My Review

I read a lot of comment and review about this movie and i had been hesitating a lot to watch this movie or not. People said that they cried a lot while watching this drama and i'm not a fans of sad movie. But i gave it a try and so glad that i did ;) I like how strong the friendship in this drama and how they stuck together through thick and thin. Although, not all of the things in this movie might happen in real life, i learnt that we must choose every decision carefully so we have less regret.

My Review

This drama tells the story of school life, how to hanging on despite of hardship, and youth. For me, its a so so drama because the storyline is great but too intensive. Sometimes i felt tired when i watched it and the ending isn't satisfying enough for me. I wish there's more epilogue at the end of story.

My Review

I have a mix feeling about this drama because in the beginning this drama is really good with unique storyline and funny actor/actress and i cant wait until the next ep releases. But, i lost my interest after 20's eps. I dont know why but its getting less interesting and too easy to guess.

My Review

This lately i've been bored with usual storyline and too much annoying character. Gratefully, i found this drama randomly and i just fell in love with all of characters in this drama including the supporting actor. This drama has a decent storyline. I like that there's no complex problem and pretty much focusing to the main lead story. You guys should watch it and have a great time :)
