Great production, great actors but the storyline is just something that I can't get on with.
The suspense is so high! You just want to keep on watching.
broooooo...
What an ending. Despite leaving a lot of things still open, I can't help but be in awe. They really know how to tell a story with just enough information, without overextending.
How Myeong-Hee died sucked and felt like it wasn't entirely necessary. But the execution of the story was amazing, the way they connected everything and how they built the story up and around that is just amazing. Wow. Great story! Very sad but so well done!
There were two instances where I just repeatedly shouted out loud: "pleasegiveahugpleasegiveahugpleasegiveahug". The first was when Soo-Ryun met Myeong-Hee before she left for Seoul and the second was when Hee-Tae saw Kyung-Soo at the police station in present dag. And a golden third one was honestly the scenes from Myeong-Hee and her father. Bro, that was so sad. All those hidden acts of love and miscommunications. T_T
The only things that I'm a little sad about are certain loose ends. Like Kyung-Soo, I would've loved to see him resolve his guilt and see Hee-Tae help him. Since Hee-Tae experienced a similar situation when Kyung-Soo's girlfriend fell into a coma. I honestly thought that Hee-Tae was writing the letter at the end for Kyung-Soo, but it's all good.
This drama already gave me so much more than I could've asked for. Like References from previous episodes that the characters would quote, the writing was outstanding! Also redemption arcs for the side characters looking at the stepmother, Jung-Tae and the Lee family. Not to forget historical events. I haven't checked the accuracy of it, but without this k-drama I wouldn't have known about what happened in May 1980 in Gwangju.
Lastly, the depth of the characters and their connections with other characters were great!
The characters were in my opinion well written and they had good backstories. And with even multiple side characters we got to see their growth throughout the story. That's something I really appreciate, they did not only focus on the growth of the main characters but also of the side characters.
The romance was also great, It felt a lot like a Romeo Juliet, forbidden love trope. Sadly the friendship between Soo-ryun and Myeong-Hee didn't feel that significant in the story. While Jung-Tae and Myeong-Soo's friendship definitely caused growth to both boys, which was great to see.
I could go on for a lot longer, but I'm gonna leave it at this. I enjoyed the story quite a lot! There were certain things that I would've liked to be different, but I'm more than glad that I watched it. Would recommend!
This episode was banging. There were multiple times where I thought the episode would end, but they just kept surprising me. (I'm glad!) I really liked how they resolved so many issues. In one episode we got to see how all 4 characters dealt with the frustrating circumstances. And they also resolved them, partially! It's great!
I loved the understanding and bravery from Lee Soo-ryeon and how she still managed to take responsibility and resolve the conflict between the two leads. (and finally start acting like herself again!)
And seeing their true emotions during all this was heartbreaking but so well done. Funny enough they all felt guilty for what happened. In situations like this it's very hard, there's not solely one person who is to blame. All of them had contributed to it one way or another, we're all flawed als humans. Learning to forgive each other and letting go, will not only help the relationships with others but also with themselves. I hope that they manage to resolve it and be able to rebuild their friendship.
Not only that, they also went and builded up to the actual cliffhanger. This episode was great, I loved it. Great one to end the night with!
I loved the webtoon! So glad they adapted it to a j-drama. Would love a anime as well, but so far so good. I like the casting for the characters and their interactions have been great! It's been a while since I first read the webtoon but I can't wait to see how it's gonna turn out! Hopefully the wholesomeness remains.
Might be a little influenced through youtube shorts. But this kdrama is starting off so strong! Great first two episodes, it definitely grabs your attention! How is this so good?! They really know the exact things to use to make the story interesting. I’m intrigued to see how this story continues! I do hope it will not focus too much on superstitions, I’m not so fond of that direction.
A very nice k-drama! I loved how they included a lot of side characters and that they all contributed to the story! It was a really nice feel-good watch for me. Gyeo re's backstory as others also noted, did feel a bit longer than necessary. I would've liked it to be even more focused on the hospice and the characters. Aside from that, I really enjoyed this show! I also loved how they still included the side characters even after their sideplot was over!
I must say I really disliked how they all kept it a secret when they found out that man woke up. And the fact they took almost no action or were almost not worried that he would cause any harm and bring the hospice in danger. Besides that I do like how we slowly learned about Ha Jun-kyung's past! And I have to admit I haven't stopped watching it, so everything aside it's pretty enjoyable and the characters are really well-written and acted! Usually k-drama's start to fall a little bit off around this time, but for now I'm still very intriqued!
They did our boy Maizi dirty. He just wanted a redemption arc.
The sarcasm in this show is just amazing.
Dong-jin is too good, man. The fact that he went to director Kim not to confront him about the contract but instead to check in on him; to see how he was doing. The patience that he has with literally everyone, no. This man deserves better.
The friendships in this show are great! As well as on the side of Woo-Joo and on Dong-jin's side. They also bring that comedic relief that makes this show quite enjoyable.
Wait, My Youth takes you on a trip during these 24 episodes. They’re mostly focused on the romantic relationships with their hobbies far in the background.
I really enjoyed the first half of the show but after a while it starts to drag a bit. Mostly by circling around the romance of the main characters.
It was okay. The friendship dynamic was very nice and fun to watch, would’ve liked to see more. What I did really like was the love story of Meili, the opposite I would say for that from Yating.
In the end it was enjoyable to pass the time. Characters are fine, plot was neutral/okay.
What an amazing series! Move to heaven is about family and dealing with loss. It tells the story in such a heartwarming and touching way, which reminds me a lot of the anime Violet Evergarden! Each person has their own story and that makes everyone unique and special.
I enjoyed it a lot, I’m glad I got to watch it! Hopefully a season 2 will come and fill my eyes with tears again! I also hope we get to know the side characters some more!
Loved this episode! Definitely my favourite so far!
What a beautiful version of a coming of age story! While it still has it’s cliché’s, they managed to make it just enough and not too much. I very much enjoyed this movie and it’s story.
It made me think a lot of the c-movie ‘Our Times’. Both very memorable and beautiful coming of age stories!
The reenactment of the love confession was so cute!!
And throughout this kdrama they continuously used certain quotes or moments from previous episodes. I really enjoyed thinking back at previous episodes!
I sense the ship slowly coming along :eyes:
I’m loving the development in all of the characters and the growth of their relationship together! It’s so wholesome to see!
I love how everything is slowly unraveling for the viewer and the characters.
The multiple storylines at once does feel slightly a lot at once for me. Nonetheless all of the stories are quite interesting and I’m quite invested.
Sadly not all the stories seem to be connected with each other. If it was, the in between switches from storylines wouldn’t bother me as much.
I still really enjoy the slow build up that this kdrama has! It’s really keeping me on my toes! Also quite enjoying the couple, if I must say so myself :D
My mom has a lot of reoccurring back pain and just like Ban-do, my dad also keeps massaging sometimes until he falls asleep. It’s a very sweet little thing that they added. Goes to show that there’s so many different ways to show your love for another.
I’ve become a whole waterfall, this kdrama.
What a movie! I feel like this movie deserves a way higher percentage than is given here with 61%.
The movie tackles very complicated topics and it definitely lets you think. Just like the two main characters who go against each other in the courtroom.
But seeing it from a third perspective really made me think about who's in the right and who's in the wrong. At the end of the movie, the two characters concluded that there is a lot of grey spacing in this world. Though the ending was not particularly a happy ending for any of the characters, it creates a very interesting topic to ponder about.
The relationship between the two main characters during this movie felt really realistic and was enjoyable to follow. The way how this case influenced them and had certain things that bound them together. Kept me thinking about the case throughout the movie.
The duration of the movie did feel a bit long, but it was nonetheless a very interesting movie.
I found this review that goes more into detail about this movie.

This episode was amazing! Favourite one so far! I must admit it was quite cute and wholesome.
Not so fond of the story having second lead love interests, but holding on. Since all the rest is quite funny! Also interested in maybe getting to know the friend group more!
This episode was everything!!
It was so wholesome to see how Kwon Jung-Rok had people that supported him apart from Oh Yeon-Seo.
That side story with Kwon Jung-Rok and the boss was so wholesome, and created more depth to both of those characters.
It’s nice to see how he also has a security net and isn’t alone in this.
That side plot with the dad was so cute!!
I feel bad that Ma Ha is being forced to imitate someone else. It’s just so cruel. I am loving Tea Party tho they’re really cute together!!
I have to say I'm quite proud of Chen Yichuan this episode.
From experience I know that what he did was not easy so I'm very proud and very eager to see him grow more as individual!
Also not gonna lie I'm glad that we can put this rivalry behind us. xD
Ok ok I have to say this was the most frustrating episode from the 4 I watched.
I’ll spare the ranting but Chen Yi Chuan’s face was just so punchable this episode. I can’t. The whole situation felt very frustrating to me regarding the lack of communication and that that was the reason it all started. But oh well.
The main leads did kind of redeem this episode for me. They really keep on growing on me as individuals and as a ship!
