Hit the Top (2017)

Lesaut dans le temps, ça marche toujours pour réparer les erreurs passées !

C’est une très jolie comédie, pleine d’humour, pas idiote, montrant d’une façon légère mais juste les coulisses du monde des idols et leur aspect « jetable ».
Le personnage central va évoluer très agréablement de la tête à claque capricieuse vers l’homme adulte et responsable, ce qui est amusant sachant que ça va quand même être une formation accélérée, nous il nous a fallu 20 ans et lui ce sera en quelques mois ! L’acteur Yoon Si Yoon s’en sort très bien, il abandonne assez vite le côté jeu excessif qui est à mon avis son défaut pour trouver un ton juste et entrer complètement dans son personnage. Le reste de la distributions est excellente, Cha Tae Yoon parfait dans le manager amoureux timide depuis 20 ans, Lee Dos Hwa touchant en vieil homme qui doit accepter sa maladie, l’ensemble est équilibré, et laisse une impression de gaîté douce et chaleureuse. Un très bon drama doudou !

Only good thing in this drama is comedy.Just comedy. The jokes were great , Drill was Amazing .Woo-seung was the only thing that was a little disappointing at first, I didn't like her character and acting was pretty bad .Suddenly there was a love triangle between father and son over a girl. I normally am not fond of love triangles, but this one was uniquely horrible.
The leads had such a poor chemistry and those romantic scenes between them made me so frustrated with no depth or true romance at all.
The plot didn't make any sense after episode 15.The father sun duo was never the theme of this drama. Its a typical Messy Time travel with unwanted Romantic elements. Female lead annoyed me so much in this drama. She was super irritating.The cast was amazing !
If you just really wanted to watch a rom-com, watch a good one, not the pathetic attempt at one this drama has. So in the end, all I can recommend is maybe the first half of this drama if you are okay with leaving things hanging and just want to laugh. Other than that I cannot recommend it.

First few episodes felt really slow for me. Honestly I almost gave up until the 4th episode in which I finally felt a hook for me to continue watching. The actors were good at portraying their roles but what made me stay was how close the story line is from what really happens in the Kpop industry. I like how they showed how hard it is in the business and how it has changed since the start of Hallyu wave by using Yoon Jae's character. It's also funny how they used real idols/singers as actors for an idol/singer character. I felt like everyone was so invested in their roles but my favorite would be the kid Malseok. I thought at first that she was the most random character but I can't seem to see the series to be a success without her. Overall, it's a good series about dreams, regrets, family, and passion.
P.S. I lowkey wished they gave Jihoon's, Drill's and MJ'scharacter a second season.

«Hit The Top», aussi appelé «The Best Hit» parle de famille, d’amitiés, d’amour, mais aussi de rêves, de l’importance de ceux-ci, à tout âge. Des difficultés de la vie, et de continuer à essayer d’avancer malgré tout ce qui peut essayer de nous faire tomber. Un drama unique, surprenant même, et prenant, qui n’a pas manqué de me faire sourire et surtout rire, avec des acteurs doués et des personnages tous différents, mais également tous intéressants. Malheureusement, certaines longueurs inutiles sont présentes et ont fait en sorte que j’ai eu du mal à avancer dans mon visionnement par ennui. Ce qui est dommage parce que la base de l’histoire était vraiment originale ! Aussi, mention spéciale pour l’OST qui est tout simplement génial !

I  feel somewhat confused by what I just finished watching.

On a basic level this drama has it all, friendship, family, romance, character development, time travel, humour, music, it really has it all. But this isn't necessarily a good thing. With all of that come the responsibility to maintain all these and sadly, Hit the Top fails at this. I am unsure if this is because it is a 30min episodic drama, which gives the element of moving onto something new in the next episode, or how the story is shared. To me, there is too much focus on some characters at times that are not propelling the story forward, or not enough focus on the relevant parts of the story.

This is very evident with the time travel factor. Yoon Shi Yoon's character in the beginning is led through some physically challenging tasks to return to the past. However, once they don't work, it's like this old rerun of a saying "go back to where you belong" is said, but no work is achieved. This also relates to his lost money and again there is no true emphasis on either after awhile.. it's just left until towards the end where SO MUCH wrapping up occurs. Speaking of, when Yoo Hyun Jae is finally able to return to his past, it makes little sense. What makes him suddenly feel the need to make this a mission? How does he know he needs to return, and what happens to old Hyun Jae? So many questions that are simply flicked off in the present as "I don't know what happened." That doesn't sit with me and puts a huge dent in this being an enjoyable, believable experience of time travelling that any of the other characters seem to accept.

The romance is shaky, and very up and down. I am a huge Yoon Shi Yoon fan, and when it comes to romance, he usually knows what he's doing given any role he's undertaken in the past. For some reason this doesn't occur as naturally as it has in other dramas. Again, Lee Se Young has also proven herself as a formidable actress to me in Introverted Boss/Age of Youth, and was expecting her to shine as Da Bong's lover. But it just seemed forced. Again much like other 30min dramas, I feel they skip over many steps in their relationship once it's occurred. I guess I like to be led down the path with the characters as they fall in love, not told it's happened.

This drama has a lot of actors who I normally expect a lot from, and so perhaps that is why it failed in my eyes when their performances weren't as strong. I put this down to the busy nature of this drama, the multiple lives we are following about, and the lack of growth in several areas. I honestly found my interest in some of the stories shared to drop around episode 12, and never return. I didn't care for some of the characters, no matter how vital they were made to be to the story. Others could have been more utilised as well, but they weren't and it made it rather messy.

If you are looking for something uncomplicated that is great to watch whilst doing something else, then this might be enjoyable for you. For me, I feel like even though it wrapped up the lives of all with a nicely tied off ribbon, many loose threads leave me questioning what went wrong in this, and how it could have been executed better.

It took me quite a long time to finally finish this, I wish I would've done it sooner! It was a great drama to say the least, one of those series that redeemed itself towards the end. First off, the story was quite fascinating for me at least. I know, time traveling is nothing new, but somehow, I knew from reading the plot that I wanted to watch this. And the actors, definitely another reason why I was so eager to start watching. I did enjoy the first couple of episodes, but some of the characters seemed foolish, and the story was kind of dull. But the character development in this was something that defines a great drama. The love story between Dabong and Woo Seung was naturally intertwined into the main storyline, they did have great chemistry. Dabong's character development + the sweet story between grandpa and his granddaughter were some of the details that lifted this series from ashes. In addition, I found the OST to be very catchy, which is always a plus. Nonetheless, this drama was a bit boring in the beginning, but made its way back with a bang. It's easy-to-watch and definitely worth-while!

Plot

Okay so, this drama is a little bit different. Cause there is romance, family problems, life struggle, comedy. Like all in one. And actor's acting was superb. I can guarantee that one won't feel bored watching this. And there is lot of funny scenes too. I will recommend this drama. Because generally I do watch lot of dramas. Sometimes I feel bored to watch, because of same story and all. But this is not like this. And also I really liked the cast's chemistry. If you want something different, not boring, good chemistry, a little bit of mystery, little craziness, comedy, tragedy then you can watch this drama undoubtedly.

light hearted comfort show

i watched this as it premiered and have since watched it again at least 5 or so times , and ive got to say i do not get the disdain for how the main couple ends up with eachother. maybe because i knew when i started they would end up together it just seemed obvious from the first episode. they make ji hoon unlikable and rude imo (which is understandable, he let a homeless man with amnesia into his home... and he touches all your stuff, id be rude too),,, so i dont feel bad for him.its hilarious watching hyun jae root for his sons first love and then decide to just steal his girl it gets funnier every new watch. but if you didnt expect this i understand how it could make you upset. the comedy and tropes this drama uses are my absolute favorite truly nothing wrong with this drama besides the time travel plot line is iffy when you think too much but i dont mind since its not important if you just trust it works in their fictional universe. very comforting show with a good soundtrack. hidden identity is done really well here and the identity reveals are drawn out for different characters in the show which keeps it entertaining the entire time because the reactions are hilarious.

Yoon Shi-Yoon ❤❤✔

Regardless in the story, it's driving me crazy thinking where does Dabong came from, from the year of 94 if 93 he time travel to the year of 2017, then at present he quite remember something happened from the year of 94 ( which was the email he sent out to the president of world entertainment if 93 he time traveled to present 2017)

The acting is so amazing, its like they are acting like in real world, very genuine. I like it so much, it makes me more laughed- DOESN'T makes me waste of time watching :) Da Bong is Awesome ! Adorable! Funny :) I like the story except the part which I noticed there's a little bit complicated between 93-94 :(
Actors and actresses are so so THUMBS UP!

They are all oppa, especially yoon shi yoon I keep searching on his face and actions where he can be ugly in the whole episodes so I could be stop myself admiring him but it seems he's so awsome and adorable on everything. His 90's hair style looks him so cool! Adorable! Hope 1 day I'm gonna see him in person :(
22188- Dabong ❤ THUMBS UP!

SO MUCH POTENTIAL ...... BUT FALLS FLAT IN THE END

started out amazing but towards the end ...... it was monumental MESS!!!!

Towards the 2nd half of the drama. you can sense the direction of the show . In stead of focusing the MUSIC aspect of the show.... the writers decided we needed to insult our intelligence with a Love triangle that frankly DIDNT add any value to the show.

I would LOVE the show to show the struggle and rise of the trainee Idol WITH the help of the time travel storyline BUT What they did was made it in some "let me fall in love " with FL angle

lets NOT even start with nonsensical last 4 episodes Which i pretty fast forward because it was WORSE than watching PAINT DRY !!!!!

I decided to watch this show for two reasons: first, I have just watched Moon lovers Scarlett Ryeo and  I have never though it would break my heart as it did... So I needed something to laugh and have fun. For this reason I was looking for something light to watch, and I remembered the video of this show's song "Beautiful, beautiful" that I have seen countless times on YouTube, so I decided to give it a try. It was the correct choice. I liked it very much because it made me laugh a lot. I'll never forget the La La Land scene.
Ok, it's not perfect, the story plot has some lacking -as almost always when time's travels are on it-,  and sometimes it goes too slow (it would have been better 25 episodes or so instead of 32). On the other hand I don't know why but I found kind of difficult to believe the feelings and/or the acting of the female main lead towards the main lead.
But... It's soooo funny. And Yoon Shi Yoon it's so good in his role. Only with these two reasons its worth watching it, but also the story is cute, about problems and situations every one of us has to face in their lifetime: friends, family, work and dreams, and the seconds leads are ok too.
So, if you need something light to cheer you up, to watch this show and to listen the main song are really the best option to get it.

•Story- a student has to hide that he wants to pursue music while his family is in entertainment business.a girl is betrayed by by her best friend and boyfriend as they are sneaking around behind her. And then there is our main lead who was a arrogant,self centered idol of 1993 travelled to future.
•Acting-there is a lot of character development scope and it was done beautifully for each character. Kim min jae as lee ji hoon tries to fit into what the world by not hurting his parents with his dreams and gives up his passion of becoming idol but then the ultimate opportunity follows him.he was good as a friend who provides shelter for his friends and and makes peace with the changes going on. Lee se young as choi woo seung was average. The only scene I liked was when she was leaving her friends apartment and divided the thing, her screen sharing with cha eun woo was also nice. Yoon shi yoon as yoo hyun jae nailed his character as he is shown travelled to future. And as we know todays modern gadget MOBILE makes you go crazy and he did that amazingly well. He just blended into the character. Cha eun woo was also left a remarkable screen presence inspite of less screen time.
•Music-it was average but BGM is done well
•Rewatch-only few comic scenes of instead of whole drama.
•Conclusion- good drama maybe a single watch with few rewatchable comic scenes and romantic scenes. Ending was a bit confusing. Writers tried hard to do a proper ending but it was complete mess for me
