um i don't know if it's a review but looking at others i wanted to write this .

Jang na ra :- Be wild in life ,
Be wild as long as you don't break any laws.
Don't try to spare your feelings to much , experience as much as you cans so you won't have any regrets.


God it was good , just what I needed . I am 19 years old . And recently i was feeling very down
Before that i watched 2 ep of it looking at the bad comment i decided to drop it .
But then I started to watch it with 0 expectations. it was a light and fun drama to watch with very good motivation and life lessons .
i liked it a lot i know it has its cons but still . And it was my first time seeing something like this "cheering squad" god it was another kind of experience
I really enjoyed it .
FL was a little childish though
I hate love triangles i hated this one and how FL
handled it was not great .
Park Jung woo was cute. god i wish to see him more as a main lead character.
It's a good drama. Just don't expect much.
it's enjoyable.

I enjoyed it very much ♥️

It's been a while since I encountered a drama that made me laugh and cry this much.

A lot of the dramas that are coming out lately are thrillers or action based, and although I enjoy those genres I was starting to become tired of it. It's true that this one has a bit of mystery, but it's mixed in all the drama and romance and although it's part of the plot it didn't bother me that much.

The characters are fun and likable. The protagonist, Haeyi, is presented as a character who is not in her best moment in life, always worried about money and working to support her mother and younger brother. But she never gives up, she never loses that fun and bubbly personality, and I really enjoyed that. She made me laugh out loud in almost every episode.
Jungwoo is portrayed by Bae Inhyuk and I'm glad that he's playing a main character this time. I really liked how he always had something good to say to Haeyi, and although at the begging he wasn't (they didn't know eachother), by the middle of the series he was very reasonable and understanding of the situations she was facing.
Sunho tho, it was kind of infuriating how he kept insisting that he liked the protagonist. She told him many times that she wasn't interested in him, and he even kissed her without her consent when she was drunk??? Nope.

I'm not really a fan of love triangles, especially if they're not well executed. SML should have given up on the protagonist by the middle of the drama, and Jungwoo should've had more screen time with Haeyi.

Another thing that I didn't like is that the bad guy doesn't really have a sustainable reason to dislike the main character and wanting to kill her. He wasn't even part of their team, he was only an ex-member of the group, so I don't understand his point.

Overall, I liked that this drama gave a message of courage and cheering to the audience. Never give up on your dreams, on your life. There's always someone cheering for you. Even if you can't notice them, there is someone ♥️

Love triangle at it's worse.

The story picks up at the point where a cheerleader club is looking for new members.
Little do the new ones know, that the cheerleader club is almost closing due to prophecies and controversies.
Captain Jungwoo is trying his best to save the club.
On his mission, he meets Haeyi as well as Sunho, who are joining the club for ulterior motives.
During their time in the cheerleader club, strange things are happening, which are linked to a past accident.
And so the mystery unravels. Slowly.
Or... at least it should.
Typically, the focus should be on solving the mystery and revealing the truth little by little.
Yet, there is a long drought until you actually forget, what the whole show is about anymore.
The writer clearly had his focus on the love triangle of Haeyi, Jungwoo and Sunho to the point, where even the mother of Haeyi and her brother are rooting for either of them.

I knew what I signed up for. But I didn't know, how bad it could have been implemented.
While I enjoyed tiny bits of the love triangle, it was just a pain to watch overall.
Haeyi, a bubbly, energetic girl yet childish and immature.
Her entire character didn't grow// there was no character development at all.
Sunhos story plot is well-developed, his character was interesting. I was rooting for him for the first quarter of the show, until he showed his obsessive side. Since then, he has been a red flag walking on two legs.
Jungwoo was as fascinating as a piece of plain white paper. No character depth in his character, no real background information. He just existed in the drama and happen to be the main lead.

Main leads beside, the side cast was great and I really enjoyed watching them dork around and rooting for them, even more than for the main lead couple.

Overall, the show was a mess.
I thought the title reflects it content.
A happy show that lifts my mood.
The drama started well and I was intrigued, but it lost its interest fast.

Cheerleader content? There are rarely any scenes. It's mostly just practice, which showed the same move.
Mystery? Literally butchered down. And those tiny bits we got are underperforming.
Romance? Yeah. No. Chemistry of the main leads was missing.

The only saving points were the side characters, their friendship and their story arcs.

Cheer up should have been a happy, motivating show, yet it left many of us frustrated, wanting to finish fast or drop it.

Promising start, but...

Cheer Up had the potential to be THE YOUTH DRAMA, with such wonderful characters, but the script was flawed. They extended the love triangle for unnecessary time, the SML kissed the female lead when she was drunk, the SML had more time with the female lead than the FML had with her, the female lead sometimes paid more attention to the SML than FML, and a momentary breakup of the couple, which was not necessary to have happened.

Is it one of the worst stories? No. But it's not one of the best either. I loved the characters, Theia, HaeWoo and the other couples, but I didn't love the script.

A recommended Binge Watch if you're into cheese

Plot-wise the show was definitely lacking. But I have to give it up to the characters and case for making me finish the full 16 eps of the drama. The characters are sweet and the actors do a good job of immersing me in their stories. There was some huge potential lost but the drama never promised me more than it delivered. It felt like your old-school high teen drama and was perfect for it. I skipped through the ending a bit so I have to say I have no clue what happened to the villain and idc cause he was never the point I suggest if you read this review before watching you ignore that part too!

It was nice to see Bae In Hyuk in a happy cute role, looking forward to his future dramas. I need to watch more Han Ji Hyun too

feeling down? this is a must watch! really refreshing

this is the kind of thing you will want to watch if you're having a hard moment or simply bored.

as a college student myself, watching kdramas placed in college makes me really excited! it actually gives me the feeling of "woah, i'm 19 and i should live this moment to the fullest". cheer up wasn't any different.

as someone who also enjoys cheerleading, i was already expecting to like this drama. i got so excited over their massive training and the performances. the outfits were mesmerizing and it all just gave me the feeling of wanting to be happy.

do heyi is the perfect female lead for this type of drama. she's cheerful and funny, never gave up and kept bringing happiness to others (me included). i just couldn't drop this even if i wanted to at some point (we'll get there) because i would miss her screaming + her cringe moments. she might be one of my favorite female leads oat! alongside with eun danoh from extraordinary you (my favorite drama ever) and tang xue from skate into love (witch is also a drama about overcoming difficulties mixed with sports).

the love triangle got me a little frustrated i'm ngl, but i liked how they worked things out at the end (even if i wasn't team jungwoo...) with sunoh still being friends with her and most important caring about jungwoo when he got stabbed. the scene where the two male leads talk over dinner a while after sunoh got rejected made me really satisfied. i feel like not a lot of dramas make this closure happen and i think is really important, specially for this plot. i also liked how everyone else became a couple and it wasn't out of the blue, like all of them already had something going on from the beginning and the chemistry was great.

finally, the only thing actually stopping me from rating this 10/10 is the attempted mystery. like yeah it was kinda thrilling in the first four episodes, but to keep it going on until ep 15? that was a lil too much.... they dragged until they couldn't. i would have enjoyed more if it was just a silly lil drama about silly lil cheerleaders! but as it is, i'm giving 8,5/10

the end actually made me tear up a bit. i liked the message and i felt really motivated after watching every episode, so that's a bonus.

Completely falls off...

This kdrama started on a really good note and I was sure it was going to be at least like 8 out of 10. Well, about half way through I began to realize I was mistaken. The thing is that the premise shows a lot of promise. Characters are likable (except for Sunho because he deserves no rights) and it's enjoyable to just watch them do their little cheering thing. But the more you go on, more you realize that most sub-plot serve simply to waste your time. There are 2 filler episodes in there where nothing happens for an hour. Even the finale is kind of that way too. The main mystery seems super intriguing, but then gets revealed half way through and ends up being useless at the very end. Unfortunately I feel like my time was wasted watching this and I don't recommend it. It's not horrible by any means, but you can find way better sports kdramas out there.

Good. Vibe

This drama was good to watch especially if you miss school / high school.
I wish Canada provides such hype activities or just activities in general in school.
I love the chemistry of the group. The hype. The motivational lessons for people who’s losing hope or at the edge of their lives.
It gives me lessons to stay strong and not give up.
Some part are giving me a what vibe…. And like their purposes. I don’t understand the antagonist… but it’s okay ahha.
I legit forced my self to finish the last two ep as I’m loosing motivation to finish it but I told my self… not to do it as I always do that LMAO.
The ending was good. Decent to end like that.
Of. Course I got emotional cuz ykow it’s the end.
But … in conclusion. I would prob just re watch some part that I want to watch. I love the Prophecy tho HAHA. That was a good one lol.
Anyways. Good to watch when you’re bored of other genre. Love the other love teams as well… hehehehwhwh.

Worst worst!!!!

I'm channeling all my energy into rooting for bae in hyuk as an hardcore fan of his I hope his career keeps progressing from here onward irrespective of this "drama", as for this show I knew from the get go it would be circled around angst and triangle stupidity but nonetheless I'm only waiting for it to end to know if I can endure it because following his work good or bad has it limits too. and Korean writers need to realize there fan base has progressed way beyond continents and giving us mediocre wrapped up in lazy wrapped up pretty is just not doing it....the troop is either sad ending, triangles,angst,or just bland/lazy storys. I pray they channel there creativity into something productive enough without damaging there fan base it can't be easy yes but still Fighting. I won't lie a lot of drama towards the year ending did not satisfy me at all the most disappointing is till (love in contract). Hopefully it gets better Amen

Cheer up...but this got me depressed ?

Worst drama I've seen lately

A drama that failed because the hottest topic was "which male character should the female lead end up with"

"Cheer Up" had everything to be the best college drama of 2022, except a good script. The focus on the love triangle was tedious and unnecessary, while supporting characters had better stories than the main cast, they were barely explored. A wasted potential for a cast full of rising stars from hit dramas, I really waited a lot of this for being Han JiHyun's first lead role.

I liked it at the beginning, the cheerleader set up was their strongest point but it was put aside to center in the mystery that literally doesn't make sense, everything at the end is thrown into a bad joke. As for the main characters, they barely have development. Hae Yi is immature and takes bad decisions, the no solved Sun Ho's obsession for Hae Yi is the worst, it made the love triangle tedious and annoying, JungWoo has no personality nor an interesting background, like he is so plain... no one of them is memorable neither lovable. The main couple breaking up in the last episodes, writer reallydid the bare minimum.

don't listen to the haters (even though they have a point)

Cheer Up is a drama that I am so glad I finished despite the negative reviews and the several setbacks. I initially dropped this mid first-episode but picked it up again out of boredom and as an attempt to get out of my kdrama-watching slump, and it was one of the best decisions I ever made.

STORY - 7.5/10

The main themes of Cheer Up are youth, romance and friendship. In those aspects, Cheer Up portrayed these concepts very well. Though the exposure we get to this story was not something that immediately caught my attention, the writing and the strong foundations of the relationships between characters, romantic, platonic and familial, how they developed and how the story progressed definitely kept my attention. The mystery aspect was interesting, and I liked how they tried to make it as unpredictable as possible – they would pin obvious suspects that would make us think certain characters were the culprit, when in fact all of them were wrong. There were plenty of twists and turns that, unlike a lot of other mystery plotlines in other romance dramas, felt like they were planned from the beginning, and I enjoyed how everything started to tie in together perfectly.

I enjoyed the main romance and how it developed. It felt so natural to me, in all of its mess and constant turns, in Haeyi’s constant confusion and Jungwoo’s reluctance. And I love, love the dialogue towards the end where Jungwoo tells Haeyi that she shouldn’t suffer alone. “Two is better than one.” It really defined the way I perceive their love for each other; the kind that perseveres, the kind that heals, and most importantly, the kind that holds your hand through even and especially the most difficult of days.

The friendship and the found family dynamic formed within Theia was something that also really stuck with me. I love found family dynamics – in fact, it’s a running theme in almost all my favourite media – and the one formed here definitely did not disappoint. I loved that they didn’t just focus on the romance and also placed importance on the friendships and comradery between the characters. It was extremely heartwarming as well as necessary for us, the viewers, to get a full scope of how much they’ve grown closer as a team.

I loved the ending. It was so beautifully done, and it definitely touched my heart. I loved the side couples, even though it funnily enough felt like a case of “pairing the spares”, I love that they at least built up enough chemistry to make me root for them. My favourite side couple had to be Minjae (who I felt was let off the hook too easily for what he did, but it is what it is) and Sunja. They were so cute, and I wish they had more screen time to fully delve into their development as a pairing. Also, am I the only one who caught the nicknames they gave each other? Sun and Min-min? They’re adorable.

Now, my main issue with the drama’s storyline is something everyone else has been complaining about. And that, you guessed it, is the love triangle. I don’t particularly care for love triangles anymore, but this one really took the cake. In fact, the love triangle was the very thing that made it difficult for me to continue, especially when Junho was at his worst. Let it be known that I did NOT like Junho, though he is definitely an interesting and complex character, just like the FL and ML, and has room to mature. He had no awareness of boundaries, even when Haeyi rejected him properly and indirectly countless times. Since the beginning, he was only chasing after her relentlessly because he couldn’t get over the fact that she was the only girl he couldn’t win over – then after the rejections, the fact that she lay out her baggage and the reasons she couldn’t like him back, he falls even more in love with her. It’s insane, and it ruined a drama I would’ve rated even higher if not for the frustrating dynamic he added onto the show.

Alongside this, there were a lot of plot holes in the mystery part of the story that I didn’t quite understand. A lot of things either didn’t add up or weren’t properly explained, when I wish they were. However, they weren’t bad enough to ultimately deter my experience watching this show further than it already had.

Overall, I feel like the strength of Cheer Up were its characters. Which makes sense, as once again, it ties in with the core themes of the show.

ACTING/CAST - 9/10

Han Jihyun and Bae Inhyuk absolutely pulled off their respective roles. The last I saw of Inhyuk was in My Roommate is a Gumiho, where he played a second male lead eerily similar (and just as annoying) as Sunho. However, I loved how he allowed a character like Jungwoo (who seldom allowed himself emotion) an ample amount of complexity to understand who he was as a person. In fact, I think if it weren’t for how well he played Jungwoo, he wouldn’t have become one of my favorite MLs in kdramas yet.

As for Han Jihyun, her acting was 100% my favorite out of all the other characters in the show, perhaps mainly because of her role as the protagonist. I love how diverse she can be in her facial expressions, and played the role of Haeyi perfectly.

I have nothing to say for the rest of the cast, as they all pulled it off perfectly. I hope Kim Hyunjin goes through the rite of passage and gets casted as a good ML just like Bae Inhyuk did, LOL. He acted very well.

MUSIC - 8/10

Most songs, mainly the cheer songs, are iconic and memorable, considering music is one of the integral aspects to what they do as a cheer squad. ‘Higher’ is still stuck in my head.

REWATCH VALUE - 6/10

I’m going to be honest, the love triangle focused episodes were already a struggle to get through. I felt like punching the screen because of how much the stupidity bothered me. Definitely wouldn’t want to go through that again, but I would love to relive the cute Jungwoo and Haeyi scenes again.

OVERALL - 8.5/10

A drama that was worth it all despite its imperfections. Definitely for people who’re looking for something to get invested in, both in a good and a bad way.
