Go Back Couple is a cute drama that will bring your teen years back, or at least it did for me because I was 10 in 1999. Despite the time slip has been used a lot in kdrama, the story managed to feel new and cute, with lots of different characters who will make you laugh and cry with their stories and situations I'm sure everyone has lived once in her/his life. The brownie point is that the drama is 12 episodes long, so the story doesn't drag and is resolved in reasonable ways.

A reason why I started this drama was Jang Na Ra, who is one of my favorite actresses. She can do happy, sad, angry and other emotions very well without exaggerating. In this drama she plays a 38 year old woman but also her 20 year old self and it was cute to see how she was both mature and young at the same time. I loved her chemistry with all the cast members but of course, I liked how she seemed comfortable with the male lead Son Ho Jun, who was a revelation for me because I didn't know him. I hope he'll get more male lead roles in the future because he has talent. The supporting cast was also super likeable, because they portrayed such different personalities who blended well together, and their stories were interesting like the one of the main leads. This is another reason to watch, because you won't feel bored by anyone on this show.

The music was good and I'll listen to the tunes in the future. They also included some 90's Korean songs (which I don't know, but it was nice they put them to create the 99' feel).

It's a must watch. It's a light drama with moments that will make you think, not the usual romantic comedy but more of a "dramedy". You'll shed tears of joy and sadness, but in the end it will be worth it.
