This is one of the best dramas I've watched. This is also one of my all time favorite dramas. I seldom complete a drama, cause most of the kdramas start great, but then drags in the middle and the end. It was not the case with this drama. This drama was wonderful from the beginning till the end. This drama had everything in it, comedic elements, cute romance, drama in the right amount. It was a drama about friendship and family and tugs at your heartstrings. It made me laugh, it made me cry, heck, it even made me feel all giddy inside!
The characters were just lovable and it made me root for them. The acting was just great, especially Eunji! OMG,that girl can act! The series will make you care about each and every character in the show.
I LOVED THE MOTHER AND THE FATHER! Eunji being the bubbly girl, Seo In Guk being the love sick puppy, the handsome heartbroken older brother, the bickering between the father and the daughter, the rivalries between the two fandoms - it was just too adorable. I lost count of how many times I hit the pause button and laughed for two whole minutes and then replayed the scene again.
This is a fun and a lighthearted drama which does not take itself too seriously. The fact that the drama is set in the 1990's and the story takes place in the year 1997 makes me love this drama even more because it is set in the year I was born. It makes you relive the 90's. Revisiting those days through this drama should be reason enough for someone to start watching this drama.

I had shied away from this drama numerous times. The name of the drama repelled me. Seriously, who named this drama? Shut Up Flower Boy Band, seriously?
Before starting this drama I had read few comments as well as reviews and they were mostly mixed. So I was not really sure whether I would really like this drama or not, given the ridiculous name and the mixed reviews. But, boy was I wrong! I was so stupid for not giving this a try earlier on.
It was a beautiful drama. I fell in love with Sung Joon in this drama. The situations portrayed in this drama were relatable. The coming of age story was so sweet. Each of the characters developed throughout the drama and grew up. I was hooked from the very first episode. Their struggle as a band, their strong bond and self discovery was depicted so nicely. At first I found the main female lead to be annoying. She seemed to be the same typical damsel in distress, who had every guy falling at her feet. But, even though she was a damsel in distress yet she took responsibility for herself and her situation and gave a piece of her mind when it was needed. And I learned to love her as the story progressed further.
At first, I was of the opinion that this drama was about some silly band, their struggle and eventually their rise to fame and THE END. But it is that and more than that. This drama made me care for all the characters within the first 2 episodes. For the ones who stated that they dropped this after episode 2, you are missing out because the drama gets better after that. Fast pace made the drama even more enjoyable and there was not a single boring moment in the drama where I wanted to skip the parts. The OST in this drama is great! Jaywalking is my favourite.
This drama surpassed my expectations. I suggest everyone to give it a try and not to drop it after the second episode.

I really didn't expect much from this drama, since it was a drama centered on the cheerleading club in high school. But the drama was good. It was actually pretty good. The casting was superb! So many eye candies, it made my day! xD
I decided to watch this drama solely cause of Eunji. Eunji has something in her which makes her really fitting for teenage based roles. She has this charm about her which makes people love her. And her acting is just great. Do I have to mention her smile? That smile can light up a whole town! Lee Won Gun, why so cute?! That devilious smirk xD Ji-soo, was such a sweetheart. Can he please be a lead already? I can't see him in such roles again where he just takes hold my heart and then just crushes it into thousand pieces! He was such a marshmallow on the inside, ready to pledge his loyalty to anyone who would show him kindness. Lastly, N umm, I found his character to be dumb or maybe that was intentional but he was adorable nontheless. This drama played wiht my heart, like at first I wanted Eunji to be with Lee, but then I wanted her to be with Ji-soo,but then again I wanted her to be with Lee! I was just so confused who to ship her with! Both guys were great and I just could not pick one T.T Eunji had such great chemistry with both the leads! But, then again the ending <3
But, please can she be in a romantic relationship with both the guys at the same time ?! >.< I know that will make her a slut and that's impossible... nvm.:(
Soo-ah, about Soo-ah i just have no nice things to say about her. I hate her. I HATE HER SO MUCH. I wanted her to die for all the horrible things she did. I wanted her to pay heavily for everything. I don't care if she did those things cause of her mother and the academic pressure. She is a real bitch! And no, I didn't like her pairing with N. Hmph! But, she made me hate her that much so she must have done a brilliant job. I also liked the music in this drama.
Since this was about cheerleading, I expected a lot of cheerleading but the drama didn't focus on that much. Instead, it quickly shifted it's focus to Soo-ah and her misdeeds. At times i felt like Soo-ah was the main female lead. But, overall the drama was a fun ride! ^.^ It showed the school's corruption, discrimination, academic pressure, how the students of two different clubs dealt with it, how they became friends and lovers gradually and overcame the hurdles together while being guided by some lovely teachers.

I started this drama when it was already halfway through its airing. I went into this drama without any expectations or prior knowledge about the plot or the cast, but I found myself enjoying this drama to the extent where I put other dramas on hold and binge-watched till the latest episodes available. I could not wait for the next episodes to air and be back with my favourite ajhummas!
 They were such a fun little group. More than a revenge group they were a comedy group. Each and every episode was packed with comedic and heartwarming elements. The characters were lovable and I could not outright hate any of the other bad guys, although I cheered for the ajhummas. The music was good though not memorable. At least, I don't remember any soundtrack off the drama.  Although I wished for one particular character to have a love line, I can't hold it against such a wonderful drama.
If you are looking for something light and fun you should give this drama a try. It will tug at your heart, make you laugh and cry with members of the club. But, don't go in expecting romance, you will be disappointed. It has romance but that's almost insignificant and not the central theme. I found this drama to be similar to Age Of Youth only this focuses on middle-aged women and their lives and struggles. So here, you have another drama to watch if you have finished watching both the season of  Age Of Youth and want something to tide you over.

Why did i decide to watch this drama?! uggh. Oh, yes because of the star cast and because i loved the first season.

Stupid story
Messy plot
Eye candy
Idol actors
Nice songs
Dumbass Female lead
Asshole Male lead
Rocker second Male lead
A villainous second female lead who turns out to be not so villainous.
No chemistry
Sudden out-of-the-blue romance
What was the message again?
What did the drama try to tell us?

I wasted my precious time. I suggest you don't waste yours, unless you consider your time to be precious. Honesty, I decided to watch this drama, despite the low ratings on MDL simply because of the star cast and I am a big fan of GOT7 and Jb and Jr are in this show. The first episode and the second episode were funny. I did laugh a lot in the first two episodes. But then the series started going downhill.
