The basic idea of this drama is great! Two people, who have a lot of own problems, fall in love with each other and (of yourse) conquer all these problems). Also, you can find a lot of topics here that I haven't seen before in another drama. But that's also somehow the problem: so many topics!
So you have the female lead who is a doctor and has problems with letting herself fall into a relationship. She is then betrayed by her boyfriend and in addition to that, she has a trauma from her past she has to deal with.
Then meet the writer, who himself has a tragic family story with his brother in jail and he himself having problems to sleep anywhere else but the bathtub. Apart from that he's a player. Oh, and did I mention that his ex girlfriend plagiarized his recent book? But only with the help of one of his close friends.
But wait, wait, there's more! SO MUCH MORE.....
And that's also why I really had a hard time getting through this drama in the beginning. I get it, not everyone has a smooth relationship or is mentally and physically healthy. BUT there seems to be no one in this drama without very complex and complicated problems - either with him/herself or with one of the other protagonists. After some time it just got utterly confusing for me to the point where I really asked myself what the hell was going on in this drama. Also, the fact, that some storylines are intorduced, but then somehow just disappear without an explanation (at least a somewhat clear explanation for me), bothered me! Up until episode 10 or 11 I was bound to drop this drama any minute and give it a really bad review.
But then there is the ending. The last 4/5 episodes are wonderful! They are really really intense and beautiful, and make up for the rest. The ending is also the reason why I still give the story an 8.
Acting/Cast:
Very well done from all the actors. Their characters were just a little annoying sometimes.
Music:
Oh I love the music in this one! Especially as there are not only Korean songs but many English ones as well. Great music!
Overall:
Watch it and try to not get annoyed by alls these different problems. The ending is worth it! Still, I will probably not rewatch this anytime soon.

Firstly, the story is really a very interesting one, involves time travelling but also mysteries about the past as well as dreams, friendship and romance. This interesting plot line captured me a lot throughout and I was so so so curious about what's going on. Many wild guesses and imaginative moments. Also FUNNY! Maybe because Im used to 2D1N kind of humour so this drama is really a crazily hilarious one for me.. So if you're a fan of the variety (Season 3), go for it!
And here comes the negative points of the drama. I see many comments about how this drama deviated away from the direction that they wished it went (story focus deviated) which I agree but it wasn't too bad cause my ship sailed for me. The only disturbing point for me is the ending. It was happy and ok but wasn't quite satisfying. Just left me still puzzled.
Next, the acting was superb. I wont deny that I'm a fan of YSY but that is because his acting is really good (and underrated). His portrayal of the drama is amazing especially since his real personality is totally opposite of his character in the drama. And CTH, KMJ, LSY and all the actors/actresses are equally amazing. I mean it. (Im just mentioning YSY in detail cause Im a fan haha) Im just taking out 0.5 marks out cause I think I may have missed out any awkward acting.
Lastly, Beautiful Beautiful is such an addictive song. I think PUNCH deserves to be called an OST queen... Not to diss Glabingo (the duet singer with PUNCH), but PUNCH should just sing with the EXO members to create more OST and drama hits. BUT THEN Beautiful Beautiful is still a perfect masterpiece:) More notable OSTs form the drama include Dream (rapped by KMJ), the songs by KyuHyun and Yoon Mirae (go Google).
It was a really an enjoyable drama, gave me reasons to stay at home on weekends. Cried at some points and laughed throughout. I think at some points it gave us a lot of deep reflections. It was a drama worthwhile of my time. I will give it a rewatch when I miss MR DDABONG because he is such a precious character. Let me end off by going off topic (like how I started), I hope Yoon Si Yoon can live more freely like how his character is in the drama, and lastly, I wish all actors/actresses/crews good luck in creating their Best Hits in life. You too!

- i was recommended this drama , watched half the first episode and then got bored .. went to watch other dramas when i finished what i had , i was told by the same friend that this drama is good .. so i hardly completed the 2nd half of the first ep and the BOOM! ... i was like i must see ep 2 ... and each ep led to the other .......
- the drama was so well written ... i loved the single mom's struggle ... the terrible father (we thought ) he was... the loving and helping fiance of the mother ... and the daughter ( the sick daughter) :/ ... she broke the pieces of my heart ..
- i am a big fan of "romanceless" dramas ... so all my fellows this is our thing although it contains much of a romance but it does not hurt at all.
- you know what i just wrote this to tell you that if u r hesitating JUST DO NOT ... this drama is master piece and it will grow on you day by day :) .

Uum this drama is ddabong!, the story is very refreshing and unpredictable. It's so funny like hell. I lost count how many times i have laughed for this show. This drama is good to cheer you up during tough times in life. Heavy drama could make you think harder and feel nervous, but this drama makes you feel younger because of the comedy. The 90's style is also very nostalgic. It's a journey about an ex-idol who learns about life through his family in the future. He learns to be a responsible adult eventually. It has many aspects, not only talking about one person's life but also the whole characters life, what their dreams, their hardwork to achieve it, a delayed dream that has been swallowed because of uncertainty, etc.Acting is great especially for hyun jae aka da bong. Cha tae hyun always does a great job. Grandpa is so lovely. Mal sok is cute and funny. Their family may not be perfect but they love each other.
Music is ok.
Rewatch: I have re-watched a few funny episodes.
Overall: a very satisfying drama, good job.

i will speak about the episodes from 1 to 14 .... the drama where the lead girl is sassy and not all cute n wronged is my favorite type ... i had a huge crush on AE RA's role , i loved it so much the tough girl with the tomboy attitude boy she captured the character so well :).
both stories were so good and well written , also the development of events is so well organized , the kind of "loser" character of the male lead hit me so hard ... it is different from what we've seen before ... i had my laughter and "fav moments" a lot with this drama .. i just loved all the details about it .. could it have been more complicated and mysterious !! yes BUT thank god the writers did not do that , the main charm is that it is a regular story of a regular couple and WHAT IS EVEN BETTER IS THAT THE STORY IS DERIVED FROM A REAL COUPLE'S LIFE ... HOW COOL IS THAT !!! , it is the kind of dramas u simply ENJOY :) it is definitely worth ur time.
LAST 2 EPS
writer nim if you have just added 2 more episodes and finished things the way they are supposed to ... it would have a been a killer drama... things were way too rushed in the last 2 eps (you will understand when u see) i sensed it in ep 14 :/ ... but it did not ruin the charm of the drama tho .... :).
YES IT IS A REAL NICE DRAMA , THE CHARACTERS ARE JUST LOVE LOVE LOVE.

This show works without bitchy or fake second leads, without a super mean villian. Nobody was the really bad guy, everyone had their reason to act how they did.
All characters grow as the story evolves. Not just the mean leads.
Yes, the female lead was annoying a few times but she was also strong. And the male lead was really cute and loveable.
This drama is nothing outstanding but if you are into rom-com´s with a lot of loveable and funny characters you should give it a try. I would recommend it for a rainy, boring weekend to pas the time nd put a smile in your face :)

At first I want to inform you that I am not a big fan of comedys but 'Hit the Top' is one of the Comedys I can't not like. Why? Because it is fresh, funny and sad at the same time.
Story: At first I thought: 'Oh no. Time travel...again?' This year there are a lot dramas with the theme time travel. Could it be the new Medical theme? A Popstar from the 90s travels due an accident to 2017 and meets his friends and new people. He wants to find out why the accident happened and what happened 23 years ago. The Story sounds fun and fresh. All in all it sounds like everything I don't like. But there was one Aspect in the Story I loved. A father and his son. After I watched Tunnel there isn't anything which could shock me. So the story gets a 8.0 from me.
Acting: The Acting was the best. Every single Actor did an Amazing job, so I want to pick some Actors I want to talk about.
Firstly I want to talk about Yoon Shiyoon. Honestly when he enlisted in the military I thought 'What? He is 30 years old?' In my Opinion he looks very young. He could be young than me. The last of his dramas I watched was Mirror of the witch (but I dropped it...). I completed Flower boy next door and I liked it. And I loved his Performances which could be a reason to pick up MotW again. Yoon Shiyoon played a 90s popstar who is arrogant, selfish but also very lonely. One day he time travels due an accident during a Typhoon. He finds himself 23 years later in 2017 and is found by three young people who befriend him (even though it does't look so). His Role (Yoo Hyunjae) has a big development in the whole story. I think it is the biggest out of all the characters. YSY did an amazing job. From the first until the last Episode I was amazed by his acting.
The Second Actor I want to talk about is Kim Minjae. I loved his Acting in TA but I loved his acting here more. His Rapping is amazing, too. I was a little bit sad, that he didn't rapped more in the drama, because I also like the OST he sang with Younha. KMJ plays Kim Jihoon who is a Trainee at a famous company for 3 years. His Bromance with Drill (BBs Taaeyangs older Brother plays the Role) is cute to watch and his Friendship with Wooseung is a good watch, too. Jihoon keeps his trainee Status a secret from his family, who think he is studying for the civil exam.
His best friend since years ago is Choi Wooseung who struggles to live a good life because she has to work part time and preapring for the civil exam which she can't seem to pass. Played by Lee Seyoung she doens't seem like a typical girl. In the Friendship with Jihoon she seems to be the boss. On the outside she is tough, but she is kind-hearted and sensible. Seyoungs Acting is very good but I didn't expect it otherwise because I loved her in LTT.
The last Actor I want to honour is Cha Taehyun. I watched him in variets shows and I watched him in My Sassy Girl. He is a very good Actor. I wanted to watch Producer but two of the other Actors are two of the ones I can't bear to watch...He acts as Lee Kwangjae, the manager of Hyunjae, who is the adoptive father of Jihoon. He takes care of Jihoon and his mother, is kind-hearted but unlucky with business. After the Accident he manages a bakery and works as the CEO of World Entertainment, but struggle because of financial issues. CTH is an amazing Actor and I hope he will be acting more again. Maybe in a weekender of KBS because the shows are most of the time very good.
The supporting Cast was good, too. Cha Eunwoo was a surprise for me, because he did a very good job as an arrogant top star (but the earring...v.v)
Music: The Music is very good. Kim Minjae feat. Younha and Kyunhyuns (Super Junior) If you are my favourite Songs. I recommend these two Songs, because they suits the drama the best.
I am sure I will watch this drama again in the future.

This is a drama that will melt your heart either by heart break or laughter. I was never really into dramas that had some to almost no romance, but I watched the first two episode when it first came out and I couldn't stop. I cried rivers and rivers. It's a beautiful drama.
The romance is slow but it's there. It'll get there, but if I'm being honest, there's not too much until later which I don't necessarily consider romance because it's between a married couple. But they count too.
Like most dramas, there will be some parts where it drags, I've been a drama addict for almost 10 years now, I've kinda learned which parts in a drama to skip or skim through. (Like those scenes where they just stare into space and "think" or when the director chooses to go through a flashback of memories for almost a whole episode)
This drama will keep you upbeat. The music does a great job helping that upbeatness. I found the antagonist a bit odd but his oddness makes him a unique and talented actor. :)
Love Lee Ha Nee (Honey - Miss Kore) She'd getting old now but she's a still a beauty. So far she's played respectable antagonistic roles, she does great.
Main character is so tall and handsome :)
This drama was a great success!
