Most people might disagree with me, but I enjoyed the first season more. Here, they mainly relied on Sam and Yu's chemistry, which is obviously there, but the plot... huh, I just felt like there was much more developement in the first season. Hopefully, if a 3rd season comes out, it will be as good as the first one.
I was not about to watch this drama, even though I've seen 17 Again years ago, but I decided to give it a try and WOW, I enjoyed it a lot! Lee Dohyun was amazing! The other leads and supporting cast also did a great job. The show had lots of cheesy moments, but I really liked the personal growth and the messages the drama relayed. There are no perfect people and thus, there are no perfect relationships, so if you want to stay with someone, you should keep trying your best. It's funny how while most people try to avoid their parents' mistakes, they end up doing the same ones. I'll remember this drama with warm feelings for a very long time.
I'm waiting for the day he'll get a main role! I've been following him for years and he's done a great job at portraying younger versions of actors in dramas, but he's all grown up now, so I'm sure we'll get to see more amazing projects from him in the future! :)
The cast looks very promising! I'm sure everybody is excited, because of the male actors (I totally love Changwook, Inyeop and Dareum), but Sungeun is amazing too! I'm currently watching her in Beyond Evil and her acting is amazing, plus that's her first drama, so for a rookie actress, she's really good! She's also very beatiful!
The movie has its flaws, but the chemistry and the acting were definitely very good! What can I say... enjoy life to the fullest and appreciate the little things, because as Yabe said... you never know what's going to happen tomorrow, so if you don't want to regret anything - live every day as if it would be your last.
I somehow made the mistake to watch the movie first and then the series, so I saw them in the wrong order xD But I don't think that was a big problem, because apart from the different actors... I also found a lot of different things in the personalities of the characters and I feel like the movie and the series can be watched separately, because the sequel doesn't start from the point where the prequel series ended.
Personally, I liked the movie more, because it touched more topics. I liked how they showed us that sometimes, we need to take a step back and be less selfish for the greater good, especially when it comes to the upbringing of a child, which is obviously... the biggest task in the world. Hio is one of the most handsome Japanese actors I've seen!

The series was nice and it was realistic, but I feel like I needed more. Props to all the actors though and especially Sara, she was great! Personally, I liked the movie more.
I haven't seen the main couple's previous works, but they definitely do seem comfortable working together and they have chemistry. The drama touched some very sensitive topics and there were some nice plot twists, but there were also many things that could've been better and less cringy. It was still a good attempt at something different though, so I don't regret watching it.
I am so glad I stumbled upon this drama by chance! It was light, funny, cute, but it could also teach you some valuable lessons such as to treasure and love yourself. The actors did an amazing job, I was very surprised! My biggest regret with this drama was that the main couple teased us a lot and left us hanging xD A solid 8.5/10 for me! :)
Korea is getting bolder when it comes to BL this year, but the actors they choose are still quite awkward when it comes to skinship. The two leads were cute as friends, but as a couple... it was a bit forced. The plot was overboard. The drama was short, yes, but it would've been much more pleasant without the unneeded drama. Something which disturbed me was that we could easily see their breath during many scenes. Like damn... poor people, this was obviously filmed in Winter, hopefully they were not too cold...
This movie was quite nice. The actors did a great job. This actually covers only the first volume of the manga, so if you want to know more about how their relationship progresses, I advice you to read the other two volumes :)
I really enjoyed the drama. It was meant to be funny and it really was. The acting was on point! Props not only to the main, but the supporting cast as well! The plot was a bit too much at times, but that always happens in historical dramas xD My biggest problem with the drama was... the relationship between Cheol Jong and So Yong, because I felt like everything between them would've been much different if it weren't for Bong Hwan. I just feel like Cheol Jong started paying more attention to So Yong only after she drastically changed, so the love between the actual So Yong and Cheol Jong didn't feel natural to me. The last two episodes were a little bit of a let down for me, honestly, but the drama was still something quite different and enjoyable, so an 8/10 for me.
I had high expectation for this drama, but sadly... I was heavily disappointed. The acting was good, but the plot was just ridiculous at times and I found the drama quite boring. I felt absolutely no chemistry between the leads as a couple, it was like their feelings for each other were forced and just there, how and why they fell in love though... that would always stay a mystery for me. Itaewon Class was also based on revenge/setting up your own business/showing you are better than someone else, but it was far better than Start Up and it really kept me on the edge. In this drama, everything felt like empthy talk to me and I wasn't interesnted in what would happen to the characters and how they would resolve their problems. So... the love story lacked a lot and so did the rest of the story. I'll give this a 6/10, but even that feels like a lot.
Out of all the short BL series, which have been released since the summer of 2020, we finally got some proper kissing in this one. I can't say the story was wow, but it's good to see that things are getting into the right direction. Hopefully, the new releases will just get better and better.
The story and the drama itself weren't anything special, but the actors and their chemistry did make it work. I am way past high school stories and I wasn't even going to watch the show, but I decided to give it a try and I don't regret it. Props to all the supporting cast as well, because they definitely gave their best and made the drama so much better. I know the webtoon is quite different, but having in mind that it has 100+ episodes, I think they went down the right path with the choices they made with the drama. This was full of cliches, ridiculous moments and yet it was quite endearing in its own way. Surprisingly, I'm going to miss the show and the smiles it brought to my face.
I'm sure everyone would agree that he definitely stole the spotlight in True Beauty! The moment I saw him, he really reminded me of Lee Joon Gi! Years ago, he could've definitely played a younger version of him in a drama. I can't wait for more from Inyeop! :)
The whole thing with monos and phrobes was super interesting! & Yoo Jun's acting was on point, but apart from that... this short drama was faaar from good and that can't be blamed only on the lenght. I wish Korea would do better with its BL series.
Until the very last episode, the most memorable thing of this drama for me will stay... the ADS! Wow, I have never seen so many advertisements in a single drama! As a whole, I can't say I enjoyed it much. I was much more interested in the other characters and not the main couple. The first few episodes were thrilling and dark, there was suspense, after that.... it went downhill. A shaky 6/10 for me.
The second season was as good as the first one, if not better. It was somehow more intense and I felt a bigger connection to the characters, perhaps because we had already seen most of them in season 1. My biggest regret with this drama is that they don't reveal much personal information about the characters and their life. I understand that the main aspect of the story are the crimes, but still... It's a pity that those who are supposed to protect us and keep us safe, end up doing the opposite while abusing their power, but sadly that's something which happens in every country. I really liked Shimok's growth in this season!
Sang Ha was very cute, but... that was it haha The plot was a mess. I didn't have high expectations, but still... this could've been much better without all the drama and things which made little sense especially in the second half of the series.
Here, they mainly relied on Sam and Yu's chemistry, which is obviously there, but the plot... huh, I just felt like there was much more developement in the first season.
