a love so cheesy and soft
i did not like this korean remake at all. the development of their love story felt extremely rushed, and the overall plot was too soft, fluffy, cheesy, and just cringe in my opinion.i did not find this series interesting at all and only continued watching it to see if the main leads will end up together or not. i usually find those 'cheesy' and cliche kdramas interesting, for example a business proposal (which i rated 10/10), but from this one i am highly disappointed.
overall, i wouldn't really recommend watching this kdrama as it's pretty plain, maybe just as a time-killer.

Not bad adaption
This is my first time watching a Korean series. First time watching a series that I have already watched previously in a different language. Although it is an "adaption" to the Mandarin one of the same name, I don´t think we should judge that harshly nor compare it so strictly with each other. Both series have their own specialty, uniqueness and awesomeness. I find the Korean version of A Love So Beautiful quite interesting. The casts did quite a good job, although some of the quirkiness you find in the Mandarin one you cannot find it in this one. Overall, the storyline is quite similar. I really love the songs paired for this series and especially the wedding dance. But, nonetheless, great job!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Rushed
I didn't see the chinese version so i won't be able de compare.This drama is alright for a love triangle drama. Not extraordinary but not bad either.
I would say the overall result a pass.
I liked the short format. But i might have been a disavantage.
Some characteres are underdevelopped . For example, elements are introduced to explain a bit a of the ML's back story but they are not used. As if the director cut those part due to a lack of time.
I suppose that the FL should funny , clumsy and adorable. Well i only remember her as havinga two-emotion: cringy - overly excited.
I enjoyed that the story didn't focus just on their high school year. However i feel that more time could have been spend on their "adulthood". Once again the story was rush.
As the story shows the character aging, the castings is really important. Yet i felt that the FL actress was too hold to make me believe she was a highschooler.

Nothing I have ever watched or probably ever will watch could call me single more than this series
If you're looking for your next cute romance kdrama, this is the oneEvery episode definitely brought me a lot of laughs and there were only a couple tears along the way :')
The one way I reckon this drama rly stood out was character likability - I'm usually pretty harsh and extremely picky when it comes to characters I like, but this was probably the only time I've come to rly like all of the main cast, even side characters too, (Except for the 2nd lead ofc, don't hate me pls, I just always hate the 2nd lead character, I can't avoid it)
But overall its definitely one I'd recommend, a great casual light hearted watch :))

Started up bad but ended up good.
For someone who watched the original version, I can't help myself but to compare. But in this review, I'm going to limit the comparison and mainly focus in this Korean version.First of all, as a fan of Kim Yohan since PDX101, I'm so happy that finally he made his acting debut. But tbh, his acting is kinda stiff and confusing. I understand that it is his first acting but the viewers need more than that. Poor acting really affects the whole show.
Same with So Juyeon. I love her so much in Dr. Romantic but his role here is cringe and look like she's forcing to be cute and clumsy which didn't really work.
Yep Hoe Hyun's acting on the other hand, is commendable. He's cute and sexy at the same time. Wu Busong and Woo Dae Sung, you both match and did your role perfectly.
Then we have Jung Jin Hwan. Unlike the C-version, I don't find him cute, adorable, and funny. I'm not really happy but still he did well too.
The good thing about this remake is how they change the episode of Kang Ha Young not falsely admitting that she is the one who gives the medicine to her depressed classmate. In the Chinese version, I was really annoyed by that scene.
The first part of the story (during their highschool days) is pretty boring and plain. The only reason I keep watching is to finish what I started. Thankfully, the moment they enter University, the story is getting good and I'm glad to see that progress.
The music really fits the concept, I like it more than the remake of the drama itself.
Overall, I give this a rating of 7.5 over 10. If only they manage to be consistent from the very start, maybe I can give them a higher rating points than this. I'm sorry Yohan but I'm just trying to be objective and hopefully on your next drama project, I can see your improvement. A Love So Beautiful Korean Remake is cute and sweet but not really memorable.

A huge serotonin boost
This was so cute. This made me smile (and cringe) the most of all the dramas I watched.Please check out my bio for the standards of a 10/10 drama. And a disclaimer: just because it's a web drama and an idol actor, my mind already had prejudice against it.
This was such a happy feel-good drama. I literally had no negative and crying points in this drama. The story was problem-free, simple, and was carried mostly by comedy. There was little to no unnecessary drama. One thing I love is that all the characters had a happy ending, which not many web dramas or dramas can deliver. I know this was originally a Chinese drama, but I can say for sure that I enjoyed this one a lot more (no offense~).
The cast was amazing. I can say for a fact that the female lead carried this drama, though the other characters contributed their fair share. The cast was perfect for their role, but I still can't rave enough how perfect JuYeon was for the role. I actually came to support Yohan ex-X1 and WeI member, but I can say for sure I stayed for both the leads.
Lastly, this is the best thing about short dramas: the music. The OST sung by SinB was such a bop that I even added it to my daily playlist.
Overall, I would definitely RECCOMEND this especially for times when you are feeling down.

Cringy
This drama is so cringyThis is the first drama where I just can't finish it omg it's awful
This drama is a spin off of the Chinese drama from 2017 (which I have not watched) so maybe my opinion doesn't count since I've not watched it but for the korean spin off I'm sorry its awful
The female lead is annoying and cringe I just wanted to slap her, she comes across as a stalker and its not cute
The male lead is so moody and dry
I really liked the 2nd male lead he really tried everything for the lead but she was so stupid and bruh I can't HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE YOU'RE IN A LOVE TRIANGLE!!!!!!
The 2nd female lead had a big crush on one of the teachers and I think he liked her too she was underaged bruh don't romanticize pedophilia

I really don't wanna be mean, but at some times I thought that the female actress who plays Shin Sol-i is too old for her character or that the other cast members look too young. To me, it's obvious that she's not the same age as the rest of the cast (since they're supposed to be from the same year) and that bothered me little. But, I do know that she's literally perfect for the role and her smile is really contagious, which is one important aspect of Shin Sol-i. She just appears older.....
The acting was okay.... I mean it's obvious that they're acting/it didn't really feel natural, but I get that vibe from all cheesy dramas. The music on the other hand, BOMB. Sooo cute. It added so much to the drama and I couldn't help but smile when I heard the music coming in.
I won't be able to make a comment on if the Chinese version is better, since I didn't watch it. Although Shen Yue (who plays "Shin Sol-i" in the Chinese version) is really a sweet person, so check out the original drama too.

Um romance clichê para passar o tempo.
Adorei o drama, me deu saudade da escola, acompanhar o crescimento deles é muito bacana. Eu shippei errado mas consciente disso kkkk. Dae Sung tudo para mim sim! Amei o casal secundário, me apaixonei muito por eles. Senti falta de alguns acontecimentos que o episódio terminava e partia pra outra cena o próximo. Decidi ver o Cdrama e estou gostando bastante! Foi uma delícia acompanhar ele, adorei o elenco <3É mais um dorama para passar o tempo, você vai rir bastante e sentir um quentinho no coração.

Not the best of K Drama
Cute , mildly enjoyable , light hearted , easy to watch if you have nothing better to watch , but far too long .The teenage years dragged on to the point that SoJu Yeon ( good in Lovestruck in the city ) became quite boring although kind hearted and well meaning . As to Kim Yo Han he never really grew up , he looked the same at 30 as he was at 15 . They did not managed to age him or make him look more mature . And then the story jumps and the adult years went at a pace without any real character development . The reason why she broke up with him was badly managed and I lost patience with the whole lot of them but continued watching to see how they would end it . Only after 23 episodes most of the issues were tied up . so not the best of dramas but some good acting from the cast and the dance at the wedding was probably the best scene of the series !!

The cuteness overload saved the show
This show has a great story of staying by someones side and by being nice to them trying too make someone fall for you. Not a typical depiction, but a really refreshing and pure approach to it.Unfortunately this show lacked also quite a bit. The show obviously tried to mush to much story within to little time which made a lot of the minor story-lines look unfinished and rushed. They tried to fix this by not putting to much depth in the dialogues, which made them cringe and superficial.
Ok then how did you give this show still a 9 out of 10?
Well the main couple with an huge emphasis on the Lead Actress was unconditionally and ingeniously CUTE! I lost count how many times I almost perished from cuteness-overload.
The lead actress So Ju Yeon was just perfect for the role. She really carried the whole show for me. And also Kim Yo Han, whose character at first lacked any emotion but gradually joined So Ju Yeon in being overly cute!
Giving a show a 9 mostly because It was way too cute, might seem silly. But I stand fully behind this and hope to see more of So Ju Yeon's cuteness in the future.

Apaixonante ou melante?
Como uma pessoa que teve a experiência de um dos primeiros doramas assistido ter sido Um Amor Lindo Demais, é impossível não fazer comparações. Portanto vamos lá.Para começo temos uma história sadia e suave, com direito ao bom clima amoroso e nenhum pouco tóxico de início. Podemos ver também um protagonista menos sério (pasmem, este homem sorrir) até mais amoroso e parece sentir amor e não possessão como vimos na nossa querida versão chinesa. Se você, como eu, ficou apreensiva com qualquer atitude de Jiang Chen (oh homem pra fazer merda) fique tranquilo, aqui o personagem é muito mais sereno e sabe demonstrar seu carinho pela prota.
Partindo pra a protagonista, a insistente, persistente e sem um pingo de amor próprio, sim, estamos falando de Shin Sol Yi, eu sinceramente não vi tanta diferença nas personalidades das prota nas duas versões, ambas vivem pelo seu amor apenas.
Agora partindo para os personagens secundários, assim como na chinesa eles continuam sendo uns amores (e sim, você vai continuar shippando errado), também não sentir muita mudança na personalidade nas duas versões.
Pra resumo, aqui a história é mais leve, mais "café com leite", mais tranquila. Eu sinceramente, sentir falta do impacto que algumas cenas me trouxeram na versão chinesa, nessa versão eu raramente senti ou até mesmo não senti a costumeira extrema vergonha alheia, aquela raiva de matar e aquela vontade de chorar como se alguém que amasse muito tivesse falecido de uma forma horrível. Tudo o que eu senti foi: amor, amor, vergonha meu paiii, mais amor e "para fi, melhora isso aí!", apenas.
Eu adorei o drama, ele é bem legal de ver, mas ele é apenas isso - legal, não acrescenta muito na sua vida. Porém se você só quer ver algo leve, ele é ótimo pra entreter, super indico.
