Idade da Juventude (2016)

A Soulless Trainwreck that Wastes Viewers Time

This is quite possibly the worst drama I have ever had the misfortune of watching. Normally I'd write an indepth review but this drama wasted enough of my time as is with it's nonsensical garbage plot that was completely all over the place. From murder to domestic violence to sexual assault it seemed like the writer wanted to throw in as much shocking plotlines in a story that could have just been a normal coming of age story. It's a completely emotionally flat drams that sucks the life out of you.

Outside of the horrible script and plot the only saving grace for this drama is the cast, they really did a solid job in navigating this mess of a drama.

I held on for so long with this drama and it continued to disappoint even more so than the previous episode.

this was the first kdrama i've ever watched (or at least finished) and even after watching countless more dramas this one never ceased to be my favorite. i don't even know where to start because every aspect of this drama is just perfection but let's start with the characters.

without giving anything away this drama has a way of writing these characters that are so reletable but at the same time so painfully sad and complicated and confusing. and the more you think about why these characters do what they do you the more you understand why this drama is so brilliant. i usually don't like when aspects like mystery get into teenage dramas but this one made it blend in so well that i couldn't even complain, i just appreciated. it was so hard for me to pick a favorite character because they're all so beautifully written and acted but finally decided on yi na and jin myung(even tought i'm such a ji won) who i believe to be the most complicated characters.

as for the stroy it is one of those dramas where it looks very simple and light hearted but on the contrary it is very deep and philosophical. it's so well written and directed and acted. it has so many lines that i thought about for days (especially yi na's story about the smell) the realitonship between our main girls is just so beautifull and realistic. they fight and make up, they hate each other but love each other at the same time and no matter what they're always there for each other and i loved how that was the main theme of the show, friendship and not love.

and the ost fits the drama so perfectly with every song that plays at every scene. but my favorite and the most touching will always be butterfly. that ost still gives me the chills.

i'm sorry this review is a mess but i love this drama more than anything in life and just have so much feelings about it but i'm not very good with words, i'm good at feeling things and one think i can say for sure is this drama will make feel... a lot... i watched it 4 times and still cry like a little baby at some scenes and laugh my ass off at others. i recommend this drama to everyone who enjoys quailty.

So this is my first review ever for a drama!
Well... this was definitely very different from what I've ever seen in Kdrama Land. Beware before watching this drama because you will most likely have withdrawal syndrome after finishing it.. just like me!
All of the characters are so relate able and the 5 protagonists' acting was superb! For someone who was watching 5 dramas simultaneously this summer (Including: Uncontrollably Fond and W) I always waited for the weekend for this drama to air.
I gave this drama an almost perfect score in all departments but felt that the ending left me wanting to know more of their individual stories! A second season for this one would be awesome. Male it happen JTBC!!

Oh and lets not forget the soundtrack of this drama which consisted mostly of english indie songs which I loved. However there was one korean song in the drama sang by a girl which was frequently played (it is probably named butterfly) that I could not find anywhere :( If anybody could let me know the name it'll be great! :)

Great great show i wish there were more episodes and more awareness of the show. I dint even know about it only by coincidence. Its a very unique and serious short film about school roomates and issues that most students go thru when put together in a shared environment. Each character was unique and had something special going on about them. Theres not really a main character per se but the little girl had most of the story revolving around her. Shes so cute and gullible but not that innocent. Theres romance, adult content and buckets of tears and laughters. Must see

This goes for both seasons 1 and 2, I would rate it higher if it wasn't for the actress change but I mean it's cool, it was a nice funny show that was literally a slice of life. It made me laugh, feel emotions, I liked the whole feeling if they're a family and bonding just like sisters but also fight like it. I like that everyone has their own stories and there's some suspense between everything. It doesn't even fly by like oh this is rushed, it was the perfect amount of time and character and space. I guess I'm just thrown off by the change which sucks but overall, worth watching. Good laughs and all that jazz.

À regarder

C'est un des premiers drama que j'ai regardé! Je me prend de nostalgie encore à regarder certains épisodes par ci par là :) Ce n'est pas vraiment un drama qui se revoit plusieurs fois sans s'en lassé mais définitivement un incontournable que je pense chacun doit regarder une fois dans sa vie.
Le concept est assez spécial et difficile à comprendre au premier épisode mais une fois lancé, je ne pouvais plus m'arrêter et ce fut un binge watch jusqu'à la fin!! C'est très agréable de voir des female leads aussi fortes que celles que l'ont peu voir dans ce drama. Elles n'ont pas leur langue dans la poche et les scénaristes ne l'ont pas non plus car des sujets très tabous habituellement sont abordés ce qui est fort agréable! Très rafraichissant.
C'est un drama touche à tout qui je pense peut très bien convenir à un habitué des dramas ou un amateurs qui cherche à commencé son aventure dans ce grand monde. Touche à tout aussi dans les styles car le scénarios explore des angles assez inattendus sans que ce ne soit incohérent (je n'en dis pas plus car je ne veut pas spoiler).
Mention spéciale pour la musique que j'ai trouvé incroyable et qui m'a fait découvrir des artistes dont je suis fan aujourd'hui!
En bref, ce n'est pas LE drama celui que je ne voudrais jamais oublié mais il reste dans mes coup de cœur malgré tout.
Je le conseil fortement!!

Sometimes you just have to give drama a second chance, especially ones that have such great reviews. I tried watching this while it's on air several times, but I just couldn't get pass the first 4 eps. When season 2 was out, I decided to give this a second chance, and I love it so much I wonder why I ever disliked it. I am now halfway through season 2 and am low-key anxious that there's no season 3. I love how relaxing the show is, just showing regular day to day life with minimal drama, yet relatable characters. In some ways I can't pint point, it reminds me of My Ajusshi. Though this one is much brighter and cheerful. Perhaps it's the plot focus on mundane life goals on career, love etc. vs. focusing mainly on birth secret, cancer plots.

P.S: starting a new drama while killing time doing your cardio is best for getting over the awkward, sometimes boring introductory, first 2 eps.

One of the dramas that is dear to me. If slice of life is what you`re looking for, this is it. I just love the idea they had for this drama because it really worked. Putting different people with different personalities and different backgrounds in a small shared house created a masterpiece. I like all of the characters too because, there are always bits and pieces from them that you can relate to and learn from. Freeing yourself from a toxic relationship, admitting to yourself you`re the one in the wrong to how one small lie can be very troublesome. And I really loved how they always have this misunderstandings going on, they still care and try to find ways to compromise. And how all of them have dark past that came to light but had closures. And it had a cliffhanger ending so season 2 is promising.

i liked this show because the story line put them in situation where they had to grow as a person and adapt to their surroundings in a semi - realistic way. This made an abundance of character growth and decent plot development. the acting is also pretty solid , in big emotional scenes the actors make you feel the emotions that their trying to reflect and it can get pretty surprising how much that'll hook you in. i didn't really pay attention to the music for this show but i was never annoyed by it so i think that's a plus and the re watch value is pretty good sometimes i find myself skipping through episodes only watching my favorite parts but then a big event will happen and i end up watching the full episodes. overall i think that if you enjoy character development and high running emotions with some comedy i think it will be worth it for you to check out.

Önce arkadaşın mı kendin mi

Hikayenin hemen içine çekildiğininiz, her karakterin ayrı hikayesi olan bir diziydi. Hikaye o kadar yumuşacıktı ki diğer şeylere o kadar odaklanamadım. Konusuna tam olarak şuydu diyemem ama net olarak önceliğinin kim olması gerektiğini çözmeye çalışan üniversite öğrencilerini izledik. "Önce kendilerini mi önemsemeliler yoksa etraftakilerin düşünceleri mi daha önemli ya da öylece sadece para için mi yaşamalılar?" Bunu çözmeye çalışan bir grup genç kızın etrafında dönüyordu bence. Ah bazen oyunculukların rahatsız ettiği oldu. Çok abartılı oynuyorlardı bazen, tepkiler mimikler biraz fazla kaçıyordu. Çekim açıları da eh işteydi. Böyle hayran bıraktıracak kadar güzel değillerdi. Ama sonrasında ne olacak acaba merakından izlendi. Sonuç olarak:
Üniversite hayatını gitmeden görmek isterseniz, kendini anlamaya çalışan bu öğrencilerin hayatını merak ediyorsanız izleyin derim ~~

It was not what I expected....

I started it expecting it to be a sitcom like WELCOME TO WAIKIKI but it was different from it. It had comedy, suspense, drama and romance. It dealt with heavy and dark topics that women have to deal with like workplace harassment , abusive and manipulative relationships and trauma. At first the 5 protagonists were not very likable but as the story progressed I began to connect with the characters and like them. All the main characters are so well developed and interesting. They all deal with their own struggles in their own ways. The bond and friendship between these girls is so cute. They all support and protect each other like family. All the actresses did such a good job. It is such a good drama to watch with friends. I think it is not as appreciated as it should be.
