oh to experience the warmth and those sparkling times of this drama

My youth is for those who feel things so deeply, for those who are simply consumed by nostalgia and yearns it.

It is a slow, gentle, and ever so tender drama. To truly understand the drama, you have to savor every scenes because it holds meaning. Not your typical drama to feed you what you’re always looking for. The story flows naturally, every scenes moves at natural pace and that’s what makes this drama so damn real.

Sunwoo Hae, I don’t think no one could embody him as much as Song Joongki does, tho no offense I hesitated to watch the drama at first because of him but I just gotta credit the man. He felt so natural! and his chemistry to our gurl, Chun Woo-Hee, is just top tier! They played the roles so maturely and I love love how they portrayed their characters well. And to our 2nd-leads, ugh just chef’s kiss. The way the drama unfolds their story was just so good. And the side characters! Just oh to be surrounded by them and feel so loved! It was really so warm.

I gotta be biased toward this drama because of cinematography, and with flowers and novels too? Man, it got me big time. And the osts too! They perfected every scenes, just gotta cry upon hearing Judah Earl’s music.

The only lapse, I must say, that this drama bears is that it ends. Haha, joking aside, it was really good for the first half, tho it kinda lean a bit cliche toward the end, but that actually made it more interesting, because life itself is so cliche. I must say this drama will hold my heart for longest time, maybe even longer than I’ll realize. You should give it a try, it is a beautifully shot drama that explores the pain and sweetness of first love. It's not for everyone, but if you're in the mood for something heartfelt and quiet, it might just be the comfort watch you need.

Lastly, I want to end this with my fave line pf the drama, “Some moments still feel or perhaps will forever feel like they’re here now. I was happy to greet the things that I might've forgotten momentarily, but didn't disappear.”
