A Definite 'Must Watch'
I am a lover of Rom-Coms, they lift you up and make you believe that your perfect romance might be out there somewhere. 20th Century Girl is one of the ones that makes you think that may be some day someone might love you more than you know, that love could be reciprocated and it was all worth it. Teen romance is something so magical and this film really makes you feel it.I cry every single time I watch this movie and I've seen it repeatedly, trust me! The acting was amazing, the story is both heartbreaking and beautiful in equal measures and the cinematography really got me too. I would recommend this one to anyone who wants to feel all the emotions of a first love, it's such an excellent movie.

it was so good at first, until it wasn't.
Honestly, I love this at first. It's such a good choice for you if you want to get hurt by those "sad" movies you are always looking for. But then I realized that its ending was so unnecessary, such a waste. I don't think there's a good point for the writer to twist the plot at the end, they twist from a great start - a colorful and bright opening - to a waste of ending like the efforts that the characters bring all the time ended up fading away with a pointless ending just for wrenching viewers' hearts.It will be a great movie if they execute them with another plot, the brighter one. Because sad movies aren't always the best.

how it went
Well I was literally heartbroken after watching this drama. I couldn't get myself together for weeks and I was asking myself and the universe why it ended like that.But...
Overall the drama was great and I will recommend it.
It reminded me of my high school years and I felt that I would gladly return to them to experience similar love. A slight twinge of jealousy.The only problem would be watching this drama again, I'm afraid I wouldn't get my act together again, so I'm waiting for the right moment in my life just to destroy myself again.

Perfeito.
Não tenho palavras para descrever o que estou sentindo. Não sei se tenho palavras o suficiente para demonstrar como meu coração está despedaçado, mas ao mesmo tempo quentinho. Que Filme sensacional, incrível, maravilhoso, perfeito, indescritível, uma bomba de emoções e sentimentos. Um amor tão puro, forto, intenso e incondicional. Uma verdadeira obra de arte, um verdadeiro romance. Será que um dia alguém me amara assim?? Será que um dia amareu alguém assim?? Não importa, fico transbordando felicidade apenas apreciando romances como este.Espero que Bo-ra, com este final, possa finalmente seguir sua vida e ser feliz, como ela merece por ser uma protagonista explendida. Tenho certeza que era isso que o Woo-ho queria.
Em outra vida, espero que dê certo, esse amor tão improvável, mas tão inspirador.

Realistic love story
I usually hate unhappy endings, but honestly this was really worth the watch.The warmth, the fuzzy feeling of falling in love for the first time.
Not all love stories end up happily, and that’s just reality.
Especially since this story is based in the 90s, where it is quite difficult to contact another person, let alone someone who lives in a whole other country. It’s really a whole different experience compared to nowadays, where we can contact our loved ones pretty much instantaneously.
Honestly, this is a much better ending than dramas nowadays where the couple end up together miraculously and happily because they’re main leads.

Was told to watch by a friend, mixed feelings
My friend for a while had been asking me to watch this Drama. I went into watching this having an understanding of how it was going to end and I still was utterly shocked by it. As well as being utterly in shock with the ending, this is not the normal Drama I would watch, and I STILL LIKED IT.The story was wonderful, I think that's what made it so sad. The Drama kept bringing back details from the past adding new depth to something you thought was just a simple plot tool. Think that's what made the ending so bittersweet. Poong Woon Ho VHS tape holds all of those sweet memories that you can remember watching as his and Na Bo Ra's romance slowly blossomed. As well as the very special VHS tape being held in a Drama that made continuous reappearances throughout the whole Drama. These small details are what I like to see in a Drama, they leave a lasting image on you after watching.
The acting was great not the best. The chemistry between Kim Yoo Jung and Byun Woo Suk was utterly beautiful. Their scenes had just the right amount of cuteness. They weren't too cute causing me to want to throw up but just the right amount to make you giggle to yourself. Even Kim Yoo Jung and Park Jung Woo scenes held this same cuteness. Though I did find some of the crying scenes a little weird to watch. The tears of the characters almost looked a little too forced, but I mainly only saw this when we were seeing Woon Ho and Bo Ra in their high school years. I do think it helped add a bit of youth to their tears but I still think they looked a bit odd. But the whole air of this Drama was great and I am completely willing to watch other Dramas with these actors.
The music didn't leave much of a lasting impression on me. When watching music can make or break a show/drama, but the music in this Drama didn't do either. After watching this drama I can't remember any of the music that was in it. Some Dramas I watched were greatly better because of the music. This Drama wasn't improved or made worse because of its music. I think its lack of music doesn't decrease how much I liked this drama, but I can't say that if it had a great soundtrack I would have thought it was the best Drama ever.
Due to this Drama being quite a sad one from my standpoint I wouldn't necessarily want to watch it again. Maybe after a bad break up with a nice pint of ice cream cuddling up in bed, but I not going to get home from school and put it on. From my standpoint, it was a wonderful 1st watch and I will always hold it dear to me but not so dear to suffer through that ending again.
Overall, this Drama I would 100% recommend anyone to watch this, but just watch with caution and have that box of tissues with you for the final line.

Refreshingly Heartbreaking
I know my headline doesn't make sense at all. But for me it does. The story was refreshingly good because I didn't expect the plot twist at all! I thought it was a typical boy-crush-bestfriend-fighting -a for-a-boy type of story. It was heartbreaking but one way or another one has to experience heartache in one lifetime.I have to warn the viewers that this movie is a tear-jerker and has its moments as far as cinematography is concerned as the movie's time plot headed to the 20th century. As someone who recently experienced a great loss, I broke down in the end. Although I was hopeful that just like in the movie, after 15 years, the aching and the heartbreak from a loss would get better over time. It doesn't go away. That gaping hole will forever be in the heart of the one who was left behind.
The story was good, and the movie left a certain feel-good emotion after. So I have to recommend this movie.

Deep, yet very hartwarming story
The drama is so well filmed. The whole story was perfectly portrayed by the actors, however, I was kind of triggered by those unending crying scenes (they just were there, no spoiling).If you are planning to watch this drama, it's probably not a secret that it´s overall a pretty sad story. Whether it´s the heart condition problems or the love between the main couple.
Anyway, I liked how they uniquely portrayed every relationship. I mean...it wasn't cringe (mostly parent-child relationships are portrayed like that)
I would highly recommend this show mostly to girls in their teen ages or in their early 20s (close to the characters' age)
P.S. Be ready to laugh, cry, smile, fangirl over the main cast and be ready for everything

Faut absolument regarder.
J'AI ADORÉ CE DRAMA. Omgg qu'est ce que ct vrm bien mais à la fois tellement triste. C quoi cette fin j'ai le cœur en miettes. 😭😭Pourquoi faire ça à notre héro ??
Ils étaient si mignons et n'ont même pas pu profiter de leur amour. Les pauvreeeeeees.
Leur romance est tellement belle mais on s'attend pas du tout cette fin tragique.
Sinon le cast est incroyable. La mise en scène est parfaite. On se croirait vrm à ma fin des années 90.
Ça fait du bien de regarder des kdramas d'aussi bonne qualité.

Heart-warming
This is my second time watching this movie and oh Man. My heart hurts!I forgot how the movie ended and it definitely woke me up from reality.
I decided to rewatch this because of Byeon Woo Seok. I recently just finished watching ‘Strong Girl Nam Soon’ and his acting in that drama was remarkable. I did not expect to see him as the villain. This is one of the reasons I decided to rewatch this because I miss his innocent character haha.
Anyways. I love this drama. I remember watching it for the first time saying why is it two hours. That's too long. But as I kept watching, I wished it was a drama.
It's so emotional! I love shows or movies that occurred in the 90s. It brings back my childhood and just shows life being simple regardless of being poor.
The friendships. High school life. Romance. Third wheeling. The plot and the ending.
It's definitely one of a kind.
This movie reminds me of ‘She’s Dating the Gangster it's a Filipino romance movie that is similar to the story of this drama.
Risking everything for the cause of others.
Anyways. I'm glad I rewatched it. I've been craving.. hahah. this drama. I just can't bear the watch 25-21. That one OMG. I caanot.
But. Worth every seconds.

The worst romantic movie I ever seen
If you enjoy a cast that cannot act and convey any emotions through their "so" called "acting" and a shallow "love" story then this movie is perfect for you.It's terrible and terrible and terrible and beyond terrible It's terrible and terrible and terrible and beyond terrible It's terrible and terrible and terrible and beyond terrible It's terrible and terrible and terrible and beyond terrible It's terrible and terrible and terrible and beyond terrible It's terrible and terrible and terrible and beyond terrible (need 300 words to post a review).
