" If you weren't the bully , than you were being bullied "
Girls be crying over a boy , I be crying over this movie .
This movie is a masterpiece. It's a story about the cruel reality of bullying we are living in. It's a story about two people who are hoping for better days after suffering so much. It's a story that should be heard and should be understood .
Both lead characters are so amazing and talented that you could feel their emotions, happiness, sadness, or whatever feeling right in their eyes and facial expression.
Even when they are having their happy little moments you will cry cause they are enjoying the days . i love this movie it delivers a simple message in a deep way; stop bullying. this movie spread awareness of bullying and informed me of many things that i did not realise happens when you get bullied; the story mainly goes through the pov of the victim getting bullied and shows her thoughts, unfortunately it did not really show what goes through the bullies thoughts which would be interesting to see if that happened it would probably try to make us feel sympathetic but i would have liked to see an extra where it shows the bullies side of story.
Before watching this i did not realise the harsh brutality of what these victims of being bullied goes through especially the amount of stress that they have to deal with studies is overwhelming enough i couldnt imagine getting bullied myself so throughout watching this i just felt extremely lucky that i dont get bullied at school. i love the cinematics in this, many scenes made me cry especially that one scene where the boy was pretending to rape the girl and when the cops seperated them they were both crying but not for the reason reason that they think- yeah that part just blew my mind and made me realise the the point of view can make a huge difference.

in love.
I don't even know where to start about this drama but I can tell you this muchwhen you start it there is just no way out you get hooked...literally!
The drama is truly a masterpiece ,how the story goes and the you get to know the characters and see them as they develop
Also we get to see their background and the reason behind their actions
I like how the drama try to keep track with the novel and make everything you read before come to life.
as for the ones that read the novel , definitely that some of you would be disappointed cause their love story is not the same as in the novel but that's okay , even though they didn't get married , the drama still a masterpiece
The cast of the drama had a big role to make it this great, the leads made it magical their acting skills and how they showed emotion and how they literally became Lan Zhan and Wei wuxian also for the rest of the cast their performance was wholesome!
The thing about how well detailed every character was being showed ,they all had their own unique qualities and the cast did a great job in pulling it off
This is truly the best drama ever I promise! Never in my life have I ever said this about any drama it is just different and on another level regarding its depth, cinematography acting etc. and extremely inspirational
if you are planning to watch it ( as you should ! ) , the most important thing is to focus on the first episode and don't skip anything cause if you do , you'd probably not understand anything from next episodes and you'd be confused ( like I did ) . It might be long for you cause its 50 episodes and the special edition is 20 episodes so in total 70 episodes , I don't get why some people dropped it but everyone have different points of views and opinions !!!!
I really think I will rewatch it again cause seeing the comments on YouTube there are people that its their 10th time watching it, so just you know its that good for people to watch it over and over
BONUS : if you don't know where to watch it , you can find it on YouTube with a good quality and you can select any language you want for the subtitles .

Some of you might get confused but thats why you have to focus and stick around the whole film.
The thing that I have learned from this movie is that you don't really need many actors so It would be a good movie .Acting was absolutely superb. Very believable performances from everyone involved and amazing work to show changes of the emotional and psychological states in the main characters. Jeon joon seo & Park shin hye played a brilliant role here. Young sook's laugh still give me chills! She played a real villian man!! Hats off to her character.
There is one thing I noticed, The cliffhanger ending that is supposed to shock us but ultimately doesn't fulfill any form of surprise or dread. No, that ending doesn't work at all. Let's just say it made no sense that our villain, wouldn't be found after what happened to her. I know cliffhangers are fun, but at least make them believable.
I liked how the relationship of mom-daughter changed in the end, when from the start Seo-yon towards her mom wasn't in good terms at all, maybe she thought her mom was kinda selfish of herself [doing her nails and such to make beautiful] but the twist of the plot showed that a mother will do everything just to protect and save her child no matter what. Seeing Seo-yon smiles at the end proved her how her mother loves her very much.
Overall, a very well done film that, throughout has you at the edge of your seat

TOUCHING
Nana to me is a touching and sad movie, even though it has a happy ending.In the first half of the movie, we deal mostly with cute, girly Nana's love life and her relationship with her boyfriend. She seems to be your traditional Japanese female who dreams of being married and handling the household. It is good that her bf doesn't seem to agree with this as he pushes her to find her own place and job. Ultimately, it proves to make her stronger.
Around half way through the movie, we focus more on the tough Nana's story that is only hinted at in flashbacks. This is where the movie really got to me. I'm not sure why, maybe because it speaks to my own/our own experiences with heartaches and pain that can come with love? The love between Ren and Nana seems so pure, so giving. It makes it all the more sad to see them fail at first, due to being proud people. You just feel that theirs is the kind of love that is really one in a million and hard to find.
Tough Nana isn't your typical Japanese girl. She isn't super cute or overly attractive. But her vulnerable side that shines through makes her very attractive, because you can feel that hers is a love that is as pure as the beautiful snow we often see in the flashbacks.
A scene close to the end where she suggests that they one day grow old together, after they have outgrown their pride and vanity made me cry. I guess that's where film has real life beat. In real life, no beautiful or sad music is playing over those special moments you share with others and no beautiful speeches are addressed at us.
The film might have been stronger if Nana and Ren didn't seemingly get back together in the end, but rather kept their melancholic distance. That's closer to real life, I think.
Still, I think Nana is a beautiful movie, not just for women, but for all of us who ever went through a heartbreaking time or felt they once had true love...
