Worth the watch
Cons1. The first 15-20 mins is seriously boring and super lame. I don't see the point at all and could have been shorten to focus on the main storyline. So if you feel the same, don't give up, the show will get better.
2. Close to zero common sense, or possibly too complex for mere human like me to understand the concept.
I still don't get the ending even though its a good closure. The part of some thing doesn't change even after 10000 years but it ended up differently.
3. Whyyyy Vivian movies always has such an ending why???
4. You probably need to know a bit of Buddhism about Karma and reincarnation to understand the movie.
5. The antagonist storyline is a little......weird.
Pros
1. Very interesting main storyline. I wish they would have explore it further on it rather than spending it on lame epilogue of love God thingy
2. Story twist
3. Very tear-jerking mainly because awesome acting by both main roles and really good love storylines.
4. Great music
5. Some parts are really soft fluffy and really funny (not lame)
6. I absolutely adore the dog acting!!
Overall this is not a perfect movie but again who is actually perfect? There is loophole here and there and questioning about everything, why this why that. Its weird but also very worth to watch movie. I am still giving solid 8. If you are a fan of Vivian movie, this is ? to watch list. The romance is soooo soft and fluffy.

I think one of the reviewer "angelvsdevil" actually sums up pretty much everything. This is somewhat comedic dumb drama that you cant or shouldnt take too seriously (although the story picks up better mid the drama).I have to say I myself wasnt AT ALL A FAN of this genre, i drop this weeks back on ep2 but because I have plenty time decided to pick this back via netflix recommendation. Once you get used to the exaggeration and comedy, somehow I get sucked to binge and loving it.
The whole impression just reminds me of multiple drama parodies. WL gives me a little like WWX of untamed parody (even the look at times), the budding of WL and HY reminds me of untamed parody, the wolves story which is F4 meteor garden parody. also O2O ost cracks me up hard. Damn I love that song! The games story reminds me of liar game parody. The way WL insult the story line cracks me up so bad and the ways they use some line from other drama/idol. It is bizarre how I actually ended up liking this but somehow those weak points turns up to be the only things pushing me to watch more and more. i have to be honest I skip about 20% of the drama when the jokes get a bit too draggy or overboard.
The only 2 major complaints I have
1. I really like WL ego narcissistic smartass character, but takes me awhile to actually like WW. When i started to get used to the character, i actually really likes her but to be honest the love line between WW WL is just too forced. I absolutely hated this love line. First I feel that WL looks wayyy too young for her. Second, I really like their master discipline relationship which feels like WW is hard core mama bear, but the love line just totally ruin that perfect relationship. I dont know how everyone eventually liking it at all. It sort of giving me the disgust like a son loving his own mother sort of feeling. Yucks. Third, their personalities are too similar to become a couple, I dont feel one ounce compatibility at all. I was actually hoping HY brother ended up to be good and have a love line with WW instead, I find them really compatible and how they handle the jokes even age wise also more compatible. I am just terribly speechless and utterly disappointed with the ending. I thought this drama can surprise me with a better pairing.
2. Letting the first complain go because I enjoy the budding relationship between WL HY but why is the ending so unclear for HY story???? So who killed his family? Is it himself? How did he master the devil thing? Is he the one who killed his own parents from the start? The ending isnt legit at all as it feels like simply just flipping away rather than answering all the questions.
So to sum it up. I am recommending this to everyone, it was a light, packed with punches, crazy dumb drama that gonna crack you up. My suggestion is dont take it too seriously and just enjoy it. But although I like it, I wont rewatch it. Its sort of lame to hear the same jokes again and again. I enjoy the acting and loving most of the cast, even HY brother, love the music used, love the buddies relationship, love HY LL love line, love mentoring relationship, love the dumbass joke, love the parodies. Absolutely HATE the main love line, dislike the open ending. And funniest thing is I would hated to see sequel (if there is any) as I wont want to see the main love line, but at the same time I am damn curious what happen to HY).
This drama just sort of doesnt follow the law of drama, but still good. Hope this helps.

This is such a weird movie seriously, there are moments when i was so in love with the background and artsy points (tokyo bg is so pretty at night) and suddenly getting dropped without any relevant explanation. Some of the conversation doesnt actually make sense at all. It suppose to be such a great meaningful (about not asking anyone to love you but to love yourself first) romantic drama but out of nowhere you have the feeling the movie is very...porn like. I seriously was into all the romance and suddenly hearing words like naked, sex, raw, having baby...kinda feels like soft porn rather than a romantic drama to be honest. And the conflict is so messy.This is massive spoiler below ***
The WTF moment is when the two leads are going to spend their first night together but the male lead told her about his dad affair and suddenly she went crazy about it and left him in the hotel alone and went to her non related brother and seduce him??? ??? I would have enjoy this movie without all those complicated weird issue lingering.
I was hoping they could emphasize more on the meaningful side but the bad ones get accentuated more which makes me feel kinda wasting my time watching this.
The only thing I like about the movie is the nice classy music they used.

Despite everyone loving 1997 better, my favorite of all the sequel is actually this one.This is the first drama that I've reviewed with 5 stars 10/10. The only thing I wasn't fancy is the music but this is totally preferences as I don't like the oldies songs.
This is probably the only movie that I would re watch again and again because it combines all my favorite component of a drama. No extreme dramatic plot, very comedic, romantic, friendship, family, siblings, neighborhood aka parents friendship/ relationship (no typical mistress/divorce/money etc etc issue which portrayed mostly in recent drama - I think this has to do with the time where the scene is set) and last which is my absolute favorite is the lesson learnt or moral they teach. I have to say the acting of every single cast is amazing! This is probably the first time I love all of the main cast and how they portray their own unique characteristic. Everyone shines with their eccentric personality. Also probably the only drama where you won't find anyone to hate. No excessive climax but still so damn interesting to watch.
The romance side of it has a very big twist. I had a feeling the writer changed the lead actor after the eps 10 as PBG is getting much popularity with his acting and face. I honestly feel so bad for KJH as I think the he and DS have so many funny interesting interaction with each other, but honestly, despite my favoritism I think it makes sense who DS actually ended up with. After the more eps going through I kinda understand why he didn't get the girl and hence the lesson learnt, I especially like the scene when KJH missed his last chance and crying inside his car on the rainy day and the words he talk about fate/timing isn't really the biggest issue but he being hesitant from the start. I was like screaming, you are right! you should have grab her from the start! then no one will even snatch her from you, but the constant rejection causes all this, the fact you are running away is the only reason why the timing fails. His last confession is so damn touching, I cried! kinda feels better to know in real life he actually get the girl! good for him. Although, I have this strong 2nd male lead fever with this series, I actually also rooting for CT as I fell with PBG acting with CT. I think this is by far his best drama of all time. He portray CT so well, eccentric introvert genius who is not shy with his feeling at all and all his smiles and cries! he portray CT to be strong but also sensitive. I typically loves RDR being the adviser too and KJB being sort of dumb looking but absolutely sweet and loving brother also obviously DS fun eccentrics and all the parents too. everyone just did so well!
I especially loved the mood and setting where it portray those time where things are so much simpler yet romantic and much more fun where you spent times with people. Kinda reminds me of those good times which I think kids nowadays will never ever have the chance to enjoy. Absolutely well made drama, nothing much to pinch at all. Good story, good directing and crazy good actors, definitely highly recommended!

I was expecting something thrilling and mysterious, but somehow I ended up laughing with WTF remarks more. I cannot utter my disappointment with the massive loopholes in the story line. Having said that I have never watch the original movie before nor going to comment how they have to stick with the initial plot.Just mainly reviewing this movie by itself, there are too many cliches coincidence that save the day, eg motorcycle that is lying in aisle that has no one or dog that only bites once the attacker safely attacked (cant you attacked from the very beginning?), or even I dont understand why the sister need to take the lil brother away from the start if he was that popular.
The ending is far the worse to be honest. So many wtf moments where they are trying to make it sounds touching but plainly stupid in my opinion. When you can attack the bad person why would you hit him only once and then trying to pick up wounded blind woman to a locked door (shouldnt you hit him couple more times, open the door then pick up the wounded blind lady?) The sequence doesnt make any sense to me at all. And when the male lead hitting the bad person, whats the point of asking the blind lady to wake up and keep on getting hit by the attacker? What could have the blind lady do? In real life, if some psycho is attacking these 2, they would have been dead by now, not all the touching bullshit. The worse one for me is how the bad person actually knocked down with a wood ukulele/small guitar without even destroying the ukulele.
Honestly i was expecting so much on this movie with the high ratings and review but I am utterly disappointed. It would have been a nice movie if they sharpen the stories a bit to make it more realistic? The touching parts drag the story line so much to the hill. I actually rated it to 5 because it could have been a nice movie with good meaning eg meeting stranger is dangerous etc but the unrealistic loopholes just kill it.

Boring. Bland. DO acting was just flat in this. Not much chemistry
I started the drama due to favourite cast but probably one of the most boring drama I've watched recently. I probably skipped 60% of the drama as the phase, the chemistry are all lacking. I think the worst about this is the storyline. The only favorites character is the 2nd male lead. DO face is too stern all the time, probably due to the personality of the person he is depicting but making it looks really bland. Not recommendedVond je deze recentie nuttig?

Not particularly fan of melo movie or drama usually, but I have to agree with everyone that this movie is just beautiful. The storyline is one of the best I've rated so far, its slowly paced but smoothly and absolutely beautifully. It gives a meaningful lifestory that everyone can relate to which I particularly loved.I have to warn that I don't think everyone will like this movie though. It was very slowly paced, some part of the story is really dumb, eg why cant someone just stay with him all the time? Why Nao keep on running and running away? Inconsistencies lead to much questions but when you look at the overall storyline and if you could bear the time and tears, this will definitely amazing movie to watch.

I personally expecting a little more with the storyline after all the raving, but having said that still solid 8-9/10 story with absolutely amazing chemistry and acting between the actors. I can totally relate why xiao zhan become famous overnight with this one. His character WWX is so loveable that "IF" the storyline was bad, i would probably still watch it for the sake of him hahaha.
This is definitely a yes!! Must watch!!

The storyline itself is absurd so this is the type of drama you shouldn't take ? seriously but having said that, they made the story truly beautiful. They have all my favorites genre in one drama. Comedy, love, love triangle, brotherhood. The female and male lead are both apple candy! Xiao7 is very adorable and pretty! Her love for men hormones just crack me up everytime. The first half was so funny, i was laughing all the way. My first impression towards the male lead was so so but definitely grows over the time. His perfectly aligned teeth makes his smile so dashing! Very good actor, when he smile, I can actually feel he is really in love and his tearful goodbye was so heart wrenching. ??What I also like about this movie is the romance part doesn't take forever to start like all other drama, I think from the first 4 eps, I have already seen a lot of CP romantic scenes which i absolutely adore. Their chemistry is so amazing too! My only complaint is the female lead kissing can be better (the last scene is definitely better). I cant really remember the ost being good which is probably what is also lacking.
Overall still a very good light romance drama. Definitely recommending people to give this one a go.

What I like the best about this drama that it teach a very meaningful things for life. A bad condition might be a blessing in disguise. It teaches us there is always rainbow after the rain, and even if anyone is struggling, work hard to fight it and one day you will realize, it's all part of journey of the greater good. I love drama with this kind of additional hidden meaning.
the drama itself is such an eye candy. Both male and female lead are very likable. I wasn't really both fans from the start, I thought Dylan wasn't really that attractive at all (before this drama) and honestly his role in this drama totally blown that thoughts away. He is such an eye candy, the smile, the romance which is so smooth, and the interaction between the buddies. The female lead who is super adorable, dares to stand up against truth and bullies. Their chemistry is definitely the best
the other thing I love about this drama is the 2nd couple, QRF is super narcissistic but no one is as loyal as him. He is one of my favorite character in the drama and his love with Yang Yang is as adorable as the first lead.
Definitely recommending everyone to watch this!!!
* the MIL support is absolutely adorable too!

Honestly doesnt really feel there is much story going on besides friendship, winning match, achieving dreams. But I was still particularly interested due to the great acting and chemistry between the mates. Started noticing peng yu chang since this one. Still recommending this one to everyone who loves sports drama especially, but I probably wont rewatch it.
