Age of Youth 2 (2017)

Agréable

J'ai beaucoup rit lors du premier épisode. Ce drama est le digne successeur du premier Age of Youth! J'ai adoré celui ci aussi, il aborde tout autant que le premier des sujets tabous et on revoit des personnages que l'on chérissait lors du premier sans s'attacher et se baser trop sur ce dernier. Il est complet en lui même et ne dépend pas de son prédécesseur. J'avoue que le changement d'actrice pour l'une des personnages principales m'a un peu attristé ayant vraiment découvert l'actrice lors du premier drama mais ce n'est pas pour autant gênant compte tenu du talent de la nouvelle pour reprendre les mimique faciale de son personnage!! Encore une fois, les musiques m'ont touchés et fait découvrir de nouveaux artistes ce qui est un vrai plus pour un drama!!!
Personnellement cette saison d'Age of Youth est moins incontournable que la première, elle est agréable mais cette fois ci ne fait pas particulièrement parti de ms coup de cœurs. Je fut tout de même vraiment heureuse de le visionner et je n'ai pas l'impression d'avoir perdu mon temps.

I started this one right after I had finished the first season and my instant reaction was, "I can't watch this! Eun Jae has been changed, there's no Kang in it! This is so different!"
I gave up on it and pretended that season 2 doesn't exist, until I started missing watching all these girls and how they dealt with life.
So, I gave it a shot and tbh this is just as good. Sure, it took me some time to get used to the new actress playing Eun Jae, but I later realised she did a really decent job and tried her best.
As for Kang not being in this season, she had her own reasons out of the show but does make guest appearances. I think this part was also necessary to show since life is never constant and you have to face changes and get used to them. That's exactly why adding a new housemate was genius.
Helped the story grow and made room for more plots.

This season, they again made us turn our attention towards issues like, dealing with trauma, childhood trauma, getting over a breakup, family problems, unfriendly housemates, long distance, getting into a relationship right before joining the army, moving on from years of friendship, what happens to unsuccessful entertainment groups who don't make it big, and in one of the episodes they also have a very brief conversation over lgbt. It can be perceived in both a progressive, or a primitive and homophobic kind of way.

(also lol, they keep saying stuff like @eun jae has changed" // it cracked me up)

And these are all the reasons why I absolutely love both the seasons of this drama. It's so unique and meaningful. It's fresh and relatable. It gives you motivation and courage when you see these girls are humans just like us and they experience mundane problems and deal with them together.

Must watch! 10/10 tbh :')

When you watched season 1, you can`t help but compare it to season 2. And if anything, I prefer season 1. Because first and foremost, Eun-jae`s character, I have no words. I know the OG had prior engagements but they could have found a better actress to replace her. No hate on Jiwoo but her acting was so awkward the entire drama. Also, what made them think altering Eun-jae`s character like that is a good idea. It just made Jiwoo as Eun-jae an unlikeble character when she was my favorite in season 1. And saying Yi-na`s story was done that`s why they gave her a guest role, that`s probably a lie. We all know come on. The only redeeming part of this season are the stories of the OG characters. The 360 character change for Ye-Eun was amazing but they still left some of her characters from season 1 which is good. We also get to see Jin-myung`s work life in a new light. I would have love to see her together with Jae-wan more but oh well. And my favorite of all Jiwon. Her past wasn`t tackled during season 1 at all so I had no idea how they`ll make her past story but wow, that was so out of nowhere lol. There`s also one lacking part tho. I was expecting more of her and Sung-min`s developing romantic relationship in this season but was disappointed. I really hop they make a third season after all these years.

Hayat devam ediyor ama dizi değil

Birinci sezonun tam devamı gibi gözükse de bence ayrı dizileri olarak yayınlanmalıydı. Bir kere baş karakterlerden birini değiştirmişler. Bir diğer karakterde dizinin başında gözüküyor sonrasında yok. Neden? Neden yahu? Madem devamı niteliğinde çekiyorsunuz neden oyuncu değiştiriyorsunuz. Gelen oyuncunun oyunculuğuna lafım yok kadın oynuyor düzgünce sadece ona ait olmayan bir rol olduğunu hissettiriyordu. Yani büyük bir eksiyle başladı dizi benim için sonrasında da biraz topladı zaten. Şimdi burada biz bizeyiz Bilgeshi. Doğru konuşalım eğlendik dizide ama biraz kötüydü be. Senaryo güzel ama o baş karaktere gözün takılınca olmuyor yani. En azından yan karakterler çok iyiydi. Özellikle de Jung ye Eun. Yahu ne kadar güzel anlatmışlar kızın hikayesini. Bak bu izlettiren etkendi işte. Sonuç olarak:
Yan karakterler için izlenen devam niteliğinde bir üniversite dizisi izlemek istiyorsanız sizi buraya alalım~~

i dropped this a few years ago bc i was so annoyed w the "new" eunjae. her role along w her acting made me skip her scenes it was overall annoying but i am soooo glad that i picked this back again, somehow it completed me ??? its fresh slice of life description made me realize that everything happens for a reason, no matter how good or bad the situation is there's a million ways that its cause is a motive of the future (like when jo eun was introduced as a new tenant, when ji won fainted at the club; it's all connected with others) anyways, it's nothing comparable as s1 and still no jiwon & sungmin :((

If you want to understand Age of Youth 2, you need to watch Age of Youth 1, as the story of some of the girls still runs. The actress that played Eun Jae in Age of Youth 1 got replaced, and I didn't like her. Already her character was quite annoying-perhaps that was the idea behind her character, but at least the first actress was cute and childish in a way, whereas the one in Age of Youth 2 was just annoying, thought that she deserved the break-up.

Overall I liked the drama, my favourite character has to be the beautiful and charismatic Song Ji Won, which played so well and she was just so fun to watch. I was also let down by the drama (twice ) as there was huge potential to promote activities which would raise attention towards female violence and rape in a society which usually turns away from these things which are lamentfully seen as shameful. I think they should have involved the girls in societies around the Uni campus but also writing in the Uni magazine about these real life stories that happened to women with the aim of forming a group of people that shared their experiences and gave support to each other. I think considering Korea is nr 1 country for suicidal deaths, they had such a great opportunity to promote thorough this drama different ways how females can seek support (and not just hide it from everyone) after violent attacks and how to be united in cases like this. Most probably the viewers of this drama are mostly girls, so all I have to say is, be safe, be wise and seek support, dont be alone!

It is one of the best Kdrama I've watched. Bith Season 1 and Season have a great story. There is life realization that even as watcher, u will force to look back on how is ur life had been going, and how u live ur life so far.

I don't like the girl who portrayed Eun Jae. There is something where she lacks. I don't feel any chemistry between her and Jung Yeol. During their break up/ closure scene where Eun Jae beg for Jung Yeol to love her again, I don't feel like crying. Tbh, I felt the second hand embarrassment for her. I love both season 1 and season 2, but I don't like how they write the character of Eun Jae in this Season. She only thinks about her love life most of the time.

But over all it is worth to watch. I fell hard to every cast especially Park Eun Bin. She is a great actress as in big WOW.💗

I had thoroughly enjoyed the first season and was looking forward to watching the second season but it turned out to be a disappointment . I feel like Eun Jae's character changed for the worse ( not just the actress but also her personality is so different from the first season where she was introverted but strong and thoughtful ) as she became a stereotypical flower girl , acting all cutesy and focusing mainly on her ex ... Jin Myung was my favourite protagonist and still is but I feel like she could have gotten more character development . Ji Won cracked me up as always with her wits and quirkiness . As for Ye Eun I definitely liked her more in this season , seeing how she learned to be less judgmental, superficial and more considerate. Jo eun's cold and rude behavior got on my nerves at first , but eventually she lets down her guard and shows her true self . In brief , although this season didn't meet my expectations , I can still say there were parts I found enjoyable .

I love this drama. I watched this because of atty woo young woo and I did not expect to like it so much. Finished the 2 seasons in less than a week. Season 2, for me, is a lot better than season 1. It was funnier and we got a lot more jiwon and sumin scenes. I'd be really disappointed if we dont get a season 3. There are times in kdramas, even great ones, where there are filler episodes which is really boring(looking at you goblin). This one never bored me. This is a great coming of age drama and on my top 10 kdramas of all time, along with reply1988, my love from the star. 100% recommended!

First off, I'd like to say, I reallllllly hope they come out with an Age of Youth 3!
If you've watched the first season, you will know that two of the main actresses are no longer in the show. One appears once or twice over the season while the other has been switched for a new actress. This annoyed me when I first heard it but I was surprised at how much it actually bothered me the further i got into the show. The hints of humour at the actresses new appearance helped my opinion of it greatly.
The music in this show is incredible! I have downloaded the entire soundtrack, it's that good.
The story is generally really good and mostly relatable, especially as a student in an all girls flat. Sometimes things aren't totally explained in the drama, this allows you to think about it, but I think it wasn't used well in all cases. I like that in the drama things do not end "Happily Ever After" or the complete opposite of this. It somewhere in the middle sticking to it slice of life genre very well.
I probably will watch this again, especially if they bring out a new season!
