Ria Jun 22 2021 3:41 am Two words, utter nonsense.

Arisa Jun 20 2021 4:06 pm Before I was very devastated how the drama ended. However, looking back, it really should end that way, if not, it will not picture the Gwangju Uprising in the right way.

It was a very beautiful drama.

Aj Jun 18 2021 9:49 am I don't know how I will ever get over this drama... I never felt this deep attachment and heartbreak over a show before. :(

Brigita DW Jun 15 2021 12:21 am For me, this drama is one of masterpieces i've ever watched. 12 episodes are perfect, there is no dull/boring scene because it is actually very complex and told many side stories, not just the love of Myeonghee (Go Minsi) and Heetae (Lee Dohyun).

1. This is a tribute of Gwangju Uprising. I never imagine, a revolutionary story will be explained this beautifully beside its patriotism 2. Yes, you can find the love story clearly. But, not only love story, you will find family's warmth. Myeonghee's father and brother, Heetae's brother, and how Soochan wanted to protect Sooryeon (+the ending of how their father's side that never been sxposed in early episode) 3. The scenes' cinematography is soooo fascinating. Like i jumped into that era. 4. The ending was very rational and it still stole my heart. I never thought i would be crying like this (i usually don't cry on romance drama :)) )

Actually, there are so many hidden gems in this drama but i think you must watch it yourself hehehe

Kim Myung Hee Jun 14 2021 3:24 pm This drama is a tribute to the victims of Gwangju Uprising and to those people who lost their loved ones at that time, it shows one of the painful history of South Korea and those people who sacrificed themselves. This is not just a love story, it really shows how cruel the world is. We can learn from it and it really managed to capture the history. It really gives a warmful message to those people who suffered from that tragedy. This drama is a masterpiece and I really enjoyed watching this! Thank you to the actors who portrayed their roles effectively, and to the screenwriter and director.. thank you for creating this masterpiece, I realized that I am so lucky to have been born at this time period where my country is peaceful and we are living so comfortably.

Hwang Hee-Tae Jun 14 2021 12:07 pm A remain from 5.18 victim identified after 41 years! It really gave me chills knowing that this happened exactly a week after Youth of May finished airing! https://n.news.naver.com/mnews/article/047/0002316290?sid=102

maria Jun 12 2021 11:44 am 10/10 pls watch!

That was a tragic ending...... even though all along we all knew what's going to happen but.....the casts lee do hyun and go minsi their chemistry is undeniably so good. I cried over fictional couple <33 peak kdrama lovers behaviour ;(

pdnims, writers and all of the staffs and casts, you guys really did an excellent job! i laughed, i blushed, i cried and i learned alot from the plot and storyline it was so amazing! the historical elements, romance, family and politics all in one drama.... waaahhh one of the best drama in 2021 hands down! i wish the rating dont define the storyline.

Thank you for the amazing 12 episodes that fill my sorrow and emptiness <3 and now it has come to an end..... #myungheetae <3

To those who love scarlet heart ryeo this drama suits you <3

Hud Jun 11 2021 5:00 am This was the best drama that i ever watch. Hee tae and myunghee were siblings in 'sweet home' and now play as lovers in 'youth if may'. I thought at first it might seems awkward but thay really did a gooddd job! I was like totally forgot that they were sibmings before. Great storyline, great acting. I finished all the episode in 2 nights and its all worth it. Cant wait to see another new project of lee do hyun. ❤️❤️

Hud Jun 11 2021 4:59 am This was the best drama that i ever watch. Hee tae and myunghee were siblings in 'sweet home' and now play as lovers in 'youth if may'. I thought at first it might seems awkward but thay really did a gooddd job! I was like totally forgot that they were sibmings before. Great storyline, great acting. I finished all the episode in 2 nights and its all worth it. Cant wait to see another new project of lee do hyun. (Im his fan now)

Kdrama Addict Jun 11 2021 4:56 am The most beautiful yet painful May ever. I expected the ending to be like that since May during 1980 was a really tough time for Koreans. Still, it didn’t lessen the pain when I finally finished watching. Thank you, Go Min Si and Lee Do Hyun, for giving life to the roles of Hwang Hee Tae and Kim Myung Hee. Youth of May will always be a drama that will forever be in my heart. Best Melo Of 2021 ❤️?

Cry Guy Jun 10 2021 10:29 pm Wow, just wow. This is definitely a drama you have to watch. Great chemistry from the two leads. Wonderful portrayal of the other cast who all have their own unique characteristics and bleed life to their characters. So far, best melodrama of the year for me. And It Was Only 12 Episodes!

Dominsi Jun 10 2021 9:43 pm One of the most painful kdramas I've watched?still can't move on how the drama was ended very painfully

juju Jun 10 2021 3:29 pm on a separate note, all those atrocious soldiers must have reincarnated to US and canadian cops, very nasty.

juju Jun 10 2021 3:15 pm very entertaining drama but very sad story...especially as expats we were there at the time, but didnt realise this was happening.

how did but Hwang Ki-Nam grow a conscience, or at least some semblance of sadness, in the span of seconds after young son got injured? the writer seem to take th east way out...notice this in many kdrama.

Lovely Jun 10 2021 1:35 pm Really good short drama, also sad too :( i think jung tae is the psychologist in the beginning of ep 12 since he did got shot in the leg and the dr in the beginning was also limping…wish they showed more of what happen to the other characters like her tae’s friend that is in a coma, his dad, myeong hee’s mom and etc…

alohs Jun 10 2021 3:58 am rly sad

J b Jun 10 2021 2:07 am This drama is very heartwarming..very sweet.. yet very heartbreaking...

Xoxolettuce Jun 10 2021 1:03 am Prepare yourself with all the tissues :( best kdrama I’ve watched in a while. <3

Kimchi Jun 09 2021 10:19 pm @Dawn its soo chan.they showed him and suryeon in the present time

Kdramawatcher Jun 09 2021 5:58 pm Rewatch the last episode within 24 hours. Yes, sad ending is a must as I expected. This serial intended to showed us about Gwangju Uprising brutality. But as a serial, I think the ending is poor planned eh? Too rushed? I don't mind waiting for 4 episodes more haha! I wanna know about Lee Jin A' s family, about her brother come home after against Gwangju people. No offense to Choi Won Young's acting skill but 26 yo + 41 years later, you must be looked so old hahahaha.

BTW, it taught me so well about the ugly truth: wealthy people stay wealth during social-political chaos, even wealthier. But poor family like Kim family lost so many things.

Hee Tae and Jung Tae had evil abeoji. But they survive anyway. Lee family still wealthy and stronger. They really win, ha!

Dawn Jun 09 2021 11:33 am Oh, he is Jung Tae.

Dawn Jun 09 2021 11:30 am Maybe this clear to everyone, but who is the psychologist at the beginning the ep 12?

Bb Jun 09 2021 10:08 am hope this will have another 1 last episode to explain what happened to other casts? It's a sad ending at the same time it hangs me there because of unanswered questions about other casts. Please please?

Falala Jun 09 2021 5:58 am Beautiful ending. Cheers to the actors, actresses, writers and director. This is the best they can done and i would say this is also the best melodrama in 2021 so far.

James Christopher Park Jun 09 2021 3:50 am The preceding commenter, "yomyom" was point on. Apparently, that's the sad reality of the event that took place in Gwangju. I hope the families get their justice. Amazingly, the President during the uprising is still alive. I hope he'll go through hell for all he has done.

yomyom Jun 09 2021 2:39 am I think writer's intended to give this "sad" ending is well delivered. The way I see it, they want to give awarness to everyone that this event (Gwangju Uprising) is really happened and yes, there's a lot of people losses their loved ones due to this event. In contrary, if you make a drama with a settings around a time of conflict and giving it a "hollywood ending" is considered an insult from my perspective. An insult to the people who lost their lives and the people who lost their loved one.

Yeah, for me this drama is well written and ironically the sad ending is the best possible one.

Star Jun 08 2021 11:40 pm Make sure you get tissues before watching :/

jeony Jun 08 2021 11:32 pm wait nevermind, i rewatched the scene a couple times and only noticed how the guy was walking while sort of limping, it was indeed Jungtae. too bad they didn't show what happened to Jina tho, since they were sort of close too

jeony Jun 08 2021 11:23 pm wait nevermind I rewatched the beginning a couple times and realized by how he was walking and sort of limping, it was indeed Jungtae .-.

jeony Jun 08 2021 11:13 pm wait can't someone tell me who was at the beginning of episode 12? (the therapist guy) was it Jungtae perhaps? since they didn't really say what happened to Jungtae apart from the fact that he didn't live around Hwitae anymore

anu Jun 08 2021 10:29 pm hope that Go Min-Si got more lead actress drama after this. And this drama really shows Lee Do-Hyun acting skills too. Really deserve that awards from 18 Again.

6 Jun 08 2021 7:48 pm Lol @ those people who are hoping for a good ending. This drama showed a part of the Tragedy that happened at Gwangju. There were actual lives that were ruined, dreams shattered, and love stories that might have actually ended up like what happened to MH & HT. And for Seok Chul, or the girl that Hee Tae saved at Seoul, showing up at the end, I believe that they added that part to show what made Hee Tae to continue being a doctor, aside from the words that Myeong Hee told him.

Thank you to the Youth of May team for showing us a wonderful drama!

Kdramawatcher Jun 08 2021 7:09 pm I hate the ending

Pacoon Jun 08 2021 3:53 pm An entertaining drama with a poorly planned ending. The girl who was always hospitalized and her story was being in a hospital bed, she appears at the end. Who cares? I had to search this page for who that character was. Tell me the story of Park Se-Hyun's character which is more interesting. What happened to her in the end? I really liked the work of this actress.

Conclusion: Kim Myung-Soo killed her father and her sister. That is why she becomes a priest.

kyo Jun 08 2021 12:02 pm interesting drama... but the older hee tae really doesnt look like 66 years old. he just really look 45 Y.o. may be the MUA need to improve more.... :(

Nazwa Jais Jun 08 2021 6:47 am I love this drama so much !!!!! Love this couple

Rocky Jun 08 2021 5:04 am This drama needs more recognition. It's not a cringey type of romance.

Dawn Jun 07 2021 3:58 pm @Winter Where are you from? The drama interesting, I feel hard heartbreak for the people in Gwanju (this drama made me cry) and I angerier because of the cruel people, especially Hwang Ki-Nam, he is the most heartless. I have to beat in the air to calm down my anger. But then I recall that, in my country happened more cruel, and horrible things in the past. (Sorry my bad english)

This Drama Is So Good, Everyone Must To See! :)

Jasmine Jun 07 2021 7:27 am I don't really like Soo Ryeon, she is quite selfish, even to her friend and to her father.

Tata Jun 06 2021 1:49 pm Watching this drama is Just like Watching the communist era in Indonesia, although Indonesia has More victims and More tragic. For some People who never live in a country with communism issue, May be they cant think How coul and make many good historical drama. d Democracy protestors called communi. I feel communi is sensitive issue in that Time, how the unstabil government manipulate everything to their own. Wow this drama is very nice to portray the political situation in that Time. I think its Really Great drama. I love How South Korea has High nationality

Lysa Jun 06 2021 11:11 am Its was a good romantic historical but it’s getting bored started ep 9. The story is all about student protestor and just shows how powerful Hwang Ki Nam is (Hwang Hee Tee’s father) and i hate the fact that nobody can beat Hwang Ki Nam.

Bea Jun 06 2021 6:38 am It was addictive since the beginning. The fact that it is inspired by real facts makes the drama even more touching. Can't wait to see the ending. I'm gonna buy lots of tissues

Sad_twerking Jun 05 2021 12:53 pm Just by the fact it's 12 eps, I'm gonna be sobbing by the end of this. Hymn of death vibes.

crispy_cb97 Jun 05 2021 12:43 pm i want to watch this drama but im not sure, the reviews arent very convincing

alva Jun 03 2021 12:56 am 12 ep good length, tight story and dialogue, unlike the usual korean drama where half the times are devoted to flashbacks because they dont know how to tell a story properly. and having two hotties, go and keum to look at, no complaints.

Kdramawatcher Jun 02 2021 10:16 pm The police officer Deserve Better. At least he knows So Ryeon' name

Star Jun 02 2021 9:45 pm This drama is really really good! But prepare yourself because you will cry :(

Anddy Jun 02 2021 2:46 pm I hope this drama will end with happy Ending?i'm really2 Don't want to be depress if this would be Sad ending..i'm really love this drama

Goldenb Jun 02 2021 10:59 am This drama scaring me now,my heart is breaking for every innocent people who suffered from this,unexpected and great drama

sadness Jun 02 2021 7:58 am Hate the sad ending.. only left 2 episode..less change to hope is happy ending.. i thought they will reborn & the bad guys will get the punishment.. is hurt but true.. i need to skip the episode...

Winter Jun 02 2021 4:32 am this series is like what is happening in our country now

Keytie Jun 01 2021 2:53 pm Knowing that this is a historical melodrama, that got me interested. love the story and their chemistry is on point. It makes me sad knowing the struggles during that time in Gwangju. I cant believe it that it is just 12 episodes. Looking forward on what will happen next

Mj Jun 01 2021 10:52 am @haru I think you didn't understand the plot well..or maybe you did a lot of skips..or perhaps u know nothing abt love (oops no offense)

Mj Jun 01 2021 10:50 am It was just so crzy to think that there's just 2 episodes left. Its crazier to think what will happen on these last two episodes ? why does it have to be just 12 episodes ? director-nim can we possbly extend??

Shayonti Jun 01 2021 6:06 am How can this drama not ranked within top 20 tv programmes.woah ppl r becoming taseless day by day ? This is the best k drama i have ever seen. What a acting ❣️❣️

hilda debora May 31 2021 11:45 pm I thought this is romantic story no... it's triller and horror I can't imagine the gwangju people's feeling at that time :(

Dawn May 31 2021 4:27 pm I want happy ending (but it has only a little chance). Literally I'm in tears, because of the last scenes, and the sentence (in ep 9). :(

Belquis May 31 2021 1:00 pm @haru

No, I don't think Hee Tae was greedy when he agreed to get engaged, because Myung Hee who told him to do so. Just because of that. He didn't want to force his feelings on her when she was the one who told him to get engaged because she was thinking of her best friend. And he takes Myung Hee words seriously, as he can't decline what she wants. Hee Tae was simply waiting for Myung Hee to realize her feelings, and once she told him she doesn't want the month to end without him, he rapidly took her hand and ran from the whole engagement party. I think his personality is really beautiful, he cares for Myung Hee a lot and continuesly expresses his feelings to her but at the same time he doesn't want to force anything on her. Their love is so beautiful! <3

haru May 31 2021 3:07 am this is not a love story ... the moment he decided to be engaged to the other girl ... their love story ended ..... hurting so many innocent people ( the girl , her brother , her friend ) ... it's not a love story it s being greedy .. he become a jerk , all the others charecters were good people why he did hurt them just bcs he was greedy

Dominsi May 29 2021 8:07 pm To:kdrama oppahyung I agree with you LDH and GMS are still rookie actors and yet they rrally carried the drama with their acting skills,chemistry and I would also want to give credits for the whole casts they did such an amazing job their chemistry is really top tier plus their visulas really added the cherry on top.Even though they played siblings in other drama the still managed to give us top tier chemistry in this drama as a lovers.

Lol May 29 2021 7:46 am I didn't realise that Youth of May only has 12 episodes... we are left with 4 more :(

Dawn May 29 2021 5:22 am It is soo pretty and elegant drama. It's don't boring, even if I see three parts one after another. Lee Do Hyun and Go Min-Si did really great job. Hwang Hee Tae is so sensitive and strong a same time, I love his character. I like Kim Myung He too. They did good character portray, all characters are seem like real.

Hailey May 28 2021 8:40 am Masterpiece! so many feelings & emotions.

I missed this kind of a drama

Their chemistry is so good ...

nkili May 27 2021 8:12 am what's up with the su ryeon hate? y'all are just misguiding her, I think out of everyone, she's the one going through a lot and y'all can't understand it... yes, maybe she shouldn't have urged myung hee to date the dude but I guess she didn't expect her to fall for the jerk

Joy May 26 2021 5:47 pm So far I’m loving this drama,it’s so amazing I love the casts,characters and their chemistry who ever casted them did an amazing work,Lee dohyun and go minsi look good together,and for rookie actors like them it’s very impressive that the ratings of this drama is ranging from 4-5% cause usually some rookie actors drama ratings can only pull off a 1-2% ratings,and lee dohyun’s acting is superb and convincing from the facial expressions and voice tone you can really feel the emotion and I’m glad that go minsi is also the recognition she deserves I hope they will grow more in this industry they are such talented actors.

Ichime May 26 2021 2:03 pm super like the drama 10/10 Super enjoyy, really recommended

Currently obessed with on going kdrama Mon-tues: Youth of May & Doom at your service Wed-thurs: my roommate is a gumiho Fri-sat: so i married an antifan Sun: *get rest my dear eyes*

Buddie May 26 2021 3:48 am They have the right pace for a melodrama. Each characters have different layers and stories which made me empathise them. Except for the dad (spoiler alert). So far I'm at eps 6. I enjoyed watching the leads' romance. I also love lee do hyun's expressions which i find it to be always on point. And go min si is so elegant. I couldn't find anyone else playing the character.

Sahar May 26 2021 12:46 am Best korean drama forever

caratdeul May 25 2021 10:06 am Have you guys ever thought that the siblings from Sweet Home might be the children of Myung-Hee and Hee-Tae? ^-^

hhtlovee May 24 2021 8:22 pm I love this everything in this drama especially Hwang Hee Tae. He is so precious. My dream guy aaaaaaaaaaa ?❤️

Nara May 24 2021 6:59 pm If I could rate it 200% I would!! Absolutely love everything about this drama. I’m obsessed!!!! The cast is amazing and the story is so intriguing. Everything about it is so emotional and just draws you in. Recommend for sure!

jerry May 24 2021 7:02 am I wish soo ryeon will die I hate her

Kelo May 23 2021 5:03 pm I have a feeling the skeleton in the beginning is myeong hee. Maybe the both of them will reborn and meet each other in their new life..?

Bill May 21 2021 4:50 am Lol now i know i'm not the only one who's hate Soo Ryeon. She really made me disappointed when she just ask Myung Hee to told Hee Tae to marry her bcs of her family. I really waiting for her to say 'sorry' to Myung Hee even though she know that her bestfriend and Hee Tae is in love with each other, but that word really didn't come out from Soo Ryeon's mouth. Soo Ryeon is definitely a coward who just pretend to be brave, disgusting.

Was born in july May 20 2021 6:50 pm Soo Ryeon is both selfish and a coward

Julie May 20 2021 11:34 am I cant wait to watch this when I fi n s h 10 other drama's lol i have watched 20 drama's so far.

cp May 19 2021 11:29 am soo ryeon's brother is literally the sweetest, how can you hate his character? is it cuz he's around myung hee a lot? As for soo ryeon... she kinda piss me off, she was my favorite character up until now. Her family situtation is serious but tbh, she brought it to herself and poor Myung hee, my heart literally broke for her. Seriously, I cannot believe all the audacity this girl had in ep 5-6, knowing myung hee liked hee tae, like girl tf? Seems like a one sided friendship if you ask me, especially after finding out myung hee took the blame for what soo ryeon did, like shes always inconsidering myung hee's feelings and somehow makes everything about her while myung hee, being the angel she is, cares for her enough to put her needs over her own needs and even give up the person she likes. Lol, I'm like a soo ryeon anti fan rn, im so steamed.

Krookrookina merjjj May 19 2021 8:46 am I wish the skeleton that was shown in ep 1 is soo ryeon!!!!!!! I hate her.

Rose May 19 2021 7:53 am I guess I'm not the only one who hates Soo Ryeon for being selfish ...

Rose May 19 2021 7:51 am Myeonghee and Hee Tae is so precious, please protect this couple. All I want for them is to be happy together~

nameless commenter May 19 2021 6:27 am I understand the perspective of each main character except Sooryeon lmao. I guess it's because we haven't really seen her pov yet but so far all we see is her being selfish. Whenever she gets caught and imprisoned, her father bails her out and then she whines about how she could've handled it herself, and that happened at least like 2-3 times in a course of 6 episodes. Next, she tells Heetae that she wants to keep the fake engagement going for at least a month so that she can aid with her father's business partnership. Heetae tells her how bad that idea was too lmao. Then she goes and lies about not knowing about Myunghee and Heetae's relationship for some unknown reason, only to cause another avalanche of problems so she ends up confessing it to her brother.

God, I hope her pov is not of her being bullied by her classmates for not taking responsibility or begging her father to free Myunghee when she was caught. I hope her arc is reasonable enough.

Calada May 19 2021 5:03 am Soo ryeon... how can you be so selfish

Lisa May 19 2021 3:36 am I can't stand sooryeon omg. Why is she making munghee feel bad for being with hee tae, sooryeon has everything she ever wanted in life, how can she be so selfish to try to take the only thing munghee has. I can't stand her ugh

meee May 19 2021 2:13 am i hope they end up with each other. ill not accept if something happened to myeong hee huhuhuhuhuhu

cynt May 18 2021 11:10 pm So Ryeon characters in eps 6 just driving me crazy. How can be shes so selfish lol

ameera May 18 2021 4:26 pm i like both of the main cast lee do hyun and go min si they look so good together . but the things i dont like is hwang hee tae's families except his mum and little brother (hwang jung tae) . and also i dont like lee soo ryeon's families UGHHHH i really hate her brother (lee soo chan) . anyway hwang hee tae ang myung hee looks suits together :) they the one who deserves to get married after all Periodt .

Uli May 18 2021 8:27 am Been so long since the last time watch melo and looking forward because both leads are my faves.

Also Love the little brothers. Their chemistry, development relationship hahahaha and I just found out that both play Kim Young-Kwang child version in different drama. One from "The Secret Life of My Secretary" and the other from "Hello, Me!"

Lui May 18 2021 7:42 am This drama is so cute

Mahi May 17 2021 11:47 pm soo ryeon characters so annoying, childish and selfish. UGH

michelle May 17 2021 6:30 am this drama was really cute, i can't accept if its become unhappy ending

Hash May 17 2021 4:33 am Another sad ending? :"(

AMJ May 16 2021 3:06 pm At first I thought it was just a melodrama set in 40 years ago, then I looked up Gwangju uprising now I think it is going to have a sad ending, specially with the skeleton at the start. God damn it.

demitres May 15 2021 11:38 pm Absolutely stunning. And Both Lee Do Hyun and Go Min Si look sooooooo good together. I love both of their characters

Mira May 15 2021 1:40 pm Can someone please explain to me how go minsi can look like 10 people at the same time. Sometimes she looks like iu, sometimes son naeun, jennie, yeri, rosé, ryujin,. Like damn she's so beautiful.

Korean fan May 15 2021 12:21 pm I am really excited to know how the story goes and yet to know to what extent Gwangju uprising will be portrayed in this drama. It is heart breaking for sure. Gwangju uprising was itself a tragedy and heart breaking.

Jen May 15 2021 9:10 am I like how the female lead out here is not the typical drama female lead, being peppy, energetic, jumping here and there, screaming and acting cute. She is soft spoken, wears almost no make up (which makes her character more real) and gives the calm aura. I love the female lead character written by the writer / director for this particular drama.

upi May 15 2021 6:24 am i sense a birth of new sad second-lead hero.. i predict people will love Lee SuChan's character..

Dramasunshine May 15 2021 12:35 am Someone said Go Min Si is too short for Lee Do Hyun???? bruh the height difference shouldn’t matter wtf and plus it’s So Cuteee, they have amazing chemistry

I personally didn’t watch Sweet home. But I’ve watch their individual works and I love them both. I’m rooting for great ratings. I know it’ll be devastatingly sad tho :((( the gwangju uprisings was a very horrific time

Ryujin May 14 2021 1:09 pm I just wondering about the skeleton. I wished it not Myong hee. The rest of the storyline is perfect. What I can say is I'm hooked on this drama.

Yedam May 14 2021 1:02 am Go min si's visual in this drama is breathtaking, like how is she so pretty. Also this drama is so good, I've been re watching the episodes, can't wait for more. Fighting go minsi and lee do hyun

Yeseul May 13 2021 9:09 pm this is only 12 episodes but please... please let this be a happy ending :(((

Will Kiryuu May 12 2021 11:55 pm I thought it would be awkward to see them both as a pair since it's only last week that I finished sweet home drama. BUT there was no trace of that, I love their Chemistry.

yejitopia May 12 2021 10:43 am yall, sleep on beds, not this kdrama

gibbs May 11 2021 11:03 pm and he is too nice for kim myung hee , shes is a just a bag of doom and gloom.

gibbs May 11 2021 10:59 pm keum sae rok looks good next to lee do hyun, go min si a bit too short for him, unless with some extreme heels. plus, keum sar rok character nice and feisty.

Rara May 11 2021 10:47 pm Why am I keep repeating all the eps, really can't wait for nextweek

Himemem May 11 2021 7:01 pm It’s a good romance story with a dark twist. I really hope the best friend dont turn into a bitch later on. I have a feeling she might grow to like hee tae

dkk May 11 2021 5:14 pm The chemistry between the leads makes my heart flutter, I love how Heetae looks at her with such want and adoration. The relationship between is heartwarming. I really like the story so far but I feel like it's gonna have a very sad ending. I don't know what to anticipate.

sssssst May 11 2021 3:05 pm Go minsi really stunning in this drama

Mimishi May 11 2021 4:39 am I really love this drama but i can feel that in the end i will cry like a river

Gigi May 11 2021 1:24 am Guys don't sleep on this drama. The plot is good and the chemistry is insane

ShinShim May 10 2021 9:32 pm I really love this drama. That's really good drama to watch.

dee May 10 2021 7:38 pm for people who keep saying it's weird seeing them as siblings in one drama and lovers in the next. lmao can u guys relax. there are people like me who haven't watched sweet home so this couple is very new to me.

i love their chemistry in this drama and i already know i'm gonna be so sad when this ends!

Okinawa May 09 2021 10:12 pm Watching first eps and im already inlove!! I never expected go min si can play a lead role she's really stunning here.

I?this May 09 2021 9:24 am I like the drama...my 1st fav drama is true beauty this is 2nd i like thisss drama very muchhh

Hey May 08 2021 7:33 pm The drama is so good. The character and cast fits the role they have. Loving the chemistry of both lead actors and actress. Can't wait for the next episode to be released soon.

Mae May 08 2021 5:36 pm This is only 12 episodes?!? I thought it will be atleast 16 ?

Erin May 08 2021 2:25 pm Immediately felt from the first episode that this drama will be great! I love the plot of the drama, really looking forward on how it will unveil; the cast, characters and chemistry between the two are so good adding to that I love how this was during 1980's South Korea it really gives a new view and awareness about the country's past++ the setting, the clothes, and the overall feeling was on point also. Wishing that Hee Tae and Myung Hee will end up together huhu,,I know this is a melodrama but please please I hope the ending doesn't dissapoint.

ldh May 08 2021 9:58 am This drama is really fascinating, the story is on 1980s and the set is really eye catching, the place, the clothes, and everything just on point. The plot of the story is also really goood, so far i really like this drama

Paroxymal May 08 2021 8:02 am Can any one tell is there any love triangle, if so I will skip this

Slash May 08 2021 5:34 am Nice. It reminds me of the movie A Taxi Driver. Feel Dramatics

Sy May 08 2021 2:15 am Oh noo. I feel like this drama will make me goes lalallalalalla at the beginning and cry a river afterwards.

Pep May 07 2021 2:54 pm Love this drama. It gives me great feeling. I really love and enjoy acting of lee do hyun in this drama. Love also to actress and other's acting skills. Thank you the production team and all staff for the creation of this drama.

Jai May 07 2021 7:35 am I already watch ep 2 , it was so nice and gave me butterflies. Hope this drama has happy ending:) , Also I can't believe they're couple on Youth of May bc they are siblings on sweet home. Love This Kdrama!

Joy May 06 2021 2:01 pm I already finished 2 ep and it’s so great already and their chemistry is also very very good can’t wait for the next episodes??

nano May 05 2021 4:01 pm After finished watching ep 1 and 2, why do I feel like this is going to have a sad ending by the death of Hwang Hee-Tae? Let's see if I got it right or not.

Mahi May 05 2021 7:25 am Wait what?! Its a melodrama?! Wish that myung hee and hee tae gonna end up together

Mahi May 05 2021 3:41 am So cute

Fryingpancouople May 05 2021 1:35 am This drama is promisingly good

Joseph Tuazon May 04 2021 11:29 pm Yes . I feel this is gonna be a sad ending...

Rocky Jan 23 2021 1:47 pm From siblings to lovers hahaha I hope we can also see Lee Do Hyun act with his 18 Again daughter on his next project

Mabszxc Jan 22 2021 12:31 pm OMG!!!! i can't wait for this ❤️

Helen Jan 22 2021 5:05 am I am really looking forward to seeing Lee Do Hyun in this new drama series. He’s a fantastic actor. One of the best young South Korean actors making a name for themselves. I think he could become one of the greats if he keeps focused and works hard. From what I’ve read he’s definitely taking his acting career seriously. I hope the drama gives him a lot of testing scenes to show how his acting his developing. I hope he also gets to work again with IU sometime in the future.

A. A. Ron Jan 20 2021 12:28 am So they were technically brother and sister in “sweet home” and now they will be love interest to each other in this drama... talk about a whole different way of having to love each other. It will be interesting to see

michi Jan 15 2021 9:52 am Yesss Can't Waittt

zea Jan 14 2021 8:15 am OMG do hyun and go minsi??? Can't Wait

Solin Jan 11 2021 9:40 pm Cant wait for this !! especially wanting to see Oh Man Seok acting in this one ! him becoming Lee Do Hyun Father will be so interesting !!!

Rain Jan 10 2021 9:39 pm I just finished watching sweet home not that long ago and I loved both of their characters. I really love lee do hyun other works so I'm very excited to see how they both are going to act in this upcoming drama.

aye. Jan 10 2021 7:38 am i honestly can't wait for this! i don't know how true it is but i read somewhere that bc they unintentionally showed some romantic spark in sweet home, they got casted for this romance drama? if this is true, it's damn funny.

i saw them as siblings until the end. then i found this news and suddenly, their last moment together feels very different hahahaha. nevertheless, i am looking forward to this!

Ichi Jan 08 2021 1:14 pm What can't wait for this one omg

Lee Do Hyun fans Jan 07 2021 11:08 pm Omg! No way! ....Why???? Go Min-Si ....Please please....What about Jo Soo Min

Roann Jan 05 2021 3:09 pm Omg I can’t wait for Lee Do Hyun and Go Min Si to star together! They did so well with their roles in Sweet Home and I fell in love with Lee Do Hyun’s acting in 18 Again hehe. It’s gonna be a little weird because I’m still used to them as siblings, but I can’t wait!!!

daiz Jan 04 2021 7:21 pm ngl, i was surpised with this combo as i've used to them as siblings in Sweet Home. i'm not gonna bother with the fact that they're blood related or not. this is appropriate simply due to the fact that they're an actor & actress. i found it interesting with this power move (if the director was aware of their previous roles). regardless, i could see the chemistry between them and can't wait.

NotSoOrdinaryFangirl Jan 03 2021 6:49 am I ship Go Min Si with Song Kang in Sweet Home but yeah Lee Do Hyun and her have a chemistry as a couple i can't deny it im looking forward to this drama i really love her acting in Sweet Home it's my first time saw her and definitely inlove with her now lol

Naya Dec 30 2020 4:47 am im so excited

zana Dec 28 2020 9:28 am from siblings to this ?❤️

bokjoo Dec 28 2020 8:10 am So excited!! Their chemistry is so good at sweet home!!

Jan Dec 26 2020 12:37 am I’m excited for this drama. Lee Do Hyun stood out at sweet home and I think the scene where Go Min Si was fixing his eyeglasses was just appropriate because they finally showed how they care for each other as siblings after being so cold. He even congratulated Go Min Si’s first love with Hyun Soo.

Angel Dec 25 2020 5:45 am Just can't imagine them as couple because of Sweet Home. Huhu. But for sure I'll be watching bec of Do Hyun!! Such a great actor.. Fighting!!!

Jack Dec 24 2020 4:44 am Yea the actors are not blood related but I hope we can get some

romance scenes because they have good chemistry go min si can probably experience some romance scenes lee do Hyun because his performance in 18 again was damn good

HOPEFULL Dec 22 2020 10:31 pm lmao isn't this the same situation where park seo joon and hwang jung eum played as siblings in Heal Me Killed Me, then became a couple in She Was Pretty?

Sunsunie Dec 22 2020 4:40 pm It will not be awkward to see this pair since their roles in Sweet Home are siblings BUT are NOT blood related at all, Go Min Si's role was adopted by Lee Do Hyun's parents (had to say this simce tgere are ppl who really thought they were siblings and can't imagine being a pair in this drama. They seem to have a good chemistry and theplot is kind of interesting although it is quite typical, can't wait for this drama.

upi Dec 22 2020 10:20 am still can't imagine Hong DaeYeong with another woman.. he's still the twin's father and Jeong DaJeong's husband for me.. i'm sorry, but i can't help..

Jericho Dec 21 2020 10:08 am When I still thought they were related by blood, that scene in Sweet Home when Eun-hyeok was bandaging Eun-yu's ankles and she fixed his glasses made me uncomfortable because the way they looked at each other did not look appropriate between a brother and a sister. And when it was revealed they're not related, i think their feelings were actually romantic and their parents were killed in the story maybe to give them a reason to be together as lovers but that would still be weird since they were raised as siblings. They have a chemistry though so maybe this is why they get to play lovers in this new series.

Faith Dec 21 2020 9:26 am Yay! I just finished watching sweet home. They're siblings in that series. Too soon for them to cast as lovers. I just can't imagine...

theBerlin Dec 21 2020 8:01 am Mate I've been rooting for Do Hyun. 18 again really did bring him to the spotlight I believe. Sweet Home really just blew me away. More than the webtoon I felt I was watching a real proper Tokyo Ghoul Live Action. Yay to the sibling turned lover pair❤️❤️

cvvv Dec 21 2020 5:39 am wait omg snowdrop's story is also based on the 80s and this drama's story as well ... aaahhh cant wait for 2021 dramas .. would be so cool to see more dramas doing the 80s era as well in 2021 just like it was for 2020 but in music

Sapphire Dec 21 2020 5:37 am Looking forward to this drama. Enjoyed the acting of both actors in Sweet Home which they really did give justice in portraying the characters, especially Do Hyun as Eun Seok. So glad that Go Min Si is now a female lead.

LOL Dec 21 2020 2:54 am So the story kinda continues from Sweet Home in a "different dimension" or parallel world of some sort. He became a medical student. She gave up becoming a ballerina and became a nurse (after helping the brother perform surgery). Siblings in another drama then lovers here. Cant wait.

hellothere Dec 21 2020 2:39 am Oh, that's interesting lolol, they'll go from siblings to lovers? Now I'm wondering how that will play out since I just finished Sweet Home and can't imagine it haha
