Slow Drama With Memorable Moments

For those who enjoy watching high school dramas dealing with teenagers growing pain, "Moment At 18" was an interesting show for me to watch. This drama takes a more mature and deeper view into each of it's characters journey which is memorable.

However, I struggled with the mood and tone of the Director's cut, as the drama truly took it's time to develop. It became a long 16 episodes watch for me.

The only thing that kept me going was to see the very quiet and gentle "Jun Woo" slowly become strong, confident and standing up for himself. Kang Ki Young who played "Han Gyul" was VERY GOOD in his role as the dedicated and invested teacher, that guided and stood firmly when it came to students matters. However, the MAJOR performance did come from Shin Seung Ho "Hwi Young", YES, the baddie student. He portrayed his mean guy role so well, my heart went out to him.

So, if not for the 'slow' mood of the drama, I found it got better towards later episodes where there were many moments that pulled at my heartstrings, I could not hold back my tears.
