I'm on a Jo In Sung kick right now so even though Shoot for the Stars is very outdated, I thought the premise sounded fun and it wouldn’t hurt to give it a try…

Story: Predictable but it had a lot of heart. It never got draggy and the pacing was well done. Since the OTP had a straightforward romance with no misunderstandings, it made for a really enjoyable watch. The ending was =)

Acting/Cast: Well of course I knew Jo In Sung going in and how well he could act, but I was kind of unsure about the lead actress. I found her portrayal of Sora spot on but her character is kind of loud and annoying in the beginning. When you get used to her, you will come to accept her for who she is. I was also completely surprised by the amazing chemistry between the leads. It was soo good and worth watching just for their romance. I really liked the side characters that were apart of their posse. I didn’t however, like the second female and male leads. Their characters were so not redeemable and it made ALL of their scenes a waste of screentime in my opinion.

Music: What you would expect from an oldie.

Rewatch: Definitely would watch again in the near future cause the pacing was good and I loved the leads together.

Overall you should watch this is you’re a fan of JIS or if you like heartwarming dramas with lots of romance.

From 2002 to 2018, many things have changed, but if you're looking for an interesting story full of hope for a better life, watching this series is not a blessing.
The love between the two main characters in the series is full of ups and downs, but unbreakable.
This series shows that the industry is very competitive and hard-working, and you have to make a lot of selflessness in order to become a movie star.
The difference in age between the two main actors is also more attractive and, of course, a kind of taboo breakdown????????????????
