Autumn Tale (2000)

CRIEI MUITA EXPECTATIVA...

e acho que esse foi o meu problema. Fiquei ansiosa pra assistir já que li várias resenhas dizendo que era um marca no k-drama.
Achei a história ok, mas acredito que daria pra ter o mesmo resultado mudando alguns pontos. Ela é bem rápida e movimentada até um pouco depois da metade, depois ela vai se arrastando.
O elenco é incrivel, todo mundo novinho, muito bom ver eles em idade tão jovem. A OST é gostosinha de ouvir, eu gostei bastante.

Recomendo pela experiência de assistir um clássico dos doramas, do que pela história em si, embora não me lembre de ter visto outro com a mesma temática.

Out of the 4 'Endless Love' installments, this one is the worst.

The mothers giving up their daughters to one another so easily was off putting, weird and irrational. This shitty start will linger with you for the remainder of the drama. Of course with such oldies they slap you with the classic terminal illness trope to give you an ending only your grandmother would love.

Out of the 4 Endless Love installments, this one is the worst. Spring Waltz, Summer Scent and Winter Sonata were better than this. This one isn't well written, they push hard to maximize the angst and sadness while neglecting anything else. Song Hye Kyo was gorgeous and remained so 22 years later!

Don't watch it from Amazon/KOCOWA, they cut some scenes here and there, and later on from episode 9-16 they shave off 5 minutes from every episodes. Watch the TV version or even better the DVD version if you can which got extra scenes where every episodes reaches +1h and got separate deleted scenes.

At first I watched this Drama, because I didn't want to watch the "on air" Dramas. It's not that I don't like the current Dramas, but after a few weeks of learning for an exam I wanted to finish a drama quickly. So I decided to watch "Autumn's Tale". I finished it after one weekend and I am very glad I watched it.
Since DotS I thought no other Drama can touch me more. ... Okay, know I know it better^^.

Story: I LOVE melodramas. So I thought the Story would be interesting. I know this Drama is from 2000. I thought "Oh it's so old, I don't wanna watch it...okay, maybe it is interesting to see how was Korea in 2000". The Story sounds ... can I say simple? Two people who believe they are brother and sister, but than they have to face the truth, that they are not blood related. Then they loose the contact with each other and years later, they meet again.. I was very excited to see the reaction of the two of them.

Acting: The Acting... Hm, yeah. I think when it comes to melodramas Song Hyekyo is the best actress I've ever seen. Since her Acting in WTWB and DotS, she is my favourite Actress. Now I know why...People can say about her what they want (in relation to her tax scandal) but when it comes to acting, I think she is one of the best. SHK acts as Yoon Eunsuh who lives with parents and a brother until she gets to know that she isn't the daughter of the Yoon-Family. SHK was 19 years old when sie did this drama... She did a wonderful job. When she was crying, I cried, too. When sie was laughing, I laughed, too. But honestly It didn't surprised me very much, because I knew before, how a great actress she is. The big surprise was Song Seungheon. I watched "My Princess" before and thought he is a good actor but not more...After "Autumn's Tale" I love him. He was so emotional. He cried so hard and...I didn't want to see it.
In my opinion the best Actors and actresses are those, who make you cry with them...laugh with them...hate with them... . And he did it. He played the big Brother who loves his sister very much. He would do anything for her, so when they are forced to go different ways, it breaks his heart (and mine, too). The emotions he delivered with his acting were brilliant.
But...now I come to the biggest surprise...Many people may not understand, but before I watched AT I haven't watched a drama or movie with Won Bin (except "Botherhood", but when I watched the movie my focus was on other things). I thought Won Bin was one of those Actors like Lee Minho. Please don't misunderstand me, I like Lee Minho but I think he is a little bit overrated. So I thought Won Bin was very attractive (and he is!) and a ... average actor...But he isn't. He is brilliant. He acts as Han Taesuk, the best friend of Joonsu and a playboy. Honestly, at first I didn't liked Taesuk, but in the End, he was the character I pitied the most. His character changes the most and after a few episodes I pities him so much I wanted to drop the drama. Whenever he was on the screen I cried. Won Bin delivered the feelings and emotions of Taesuk so real that I thought he IS Taesuk. Know I now why Korean love him so much.
The other characters and Actors/Actresses were good, but for me not very memorable.

Music: I love the OST. The Song I love the most is Prayer by Jong Il Young. I don't know her, but the song suits the drama the best. So I recommend it to you (If you like Ballads).

Rewatching Value: I will watch it again, definitly.

All in All: I love the Drama. It is the best Drama I have ever seen. So I recommend it to you very much...BUT if you don't like a sad drama or you don't want to cry much, then you shouldn't watch it. This drama isn't a comedy, but a heartbreaking romantic melodrama. I don't know if there is drama, which is similar and newer...so I can't give you a hint...

i know the drama is old, but I am sure there are people like me who don't know if they shpuld watch an old drama, so I think it is never too late for a review^__^.

I originally heard of this because of Won Bin. I'm very thankful that I found this drama.
The story line is... well written. The acting is well performed. The music is well played.

Watching this drama makes me want to stay closer to my family. It makes me appreciate life and know that anyone could get taken from you in a flash.
In this world... You don't have time to be bitter, and act foolish.
It also tells me that finding love isn't easy. The ones you love, may not feel the same. Next move is just to move on.

This is a drama that I'd recommend anyone to watch. You can learn a lot of valuable lessons after watching this.
