Very sweet, very funny, and VERY SMART
This Drama was superb. Laugh out loud in so many places, but with real heart too. Most importantly, it was intelligent. Everything that happened made sense in its world. Characters behaved in ways that were credible for them, noone said or did anything stupidly out of character and there were no facepalm moments when the Drama caved to tropes to the lasting detriment of the show.The acting was as good as the writing. As much as I loved the leads, and the always excellent Park Jin Joo, I think the character/actor pairing that best encapsulated what made this such a remarkable show was Roh Jeong Eui's NJ. The character was fascinating, not at all a typical 2FL, and not a typical idol character either. Ms Roh delivered her part superbly, and I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for her in future.
The intelligence of the writing was also shown by the way it kept me guessing about the ending right into the final episode. Not only was it not clear how it would end, what was even more remarkable was that HOWEVER it ended, the ending would have felt right. I would not have felt cheated, frustrated or disappointed by whatever end transpired. Bravissimo!

SO GOOD
this drama definitely raised my drama standards. I love how chill it was, yet dramatic and suspenseful. it had a nostalgic vibe which I love, and the plot was very entertaining and even though it was serious at points, there was still a lot of comedy and banter scattered through the show which made it even more enjoyable. the actors played the parts perfectly and had lots of chemistry. they were funny to watch which you don’t see much anymore! this drama is one of my all time favorites I 1000% recommend it!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Good but not great
A good drama overall, it was entertaining, lot of funny moment especially at the begining. I like that the storyline is more mature and make us relate easily to the characters. Even if the fl character was annoying at some point. I like watching it and understand what went wrong in their relationship through lot of flasback from their past. I also like how it ended and for once the story didnt felt too long. Still at the end of the day it won't leave an unforgetable memory on me.✳️✳️✳️✳️✳️✳️✳️

This is such a feel good drama
I don't know why, but this is my all time feel good drama, that I want to watch when I'm sick,sad,tired or in need of something to lighten me up! I love this, I love story and the flow of it and all the characters in it ❤ no annoying parents, who always stick their nose into their childrens business, no unecasserary love triangle (there's a slight one, but it doesn't bother you most of the time ) Iwatch it , when ever there's nothing else to stream and I never get bored of it! So much love for all the actors and the story, they're telling!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Our Beloved Summer
Just finished watch this Drama for the 3rd time. It´s so beautiful , one of the best for sure !! Main couple with wonderfull chemistry, lots of good suporting actors/actresses , beautifull OST soudtrack and photogaphy.The way the Drama takes care of the subject "love" it´s real and well done
The way the jump 10 years in time it´s very well done too. In both period of time tha interest of the story keeps the same good level.
Kim Da Mi is a top actress any part of the world. Choi Wook Shik it´s the perfect mate and wins a lot playing role with her (like in "The Witch")

Our beloved summer
What we have: romance, enemies to lovers, cute,fun and sad scenes - so everything someone could want in kdrama. It is more a slow type, there is no crazy action or anything like that, maybe even healing type of drama.I am happy that we could see Kim Dami and Choi Woo Shik again in one drama - I believe they will have more projects together.
Choi Woo Shik's acting is my favourite, especially that one scene when he cried.
To sum up - it is light and "daily" drama.

A drama that tugs at your heartstrings
Our Beloved Summer chronicles the two lives of Choi Woong and Kook Yeon Soo as they meet in high school while filming a documentary, fall in love and then meet again 10 years later post a painful breakup and after having no contact for 5 years. The story alternates between present day and the past as you find out what happened between them and as there are new developments in their relationship in present day.While it is a romance drama, the show also really dived into both of their individual lives and what made the characters who they were... their upbringing, their family, the way that they present themselves to the world and how that was a result of their history. It's definitely an emotional show and I feel like I cried a lot but you do really get to know the characters and they all grow so much.
I liked the friendship between the two "Woongs" and it was so heartwarming seeing how Choi Woong welcomed Ji Woong into his family and pretty much gave him a home. I was NOT expecting the big plot twist / reveal near the end but my boyfriend predicted it so maybe I'm just not good at picking up subtle hints. Regardless I feel like the writers / director were very clever with how they chose to reveal things and with the flow of the show.
Even before I watched the show, I listened to Christmas Tree by V because it was so popular and it really did fit the show so well. Beloved Summer has probably one of the best OSTs I can recall in recent shows that I've watched.
I also liked NJ's character a lot. She was really fun and I looked forward to her scenes and how they added to the story. I also like that she was a decent person, despite being the second female lead and she didn't do anything shady.

Overrated Show
I watched it & finished it without liking the main leads(judge me as I have to have feelings for the oppa before the FL iykwim), much of the plot & loving the OST the most. I didn't go back to it so it's an overrated drama with nothing much memorable to go back to. Maybe it's just me but I don't rate it highly.OST & cinematography of this show is absolutely beautiful, more than the story itself.

I was not a fan of the manager/bar owner story line at all but the second leads and other assorted characters grew on me, especially NJ.
