Buttoned up doesn't mean emotionless, but bland might
There's a scene midway through this story where the FL lead remarks that Ji Soo-ho (played by Yoon doo-joon) speaks the language of silence. I thought that was beautifully put. He doesn't do Acting 101, he doesn't give a theatre-style performance, but you're never left in any doubt about his emotional state - his love for the FL, his pain at his family situation, his jealousy of the FL/2ML dynamic, and his bewilderment at lots of commonplace things.Sadly, I can't say the same about Kim So-hyun as Song Geu-rim. For someone who had no problem having full-on screechy meltdowns in the first episode, her interactions with the ML are curiously bland, pallid, and listless. Her affection for Soo-hoo was almost imperceptible. I think she was more interested in modeling lipgloss than performing.
Meanwhile, almost everyone else was overacting - though not always to the story's detriment. Both Yoon Park as Lee Kang and Kwak Dong-yeon as Jason gave us crazy, over the top and Oh Hyun-kyung as Nam Joo-ha was suitably villainous.
The story was fine, plain, nothing new. The side stories/secrets weren't really developed but weren't confusing. I wouldn't watch it again but I would like to see more dramas featuring some of the actors - particularly Yoon doo-joon and Kwak Dong-yeon.

not enjoyable
the female lead was ughhh!!!nothing happening throughout the drama to peak my interest..... all so mediocre.. not boring enough that i would leave it in between.. n neither good enough to keep my interest in it!!
in the beginning i waited for something major to happen.. but i realised in perhaps the 6th episode that nothing really is happening here ...n then i just waited for it to end........ just bcuz i dont usually leave dramas in between.. unless they r really really bad.
the female lead made the male lead appear pathetic.. when he was not.. she didnt even deserve love in her life.. n on top of that the actress playing the role is stone faced.. the same expression throughout the drama.. it was tiring to watch it.. the story + actress made me hate the FL.

As for the music, it doesn't stand out to me and is very unfitting for the mood sometimes.
Overall, its okay. Not my cup of tea but I can see why someone would watch it.

The story itself is nothing that fascinating, but it's enough to make you moved atleast a little bit. Altough it's not that deep, not that really interesting but you get that bitter feeling.
I got emotional not once through this drama. I wasn't really crying, but I got teary a few times.
But this drama brought me happiness, joy and warmness the most by just watching Song Geu Rim and Ji Soo Ho's story. They gives you really good vibes. They're young, "happy" and what is the most important one : they're protective toward each other.
I will rewatch it for the sweet moments, and of course for the moodmaker's, Gang Lee's moments!
You should give a chance to this drama if you want something light and romantic, not a story what makes you depressed and makes you think about it all day. :)

Story
Out of all the category, probably story was the weakest point of RR but it was nothing down right boring. It had its ups and down with lousy beginning, great development in the middle and really strong ending. Radio Romance is a heavily character driven drama I guess ,where main focus is on Ji So Hoo and Song Geu Rim. The whole story revolved around these two main leads and nothing much happens outside their circles. The drama was full of cliches which made me think that probably it was written by some armature or new writer. However, what I really liked about the story was there was almost no angst in the drama. No unnecessary break up, misunderstanding or family feuds. Radio Romance was true to it genre being a cute romantic comedy, though to me it seams more like a romantic healing drama.
Acting
Acting was the strongest part of this drama. All the characters i came across portrayed their parts really well along with the minor ones. The ones who stole the show were of course Yoon Doo Joon as Ji So Hoo and Yoon Park as Lee Gang. I've seen Doo Joon before in Lets eat series with his comic chops and on Splash splash love, but with this drama i guess he established himself as a main stream melo actor i guess? I loved how he portrayed the character Ji So Hoo who is suffering from insomnia and borderline depression without any over the top facial expression and subtle voice. I think I've become a fan for life now. Yoon Park on the other hand portrays the character of Lee Gang with both eccentricity and maturity. This could have been his break out role if this drama has gotten better rating. All other actors did well be it Kim So Hyun, Yura, Kwak Dong Yeon or Ha joon as handsome manager or Nam Joo Ha as Ji So Hoo's mother. I particularly like the young Ji So Hoo portrayed by Nam Da Reum. He has long and bright future ahead.
Music
I LOVED LOVED LOVED the music of this drama. It just fit so much to the surrounding of the drama and has great melody and hummable lyrics. The song STORY is playing on loop on my phone, laptop and iPod.
Re-watch Value
I think I am gonna re-watch this show at some point of time. Maybe when I am bored or some time has passed, I would definitely like to watch this drama again, probably all for the sake of my new found love for Yoon Doo Joon. He was just that great in Radio Romance.
Overall
As I've stated above in the beginning I really hope that people should just chill and take this drama as a light romantic comedy/healing drama. Don't expect anything and just go with the flow. It is maybe the drama which should be binge watched to get the whole essence of it. I would definitely recommend people to binge watch this drama once. I am sure you'll be able to get away with the whole drama in just one sitting only.

calm and sweet
honestly this drama was not to chaotic or stressful like that. It would not be like my go to drama but something you would watch if you didnt have anything to do. The pace is slow and you may not have the patience for it but its a good slow. it does get a bit faster but only towards the end. I loved the main couple once they got together they were adorable. There are some interesting moments but the show overall is not that thrilling if you are looking for a simple kdrama with barely stressful times then this is the one for you .Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Heartwarming drama
I just finished rewatched this drama, and I found that my 2nd time was much more enjoyable.For me, I can feel the chemistry between the main leads, and they were able to potray their characters really well. This is my 1st Yon Doo Joon drama and I cannot think any other actors than him as the main lead: the coldness, expression, body language was really perfect for his character in this drama. His eyes tells everything.
The story was cliche but it warms my heart..
Overall I would recommend this drama if you looking for heartwarming and healing drama..

Uncomplicated Drama
Radio Romance has an uncomplicated storyline. You'll love how it highlights the significance of "Radio" in our life and how a real family is in the life of a celebrity. I watched the first 3 episodes consecutively because I'm excited to know what's going to happen next. The male lead character played by Yoon Doo Joon depicts a different personality unlike other male characters in a drama. You'll love how he changes along the way and how their love story unfolds in a romantic way. Among other dramas that gives you a part where the male and female role would have a serious argument/misunderstanding then will reconcile afterwards, Radio Romance doesn't have that. And it's just cute and sweet how Doo Joon and So Hyun play along with their feelings, how simple yet endearing the male character is. So if you just want a sweet and romantic drama with a slice of family affair this is a much watch :) .Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
When I first saw this drama I squealed! Kim So Hyun is in this, she's kind of one of my favorites at the moment. The story looked promising too: your average love story, which you'd except to offer viewers many fluffy and cliche drama scenes that we all love. First of all, yes, there was an obnoxious amount of cliches that were honestly a bit too much. The storyline, quite unique and promising, turned out into a rich family feud that is almost like cancer in the Kdrama world. Second, there were many diverse characters in the drama, including an enthusiastic and cheerful female lead, a rich and arrogant male lead, the crazy but sweet second male lead, the mean CEO and many more. What I found the most dissatisfying and the reason why I quickly removed the drama from my favorites list was the lack of chemistry between the main couple. I didn't like Yoon Doo Joon's acting one bit! Why did the directors of this drama had to make him so possessive towards the end? Felt more of a psycho rather than a jealous male lead if you ask me. On the other hand, many people argued about Kim So Hyun being too young for her role, however, I though the opposite: she was spunky, cool and her fashion sense was amazing! So, without the strong chemistry and deeper meaning in a drama, I couldn't bring myself to say that this drama was brilliant. But surely, I'd rewatch it and give it some more though.
I personally knew that Radio Romance would surely be in my top drama list. But that didn't go as planned, I lost it as the drama was progressing downhill. Oh well, I still hope 2018 brings us something better.

I mainly chose to watch this drama because Doo Joon is in it but I was blown away by Kwak Dong Yeon, playing Jason, it was only a supporting role but the character was so intriguing & the way he acted was fabulous so I will definitely be looking at more of his work.
Overall, I liked the show, the plot was decent but became slightly repetitive at times. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be watching this again as it was nothing special despite the brilliant cast.
