Just had to go and do it...

Up to this point I thought we'd escape the woke LGBmouse junk in the script but, no...some writer needed to add this as if it were a new spice necessary for all recipe's now. I wished they would have had the main character and his girlfriend standing up to lunatic mother. Hitting a child like that, if that's a norm for Korean families, is detestable. Had I been the boyfriend mom would have been escorted to the car.
All in all, a fun and thought provoking drama. The teacher is coming out to be a real hero in all of this!

This drama has everything. It captures the innocence of 18 so beautifully. The lead casts take the cake. All three of them are so good! If you are confused about whether to watch it or not, just watch the first episode and you will end up watching every single episode. The lead actor is LOVE! You will instantly fall in love with him. Can't wait for the new episodes!

One of the best Korean school dramas ever. The best thing about this drama is - it speaks volume about Korean school pressure!

I was an Italian translator on Viki for this drama, it had a huge potential that faded into nothing. Even so I didn't watch it as a public, I saw many pieces that made me understand the story completely. Sadly the huge potential of portraying the Korean teen society led to the classic rom-com with an unclear end just because they had to let it finish on time or another. A good drama to watch if you don't really have nothing else or if you just like this of stories...

Frustrating

God I really hate how they portray the system in this series. True or, not - I cannot see how any of the bad characters can have any kind of redemption beyond having them jump off their famous suicide bridge you see in every other drama. I will stick with this all the way to the end and then, write of the overall feeling and such but, at the end of episode 5 - my only wish is to have all the bad guys go off a cliff in a bus together. LOL

Let's kill all the good people and have anyone who has half a soul have a miserable life. Everyone else who has money and control - let them be happy and only worry about where they are going to spend their money. Jeez - you ended up having more compassion for the crazy rich girl in My Absolute Boyfriend than any of these villain losers. And, whether it happens or, not - if the villains are turned into good guys/people - I would just place that as lazy writing. In the real world that just doesn't happen.

this show is boring. just talking

the show is just non-stop talking. the cast I can't say much but the love triangle was great but still..... boring. and also the soundtrack is not that bad. I don't recommend rewatching because the show has no fun and mostly talking. if they want to make this show better, I suggest a second lead syndrome or maybe a better script for the love triangle or add something more intense during the drama like one of the main cast died in an accident or more fighting between the love triangle. I will recommend those who are reading my review to watch other shows. not this one. please

Uma referência de drama escolar

Acho que podia ter desenvolvido melhor alguns personagens secundários, como o do Moonbin, mas a história é muito realista em vários pontos. Você se apega aos personagens e se emociona com as dificuldades de cada um, percebe que ninguém é totalmente mau ou justo. Os atores são muito bons, começando pela Hyanggi e pelo Ong. (protagonistas).
Recomendo muito para quem gosta de séries sobre jovens e os seus mil e um problemas, me lembra até um pouco "Quando Éramos Jovens" de 2018 da China ou "Escola 2017" da Coreia.
Tem OSTs incríveis, como "Moments" do Christopher e "Our Story" do próprio Ong. Vale a pena ver!

Je pense, que Moment at Eighteen se classera parmi mes dramas favoris sans trop de problème.

Les points forts :
Le rythme -> en un épisode on passe du rire aux larmes, puis du fangirling à la tristesse à nouveaux, bref on s'ennuie pas!
Les événements sont bien répartit sur la durée du drama.

Les visuels -> le drama est bien filmé, les plans sont très beaux, certaines scènes sont si bien faites (plan + acteurs + rendu final), très naturelles.

Les thèmes abordés -> la différence de classe, le harcèlement, le fais que les adultes peuvent être d'une immaturité ahurissante dans des moments ou les jeunes auraient besoin de la sagesse de leur expérience, que l'amour peut être plus fort qu'une averse ou un orage dans une relation, et surtout, le pardon de ceux qui font des erreurs par maladresse et non pas par méchanceté pure.

Le cast -> il est incroyable, les acteurs sont en moyenne très jeunes et pourtant ils jouent tous super bien, le jeu est réaliste, pas de fioritures. Les émotions sont palpables et touchantes.
Mention au jeu de Ong & Seung Oh qui sont hyper bons, Ong est très expressif et pour un premier main role j'ai trouvé ça incroyable.

Les points faibles :
La gestion des événements -> une fois que la romance est installée je trouve qu'elle à parfois tendance à gommer certains événements.

La fin -> j'apprécie la fin ouverte, toutefois à croire les personnages on croirait que JW change de pays alors que bon... ce n'est que quelques heures de bus.

En conclusion, je pense qu'il y a de belles morales et de bons messages à en tirer, il est super à regarder et je le recommanderai volontiers. :)

¿LO RECOMIENDO?
Sí, especialmente si eres fan de los dramas escolares o te gustaría empezar a verlos.

El ost es precioso, la fotografía es muy bonita (me recuerda a una mezcla entre "The smile in your eyes" y "Wightlifting Fairy Kim Bokjoo"), los personajes tienen todos historias muy interesantes y tiene de todo: romance, dramas familiares, MUCHA injusticia que hace que quieras saber más para ver si se resuelven las cosas o no, amistades entrañables y como en cualquier drama escolar corano que se precia, una dura crítica al sistema educativo en Corea del Sur.

MI RESEÑA EN DETALLE (SIN SPOILERS)
Los primeros 5 capitulos de este drama te dejan muy mal, pero no porque sean malos si no porque en 5 horas te comes la miseria más absoluta de los personajes y por esta razón me costó mucho retomar el drama. Por suerte, si por alguna razón te sientes como yo y crees que no aguantas tanta injusticia en el drama, te aliviará saber que a partir del episodio 6 todo mejora y tendrás un mejor sabor de boca viendo los episodios.

Soy una persona que disfruta ver pasar a los personajes por momentos dificiles y que así se desarrollen, pero los primeros eps de este drama fueron como cientos de cuchillos en el corazón (solo mi opinión). Sin embargo, la crueldad de la trama (si es que se puede llamar así) no quita que los personajes y sus historia te atrapen desde el minuto uno.

Moment at eighteen es un drama escolar de mis favoritos, con problemas y personajes qu pueden parecer de primeras lo típico de cualquier drama coreano adolescente. El alumno obsesionado por conseguir el mejor puesto de la escuela hasta puntos rídiculos, el chico que no pone mucha atención en los estudios y se mete en problemas, la alumna perfecta pero con problemas en casa... Sí, estos son los típicos personajes de dramas escolares, pero porque son perfectos para contar los problemas de la sociedad coreana y aunque parezca repetitivo, Moment at eighteen los hace ver distintos y únicos.

¡SPOILERS! - SOBRE LO DE OH JE/MOONBIN
Nunca jamás había visto un drama con un personaje principal lgbt (no sé si es gay o bisexual) y cuando este drama marcó la diferencia juro que casi me pongo a llorar. La representación en Corea está muy, muy atrasada y es casi inexistente, con menos de los dedos de una mano puedes contar los personajes lgbt de dramas coreanos, normalmente no relevantes a la trama y tratando su sexualidad como algo taboo.

Moment at eighteen, en cambio, hizo a un personaje querido y lgbt. Me encanta. Aún así, me decepcionó que no se tocara más el tema con Hwiyoung, no pedía que terminaran juntos porque sabía que eso ya era mucho pedir lol, pero almenos algún momento entre ellos incluso si no era romántico me hizo falta.

O dorama começa com um clima leve, apesar de muitos conflitos acontecendo ao nosso protagonista, durante os episódios não acontece nada realmente muito pesado como eu achei que seria.
Os nossos protagonistas Jun Woo e Yu SooBin tem uma química muito perfeita, é tudo muito bem trabalhado e nada é forçado, é realmente relaxante e fofo acompanhar esses dois protagonistas, quanto ao "Vilão" do dorama Hwi Young; Eu achei ele realista, não é um vilão totalmente maldoso, apenas alguém com certa falta de carácter e também egoísta. Não espere muito plot twist nessa história, quanto ao final do dorama; Eu achei um tanto largado e mau resolvido, e não deram destaque a um outro casal, o que é realmente chato.Apesar disso recomendo assistirem, é ótimo para descansar enquanto maratona.
