I think that this drama was one of the most well-rounded ones I have watched. I feel like I flew through the episodes. I was watching the first episode and then it's like I finished the drama. It just went by so fast because it just felt so enjoyable watching every single episode. This is not a drama with like murder or somebody trying to kill somebody, it does have quintessential love triangle and also somebody who's trying to backstab somebody else. Really you watch it for the characters and their stories and you become involved in their Triumph and their defeat, and you root for them and hope they make it in their life. I read somebody else's comment I think about how the writers were a little bit of trolls in this drama, and I couldn't agree more LOL. They were trolls in the best possible way. This drama really made me laugh it made me cry sometimes but really was just super enjoyable to watch and I really recommend you taking like a day or 2 days to binge watch it all if possible because this was just a joy to watch. The couple would just keep me smiling their relationship with each other was just so much fun to watch and just made me so happy LOL I was sad that it ended. I definitely recommend you taking the time to watch this great drama.

How to describe my love for this series in words? How? Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo was a breath of fresh air. It was refreshing, comfortable, adorable, heartwarming, hilarious, and I just felt myself get so attached to the characters and story.

It has so many lovely messages and takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions staying consistently good each episode. The acting was beautiful and the characters are extremely relatable. The story focused on a variety of things without being overdramatic or all over the place. It also really delved into the characters background stories without focusing too much on one lead over the other.

You will not only adore main leads Kim Bok Joo and Joonhyung but also sob over their amazing chemistry. You will love the weightlifting team, family, and friends. You will find yourself laughing so hard, smiling over fluff, and getting upset all in the right scenes.

I would find myself watching this drama over again for sure it just made me smile through every single episode ;_;

Watch if:
You LOVE fluff/cuteness
You like slice of life pacing
You like awesome female leads
You like non-jerky/aggressive and adorable male leads
COMEDY "WHAT?" (you'll understand the reference if you watch)
You love feeling emotional
You love heartwarming + family scenes

Don't watch if:
You don't like coming of age/everyday/youth dramas
(I can't think of any other reason not to watch)

Okay... So this is the first time I write a review in my whole life, but I really felt the need to do it about this drama
I just want to say that I'm completely speechless. Everything this drama brought to us, every episode, was like a fresh wind in the hottest days. I think I speak for a lot of people, but this drama had that special gift to put a big smile on my face in the end of EVERY episode (not the mention the last one, because damn I became a happier person bc of that).
I just want to say, and I mean it, this drama is unique, is special, is a masterpiece. Once you start watching it, it becomes like drug or something, and you want more and more... Really
A big big big thank you to the director, the producers, the cast, everything was PERFECT! Thank you so much to make me begin this new year with a huge smile on my face!
I hope this drama won't get forgotten in the next years, because they deserve all the attention, it has definitely became my favourite drama and I really hope it inspires people to create more dramas like this one!
Everything was beyond perfect!

I actually pushed this drama back for a couple of weeks because I thought the premise seemed like any other school drama, but I promise it's so much better. There were no villains or dramatic tropes, just our homegirl Bok Joo growing up and gaining confidence. The male lead was adorable and had such a great personality, because I'm sure we've all had enough cold, stoic male leads. The characters were written so well and I fell in love with every single one of them, even the second female lead and that's pretty rare.

The story was really well paced and was relatively light but definitely kept me interested. It was such a cute story that kept a smile on my face the entire time. This drama broke out of a lot of tropes that dramas normally have. I love the fact that Joon Hyung was WILLING to go to a therapist to talk out his problems, and that he actually has an aunt, uncle, and brother that took him in, cared for and loved him. There was no sibling rivalry though it may seem like that from the plot description, and because the brothers were so supportive of each other which was extremely refreshing.

This couple had so so so much chemistry. They felt REAL and GENUINE and I got so many feels. The second lead female Song Shi Ho actually had a lot of depth to her character. She wasn't just a jealous ex-girlfriend there to cause problems for the main couple, and she definitely showed a lot of growth as the drama progressed.

I loved the soundtrack (esp. Parts 1 & 3) and I still have them replaying on my phone.

I thoroughly enjoyed this drama and wholeheartedly recommend this well developed, genuine, and adorable drama.

Oh my, what a wonderful show!

The things I love about this show:
- Kim Book Joo herself and her overall adorable character
- Jeong Joon Hyung and the way he was madly in love with her no matter what happened
- These two as a couple - sooooooo sweet!
- the fact that the ex-girlfriend is not a total bitch but rather a really nice girl one could understand

Overall a wonderful drama with great characters, a nice chemistry between the two lead, and good life messages :) Thank you to those who created this drama!

This is one of the few dramas that is truly a rom/com from beginning to end. Most dramas today lose the com around episode 8 or 9 but this one was well thought out and used several good cameos to keep the comedic moments going throughout the story. I don't normally give out 10's to a drama. I'm very selective and it has to be really good and make me want to watch it over to even be in the running for a 10. I have to say that this drama is a 10. One of the biggest draws for this drama is the story. When you hear "sports drama" it's almost always something glamorous or popular like basketball, soccer, or baseball, but you would never think about weightlifting, much less women's weightlifting. Sung Kyung and the other actresses do a tremendous job at portraying a group of female athletes that are not all thin and beautiful but still have the same feelings and needs. All of the actors really portrayed their characters well and had great chemistry. The main couple, and the sub couples were all a joy to watch. But be warned, this is a binge drama that can make you lose track of time when you start it.

i love love love this movie. it was kind of accidental when i decided to watch it, because after watching strong woman, i feel like this need to be watched so i can compare. Well, it's easy for me to say that this one is better than the strong woman. it portrayed real life struggle of teenagers or students. it fills with hope, friendship,family and life goals. this is really a good drama, very encouraging and it has lots of positive influence in it. it was really hilarious too, a student's life. this is absolutely a must watch.

I love this drama
at first, I excited because there will be Jongsuk as a cameo when I read the description.
I watch it and both of the main actors are lovable
the story completely showing our daily life and I really like how the writer make each character so strong.
the meaning that the writer try to deliver also completely delivered to me (the youth life about friendship, love, career, future)
I hope you guys enjoy this drama just like me. ^^

This was my first Korean drama, and I really enjoyed it! I didn't actually know much about it, I just saw a few gifs on Tumblr and decided to check it out. So here's my first review:

Story:
I liked the story because it was different. Yes, there was romance, but it was also about the female lead realising her career goals and working to accomplish them. In fact, I was a bit surprised by how late the romance plot actually began. Also, I liked how it was set at a sports university. The problem I have with YA series set at some sort of school is that they're all quite similar. The fact that the story took place at a sports uni and we got to see the dynamics between different students within that setting made it interesting for me.

Cast:
I loved them! I didn't know any of them, but now I'm a fan of both Lee Sung Kyung and Nam Joo Hyuk! I hope to watch more of their work. I thought Lee Sung's acting was amazing. She really played her character well, and her facial expressions are both humorous and adorable. Nam Joo Hyuk is just as adorable haha, and he definitely gave me the warm fuzzies with his coy grins. Although these two were my favourites, I really liked Lee Joo Young as well. Mostly because I could relate to her character more, she was the voice of reason in their crew lol.

Music:
I watched this a while ago, so I don't particularly remember any of the songs. That's why I gave it a 7. Unlike other dramas like Goblin, whose OST I don't think I could ever forget, I think this OST didn't have any particular stand out songs. Then again, I may just have a terrible memory.

Overall:
Good characters! Good story! Very nice, heart-warming drama to watch! ^^

I love to see unconventional storylines. Korean dramas have really come a long way. Having Lee Sung Kyung's character play a professional weightlifter really pushes the envelope on typical Korean Drama themes. Watching the main character grapple with her desire to excel in her sport and appearing feminine proved to create great character development. The love story between Lee Sung Kyung and Nam Joo Hyuk's characters is sooooo very sweet. The cast is pretty young, so acting is still pretty green. I think it fits the tone of the drama through. Overall, this drama is pretty "SWAG"!! You should certianly try it!

This is definitely a drama that quickly becomes binge-worthy. I finished it in 2 days because I could not get enough of the main couple, they are so cute! The story and characters are very easy to relate to because a lot of this drama is centered around experiencing love for the first time and how to go from friends to lovers.

I personally had seen Nam Joo Hyuk in Scarlet Heart and I didn't even realize he was the same actor until a few episodes in. He is absolutely phenonemal in Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo for several reasons. He played Joon Hyung so well, and he became a very funny and lovable male lead that I could literally not take my eyes off of. His acting with the female lead was very natural and realistic and when he expressed any kind of emotion, he really put his all into it and he surprised me.

Lee Sung Kyung is one of those actresses that I had seen previously in another drama, but she was not a main character so I didn't pay much attention to her. In this however, she shines brilliantly as the main protagonist and was a joy to watch her character develop and grow during her college experience.

Overall, I would highly recommend this light and romantic drama because it's full of great music and comedy that I haven't seen in a while. It also does not drag at all, and it kept me interested from beginning to end.

A while back, I watched Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo. I didn't exactly have a high bar set for it when I started it, but it was a thoroughly delightful series. It was funny and touching. The leads had great chemistry. It was a the kind of school based love story drama that seem to be a common theme. And it was entirely engaging. Lee Sung Kyung as the lead, Kim Bok Joo, was wonderful and poignant and funny in the role. I loved that her character was brash and loud and uniquely herself. And Nam Joo Hyuk as rising star swimmer Jung Joon Hyung was everything I wanted him to be. And he loved her thoroughly as she is and didn't seek to change her. Plus his sub story was heart wrenching. I highly recommend this show.
