The BEST Kdrama I have watched in AGES!!!! ✨?
Before starting this kdrama I didn't know what I was getting into. I thought it would be just another drama with that clichè story of travelling back in time. And I swear I have never written review for any drama before but this drama is SOOOO GOOD I had to let people know what they're missing on if anyone hasn't watched it yet!The casting has been done perfectly. The chemistry between the cast, their acting everything just feels so natural. All the funny scenes are so beautifully done it doesn't feel forced at all. It's a whole package it'll make you laugh, make you cry, make you get excited over the bromance and make you feel the romance.
The title fits perfectly this drama will actually make you feel refreshed like after eating a watermelon 🍉
It is one of those dramas that will lighten up your mood, give you that youthful feeling. I can't wait for my eun-se and chan-ah couple to end up together but at the same time I don't want this drama to end 🥺

A masterpiece of a drama
Everything was done perfectly in this drama. This is the first time I'm not writing any negatives for a drama.I usually steer away from school dramas and time travel since the former is always cheesy for me and the latter is usually full of angst. But this show had the perfect harmony of warm, angsty, cute, romantic and mystey vibes. The writer needs a standing ovation for making such a brilliant story. No! All the crew members and actors need a standing ovation for this.
Everything in this show was perfect. The story, world building, casting of the actors, character growth...... everything was perfect. Special mention to the actors who showed wonderful acting. Seeing them made me emotional and after finishing this show the vibes still lingered which is what you want from a good show. The chemistry between the characters were great and it was just so great to see disability representation done carefully and with appreciation.
Nothing can stop me from praising this show. If I'm allowed to be selfish, I just wanted another episode for the epilogue or an extended ending to see everyone's life in 2023. But still nothing to complain. But I wonder why this show isn't mentioned much in korea ? I mean, i regularly watch K-shows and it seems like this drama didn't trend among koreans like it was with international fans. If it's true, then koreans really missed out on such a hidden gem. This needs more recognition.
Overall, a wonderful example of what makes a drama a great show. Nothing but respect for the people who worked on this. 10/10.

A little Treasure
Anyone who sees the 10 stars I gave might think that I am biased or that I may be a fan of one of the actors (which I am now after watching this). and maybe I am high on my emotions after just finishing this drama. Who knows.
I knew this drama was going to be special from the first couple of minutes of the first episode. I can't even make a proper review due to how much this drama means to me.
Some things come to you at the right time and heal your soul. It's so beautiful and full of hope and love. It made me reflect on my own life.
From the casting to the story and the music, everything was done with so much care. You can tell everyone involved in the production did their best to make this special.
I like many genres but somehow my favorite dramas always end up being stories about families, friendships, and people trying and chasing their dreams. And this one had all the above along with romance but romance wasn't the main point of the show. I think what this comes down to is a story about a father and a son. And it was so lovely to watch.
I cried and laughed a lot while watching it . I loved every moment. This drama is my little treasure that I found this year and I love it dearly.

best drama I've ever watched
the acting was amazing, the storyline was amazing, the message was amazing, the filming was amazing, it was just such a good drama!! I've rewatched it twice already. It is a funny drama with one or two sob scenes. I will never shut up about this. i knew this would be an amazing show knowing choi hyunwook plays in it. if you liked Julie and the phantoms, you will eat this up!! the music is amazing! I was wondering if choi hyunwook actually sings in this as his voice is very similar to the singer of higher... but that doesn't matter because it's great nonetheless. the fact they used sign language makes me so happy!! the actors also actually learned how to play the instruments so it's very accurate :)Was this review helpful to you?
A must watch kdrama with a lot of depth
As soon as I saw the trailer for this kdrama I knew I would be a big fan of it.But ngl, after starting the first episode I thought it was a bit slow. That was until the show picked up. Then on it was a weekly painful wait for this show to release as I loved every bit off it.
This drama had a lot of big strengths, one of them being the extremely strong cast. Usually in some dramas I tend to forget about the side characters but particularly in this drama all of them have Soo much depth, that I loved every bit off it. Must I add more about the chemistry between the main leads ( all of them ) and their acting. Perfect in all sense.
The ost in this drama was amazing too. All of the different songs in the drama were very vibey and I thought it fit perfectly with the premise. The sets of the drama along with the funny moments just added even more to such an amazing drama.
My only wish was that the final episode was longer and explored a bit more. But apart from that such a big fan of the drama and cannot recommend it more.

Amazing Show
This show was amazing and I loved everything about it, especially the sorry line I have no complaints except for the fact that to me the main couple was kind of boring because they didn't really interest me. I liked Ha Yi Chan and Cung Ah more they were interesting and everything about their love story is just so cute. Another thing I didn't really like I that when Eun Gyeol came back to the future everything was different and now they were these rich people and I guess that's what happens when you change the past but I just feel as if it was sad that those sweet moments they had in his childhood technically didn't exist anymore. Also, the story doesn't make sense if Eun Gyeol went to the past and altered the future then when he came back to the future shouldn't he not remember his old childhood and now remember a new version with all the changes he made. Other than does small things the story is amazing and I would definitely recommend this.Was this review helpful to you?

Best K-Dramas I've watched so far!
My Opinion of the K-DramaTwinkling watermelon is one of the best k-dramas so far that I've watched. The Story talks about the Main Character Eun Gyeol travel back time to fix the past and know his family's past because of the relationship between him and his dad. He met his Dad and Mom in the past while they were still highschool students and tried to fix and save them from the past.
Music: I liked the music, it was so good and very relaxing, I give it a 10
The Acting was also very good and the Story was really funny, happy, and also talking and showing problems. The Story was also very sad and emotional. So I give it a rating of 10.
I liked the Actress Shin Eun Soo and The actor Choi Hyun Wook and I liked how their relationship was very emotional and also very sad because of the harsh treatment and scolding from Shin Eun Soo's mother-in Law (Idk).
This K-Drama remains as the best K-Drama I've watched so far in my life.

Touching
I didn't know how I'll crying after all, just started watch bcs some actors that I admire was in the screen, but the drama surprised me with photography, good acting also music. Wow, the voice of Ryeoun is powerful and the others guys shines too.The story is very good.
Seriously: this drama makes you cry, curse (sometimes) and wish the best to the kidos. Also you could appreciate the incredible voices.
Unfortunately I miss some chemistry with some characters, but nothing that I can't handle.

A heartwarming drama that will make you cry and laugh at the same time with a unique plot
I’ve been watching dramas for many year but I think despite the fact that twinkling watermelon is a new kdrama compared to my past favourite, it has achieved the top spot among my favourite kdramas of all time. Nothing compares to this kdrama. i don’t think I’ve ever cried soo much while watching ANY SHOW. and even tho it will make you cry, it has a happy ending and the story isn’t gloomy or sad either. its just heart touching in its own way and will also make you laugh. Here the actor that played “yoon chung ah”, her acting was outstanding, the way she communicated her feeling with just her eyes and hands is fascinating. the story isn’t too slow either.Was this review helpful to you?
Viva la vida!
Una storia di viaggio del tempo veramente interessante che omaggia la trilogia di 'ritorno al futuro' senza peró imitarla o essere scontata.Eun Gyeol é un 'coda', un ragazzo figlio di genitori non udenti che peró sente, e pertanto si ritrova a fare da ponte tra la sua famiglia e il resto del mondo. Un peso difficile da sostenere!
L'incapacitá di comunicare e l'isolamento che ne deriva, non solo per una disabilitá, ma anche per mancanza di voglia di comunicare. Anche chi sente, chi é 'normale', dimostra qui che si puó non capire e non percepire l'altro se manca l'intenzione di ascoltare, se si fa di tutto per isolarlo.
Di questo parla twinking watermelon.
Ma parla anche della possibilitá di creare ponti, di superare le barriere, sia che siano preesistenti sia che siamo noi stessi ad erigerle.
Perché si può comunicare in tanti modi, basta solo provare e trovare la via.
Spettacolari i protagonisti e la chimica di tutti il gruppo.
Viva la vida!

confusing until the middle-end.
overall the story of the drama is very good, don't want to really retype a summary of it. but overall like everybody else on viki commenters, were confused. i had to rewatch things multiple times on end to understand it because it kinda went extremely fast-paced in the beginning of it. also a lot of plot twists towards the end that started to all make sense at the end. very good story line, very good acting, music was goodish-mid, and i wouldn't rewatch it.favorite characters: Yun Cheong A, Ha I Chan
