7 First Kisses (2016)

When I read this web drama was going to happen, I have to say that what got my attention it was the actors that were gonna take part in it.
It is to much handsomeness for just one show kkk. But it turns out it was pretty funny too.
There's not much of an elaborate plot, but if you just looking for something to kill some time, this is it.
It is pretty much a long CF kinda movie, so don't expect too much. the short episodes bring you that felling, "ohh nooo, Park Hae Jin is already leaving", but then Ji Chan Wook comes and everything is better again kkk, and then he leaves, and then another one comes.

I actually watched it as I had nothing to watch right now. And I am so happy tbh. I mean it isn't a drama nor some web series but I really enjoyed it. The duration of every episode is pretty short like about 12 min max but they all were entertaining. I was literally smiling the whole time a new male lead came. LEE GOON GI was so cute and handsome throughout the episode. PARK HAE JIN was just amazing and he was looking so good. JI CHANG WOOK was really handsome and I had a smile plastered on my face the entire episode. KAI was so adorable and a good boy in the ep. I really liked his part of story tbh and the role really suited him. TAECYEON was really cute and I really liked how manly he was. LEE JONG SUK was so so so cute tbh. I really loved him. LEE MIN HO was so good in the episode and he really went well with his character. But I was confused as who she ended up with like she still had to choose between the seven and I don't think so they showed what happened between her and LEE MIN HO. So, I think the series is at a cliffhanger. But I really want her to end up with KAI or JI CHANG WOOK. I mean that would be so prefect. And I would recommend the series as it is not long and entertaining and its a good choice to binge watch.

The Parade of Pretty

So tune in I did; which wasn’t hard to do, really, with each episode topping out at a very compact 7-8 minutes. And y’know what, for what it is (an unabashed, extended CF for Lotte Duty Free, in case you were wondering), this show’s a fun little ride.

And the cast of men she has to choose from is beyond your wildest kdrama fantasies: Lee Joon Gi, Park Hae Jin, Ji Chang Wook, EXO’s Kai, Taecyeon, Lee Jong Suk, and Lee Min Ho. Wow!It’s all in good fun with each guy being very distinct and having their own little story to embark on.

Light, harmless fun, if you can keep your lens dialed firmly to fluffy, mindless fluff.

Ok yes, this is basically an hour and a half long CF but do you think this is the only one? Lol According to current research, every korean drama contains anywhere from fifty to 150 advertising placements. Bad Papa broke the record at a whopping 400. So, setting that incredible fact aside, I found this particular CF very watchable. It was fun, it didn't take itself seriously so ended up being whimsical. Our h gets a chance through some magic to have six first kisses. A woman hands her a bunch of cards each with a black silhouette. Once the magic begins, our H ends up in an alternate reality where she is still the same mall employee but where Lee Joon gi isn't an actor but an IT hotshot who happens to be her childhood love. But the minute things started heating up, our h is launched back in time to the same moment where it all began. And so our H discovers this is yet another reality where Park Hae Jin is her rich boss. He's also into her. But even this time when they kiss it rewind again. This time she gets the message that every time she kisses she'll end up reversing time. So this time around she decides to not kiss Park Hae Jin. And so the story progresses from a childhood oppa romance with Lee Joon gi, to an office romance with Hae Jin, to an action romance with Ji Chang-wook, to a student teacher rom com with Kai as her student but Kai is still an EXO member, to a melodramatic makjang with Taecyeon, and lastly shooting a CF with Lee Jong Suk. Each person basically teaches her something about her self and every time she meets the person she always thought was out of her league, confesses their love, her confidence increases until one day everything reverses yet again. This time walking right up to her is Lee Minho. And she hears that he's a writer so because everything in the past went so well she ends up being bold enough to flirt with him. I liked the idea behind the drama. That sometimes the only thing standing in our way is our own hangups. Also, I like that they defended the idea of dating different people instead of just having one experience because that's what makes you mature enough to find the person who is the right fit for you. Now, sure they were all gorgeous, no doubt, but I don't know why Kai's part was my favorite! Maybe I'm biased and so what but he's so beautiful and charming and I lost it when he started to dance. Very fun watch!

Calling all Oppa Addicts!

Adorable. Simply adorable. It felt like a choose your own adventure book, but with hot Oppas. It's every Kdrama girl's fantasy and if you know that going in you can love it for what it is; a long daydream we've all had. It was also surprisingly funny as each storyline poked fun at a Kdrama trope. It was a short watch but thoroughly enjoyable. It was so much fun and seeing all my Oppas in one drama made me giddy! It's definitely worth the watch especially for a long time Kdrama fan

It's too short to really do a whole lot with its premise, and I didn't find myself particularly eager to watch each episode, but it's a fun and light-hearted story so long as you don't take it too seriously. I will admit that I found it difficult to pick a favorite suitor. With the exception of one potential love interest who feels shoe-horned into the story, the rest of the male leads are all fairly interesting and attractive. (And just like in an Otome game, there's someone for every viewer, lol.) Not all of the lovelines personally worked for me, but I did quite enjoy some of the others and totally could have seen them expanded into a much longer story.

I guess the best word to describe this web drama is cute. Ultimately, I'm not going to recommend it, but I'm not going to discourage anyone from watching it either. It was a fun premise I would love to see expanded into something longer.

I want to put a warning here though for anyone who might be going into this expecting certain things from the romance(s). There isn't a definitive romantic ending. (Or alternatively, there are six, sort-of seven, of them. However you want to look at it, lol.) If you are going into this expecting her to ultimately pick one guy to be with, you are going to be disappointed, because it doesn't happen.

Since this is essentially a big commercial for Lotte shops, for what it is it is nice.
Episodes are short and most of them interesting.
For a series called 7 First Kisses, there is no kissing at all, which is a bit disappointing.
Still, fun and quirky short episodes, especially 6th episode with Ok Taecyeon which had many typical soap opera tropes.
Overall, nice little show with incredible cast, great for killing time (if you don't mind Lotte advertising which was at moments cringy). Would recommend because episodes are so short and can be watched in one slow workday.

7 almost first kisses

Hmm... You can't really call this 7 first kisses when there were no actual kissing involved! Exactly like what Soojin said, "What kind of reward is this if there's no kissing?" HAHA!

Very short episodes to promote Lotte Duty Free but i still enjoyed it. When Choi Jiwoo said, "You need to choose just 1 person and the story will continue." Man, what a tough decision! She is one lucky girl!! Each episode showed different guys and in a different scenario, all using the usual kdrama tropes we know and love! If I were in her place, i will probably choose Lee Joongi (based on the story), Lee Jong Suk (based on the character), Lee Minho (based on looks) and Ji Chang Wook (based on the hotness).

Rating: 7/10

It's a lot of eye candy, which I'm sure we all appreciate, and I really liked how the little stories went and how the drama started to make fun of kdrama tropes in some of them — but there's really no overall plot. I was kind of waiting to see how it would play out at the end, but it was really only given a few minutes.

I might've been asking too much from an AD, but I was hoping to see one of those things where the main female lead realizes that there had been someone beside her all along, but all we got was another one of those random guys without any explanation as to "why this guy out of all of them?".

This fulfills what it proposes! And that is it!

I was looking for a drama to relax and watch without having to pay much attention. I was already curious about this drama, so I started to watch at noon and finished less than 2 hours later. This was such fun!

"7 first kisses" have just 8 episodes with less than 15 minutes each and is very fun to watch! I really think this is a drama that put all dreams of each "drama girl" and made a show, haha. Really, I imagine myself in the place of Soo-jin all the time! So many oppas for pick and kiss, OMG.

If you are looking for something quicky and light for the watch, I recommend this one. Just warning that we have an open ending here, you can be frustrated for that, but I really didn't think that this made any prejudice for the drama. It is something to watch without pressure or high expectations. Made me laugh a lot!

If you are looking for something deep and with an amazing story and plot twists, look for something else. This is a drama made for be simple and clear. I enjoy this because made me relax for the heavy stories that I've been watching.

7 first kisses

It is an advertisment - well really fun one, it really felt more as a drama. Episodes are short and not many - also remember to check 7 first kisses endings!
And what the amazing cast we have here - my favourite: Ok Taec Yeon and Lee Jong Suk (I know them from other dramas) and Ji Chang Wook (I still need to watch something with him).
Every episode is different story, so it is really a fun watch, cause stories are totally different - my favourite was with Ji Chang Wook.
It is really worth checking if you like any of this actors or just want to watch something different.
5/10 - only because I could not rate advertisment higher, it felt wrong to me.

Hilarious makjang parody that leans hard into all the tropes

As others have already noted, this is basically a long-form, multi-episode commercial for Lotte Duty Free (and also everyone's fanfiction, lol). I picked this up out of curiosity during a lunch break, because it had Lee Jong Suk, Ji Chang Wook, Lee Jong Gi, Ok Taec Yeon, Park Hae Jin, Lee Min Ho, and Kai. With a cast like this, how can one not be curious?! (Especially since it also required little time commitment.)

When Lee Jong Gi first appeared, all those dramatic close-ups and cheesy eye contact made me cringe in painful, second-hand embarassment. But it didn't take long before I started snort-laughing out loud. Whoever came up with this must have had too much fun condensing K-drama themes and plotlines into the most ridiculous short vignettes. Each episode leaned so hard into familiar tropes that I found myself cackling. Ok Taec Yeon's episode in particular really captured the hilarity of ridiculous makjang soap opera plot lines (they really blew that trope wide open in the bonus ending scene with the convoluted family tree reveal 😂). And Ji Chang Wook especially, did not mail it in, managing to somehow still deliver a swoony and convincing performance as a secret agent reminiscent of his role in K2.

It's hard to grade this one, to be honest, so don't be too deterred by the low ratings. As long as you don't take this too seriously, it's a silly romp and entertaining enough for quick "fix". (Make sure to watch the bonus endings for each "first kiss" as well. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqfqR4Lc3PK_5uULCgxLJrPLNRwx3fPR2)
