The worst romantic movie I ever seen
If you enjoy a cast that cannot act and convey any emotions through their "so" called "acting" and a shallow "love" story then this movie is perfect for you.It's terrible and terrible and terrible and beyond terrible It's terrible and terrible and terrible and beyond terrible It's terrible and terrible and terrible and beyond terrible It's terrible and terrible and terrible and beyond terrible It's terrible and terrible and terrible and beyond terrible It's terrible and terrible and terrible and beyond terrible (need 300 words to post a review).

Predictable
This movies was really sweet to start off with, but took a turn to being predictable in the end...I’m tired of all these types of shows that have the viewer invested in a love story that has misunderstandings. Oh, and the usual female lead is too nice to tell her best friend she likes the same guy, so she sacrifices her feelings. these story lines do get kind of boring and so cliché.
There is no message to convey, just bringing the formula of teenage love story that full of misunderstanding in for the actors to play. They try to make a twist but it's a cliché twist, so it's not a twist in the end since audience can guess it right beforehand.
The acting was not bad, the music honestly cant even remember it.
Overall: I did find this movie extremely boring and so predictable, if you have 2hours to waste with really nothing to do then I guess go ahead and watch it.

I only have one question here. HOW DARE YOU TO WASTE SUCH A TALENT AS ROH YOON SEO?
?️For two hours I've been watching good actresses playing fake friendship, fake love, and the most unconvincing crying ever. If it's unconvincing, it has to be a comedy, but it's far from that. Even the male characters were hopelessly bland, targeting the female audience. And I know, that this is not the actors' fault but the screenwriter's because in Our Blues Roh YoonSeo had a really great performance.?️Seriously, guys, for how long are you going to make budget-safe and nostalgia-selling movies? I see you were influenced by 25 21, but the screenplay there was originally crafted. 20th Century didn't even bother to shoot a couple of frames on a real film camera.
You can't fake nostalgia. Periodt.

Please don’t watch it if you have a weak heart like me!!!
I cried my heart out and it was something that I never expected. The description should contain some information regarding it turning to a sad movie.. this can’t be a romcom!! They changed everything for me and it was something I didn’t wanted .. I am so upset with the ending.It could have been a happy ending and I was soooo hoping for it, if not then please give us some hints in the description so that people like me can avoid watching it.
The actors were so good .. their chemistry and acting was top notch no doubt in that.
All togethet if we leave the ending the movie was fantastic but still sad at many points.
If the writers wanted to give a sad ending then they should’ve atleast given us a reason for his death. It was so unfair for the watchers.
I so regret watching it because it made me sad without a warning at a time I didn’t wanted to be moreover I really wanted to watch these actors more and happy..feels like they wasted such a good opportunity :”(
Nevermind we can’t change it now.
So watch it at your own risk please!

It had potential but fell through
Ive watched a fair share of tragic romance movies, and i would say this movie falls under 'mediocre'. I think the acting was solid, but the plot was mediocre and had an unexpected twist that will make you question why it happened in the first place.Firslty, I couldnt seem to bond with the characters. There seemed to be a lack of proper development for most characters, or even if there was it just felt lackluster. I couldnt emphatise with any of the characters in this film, and its not like there wasnt any chance to empathise with them but i just couldn't feel strongly attached to any of them.
The romance between the two leads was also underwhelming. It was sweet and had potential to be developed even further if they had stuck to the whole first love/crush cliche but it had to end in the most tragic way possible which made me feel that the directors didnt give a chance for the romance to develop at all, and just ended it in the most sloppy way.
Tragic romances dont happen like magic. There's a build up to it -if you want the audience to feel sad for the character you need the audience to become emotionally attached to them. For this to happen, we need more development from this character, a bit more perspective into his/her life. When the ML died, it didnt make me feel sad, it made question why did he have to die. It was sudden and it felt forced.
And the ending where the brother invited her to an exhibition - this was so similiar to the japanese movie, Heavenly Forest. Even the artworks of the exhibition had to do with people - the resemblance was uncanny. But overall , the movie was ok. If you want something to kill time then this movie is for you.

Respect the Audience
When you offer a love story about two really sweet people who take care of others and are devoted to one another, you do not then tack on a deliberately hurtful ending without explaining anything at all. Nothing. We don’t know why it happened. We don’t know why the writer did it almost immediately, and we don’t know why his beloved never tried to find him, ask about him. For so many years……Nothing. Yet the couple the writer and crew taught us to love never would have done that to one another, nor would a good writer have done it to the audience who loved them.Was this review helpful to you?

spoiler alertSo netflix recommended this film to me as 'warm rom-com', a 'feel good' film
Now I know, that the person who wrote that did not see this movie. It was such a beautiful story, i loved it really... but the ending still pisses me off. Oh no i'm not just heartbroken, I'm angry.
What writer in their right mind thinks it's ok to end a movie like this? To take away my warm cuddly feelings that they've been building for over an hour and just obliterate them. Why?
And shame on Netflix for getting my hopes up. They ought to fire the person who wrote that description.
Other than the ending, i loved it ...

I am crying and I know you are as well...
Watching this movie, was one of the best things I've done in my life. At first I was like, "what could possibly happen and ruin this relationship?", then her friend told her that the one she actually liked was him, Woon-Ho, out of all people. I was shocked.. I didn't think things would turn out like this. I still had hope tho, that Bo-Ra and Woon-Ho will be together in the end and after half an hour in the movie, he's 'gone' (meaning he weant to New Zealand) I was glad they didn't lose contact... for awhile at least.. who would've thought that she won't be hearing, seeing, talking to him, ever again.. who would've thought that meeting at the train stasion, would be the last time they see each other.. After his brother said he was gone, actually GONE this time, I couldn't help but tear up. Why? Why didn't fate want them to be together? Why break my heart and not let them have their 'happily ever after'? (sure it's a movie, but still..) I knew, ofc I knew that things won't go as I wanted them to, I knew that the movie was gonna be sad and that's why I watched it in the first place. But as I did, I totally forgot all about it, about that the movie was a Drama and that it wouldn't have a happy ending. I even thought that people were exaggerating about it being sad (until the last 25 minutes at least). And here I am, writing this review while trying not to cry once again. I won't say that I regreat watching this movie, bc I DEFINETLY don't, even if it'll leave me depressed for the rest of my life, I'll be rewatching it, when I have the need to feel happy, I'll be choosing this movie, over and over again. Well, at least until the last 20 minutes. I loved Woon-Ho's character so freaking much, he was THE STANDARD. And ofc we cannot forget about Bo-Ra, I don't know why, but for some reason she inspires me. She makes me want to become a better version of myself. I loved this movie and I'll always will.Was this review helpful to you?
Nearly Perfect
This film is what I would describe as a youth film, it explores a certain chapter of the female main characters youth. The acting, cast, directing were all perfect. This was a nearly perfect film. Even if it contains a couple of plot twists, the first was executed well, the second plot twist left questions that needed answering. At the end there were gaps in the stories of the characters, there wasnt much closure in terms of side characters and even the main characters themselves and that left me wondering and slightly annoyed. HOWEVER, this is definitely still worth the watch, it was not left completely open ended there was some form of closure. The acting and overall atmosphere of the film means its definitelty worth watching, its an experience I would pay to watch you see.I would not rewatch but once you also watch it, Il think you will see why. :)

WHAT. 10/10.
THIS K-DRAMA IS ONE OF THE BEST I’VE EVER SEEN, WOAH. I watched it once (I wasn’t really paying attention to it), and the second time I’ve found that it was alright. HOWEVER, the third time as I was really paying attention to the fine details, my eyes were bawling. This film was soul-crushing, got me gripping the sheets and the producers now have to buy me insurance for the pain they caused me (in a good way.) I love that Bora got closure in the end, and she finally understood why he never called back. I do hate that we never knew how he died, but I do think uncertainty and the sadness of “what if?” is a big aespect that gets instilled in this melodrama. Kim Yoo-jung and Byeon Woo-seok had played their roles so incredibly that I felt the chemistry and life that was being put in ?100% recommend if you want a sob-fest and to cry to a first love film. don’t recommend if you want a happy ending and a love to last.

That was dramatic...
I'm just amazed of how the movie's mood changed so fast without being weird, it was shocking of course and I was kinda traumatized by it (?) but it wasn't bad at all. The visual aspect of the film is good, at least from the pov of a casual movie fan.I wish they had developed how he died better tho, like, he just died, and also Kim Yoojung acting in this is not my cup of tea, especially when she's crying lol.
In any case I recommend the movie and I'll probably rewatch it in the future.

why?
WTF was that ending. I don't go into romcom to have an unhappy ending where the guy dies just before he was about to reunite with our MC and she spends years not knowing about it and resenting him. The contrived misunderstandings with the bffs stopping them from being together were only bearable if it all led to a happy ending! The genre shift came so completely out of nowhere I was just baffled and ended up checked out. It reeks of the romcom that didn't want to be like the other romcoms and just failed at being anything satisfying. Way to ruin the outstanding performances of your amazing, charismatic, and personable cast!Was this review helpful to you?
