Cute simple story

Mm i think i love it not becoz of plot, i love it becoz of acting . Different kind of story line actually it fun.. if they show us who is revenge master and bit more romance this would be more complete..

All cast members did their best i love them all.. kim hwang gi i like her she and her frien is really cute type so i like them.. and park soloman also did his best and he is really hot he he and his frien also did his job very well actually he is very funny.. as for cha eun woo i dont need to tell u all guys know how cute and talented he is.. sadness is he become 2nd male lead and left heart broken 😥. Firstly i thought he is main lead and girl is going to be his but one of my friend said he is 2nd lead and not going to get girl after heard that i feel sad and dont want to watch more.. but actually after first 3 episode soloman's character come up more and more so i thought if he did not get girl it will be unfair he he.. I am really happy they did not show cha eun woo's more scenes like he is heart broken etc etc.. ah i fogot to tell i really love hwang gi s brother too he is really cute

Overall good drama you can enjoy it.. and you need just one day to watchd it

Scenes that happens often in our real lives most probably during your teens period. It is nice to watch and to learn and view as third person view - watching how it begin, how to fight for it or solving it.. however I can’t be sure whether they rush it at the very end or perhaps there are lots of answers in sequel. Though I find it worth of watching. It is short and quite direct/simple plot that easier to understand. By the way, the main lead look so much like Samuel ????are they related? And CW from Astro - really goood looking ???? I guess just this point can pretty much attract people to watch. And the second female lead, wifey of CW. Damn...she fit so much in this character of her ???????????????? Keep it uppp

Cha Eun Woo is here, what else to say? Kidding aside it's a great school drama

It's a lightweight school drama and is really easy to watch because 1) it's not too long with it's bite size 11 episodes which is around 30 minutes each, 2) the casts matches the age of a high schooler, 3) the concept is simple. In this short drama it addresses a lot of issues and ideas like bullying, sexual harassment, mental issue, relationships, family and many more.

I'll be honest, this drama is filled with eye candies so it's really hard not to love it. Cha EunWoo, Park Solomon and even Ji GunWoo isn't too bad himself. Just seeing them on screen makes me smile right away (sorry for the fangirling commercial) but also at the same time, the storyline is also intriguing enough for me to keep watching it. Although I understand some people might not like that this series is not as detailed as most dramas. It doesn't show how the 'revenge' really happens or who does it. It feels more of like a magic wherein after the name is entered, a revenge is being acted upon.
(Although there were also lot of hints that points out that it was GoHee's brother, Heo GoJoon is the Revenge Note master.)

It also ended in a rush making you feel like wanting more episodes. There were lots of loose ends. Like what happens to the suspicions of AhJoon regarding the notification he received, I thought he's a hacker so I was thinking he could be more. Also, Cha EunWoo disappeared after GoHee's birthday and there wasn't even a proper wrap as to what happened to him. Who was really the Master and how did he/she ended up making the Revenge Note?

Despite all the questions left, this web drama series is worth-bingeing. It won't even take up a day to finish it. This is highly recommended. It would actually be good as well if you can share the assumptions and theories you formulated after this drama.

Truly not a terrible show, easy to watch and it was fast; not much context or story building or development but you still got the experience of the show. I liked the real life take of their everyday lives and how they handled things but I also liked the fantasy twist of it; I liked the younger characters because honestly they were extremely developed for their age and this drama of show. Truly, the main characters and story lines were definitely nice and awesome, easy to keep up with, just a fun watch all in all. The music isn't terrible, it's probably worth rewatching when you're bored, it's just a nice filler show for the time being.

It was so hard to find subtitles for this drama.
I watched the first few episodes with 25% of the subtitles missing.
The spent 2 hours trying to find a website that has subtitles for ep 21 and 22.
(For those who are currently struggling to find eng sub for this; I used kissasian to watch ep 21 and 22, it was the only website I found that has eng sub, but it is superrr slow and has tonns of pop up ads, it kinda ruined my experience with the series :(()

The story line is interesting, but there are plot holes. If you don't like series that ends with a question/ cliff hanger than I recommend not watching this.

I loveeee all the cast. All the main cast are so cuteee! The main cast are really young so they actually look like high school kids (unlike other dramas where the cast is 30 yrs old, and looks 30, but in the drama they are suppose to be 16 XD. Jihoon is so handsome , Go Hee is adorable, Deok Hee and her mom are so relatable.

I don't think there were any OST, except the intro? So I can't really rate the music XD

Spoilers below~
I WANT TO KNOW WHO IS BEHIND THE REVENGE NOTE >:(
I think it's Go Hee's brother but I want it to be confirmed

What happened to Eunwoo?
I thought he would fight over Go Hee or something, but he just disappeared after the photo shoot

If you want light drama with no heavy plot, you should watch Sweet Revenge.

If you want a light drama with no heavy plot, you should watch Sweet Revenge. I think the reason why it was light drama is because it was a web drama. It was light and funny. I watched it because of a video from Facebook, and I saw Park Solomon as the main lead.

STORY/PLOT:
- Light and easy to watch. I actually watched it while I was doing some school work. For me, it doesn't have to be in focus because it was light. The thing I really love about this drama is having a different story or case per episode. Is it a satisfying ending? I don't know if it was okay. There is one character that I didn't give so much closure to. I thought at the end of the drama they would become friends again, but it was good that even though they are not BFF, they still do not fight like before. Also, in Cha Eun-Woo's character, his character doesn't have a proper ending. He just disappeared like a bubble. He didn't even get a chance to confess his feelings for Goo-Hee. But I think it was understandable because it was a web drama and mini-series. Overall, I give the story an 8/10.

ACTING/CAST:
- The casting is one of my favorites because all of them are just aspiring artists, and they did a good job! It was not perfect, but understandable because all of them were aspiring artists. But, in my opinion, every actor in this show gave it their all, so kudos to them. My favorite character is Jung Deok-Hee. The actress really did a good job portraying the character. Overall, I give the story a 10/10.

MUSIC:
- There isn't really much to say about the soundtracks; there was dramatic music when a dramatic moment occurred and sad music when a sad occurrence occurred. Although it wasn't bad, the song didn't particularly stand out. Overall, I'd give the music a 5/10.

REWATCH VALUE:
- I can't review this because I am that someone who rewatches a drama, but overall I give the rewatch value of 9/10 because the drama was light. I think I will just watch it again if I am stressed and I don't want to watch heavy drama.

This series is a sweet little bundle of friendships, romance, and imagination. However, if you're seeking a short break, this is the program for you. If you're looking for something heavy, this is not for you.

Overall rating: 9/10 
Enjoy watching!

What we always wanted in life

I remember watching this because of Lomon, i was a HUGE fan of him even though he was not in many drama. Super excited when this was first released. I still do rewatched it at some point. It’s good, it’s really unique with the revenge note which allows you to take revenge on the people that harm you or your friends/family. It’s what we always wanted therefore it keeps me going but it does lack in terms of the story.

For a teenage drama, it is still good but if you look at the overall rating as a drama then it does lack especially the story after episode 13/14? Do give this a watch if you want something light and unique.

OLDIE BUT CUTIES - SWEET revenge for a reason

It's pretty old now so you gotta give it some wiggle room but OVERALL it was pretty cute!!

A classic highschool bully etc type drama.

Honestly, every "revenge" felt SO well deserved!! Finally a drama that really gives what the audience wants in terms of justice and integrity!

However, that made this drama pretty predictable ~

Cute romance however the main girl - she's definitely not my favorite but going along with it since she's so young, especially in the drama too.

Cha Eun Woo was adorable as always and I actually really liked the male lead as well!

Super adorable and was a not bad watch!!

Hard To Remember.

This show, geez.
It's a light comedy romance high school drama, girl who has no confidence suddenly got a revenge note app to get revenge on terrible people, you'll understand way quicker than you thought. I personally picked this show because ONE. Chan Eun Woo. And TWO. not that much episodes, and they were short too so I watched it to past time!
This isn't a spoiler but they're NO kisses between the main leads, just saying.
Also I have to say the Female Lead was annoying to me at times, she seemed weak. No no, scratch that, IS WEAK. I'm really starting to hate these weak female lead plots now a days. I have to mention that Cha Eun Woo is a supposed SML or just a main male character, where is he during episodes 6-8? or episodes 5-8? I can't remember but he was fully on ghost those episodes, and he's suppose to be a male lead?
Acting isn't that special, although everybody did their role well. The mains as a couple also did their role well too, didn't feel so much spark to them as I did months ago.
Music isn't special either, only liked one track out of that show.
I wouldn't re watch this show, not for a bad reason. It's just that there's nothing to re watch? Unless you wanna re watch those Revenge Note scenes.
In total, DO NOT expect ANYTHING amazing in this show expect for the Revenge Note App. That's all that made me even stick to this show, and Cha Eun Woo as well. The shows original but just so plain and boring? Revenge Note 2 was better in a lot of aspects.

Worth watching


This drama is about a app which takes revenge when a name is written in there.Through out the drama it is used for a good reason. The characters are really sweet, cute and chemistry of them is worth watching. This drama is funny yet it is intense. The drama makes you wonder who is behind the revenge note and why he/she is helping her the whole time through this app.Suspense keeps building up and keeps you watching to find out the real person behind this.

This is really sad or what should say? It leaves us to wander around to find answers and even didn’t give us a proper hint to find the person behind it.

But except this, the drama is great and the cast is awesome, cute and sweet :3

I would definitely loved to watch this again and again

A Delightful High School Teen Drama

A high school teen drama with an interesting twist of a "Sweet Revenge" phone app made available to really nice, cute girl called Goo Hee. Needless to say, nice, cute girls in dramas are often bullied and on her first day reporting for high school, she meets Ji Hoon on a bus, where she forgot to top up her bus card. Their first exchange was not a comfortable one. However, soon they realize, not only do they take the same bus to school everyday, they also attend the same class. As expected, their familiarity slowly progresses to infatuation to fondness, then (ahem) love.

Yes, the story is predictable and nothing new. And yet, the drama garnered sufficient interest from me. The actors were casted well for their roles, the two leads were suited together, the fellow students were mean enough, friends, parents and teachers had enough material to make every episode enjoyable to watch. The fact that it is only 12 episodes helped.

However, the key that drove the basis of this drama is the "Sweet Revenge" phone app 'helper'. The FL just have to tap the word 'yes' and the helper will proceed to take revenge on people the FL is angry with . The helper then send her a note when revenge mission is complete. How nice. As revenge is not a good thing to do, eventually the FL realizes that there are many problems we can solve ourselves. She soon realizes that she need not use the app anymore as she matures in her thoughts and gains confidence in her own decisions. Having a handsome and supportive boyfriend in Ji Hoon is part of that recipe too.

And I was extra pleased to watch Cha Eun Woo. I noticed him since My ID is Gangnam Beauty. In this drama Sweet Revenge which was done a year before ID is Gangnam, he plays 'himself', a member of the boy band Astro. Good looking and charming as always.

Overall, I enjoyed watching this drama. Light and easy.

Eun Woo was my reason for starting this. I was intrigued about the concept of using a smartphone to get revenge on someone. I was fully invested in the story because it was new to me. Unfortunately after maybe 11 episodes there was no more Eun Woo or subtitles :'-( and by the time I got to episode 14 I was just bored out of my skull playing a garden game on my phone. Whilst I did enjoy the revenge part I absolutely hate the bullying (in all dramas).

I loved the friendship between Eun Woo, the female lead and her brother and the fact that the first lead was always nearby to give her a hand whenever an issue came about. Didn't really care for anybody else.

I literally only paid attention when I heard an ASTRO song get played.

Even though I started this drama for Eun Woo, I stopped because of the lack of subtitles was driving me insane not understanding what was going on. Watching the characters doing whatever they were doing was simply not enough for me as well as the constant bullying. Therefore for these reasons I will not rewatch never mind actually complete it. Sorry.

I would say that I only recommend this drama if you don't mind the lack of subtitles (or you understand korean) and like the storyline.
