Annoying male lead otherwise great
This movie is really cute, it has a lot of good lines, a pretty good message and amazing acting from a very young Park Bo Young.The kid is just adorable but the male lead was a self centered annoying #"#"¤"¤"4 that got on my nerves more than necessary for the story to be good.
But oh what an adorable kid as a lead and kids in the kindergarten, spreading sunshine and smiles on the screen...
Park Bo Young shows great range here, she is a cool, outspoken, funny and delivers everything one could ask for, considering she was only 18 when this was released that is pretty cool, talking about pretty sensitive subjects as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
All in all a decent watch, and do stay for the credits, to see a nice finishing touch... and just so you know: "Single mothers have dreams too"

Sweet, light but kind of a tease
You can almost feel the smell of coffee when you watch this easy to watch easy to binge C-drama with little drama and more fluff. About two people who bring out the best in each other and are would fit in the enciclopedia under the You complete me.... kind of thing yet border o co-dependent... The side couples and side stories are also sweet, but actually have more drama than the main couple however they an asset to the drama instead of an annoyance that many other side couples often are.The drama itself deals with some jealousy and how easy it is to start a rumor, yet hard to take it back as well as the consequences rumors can have on peoples lives. It has a fight back , friendships rock and together we can do anything kind of spirit to it that I liked. I also liked the woodwork and scenery shown in the drama.
However this drama probably holds some kind of record in almost kisses, and kisses being interrupted and not taken up in years of dating making me seriously wonder about these peoples will power to hold back, lack of hormones or just the generall message of kissing is shameful... I ave seen other dramas where they hide the kiss behind a parade and those where they never kiss and found it odd but fine, but this constant teasing was a tad frustrating to watch so I must warn you about that. Also the way they talk about mental illness is a bit iffy too, yet still try to show that we are all different but mental illness is used as a slur so be were
But other than that definitely worth watching.

Sweet and funny
This is a sweet, not much new but perfect to binge drama if you like the whole idol + enemies in to lovers theme that I LOVE!I have been struggling s bit with my bingable self choosing short series or movies lately but this one was very easy to binge,
Most of the characters here are just so sweet, complex and loveable with some really fun friendships and snarky remarks (just my kind of humor). There was not one single character that was made in a way that annoyed me. Though they did bring out some of my inner anger and I do believe that one of the males toxicity was not properly addressed over all this drama let both leas and second leads where complex human being capable of feeling a range of emotions as well as making some bad decisions. The dynamics between the couples and their friends are great, so are the female leads parents. Oh how I love the female leads mom she is just cool, funny and lovable in every single way.
There where however a few invigorating choices towards the end that just felt unnecessary and brought down the total score for this otherwise really fun drama.
So all in all if you like watching dramas about enemies to lovers that deal with the harsh life of being a star this is definitely worth a watch.

Depressing yet brilliant but really, really boring
This movie is a really feel bad, loose hope for society kind of movie. Yet is extremely depressing not only is the subject depressing but also the atmosphere the colors, the plot everything is just so very very sad and will actually make you mad.This movie shows several aspects to breaking down individuals with mental illness through lack of help, lack of understanding and having to deal with some pretty strong prejudges facing society and loved ones. It is truly painful to watch yet has some dark humor that made me laugh between the oooh so depressing scenes. Showing both the the lack of support from institutions, difficulties in finding work and being pointed out as a psycho who is dangerous by more or less everyone around him. Having people afraid of him warning their children to stay away from him. In all this the voice of reason comes from a kid who thinks we should change the surroundings instead of the person, I truly loved that kid.
The entertainment value of this drama is probably worth one star or two at most since it is truly boring 90% of the time, But the dark humor, the message, the acting the lack of sugarcoating and the way this is done is worth 10 stars so I settled on 8. But be were you are in for some truly boring scenens and probably this years (ok 2017s) feel bad movie of the year with a dash of madness... Its a mad world and damn that world will make you mad.

Great female lead and interesting story that is less familiar then one may think
I came for Han Ji Min and stayed for the story.What if... don´t we all have the what if I had stayed... what if I had showed upp in time... If I could just redo this one thing would my life change and would I be happier? What about the people around me would they be happier in a world where I made a different choice?
The story start off like many other stories like them an unhappy marriage. a miserabel life filled with misfortune and lets face it a guy who is a total d**** , to be honest the guy may evolve as the story progresses but he is still a total coward and a d**** hence not very lovable (yet handsome) making me wish the female lead would stay singel . The female lead is however cool, fun and just has this amazing vibe to her that made me wish her all the happiness in the world, no matter who is or is not beside her.
The acting in this drama is great, the side characters are all lovable, and add that little extra spark to the story-line. The pace of the drama is good as well and it truly is a good drama that almost makes you forget the whole back to the future theme to it...
If you have seen go back couple this drama is a bit more mature it has more drama, more smart humor, less awkward humor and is more about the male leads journey and how small choices can change ones life completely. More responsibility less communication problems, and an entirely different plot. I liked both the acting, the plot and the side characters in familiar wife more (but enjoyed both).
Last but not least, I was really surprised by the ending so I guess this may not be a must watch but definitely worth the watch !

Long build up makes a decent story
First of all if you are in this for the romance then walk away there are rare pebbles of romance but not much more in that department.However if you are in it for the power, corruption and intrigues than you are definitely in for a ride. As this is a drama that will have you questioning pretty much everything from politics, to ethics, to idols... Basically showing us that the truth is what the highest bidder wants it to be.
An interesting story, with some pretty decent characters and a few annoying characters... Like the mom I wanted to frame for murder. But a it also has aute daughter and bad ass director
Ps. male lad looks better as a homeless guy, enjoy that look while it lasts.

Educational slightly preachy but has its moments
This little film about the city bus has some interesting moments, but I feel like Im being taught how ride a bus... It also goes a bit to far to make us think and feel stuff, something that kind of annoyed me.But over all it is kind of impressing that hey managed to fill almost 20 minutes of film mostly on a bus, without adding elements of Speed, explosions or Hollywood stars.

Every day is a Winding road filled with Sizzling Love until it burns
Honestly this started off really good, hot and sizzling our leads eyes yelled yearning, spunk and all round entertaining and fun to watch... Though I have seen He Yu in several dramas before this, I am going to say that this role fit him so much better than the others and truly made him shine in a completely new muscular light. As most of the times we get to see him he is wearing a tank top and dripping some kind of liquid to enhance the curves of his upper arm and back muscles.Yes there is the whole I loved you as a non biological sister now I long for you as a lover that is slightly disturbing at times but every single gaze from start to finish pretty much saiys we are not siblings and girl you are not a kid anymore... And yes there is a slight attempt to dress her all innocent but they do also show that she really is not that innocent or naive, but rather a 20 year old that knows what she wants (in a way we rarely see in cs).
The twists, the winding roads of the first 3/4 of the drama are pretty fun to watch but then came the inevitable turn that just took all this heat and chilled it down in to some kind of annoyng mess.
Making it go from an 8,5 or even 9 to a 6 landing it a generous 8.

Our female lead is mostly adorable and fun to watch, however there is a lot to her that uses helping others as a form of self medication instead of actually getting help to deal with her problems. Strong and extremely vulnerable at the same time.
Our male lead has his charming moments but so many rad flaggs so little fabric is shown in this shown. he is nither a pertculary good brother, friend or lover.
Our secound male lead is so sweet most of the drama, a little scaredy cat. A boy who is timid yet strong Talented, broken, kind.... I loved him the first 15 episodes or so bu thten the writers did him wrong oh so wrong that I am goint to pretend that last episode never happened.
The ending, as well as several plot-lines are rushed. The whole he helping people gets slightly repetitive and I do beliee the second hand embarrassment was a bit to much.

Sweet
To be honest I do not really undestand why this is a special, the two episodes would probebly have uped the score of the mother drama or what we sholild call it since it made it a bit more complete and givs us fluff.There is no conflict, nothing ground breaking just a bunch of character growth and people in love, wich is really sweet. So if you do watch the original you should not miss out on these two extra episodes.

Top of the Junk
This drama is highly entertaining but more or less is the definition of guilty pleasure trash, but high it truely is quality trash. Just turn off your brain, and enjoy the leads devour each other. Where lust meets lip gloss and fluffy filters and umbrellas, oh such great umbrellas.Aggressive kisses.... Aggressive everything... Who needs consent when the lead has oiled chest muscles so hot you could fry en egg. Forget about the past... I must have you... you looked at another man I must punish you with kisses... and honestly shirts are so overrated. And while I admit most of these kisses felt wrong to watch they were really, really good to watch too.
While the male lead is styled like a bare chested gangster our female lead looks like a Disney princess, cleaning the house looking like snow white and running around in heels wherever shegoes. That said she may have her secrets but she is pretty cool, smart and has amazing chemestry with our male lead making this one of the hottest webdramas I have seen in a long time.
Second leads that are so obsessed they make our passionate, aggressive red flag male lead look like a little kitten.
Kids are more like accessories and the village people are horrible bit each leads side kicks are worth a spin off.
But to sum it upp:
Logic? Who needs that
Medical accuracy? Nee
Consistency? No need for that either
Explanations? Nope
Real dialog? Not so much
Basically if you can live with all of the above you will be compensated with fireworks, kisses and mind numbing twists... Guilty pleasure entertainment at its best.

Episode 11
I wouldn't call it a spin off but rather another episode with a small added narrative but not really. A sweet episode that shows some kind of growth where one guy starts using words more and the other guy becomes a bit less clueless yet stays insecure.I guess the viewers or the company, or just some one felt that the first 10 episodes where rushed so they needed another episode, and it was an okay episode.

Takidas loss for words and his clueless side kick
Cluless meets silent and mysterious in a lesson in relationships, ships, stans, stalking, obsession admiration and marbles....As a guy who is so clueless it is a miracle they let him live alone is completely mesmerised and obsessed with this guy he met once, changed a few words with and since then got a one track mid to find that guy and just admire him. The guy has been worshiped by many but seems to like the glossy marble look in mr clueless. Honestly I am not really sure but dude sais it best when he sais nothing at all instead uses his lips for kissing thinking mr clueless will finally catch on but clueless will be clueless and is frustratingly clueless from start to finish.
That said mr cold and silent is sweet in a non verbal kind of way, the friends at uni are adorable and there is even a cute bird and kid or two if you like kids.
An okay easy bing but not really anything special

Sweet, awkward and honest
Sweet story, good show of parenting done bad but kind of ruined by the whole mama I love you bits and even the worst parents chan change and secretly mean well... when honestly people should know by now that they don´t and its not your fault so stop giving people false hopes.Kisses where not fully dead fish but almost. There are som good acts of friendship and well portrayed fears of coming out and the creation of an environment that will make you feel coumphurtable enough to come out of that closet.
The leads yell ahhhh just a few ot many times but other than that no one was truly annoying and I appreciated the pprtrayal of hardship, and how deeply famiy can harm you family before they went all forgiving... There are a few very memorable scenes that I really appreciated seeing on screen but I will admit that most of the drama is pretty forgettable even if the boys do have lovely smiles.

Nothing new, but really sweet
This is a movie about remembrance of youth past... and could you face your teen self as the grownup you have become?Taking us back to a 90- early 2000s typical romcom. Nostalgia meets hoodlomes and evil teachers meet teens with a lovely fighting spirit and a sweet, sweet, friendship. Some part actually grabbed my heart and squeezed it a bit to tight other felt a bit unnecessary and dare I say slightly draggy. There is a really cute puppy in this but what I love the most is probably the male leads smile, the female leads fighting spirit and the closing scene.
