). He’s def one of the better idol actors I’ve seen and although isn't perfect he really suits this role. Juhee is nice but doesn’t really stand out as she seems too one-dimensional. Yeo Jin is very intriguing and conjures up more questions about her character as the show continues. Not really sure how to feel about her motivations but I won’t get into that cause I don’t wanna spoil. Taeyong is ok, but his attitude between all the switching is interesting. Taeyong’s father is someone who doesn’t care for things like love and instead finds fulfillment in the things that money brings him.

CONCLUSION - I think the moral of the story is simple and that is money isn’t everything. The protagonist’s dilemma is that he can live a better life with money but he realizes rather quickly the new problems that pursue in his newfound wealth. I do believe he loves his family, but his love of money begins to overcome him and it may end up costing him something he can’t buy back. Each time he chooses to trade lives with Taeyong, that is more time spent away from his family and the one person who loves him despite his situation--Juhee. Although money is important and can change one’s life, it would be a disservice to tell this type of story without exploring the downsides with wealth. If you're poor, you can be happy, but all you'll do is survive and nothing more. Only money for food and possibly shelter — no real luxuries.
You might not be happy if you are wealthy but you could travel far, make friends in high places, and be able to afford things that the average person can only dream of. However people around you will only think about you because of what you have, your trust in others may not be great, and you may even lose interest in spending money altogether(which is what Taeyong did). I’m not saying that being poor is necessarily “better” as every possible path in life has its pros and cons. But the warm unconditional love of family is a luxury that some people desperately need but don’t have. If you have everything but love the things you have hold no real value. Real love is a currency that can’t be exchanged.

I waited until this drama finished airing before I started watching it -- best decision of my life. I can't imagine waiting a week to watch each new episode. Anyone who watched this while it was airing has my respect - you are a stronger breed than I am lol.

This drama is pure perfection in terms of its story, characters, pacing, twists, acting, and music. If you haven't watched it yet, do yourself a favor and avoid spoilers. There are so many twists in this story that I was constantly surprised and amazed. I loved every minute of it. Check out the synopsis and trailer to see if this is the type of story you'd be interested in, and go into this with as blank a slate as possible.

The ending tied everything up beautifully, considering the number of characters and their significance to the story. I'm extremely happy with it. It's one of those endings that leaves you feeling completely satisfied and couldn't be happier.

Body Swaping Inferno

Golden Spoon is one of those dramas that makes my blood boil. The firsts episodes seem intriguing and the premisse had potencial in the hands of a good writter, body swaping within the contex of social mobility.
But, it all came downhill very quickly. I'm gone be generic from this point to avoid controversy. First the acting. I can take one or two fresh face "acting" idols if the story is good enough, but so many at the same time and staring at each other with that blank expressions, like a herd of deer caught in headlights, is a big red flag for me. Even the senior cast, with some very respectable actors and actress, went in overdrive mode and complete "soapy" overacting.
The other red flag for me is the story development wich went full beserk trying to artificially provoke cliffhangers with absurd plot twists. I only remember at some point of the show i didn't even knew anymore who is in what body and didn'teven care, so i dropped it to spare the life of my fast foward button.

Insano

A história é original, com muito potencial, interessante e viciante. Porém tem uns furos, algumas coisas desnecessárias e tu passa muita raiva assistindo. Metade dos personagens não prestam e a outra metade é chata haha. Meus personagens favoritos foram o Munki e a Yujin. Demorei pra terminar de assistir, não porque era chato, mas porque era um tanto irritante. Finalizei o drama rindo horrores com o final que deram, até que gostei de como acabou algumas coisas. O melhor foi a reviravolta no finalzinho, isso foi empolgante:
Quando a Young Shin falou pro "Hwang Hyun Do" que o Juntae que ele o incitou a se matar é seu próprio filho. eu fiquei OMG :O
E o Seungchun que viveu por conta do outro cara que teve um minuto de tela, um minuto de burrice, o cara morreu no lugar dele eu ri muito KKKKKKK
Amei ver a atuação do Sungjae nesse drama!

Later half was slow

I remember watching the beginning of this drama and being really invested, the story was great and the twists and turns made you want to see more. However by the time it reached the middle it slowed down and watching this series became tedious. I was able to hold on until the 14th episode and then stopped caring about it and just wanted to know the ending. So I searched up the plot of episode 15 and watched episode 16 while skipping the unimportant parts so I can finally know the ending. It wasn't enjoyable or satisfying to watch the ending, I just wanted the plot ending points. I was curious about the ending and didn't care about the usual emotions that endings provoked from me; didn't care about the fond nostalgia and satisfaction that a good ending should have. Most shows (no matter what their reviews have been) has been able to evoke those feelings in me, but not this one. Do what you will with that info. I say watch half the show, to immerse and get the feelings and then just search up the plot for the rest of the half.

I really enjoyed this show

There is no denying the importance of money in today's society. This show allows us to imagine what life would have been had we had a chance to be born in money. It also questions us on how far are we willing to go to get this money. Are we willing to sacrifice love, family and our conscience in pursuit of it?

The show does not simply take the moral high ground and deem money as evil. Rather it argues well on both sides. We can't live without money but we also cannot live without family, love and your conscience.

Its a creative story with a good theme. I really enjoyed it. Thank you to everyone who made it possible.

Is The Golden spoon really golden?

This review will be short and precise, I think I does not have to put any sort of summary or something in it because you will find out about the story when you will watch it............

This story revolves around a golden spoon which gives us chance to swap our parents and make our life better............. now this is just the main line of the story but believe me its much more than that it represents hunger for money, pride and power.

I am still confused that whether this Golden spoon is bane or boon. Does it give you more or snatch it from you even more.

The romance plot is I think little messed up I am not gonna reveal who ended with whom. Find out yourself it will be much better and full of swings and turns.

Now the most Important Question??
Should YOU WATCH THIS DRAMA? IS THIS DRAMA WORTH GIVING YOUR TIME?
I guess yes, or kinda of if you are in fantasy stuff then straight go to the drama and start watching no more huff and puff.
But if not hen I will still recc. you to watch this drama because it's a good one keeps you entertain with their different story again this is a Webtoon based drama so it has a good plot no worries for that actors has also did remarkable job...

Try IT you will be amazed by a world of a golden spoon

Does Golden Spoon become the first Korean Drama to have two Male First Leads outside of BL dramas?

In Korean Dramas specifically and writing in general, the First Male Lead is the male protagonist around whom the storyline pivots. Therefore, the Male First Lead never becomes the Male Second Lead. In addition, if you pluck out this character from the storyline you have no story. Outside of BL Korean Dramas, you get one Male First Lead usually.

(No Spoilers)

The storyline for Golden Spoon is exceptional and unusual.

Golden Spoon is the story of two teen young men, one super rich and one very poor, who go to the same high school. The poor teen desperately wants to be rich, to control his life. As the story evolves, a Golden Spoon grants his wish to switch parents. In a reality-bend, he abandons his parents in his reality to become the son of the riches Chaebol. In this switch, the (unaware) natural son of the riches chaebol inherits the parents of the economically poor young student. Each boy keeps his personality identity and both are their original self, but they just live in a different reality in this switch. Reality is bent. As you can see, because of this unique storyline, neither teen can be plucked out of this story. (We are not talking about changing out an actor).

“Male First Lead” Confusion

In Golden Spoon, both boys fall for the same girl. She likes only one of the boys, but in this reality-bend, at any given time, both of our teen boys are this boy which she likes. This reality-bend in Golden Spoon leads to a Korean Drama conundrum. The First Male Lead of a story is always the protagonist about which the drama story is written. Because this story is equally about the two boys living in each others’ reality-bend, for me this makes Golden Spoon the first Korean Drama which I have seen that has two Male First Leads or Double Male First Leads and no Second Male Lead.

Fan Alert: The ending is mind-blowing.

Take-Away from the Story

Golden Spoon addresses whether all that is golden is really ideal? Should value be attached to the integrity of your soul? Is money really what makes you happy? Golden Spoon has many aspects of the Korean drama Reborn Rich. It handles the material in unique ways and may be a fresh look at an old theme, “Is the grass greener on the other side?”

Note: Golden Spoon is not a body-swap Korean Drama. Both boys are themselves, but the one with the Golden Spoon retains the knowledge of their former self and their relationships in the other bended reality. Although not knowing the life the other boy lived, each are retrofitted into that life or reality-bend. This makes for a unique prospective view on both of their lives.

Painfully beautiful story

Recently finished watching this drama and I have got so many different feelings about it, but I’d easily say this is the first one that has made me feel such an incredible amount of emotions throughout one show. It’s definitely a roller coaster and it has so many powerful lines and impactful lessons about life and people.

The only thing I’d have wished for is what could have been in the end. Although I’d like to say the ending was bittersweet, I just can’t help but feel extremely sad for sungcheon, as much as some of his actions made me mad throughout the show I couldn’t resist feeling bad for him - I feel like he truly did love his family and as greedy as he was, i truly wish he would’ve at least witnessed seeing his family happy in the end - one of the main reasons he started all this. I have so much love for sungjae as an actor and as a singer and may have been more attached to his character because of this, so my feelings on this part of the ending aside, I’d still give it a 10/10;

The drama beautifully portrayed a poetic message about life — that everything comes with a price, yet money is not everything. (the enjoyment of a gorgeous, golden sunset is however free, of course… ☺️)

Freaking good plot with actors !!!

I first started this Rama because of curiosity and obviously main lead and the father character cause they were in same drama pop up mystic bar.
I was also happy that the father here is more like evil personality type of character even sungcheon too ...the story was good at start but slow in middle but I also love that last 4 episode where good I love twist they showed in the drama.
one thing is that they did not showed how they switched bodies like taeyong in sungcheon ... sungcheon in taeyong...if they showed it like that it would be better ...i guess they tried not to confuse audience .
"Poverty isn't contagious but Money is "
That line was so good. I was doubtful that time like how did they young's father uses his words so greatly /gracefully.
There really love to cut off character s to build the story I know I knew that someone was going to die but did not expect to ______ father to die.
I realised that even tho sungcheon used his Golden spoon 2 times but Taeyong never used even once. It was good taeyong he got lovely parents family which he deserved. But not his love of life ..
"Everyone has to pay the price"
Woahhh all 3 price were freaking good...like bro i know it was wrong with Yeojin but still everything she did was enough to her her atleast kidnapped her child i am sure he wouldn't kill the child .
I don't really understand what Nara's father doing in house...A as*hole father who tortured his daughter working in her house that doesn't make sense why would you hand him child bro please.
Sungcheon price was also good as he didn't die but atleast forgot everything.
Ahhhhh the cameo .i thought he was just for 5 sec...but played important part in story loved it....^⁠_⁠^
Honestly i had expections at first then no expectations in middle but story ended on good note. 10/10 for me
