I had seen him in Kill me, heal me and fallen in love with him, and I was ready for a deeper crush. Needless to say that I ended up head over heels in love with him even more.
He steals the show for me: he's cute, he's intense, he's fresh... He can make you blush with a gaze or a smile, or break your heart when he cries.
I read somewhere that there was something about him that reminded of a younger Gong Yoo, and I agree. They're both so natural in front of the camera, so endearing and adorable that you wish their characters were real and you could meet them... or date them.
Even my age range is closer to Uhm Jung Hwa's character, so I understand her completely.
She was the other reason why I watched this. I like her as an actress: she's sexy, she has charisma and she's an icon in the Korean entertainment industry. I prefer her in more badass roles, but OK.
Yang Hee Kyung was fantastic as Uhm Jung Hwa's mom, and I loved Yoon Hyun Min's character, his sassiness, his flowery suits and polka dot shirts. And the cartoonesque sound effects when he poses were funny.
As for the rest, well it's a noona romance and I like noona romances, but the story was above all saved by both main performances. It's not just about the attraction and the age gap, but all the personal things they have to get over with before their romance flourishes. That part was pretty good.
I could have done with a little too much cheesiness, in my opinion, but fortunately that was only in a few episodes.
Summing up, I didn't end up being a huge fan of this, but it was nice watching it.

Campy
This was another show I started watching hoping for lighthearted romantic comedy but found the FL to be unwatchable. I had not seen this actress in anything before and will avoid anything with her in the future. Her acting is terrible, she just annoyed me because she overacted and used too much physical comedy to try to make up for her bad acting skills. Park Seo-Joon cannot save this show for me. I really just want a show that has some lighthearted romantic comedy - easy on the drama, light on the physical campy comedy, pretty people.Was this review helpful to you?
Couldn’t Finish First Eoisode
Such a difference in production quality, pacing and storyline from 8 years ago to today. I wanted to watch this series because it had a young Park Seo-Jun, and it had some tempting clips on youtube. But the first episode had the longest slowest and boring bike ride (pacing!). Sorry, I couldn’t finish it.I was hesitant to start watching K-Dramas at first but they have improved so much in the last decade. I feel the current dramas are better than even US TV. Now I am addicted.
Better use of my time to rewatch Itaewon Class or What’s Wrong with Secretary Woo.

Un noona romance de 10!!!
Maravilloso noona romance, te hace reir, llorar y empatizas con casi todos los personajes! La pareja principal tiene una gran química y me encantan! No sé porqué no lo había visto nunca, quizá porque el cartel de presentación no me atraía mucho pero ahora que me he decidido me la he visto en maratón y la he disfrutado muchísimo!! El ritmo no decae en ningún momento, la historia es light, refrescante y luminosa, el mensaje de empoderamiento de la mujer es maravilloso y los oppas que aparecen son simplemente fantásticos!!! Soy fan de Park Seo-joon, pero Uhm Jung-hwa a la que no había visto en ningún drama me ha impresionado!!!!Was this review helpful to you?
Se você está pensando que esse dorama possa ser clichê, você está enganado. Normalmente estamos esperando aquele dorama calmo, com uns beijos no último episódio, algo bem família coreana, mas aí somos surpreendidos, logo no início já rola uns beijos e bastante pegação, claro que depois continuamos sendo enrolados por muitos episódios, mas a química dos protagonistas é tão boa que você esquece de tudo e fica satisfeita. O que eu mais gostei nesse drama é que ninguém recriminou a Ban Ji Yeon de namorar um cara mais novo, o que acontece em vários dramas, os pais de ambos protagonistas foram uns amores. O casal de amigos da Ji Yeon foram uma graça a parte, sempre levando humor. Soo Cheo, amigo do nosso protagonista, foi o personagem responsável por boa parte do humor da história, tinha horas que achava que ele gostava do Dong Ha mais do que um amigo, (hahaha) um dos melhores bromance. É realmente impressionante ver como o Hyun Min consegue fazer personagens completamente diferentes e se encaixar em todos eles.
Yoon Dong Ha, nosso protagonista, com apenas 25 anos demonstrou ser uma pessoa responsável e madura apesar da pouca idade. Ele é aquele homem perfeito que toda brasileira quer: trabalhador, honesto, maduro, responsável, fiel, amigo, romântico e com o bônus de ser bonito e rico, ou seja, perfeito. O personagem e a atuação extraordinária do ator, me deixou apaixonada por Park Seo Joon (se vier ao Brasil estamos aê!) e ele, sem dúvidas, foi o motivo de ter retornado a assistir o drama. O final como já era de se esperar não foi lá grandes coisas, mas foi bonito. Super recomendo o drama.
