There’s no words to describe this drama. I highly recommend this to those who want to see cute drama that makes your heart flutter! I was immediately interested when reading the plot. I told myself I’d wait until the drama was completed. As you can tell I didn’t wait. This drama’s really fresh from any other I’ve seen but not sure how it compares to I Am Not A Robot.

Another reason why I wanted to watch this was for Seo Kang Joon. <3 He’s my favorite actor now. His acting is remarkable especially since he’s playing a role of a human and a robot and it’s extremely hard to step into the shoes of two different characters like that. Like sometimes in other movies the double role characters have some kind of physical difference like hair or glasses but that’s not the case here so Seo Kang Joon did a great job showing a distinct expressions and carried out his roles perfectly. I found myself falling in love the Robot character. To summarize his acting in one word : mindblowing!

As for the story, the drama gets you hooked on the first episode. Most people would expect a lot science to be involved but I honestly think they showed more about human relationships and how Nam Shin, the robot, is stumbling upon different kinds of people. You will see how Nam Shin figures out more about himself while meeting the right people also while having to live as someone else. The drama is teaching a lot about how you have the power to make your own choice in a situation and not follow what someone tells you to do but act by your beliefs.

The music is literally so amazing and beautiful. The OST really adds to the feels of the situation. I’m playing them on repeat because that’s much I love them! Once I started watching this drama there was never a moment I regretted starting it. I’m taking summer courses so I hate when the week starts but omg I love Mondays and Tuesday because I can watch this drama but I wish they can come faster.

Please please watch this! I understand everyone has their own opinions and likes but I just wanted to share my experiences with this drama. It might not be for everyone but please try it out!

You'll horribly be missing out on the emotions

I'm not sure where to start because I love this drama so frickin' much. You'll be badly missing out on a gem if you won't watch it so please give it a try.

Overall:

I've seen the original movie "17 again" years ago and it left me curious as to how they would spread out a movie into 16 episodes of a drama. I knew the general story but went in expecting the expected, with no surprises. BUT NOPE it was completely unexpected as this drama encases intense emotions with right amounts of humor and suspense elements along the way. This story is more than just a story. Everything but the transformation is so real whether it be the family, friends, dreams/aspirations and love of all kinds. There's so much to learn about ourselves and surroundings through what they show us on screen. It shows is how to be grateful for the good and the bad in our lives because it makes us who we are. It shows us that we can't waste our life looking what we don't have have but see what we do have.

Main Ideas in my opinion:

We often assume the reasons behind someone's actions and this is the biggest idea the show focuses on. We need to try to understand the other person's perspective and problems will arise when things go unsaid and caring actions go unseen. Sometimes we might not know the whole story of someone. The drama shows that misunderstandings serve as clouded judgement, leading us to easily make decisions we regret later. The intertwined journey of the leads allows them to learn and see their partner in a different light and the sacrifices they've made.

"18 Again is a heavy family-oriented drama as it displays the dynamics not just between two leads and their kids but the leads and their parents as well. It shows the parent's perspective of being strict with their child simply because they don't wish for their kids to face any struggles. But this only bridges the gap between the kids and the lead characters. The drama shows us kids can express this frustration by being quiet or rebellious while encountering problems of their own in school. They show us the importance of approaching your child primarily as a friend and then secondly as a parent because it makes it easier for them to speak out.

The main character Jung Da Jung was a strong person who never gave up on her dreams. Her perseverance is greatly demonstrated throughout the show. She didn't let comments on her age or being a mom get in the way of continuous effort. With her genuine personality she breaks past all the barriers, earns her place in her dream job while winning the hearts of the people who once stood against her.

Acting/OST :

The main character of Hong Dae Young played by Yoon Sang Hyun and Lee Do Hyun have blended in seamlessly. Lee Do Hyun never lets us forget he's the older version of himself on the inside(Yoon Sang Hyun), a father with protective instincts, a caring husband who's still loves his wife dearly, a best friend and someone who came to see his mistakes and never stopped being their for his family. That was a mouthful but seriously he did an outstanding job even though this is his first drama as a main role ( go watch him in Hotel del Luna!). I personally thought Lee Do Hyun was the main character most of time but when emotional moments came, Yoon Sang Hyun would return to the screen to portray the true character on the inside. Apart from the incredible acting delivered by the two main male actors, I think this drama did a great job of visually showing the transformations to highlight that aspect. AND there was no supporting character who wasn't necessary to move the plot forward. There was a right balance between the past and the present scenes so you won't get confused.

The OST complements the scenes so well and it really brings out additional emotions (I was ballin' most of the show and I don't cry that easily). I think "Hello" sung by SoHyang was the most played OST and TRUST ME it's such as amazing song. I'm still learning the language but despite not understanding 80% of the song, I could feel the sorrow and the love (this goes for the whole OST). The power of music extends past the language and that's true fascinating.

Many people find the ending of most dramas to be incomplete but the ending in "18 again" leaves us feeling complete and healed. I was crying while watching show at night and in broad daylight ( at 11 in the morning LMAO). So that speaks for itself. No matter how much I write it's not enough to describe this piece of work. I liked "17 again" but I like "18 again" a lot more. It's made me delusional enough to write a message to Lee Do Hyun on Instagram about how much I loved the show as if he'll see it LOL

Guys I really like this drama not just because of the cast, I honestly thought it had a really good message to send to everyone. Being pretty or good-looking isnt everything or the key to having a better life. They showed differing views on how people see and define what appearance is like to them and how exactly they go about acting based on their belief in front of others. The drama talks from the view of someone who got plastic surgery and how they have to tackle unexpected attention, rude comments and how self-conscious they are. I thought the cast and crew made an awesome drama to display many personalities revolving around the idea of someone’s looks and the thought process behind it. Each character portayed really different personalities and taught us when someone’s acting in a certain way there’s definitely a reason behind that action. They show us that even thought you are having or had a tough time in the past you still have a chance of being happy. Expect the unexpected. You’ll find someone who’ll support you for you not because of how you look. I wish this drama didn’t end so soon. Awesome awesome drama!

If you have watched a lot of dramas before watching this one you might not connect with the storyline which I found myself doing. It’s a typical storyline but I definitely enjoyed all the characters in the drama. Though it’s a repeated childhood friend story Park Minyoung and Park Seo Joon brought some freshness into it as we haven’t see their pairing. Each love story was unique and cute. Some scenes were extremely funny so there was a reasonable amount of comedy which made up for the story in some way. The OST was okay but not super amazing. Overall the drama was okay but don’t watch with extremely high expectations because you can guess what coming next, it’s not unpredictable.
