The story concept is good but the drama was not
It was a fun to watch drama but has many flaws
The drama felt like forced extended
It's unique but tried too much and just kept on bringing to many turn of events
The characters were not so very good
There was pretty much no character development
Only the main characters were given a lot of attention while the side characters played very few role and other than those roles had no any importance they were pretty much completely ignored
They like literally tried to focus on romance but even in that department it lacked alot
The chemistry between Kang chul and Yeon Joo was not so Good there were very little romantic moments
Even the kiss scenes were very cringy just too much of sensual stuffs
The ending was rubbish it was a forced happy ending
The drama kept on showing how a story is flawed in the webtoon but yet kept going in the same boat

Firstly, I'd like to say that 3/4 stars for the story are dedicated to the first eight episodes. It was so gripping. The storyline was insane, the chemistry between characters wonderful. But, as soon as everything became a "dream", I lost touch of Kang Chul. His character seemed so different (understandably so, he knew and experienced different things), and I had gotten so attached to the first version of him that the new him felt lackluster. The first half was so fast-paced which made it so hooking, but I think that's also what brought about its downfall. The story wasn't ready to be fleshed out over 16 episodes. The writing got sloppy, confusing, and filled with plot holes. By the end, it became so unbearingly slow, and I was dragging myself to finish it.
However, I did enjoy Jong Suk's acting and the OST by Park Boram.

this was quite a ride...
W – Two Worlds is a fantasy romance about a man (Lee Jong Suk) and woman (Han Hyo Joo) living in different worlds. Yeon Joo is a surgeon living in the real world, and her father is the author of the popular web-comic W. And Kang Chul is the main character of that comic. Things become complicated when Yeon Joo’s father decides to kill off Kang Chul and Yeon Joo gets pulled into the comic world and comes face to face with it’s hero.W – Two Worlds was quite a ride! There’s a great fantasy story in place with a very capable cast. There are also a lot of twists and turns in W. Never get to comfortable because you just never know what’s going to happen in this crazy world.
Lee Jong Suk is a perfect fit for Kang Chul. First, he completely looks the part, and it was easy to see him transition from a comic character to real one. He really brings to life our comic hero who is cool, suave, rich, handsome, and kind. No wonder Oh Yeon Joo falls head over heals for him!
Han Hyo Joo plays Oh Yeon Joo. Her normal life is turned upside down when she is pulled inside her father’s comic. She then finds herself having to repeatedly save Kang Chul’s life while trying to figure out just what is going on with her father and the crazy scenario she has found herself in.
Through all of the craziness, Kang Chul and Yeon Joo realize how much they need each other. They become an unlikely couple who would do anything for each other. They go through a whole lot of difficulties, but these two had a nice chemistry and get to share some very lovely couple moments together.
The first few episodes of the drama were good, but a little dry. But things really get going around episode 4. The intensity really ramps up as Kang Chul and Yeon Joo keep finding themselves in one desperate situation after another.
There really are no “rules” in this drama, so just buckle up and get ready for one crazy event after another. There aren’t a lot of answers provided as to how everything works, so be prepared for that too. It’s also a long road to happiness for our couple.
I love the whole concept of a “character” having to learn he’s from a work of fiction. It’s unbelievable and devastating for the person involved. And Kang Chul is the one at the center of that identity crisis. The drama really explores all of the different aspects of Kang Chul’s character as well as how his constantly changing situation effects his thoughts and actions.
The drama has some really nice songs on the soundtrack, but I was disappointed that it didn’t seem to utilize them very well. They were mostly just relegated to the ending freeze frames rather than being used throughout each episode. I think the “feels” would have been a lot stronger if the songs were better utilized.
Overall, W – Two Worlds was one fun and crazy ride. With an action packed fantasy story, there was never a dull moment. And I really loved Lee Jong Suk and Han Hyo Joo both individually and as a couple. They brought these characters to life and made for one wild, romantic journey that I will certainly remember.

The plot sucks you in and suddenly you are addicted
I'm really picky with my dramas but I really loved this one. You love the characters you are supposed to love and hate the characters you are supposed to hate and this drama makes you channel all you emotions to the show. Everyone I recommended this drama to either liked it or LOVED IT. I will admit, this drama has plot twists almost every episode and some people might get tired of it because you don't know what's going to happen next. But that's the reason why I LOVED IT. Although the romance plot can be somewhat cliché, the main plot and the non-romance sublots are unique, unconventional, unpredictable, and very entertaining. The element of surprise is what makes this drama so addicting so idk how good this would be rewatching it. The ending could have been improved (it was not as satisfying as I hoped but it does bring the drama to a well-rounded close) and there we're some of weird editing mistakes here and there (disjoint scenes) but that can be easily overlooked. Overall, this is an amazing drama, highly recommend.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Lee Jong Suk and Han Hyo Joo were great
The story/plot of this drama is so unique . I loved that it was about webtoons and in particular about one where Lee Jong Suk was the main character. I like the concept that the main female character was able to enter the webtoon world of W. I also like that this drama was not so easy to predict what was going to happen next. With most dramas you can kind of predict what could happen next but with this drama you could not. This just made it even more interesting and hard to wait for the next episode to see what would happen. As I said earlier there were a few things in the drama that could have been better or explained better so that is why the story get a 9.5 and not a 10.The cast for this drama was so perfect. I don’t think I could see anyone else playing those characters. They all did a great job. Especially Lee Jong Suk and Han Hyo Joo. Last time I saw Lee Jong Suk was in the drama Pinocchio so it was great to have him back in a new drama and the same goes for Han Hyo Joo. It has been a number of years since she was last in a drama. She has done some movies recently but it was nice to see her back and paired with Lee Jong Suk. I think they had great chemistry together and it showed on the screen.

W. W w w… This is the hardest drama to rate yet. Why? Because I have such mixed feelings on this show. Even though it had a ‘happy ending’ why did it leave such a bitter taste in my mouth? Was it the rushed ending? The fact that the characters have the ability to draw ANYTHING on that tablet and use it only to draw cars and medicine??? They could have literally got themselves out of any situation, why is everyone so dumb. But let’s start at the beginning shall we?This show started off really strong. What this show does well is that every episode, it leaves you on your toes. It is an undeniable fact that the story is intriguing. The plot line in itself is so fascinating and original. The idea of a parallel world that was effectively ‘fan-made’ but then the characters come to life? The characters disobey its creator and become their own person? And a real life person enters the cartoon and becomes part of the plot. The story was so interesting and I loved that so much was happening. But that was also the problem, I found that I was constantly stressed. I couldn’t enjoy it because everyone is constantly in danger. So much is always going on.
And of course I have to talk about the main couple. Once again, so many mixed feelings. I mean obviously I shipped them, but I was left feeling constantly unsatisfied. Through all the drama, they barely got to do anything as a couple. Then that rushed happy ending. That’s why it was a letdown for me.
All in all, it was hard to rate this show. I wanted to give it a high score considering the storyline was so good and intriguing all the way through. But I also wanted to rate it poorly since I couldn’t enjoy this drama, it was such a mess and caused me too much anxiety. And it left me with a rushed ending. I wanted to go somewhere between 7.5 and 8, because it doesn’t deserve such a high score of 8, but 7.5 doesn’t highlight its brilliance and originality. But if I had to choose between the two, I suppose a 7.5. Simply because I can’t look back on this drama with a positive view. I wouldn’t recommend it, it was painful and stressful and didn’t provide enough payoff at the end. It fails to repay the audience for the angst and pain they just suffered, there is too much negative with not enough positive. This drama just leaves me with contempt.

It is definitely a drama to watch!
It's been about two years since I've watched this drama. I've just finished watching While you were sleeping and as i was looking at the actor i was reminded of the drama W. So i decided to watch it again.It was the first k-drama that I had watched and it still gives me the spark than it did two years ago.
I think the storyline is amazing. The way they travel from the real life to the cartoon life facing obstacles was fascinating and the relationship between the male and female lead is great.
Some scenes made me laugh and some made me cry and this changes in emotions through the drama really portrays how good the acting was. It has drama, action, romance as well as heartbreak.
So, I hope this will help you before you decide to watch the drama

A drama where the story looks like a puzzle!
W is one of my favorites dramas ever! I love how the story starts rolling and you don't understand anything but has you watch more you start putting the pieces together and everything makes sense! I think the idea of a different world inside a Webtoon is pretty interesting!I think the music was amazing, it perfectly fitted in the situations and the songs were just beautiful.
The actors weren't just amazing but also very handsome. I loved the confused face of the bodyguard!
With this drama I got to know Webtoons, that are actually amazing!
Another thing I loved about this was the fact that it was full of plot twists that made me say "Really???!!!!".
It mixes romance with mystery, suspense, drama and comedy which ended up being an amazing mix.
The series has a lot of feeling that made me cry sometimes and then laugh, or say "Awww" because of the romance and in the next second scream at the characters because they've made the wrong decision.
One thing that I didn't like much in this drama was the amount of flashbacks from previous episodes, which sometimes made the drama a little tiring and I had to skip the flashbacks.
I liked the ending, it ended just like I wanted, but I think it could have showed what happened in the world inside the comics.
I have to give credit to the writer of the drama because all these puzzles and plot twists must have been hard to think of, so he must have a big IQ.
I would recommend this (and I did) but I advertise everyone to to pay attention while watching it so that they won't get confused in the end.
I would rewatch the series if I could do it with a friend, so that I could explain them the things and it would be funny to see their reactions.

Beyond the fantasy drama
Definitely one of the best dramas I've seen in a while."W Two Worlds" is a thrilling, well acted and visually glamorous k-drama that's a homage to old film-noirs and detective stories. Filled with classic heroes and villains, cliffhangers, blazing guns and screeching tires. The slow-paced, old fashioned romance added to this nostalgic feel as did the mysterious music score.The story is very interesting, although the scenes keep jumping from real world to webtoon world and vice versa, it is not confusing at all and both leads' acting are impressive. The actor who plays the cartoonist is outstanding too.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
