La 17 Ani (2018)

I don't think I can say enough about this drama! I just love it! The story was simple and sweet. It just did such a good job in sticking to its original plot and letting the characters grow in it and drive the plot ahead. After I finished the drama I felt so satisfied with the ending but at the same time I didn't want it to end. Even though everything was resolved I wanted to continue watching it, just to see the daily interactions of the characters and how they go on with life, and I swear I wouldn't have gotten bored. I just loved how every character was eccentric and unique in their own way. I really liked that the male lead actually showed suffering due to his trauma and not just coldness. There we so many emotions and each emotion was explored so well I was overwhelmed. I especially loved the growth we saw in the Male Lead.

The Actors we exceptional too! They did such a good job and I was really impressed by how much they could express with just their eyes. The chemistry between the leads was just mind blowing and I just wanted to keep on watching them interact and go on dates! They are just sooo damn cute and suit eachother so well. And it was honestly so refreshing to see a mature Second Lead at an immature age of 17. The drama really wrote its characters well and gave them shapes and stuck to their personalities and habits.

There are no big plot twists but the way the story flows is comfortable and it keeps making you want to watch more because of how comfortable it it. It appeals to your emotions in subtle ways and you attach yourself to the characters. And then you realise you're watching not for the mystery or story or whatever, but just to see those characters you have come to love.

The music they used was really nice too! The OSTs really suited the mood of the drama and I loved hearing them!

I don't normally re-watch drama but, I think I am going to re-watch this one cause I just loved it so much!

The drama was just so cute and so heart filling, it was not perfect but it was something I needed to bring my spirits up and to make me smile.

Cried so much

this drama made me cry and laugh a lot. Everything was so beautiful. The chemistry between the main leads was great and the acting,plot,script was too.Besides, I loved Jennifer especially because it looked like a very strong woman, and it was,in my opinion but not the fact that she was fizical strong but the wait she could get over everything it happened even tough she wasn't a smiley person you could see that she cared about the people around her.. I also loved Chan and his friends and his uncle, all of them.The end was very beautiful, as everyone had the part of the happiness they deserved. I especially liked how character character has been developed along the way. This drama deserves the highest rating. I'm sorry I came to look at her so late, I missed something very good. Anyway, it's worth seeing by anyone. I loved her wholeheartedly. Sorry if I made some mistake,english is not my first language.

Really really nice

I feel like this drama is underrated a lot. I didnt expect much but what i got was a nice catching tale about a really unlucky girl. Im not sure i can imagine how would i feel if i got into accident and woke up years later but i believe it would be devastating. This drama got one thing way better than many others - when i was watching and i saw some classic korea cliché shaping up i was like "oh man and now shes gonna do this and hes gonna do this" it actually usually turned out completely differently than i was expecting. Even though everyone cried a lot in the end obviously (its a korean drama after all), characters didnt do those overly stupid stuff like "i dont deserve you, you are too good and im a bad person, im gonna leave because of that" or something like that, this show didnt do any of this so that was really really refreshing. Characters were very good and especially Shin Hye Sun got the 17 years old girl in adult body on point and her acting was completely belieavable (and she is really really hot). Yang Se Jong was to my taste too cold at the beginning but i guess it was according to his character. It got better as the show went on. Overall - really good underrated show.

This drama came to me in the right time.

So, so, so heartwarming. Seo Ri's story had so much impact to me. It's as if this drama came to me in the right time, when I needed it the most. To be honest, the premise was a bit far-fetched but the lessons it delivered hit so close to home. It made me want to look forward to things despite how messy everything is right now. What I used to see as a hopeless case that is my life, now just feels like an intermission — I have stopped for a moment as I wait for another awesome performance.

I love Shin Hae Sun beyond words. Gosh, she's so talented! Really underrated, to be honest. She can own every role she plays!

One of the best heartwarming drama

Thirty But Seventeen (Still 17) is definitely a must watch! Especially if you're looking for a heartwarming, romance drama. The actors (Hye Sun and Se Jong), characters, and music, are all amazing! Their relationship is one of a kind. A healthy one and always supporting each other.

I honestly super love their relationship. Woo Jin was always supportive of Seo Ri to whatever decision and choices she makes. He respects it all. He worries about her a lot but he acknowledge that she's also capable of doing things on her own and can stand in her own feet.

Some find Seo Ri's character immature, but I think her immature actions at the start were justified after what happened. Anyway, her character developed very well towards the end. Her character's transition from being a 17 years old in mind to a 30 years old adult was well made.

She did her best to stand in her own feet and become independent (tho I hope she was really given a chance to live on her own). She accepted the things that happened and decided to move forward instead of being stuck in the past.

I really hate love triangles but this one's different. They were able to pull it off nicely and didn't make it toxic (like some love triangle tropes). Chan and his friends are adorable. Chan and Mr. Gong's relationship was heartwarming, too. Jennifer, too. I love her so much.

It has one of the best ending. Everything ended so well and in a good note. I'm so glad that Rin Kim found her own happiness towards the end. They're passion for music was so amazing and encouraging. Every character made a huge impact and became a better version of themselves.

I hope more people will watch and recognize this drama. It might not have the best plot, but trust me, the character's are well made you'd surely love them. Yang Se Jong and Shin Hye Sun gave life to Woo Jin and Seo Ri's character just like everyone else.

Well, I guess this is the sign for you to watch Still17/Thirty But Seventeen if you want some feel good drama to make your heart warm! I'm so glad I found an inspiration for my next novel haha. Gotta go now to find my Crescendo (aka Yang Se Jong HAHA)💖

tadinha, sofreu mais que a juliette

assisti por recomendação de uma amiga do twitter e até que gostei! no começo foi meio difícil de me conectar com a história por achar ela muito confusa e melodramática, mas quando os acontecimentos começam a se interligarem fica muito interessante e por alguns dias eu não parei de assistir. achei bem legal o enredo inteiro, não achei nada muito fora do comum como é normal acontecer em histórias sobre tempo perdido, todos os acontecimentos me pareceram muito plausíveis até mesmo a parte dos tios da seori. porém o que mais me chamou a atenção foi o ahn hyoseop estar no elenco principal e eu só ter percebido uns 5 eps depois.... como q ele mudou tanto assim?!

Healing Story Carried by the Cast's Performances

I started this show on a whim and binge watched it over several days, and do not regret it at all. It was not-at-all what I expected: I expected a simple romance story with a twist where the female lead was in a coma for several years. Instead, what I got was a story about the importance of family and friends and overcoming adversity through shared experiences and love. The characters were all so-unique and likeable: "Jennifer" was one of my favorites, initially seeming to be just a funny, robot-like side-character, but actually hiding sage wisdom and shared pain. I loved both the young and older versions of the main leads: Shin Hye Sun killed it pretending to be a 17-year-old trapped in the body of a 30-year-old, but I also enjoyed Park Si Eun's portrayal of the young Seo Ri. Yang Se Jong's stiltedness was really fitting for being a socially inept human being. The other side characters were fantastic: Yoo Chan was an endearing nephew who simultaneously emotionally supported the lead characters and also had you rooting for him at every turn.

I felt this show utilized its run-time very well - during the ending half of the show, I felt like the screenwriter had planned plot threads from the very beginning and the plot threads wrapped up in ways that didn't have me feeling like it was a last-minute-completely-rushing ending, as some other dramas suffer from. In other words, I felt it had a complete beginning, middle, and end, which is no small feat for Kdramas, where many feel contrived in its conclusion.

I feel like there is not much more to say -- this is worth a watch.

a heartwarming drama with adorable supporting characters!

i was sceptical about the whole coma plot, but i was pleasantly surprised! woo seo ri's character was perfectly portrayed by shin hye sun, and yang se jong's calm and patient character woo jin were a pleasure to watch!

i really liked how mature and respectful the relationship between the leads are, especially woojin's patience and acceptance towards seori. her character development as she learns to adapt to her age, meet her new family (jessica and chan are the cutest sweethearts ever!!!), and develop feelings to discover what love is was very fun to watch. the main leads interraction are adorable, and their inexperience and carefulness makes it all the more authentic.

however, this drama wasn't phenomenal in any way, the story is classic kdrama (in a good way), and the scenario pretty basic. but this is a very heartwarming and fun watch if you want something enjoyable to binge during the winter or late at night!

Emociona, diverte e ensina.

Quando vi a sinopse de “Trinta, mas dezessete” fiquei curiosa e receosa pela forma como o tema poderia ser abordado, então acabei deixando a história de lado. Recentemente me deparei com um comentário sobre essa história e decidir assistir. E que grata surpresa foi ver essa história.

O drama aborda assuntos importantes (e potencialmente problemáticos quando não são devidamente tratados) de uma maneira leve, emocionante e cheia de significado. Temas como crescimento, superação e tempo permeiam toda a história (tanto dos protagonistas, quanto daqueles que os cercam - ponto para o roteiro).

Os protagonistas merecem um prêmio por sua fofura e capacidade de levar o espectador das lágrimas ao sorriso em fração de segundos. A naturalidade com que o romance deles é desenvolvido e o crescimento dos dois (como casal e individual - mais um ponto pro roteiro que não esqueceu que eles são indivíduos com histórias e ambições próprias) é algo lindo de ver.

A sinopse e as fotos promocionais do drama colocam o casal como foco da história (e isso de fato acontece), mas é muito bom ver como o roteiro não menosprezou os personagens secundários e soube trabalha-los em suas próprias histórias (todas as lições que o drama traz se aplicam em maior ou menor medida a todos os personagens).

Pra mim um dos grandes pontos positivos da história é a forma como foi retratado o processo de cura e crescimento de personagens, mostrar que esses processos não são lineares (entre os diversos avanços existem retrocessos, e tudo bem por que a vida é assim) é algo que eu até então não tinha visto e que com certeza gostaria de ver muito mais.

A história faz uso de clichês, mas sabe como fazer isso. Gostei muito do ritmo da história, e apesar de ser possível sentir uma “acelerada” no final isso não atrapalhou o desenvolvimento da trama. Enfim, vou guarda essa linda de história em um potinho e voltarei a assisti-la quando precisar de um quentinho no coração.

What endearing characters!

This show reminded me of a rich, sweet dessert. It was so delicious, but I wanted to take small bites in order to savor it and enjoy every bit of it. This is a show about the families we are born into, and the families we create for ourselves. There were so many sweet moments when I found myself smiling like a lunatic, as well as the heartbreaking moments where I kept reaching for tissues. All of the actors did a terrific job with a wonderful script. I didn't feel that there was anything extraneous in this show, nothing that felt like filler just to have more episodes. Each character had strengths on their own merit. Woo Seo Ri has been in a coma for 13 years. There are so many ways the writers could have gone wrong with this - by turning it slapstick/silly, by making her behave in an immature way throughout - thankfully they didn't do that. She suffered, sure, but she had a strength of character that allowed her to keep forging forward. She had a lovely, positive attitude. Gong Woo Gin had a tragedy in his past that changed him - he cut himself off from human contact. Yang Se Jong, who played him, was exceptional. Watching him unfold like a flower, opening up to those around him was such a special thing to watch. And when something happened and he started to close up around himself again, my heart broke. I also loved Mr. Gong's nephew and his friends, and Jennifer? She was astounding! How someone can convey so much emotion while being emotionless is amazing. I thought they were going to use one of the standard (overused) ideas for the ending, and I was so happy when they didn't! The chemistry between all the cast was just wonderful. I feel like I don't want to move on to something else yet, and start this whole thing over again tomorrow. I put off watching this for a long time because I thought it was going to be filled with cliches, but the writers took the high road and turned this into something unique and wonderful.

I also have to say that I LOVED that there wasn't the evil love rival in this. Jung Eugene as win Joo's boss was terrific, and it was a joy to see a strong woman in her own right, being friends with a man for years. They, too, had sort of a familial relationship. I felt that each relationship was so special, and because of this, I have enjoyed watching this drama numerous times.
