I am writing the first review for this drama and I guess not many people knows about this drama because it is shown around 10 years ago. So well, I guess not many people will be reading this review but still, I have the urge of writing it.
I watched this show when I was in primary school, but I didn't understand the drama. However, I don't know why I could still remember this drama until now. I began to rewatch this drama a year ago and started to understand the whole story plot. And I can say that this drama has made a big impact on me. Westside Story is basically a drama about friendship and youth. If you are only about romance, sorry I guess this drama won't fulfill your appetite.
Each episode pulls me closer to understanding of happiness. Why am I always not satisfied with my life? Why am I always being afraid of many things? Why why why. This drama taught me something. Only facing your problem is the only way that makes you happy. There is a sentence I loved from the drama and here's the translation "Only forget can make you happy, escaping from reality won't solve the problem. However, in order to learn how to forget, we need to learn these four things - face it, accept it, overcome it, let it go." This particular sentence make me reflect alot alot. I am just an ordinary teenager with so many worries, so many obstacles yet to overcome. But this drama made an impact on my life. To face those problems positively. If not, what is the meaning of living on with so many obstacles around you? P.S: I might have been out of topic but I am just writing out my true feelings for this show.
This drama is truly one of the masterpieces I have watched because it motivates and inspires you alot, it makes you think alot. If you are still a teenager, this drama is really highly recommended because it teaches you about life.
I love the songs also, they are songs that are so magical. Why do I say so? After watching the drama, I can't resist but to play those songs over and over again especially ?? ?? and ??. Even if you happen to chance upon these songs, you will have the feeling of rewatching the show again. HAHAHA okay I guess I am exaggerating but this really happen to me.
I am really glad that SETTV has produced such a good drama. Well should I say, SETTV has been producing good dramas over the years such as Autumn's Concerto, Fated To Love You, The Prince Who Turned Into A Frog. Sadly the dramas produced by this channel these days have been receiving lower ratings due to the poor story plot. I really hope Taiwan dramas could produce more interesting story plots. AND I REALLY MISS 5566!!!
