“That summer was ours to keep.”
THIS WAS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL AND COMFORTING DRAMA- It made me cry, laugh and rethink important topics of life. It was such a meaningful drama that thought me a lot about family, friendship, the hardships of life and how some things no matter how important are for us at the moment and even in the future sometimes aren´t meant to be more than just beautiful memories. It gave me the opportunity of seeing the growth of Na Hee Do which made me appreciate life and being a teenager, it also made me feel so close to the characters because they showed real emotions and real struggles that we viewers can relate to. On top of all that this drama isn´t just another drama that tells only a love story but tells us so many teachings from being persistent to empath, to never giving up or to even feeling ok with giving up as hard and pressured as it may seem. I know the end may have upset some people but to me, it made everything so much real, the only thing I can point out that should have been done better was the answering of some questions that were left without a response, they just ended it there. Aside from that it really didn´t change my overall opinion on this drama, that it was splendid and a 10/10 easy, I really recommend everyone watching it and to welcome one of the best experiences ever because it will not disappoint.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
An expected review
I have wanted to watch this k-drama because it featured two of my favourite actors and I am happy I finally did it. At first, I thought it was going to be a simple and relaxing love story but how wrong I was, it was so much more complex and touching. Full of emotions it touched on topics such as youth, growing up, changing, love, friends, family, loneliness, trusting and abandoning issues and even not as clear depression. I am not gonna lie sometimes it was overwhelming but the way they made it so realistic and relatable for any class age was one of the reasons that made me like this k-drama so much. Another reason was the action was so raw and beautiful again made me love the drama all the characters had a purpose to represent something in my view even if it was only for comedic relief, the plot was interesting and how everything got wrapped up was so satisfying. And I really recommend everyone to give this drama a try it´s worth it, they made me giggle and laugh through it all but also cry and be angry, the cinematography, the ost, the production and the actors collectively made this a 10/10.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Mixed feelings
I decided to give a chance to this drama at 2 AM because of a well-written comment on tik tok and thank god I did that.The story was so interesting, unique, captivating and above all passionate. To be honest, if the cause was because I was tired or because of the fantastic work of the actors as well as the emotional plot line I don´t know but I do know that by the time I finished the first episode I was shedding tears as I did in other more eps.
Although, this emotional side of the drama can yes make you fall in love with their love story but can also make you feel frustrated because things aren´t going the way you want or sad because you feel like the characters deserve so much more or even confused since the time-lines sometimes are a little blurry and you can´t really tell what´s happening.
I can say that aside from the good things and the bad things that are part of a good drama, this one had some aspects that I have doubts about the execution that is more based on a personal opinion such as the ending. I have a lot of bad things to say about open endings, I dislike them with a passion because they have been used more especially in good movies which leads to me getting heartbroken, as usual.
I don´t want to imagine what happened I want to see, to testimony their ending, to their deserved happiness after so much trouble and chaos along the episodes. I can accept in some dramas or movies and even admit that it matches but in this one personally it was very well made but it hurt much more and maybe that was the point, could have predicted the drama was doomed to have this ending they never catch a break from tears, STILL one more reason to at least give us and shows us how after all of that both could have a good ending living together and jun jie happy too and all the others.
Moreover, don´t make this a reason to not watch Someday or One Day because it´s really worth your time, you won´t be bored nor regret watching it, because at the end of the day it´s such a beautiful story with a lot of learnings but also action, mystery and of course love.

What a roller coster...
This drama started really strong for me, I was enjoying it so much, the plot was intriguing, the cast was so well picked and it made me glued to the screen. However the rest of the drama was kinda disappointing, and didn´t live for my initial expectations, to be fair is not like it was bad and maybe it isn´t just my style, but the sudden plot twists and the 'backs and forth' left me annoyed and the drama became at some point all of the same, you could even prevent what was going to happen because of how predictable it was, it just gave the impression like it wasn´t well thought or planned and that the actor just did whatever it came to his mind with no logic whatsoever. Aside from that, it had the right portion of funny moments but also dramatic ones, it was an interesting idea of a story and overall worked pretty well with some gaps in the execution.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
