This was a lovely and nostalgic look back at coming of age in the 80's in a close knit neighborhood among friends and families who truly cared for and looked out for each other. Did such neighborhoods really exist? I don't know anybody who grew up like that but it's nice to imagine that some people did. I think that one key to enjoying this drama is not to get hung up over the romance involving Deok Sun. The drama is much more than that. Many of the best scenes were the ones with the three moms but the dads were great as well. Great acting by the ensemble cast. Esta resenha foi útil para você?
A Walk Down Nostalgia Lane.
I'd recommed this series to anyone who wants to watch an almost realistic portrayal of family relations and troubles. It somehow managed to compile all the emotions and instances that we love and fear all in one.Narrated by Duk Seon, we switch the perspectives through several characters that grew up together. My personal favorites were Sun Woo and Jung Hwan - they did not stand out but there was a certain charm about how they handled stuff.
The parental relations were the highlight - they have the ability to make you tear up.
By the time I reached high school, the internet and smartphones had taken ove. Me and my friends, who still didn't have them, could slowly see communication decline in favor of banal frivolities such as selfies and cliques. I wish that I had grown up somewhere during Duk Seon's times as the meaning of "friendship" was taken with much seriousness than today's times. Parental ties are something that no amount of technology can conquer and I'm glad that Reply 1988 attempted to depict the two sides of life in a relatable manner.
Overall, its a worthy watch with a lot of life lessons. Youth is a terrifying period of life, but all storms are meant to pass. And they will, eventually.

Más que un kdrama, es una caricia al corazón
No importa cuantas veces lo haya visto, me seguiré riendo, llorando, emocionando, etc como si fuera la primera vez. Es mi kdrama de comfort que siempre veré cuando siento q todo está yendo mal.Lo que más adoro de este kdrama es que te hace simpatizar como hija, hijo, como madre, padre, hermana, hermano, amiga, amigo, etc. de verdad cada personaje tiene su propia historia y personalidad tan única que es muy fácil encariñarse con ellos.
Apesar de que el romance es uno de los temas principales, para mi no fue tan relevante porque la relación entre los personajes y sus desarrollos son más importantes en la historia.
El final deja un sentimiento de nostalgia y de calidez al mismo tiempo, para mi fue un buen final.
El cast se siente como una verdadera familia y vecindad, hicieron un trabajo maravilloso eligiendo.
El ost es maravilloso, creo que de mis cosas favoritas en este kdrama, la elección de canciones va tan bien en cada situación.
Es un kdrama tan fácil de ver que jamás se sentirá pesado, lo recomiendo a toda clase de público, no se arrepentirán.

I saw this word on the internet a while ago and instantly thought of reply1988. I was born in 2000 and never lived in korea but watching this always makes me feel nostalgic. Simpler times, simpler problems, the sweet innocence of youth, joyful shared experiences, warm families and honest friendships. I've watched way too many kdramas in my life time to be considered healthy and I consider this one as my all time favorite for its insane re-watchability. the story telling is incredible and the actors do amazing job playing their characters. there is no filler character as they all add something to the story and it has great pacing
watched the other 2 of reply trilogies after this one and that was kind of a mistake. if you want to watch all of them I suggest to watch 1988 one the last as its the best one out of the three. reply1988 is the only one which take the "who could be the husband' mystery seriously and the actors are way better. I'm not gonna lie I was suffering with a huge 2nd lead syndrome first time around but made peace with it real quick.

Youth at its best and most wholesome
What can I say? I laughed I cried, I awed and I booed. This story really made me believe in Kdramas as wholesomeness. Man this was so good. I was thinking about it when I wasn’t watching it. I was shipping characters together. Acting was incredible out of everyone and I just really loved learning about Korean culture through the eyes of this neighborhood. I loved traveling back in time like this to a time when things weren’t so freaking disconnected. My favorite kdrama to date.I will say however that I will never ever ship Choi Taek and Doek Sun together at all. I’m team Doek Hwang idc. I love Go tbh so I’m a Taek fan but come on he does not have any chemistry with Doek Sun.
I think in general this drama portrayed the ups and downs of a youth well lived. A youth that was spent on all the things we should spend it on. One where every personal moment seems like the end of the world but rlly that moment is just that a moment. How dramatic we are as youths that everything matters so much and yet they matter so little.
This drama encapsulates that within it.

Beautiful Coming of Age Drama
I’m always a big fan of coming of age films and series that showcased the development of the characters. This is show is set in the eighties timeframe that is probably one of the best period in history where fashion in my opinion is timeless.The amazing dynamic between the 5 best of friends is extremely heartwarming. Shout out to the supporting characters/family members who are portrayed by veteran actors/actresses creates further depth to the overall series.
The ‘how I met you mother’ style of making you guess her eventual partner is what make the series captivating as you pick up some clues along the drama.
However, the eventual reveal of the husband may be disappointing to some but then it again it sends an interesting message to the audiences. ‘Always capture an opportunity and not let it slip, you never know when it will be your last’
Also, at the end of the day, timing is everything.
Highly recommend to watch if have not already.

Good drama, issue with ending
Enjoyable show even if it did take me a long time to finish it. I will say I'm forever going to be upset that the writers evidently changed their minds about the romantic endgame for Deok Sun partway through the production because the flash-forwards to the future husband had a seeming personality transplant partway through. I feel like that's because they started out with one person in mind and changed their minds later on. While I like the character and actor of who ended up with Deok Sun, I'm going to always be not happy that it didn't go the other way.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

It is very entertaining because the drama contains family, friendship and love. I couldn't imagine that their life is the same on where my country is. I love the Sung Deok Soon and Kim Jung Hwan, but on the series they are not together in the end. I have a feeling that It is Taek who will choose by the lead actress but I am fanatic of Kim Jung Hwan who fell in love with her but he never said to the girl how much he loves her. The crazy moment was Kim Jung Hwan who will said to Deok Soon how much mean to her but take it back. And the moment that Jung Hwan run to see Deok Soon to be a partner on the theater wherein Taek was the leading on that. He really cried on that part. If he have the courage to said to the girl. They will be the lover until the end. #sadAs the drama goes to ending, I really cried because all of the memories was fallen apart. It is really enjoying. I hope that it will watch on our country not only on Korea.
Most appreciated the cast to whom I really cried. Thank you and God Bless :)

A beautiful drama, with beautiful memories both for watcher and story-wise
This drama. What can i even say about this drama?This drama is the one that I keep going back to because i never want it to end, the one i keep crying to even though I already know exactly what is going to happen. The one I keep recommending to all of my friends, my family and I ask that we watch it together because I love it so much. The one that I sing along to the songs when I’m watching it and just want to rewatch and rewatch.
Perfect story, perfect plottwists, perfect use of emotions and perfect recreation of scenery.
I wouldn’t recommend any other drama the way I do this one, you really do have to watch it, it’s The one.

Everything from the music, each character development, the friendship, the acting and the FEELINGS depicted of having lost your chance because you were too late and didn't make the right choice were SUPERB. I felt Jung Hwan's pain and felt as though I was just watching my life replay on the screen. I felt every emotion Jung Hwan went through. It was so gut wrenching but it was also a way to let go of the past. I still rewatch this show from time to time. It's so timeless and is a classic.

Reply 1988 visiting youth
First let me start out by saying I wanted to write this review for myself to capture what I felt after watching this drama, though many people have written reviews already. This is the first drama I have watched that focuses on childhood story. Since most of us reminisce about our childhood one time or the other I thought of giving this show a chance. Things I liked about the show are :1. It portrayed simpler times of people’s lives.
2. Everybody wanted to have friends who will always remain by their side.
3. The bond between people are very important whether you are in good or bad place.
4. The comedy was light and was not forced. It blended well with the story.
5. Funny goat bleating music was funny and apt for the mood of the show.
Things I didn’t like about the show are :
Certain characters were not given their proper ending. People who already watched the drama know what I’m talking about. Most of them would have felt that. This is probably one of the main things that did not agree with me apart from that the show was worth watching.
Finally, it was sweet warm and cozy show. Would I watch it again? Hmm... maybe after a long time when I have forgotten all about it.
For those who want to give this a try, I would say, do try it and see, if you like your childhood period !

Utterly Unforgettable
Out of the 100 or so Korean Dramas I've watched in the past 18 months, this is one that I will never forget as long as I live. I thought it was as near perfection as a drama can get. Everything about it was impressive, from the story to the sets to the acting to the message. Sweet, moving, hilarious and precious. I fell in love with the whole cast, and now want to watch everything many of them have done. The young people as well as the seasoned vets put on a show that won't fail to impress you, I promise. I also want to give kudos to the writer(s) of this brilliant slice of life drama. It just doesn't get much better than this.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
