Reply 1997 (2012)

"venduto" come trilogia

legata alle serie Reply 1988 e Replay 1994 ... (quest'ultima non l'ho vista, ma nemmeno la cerco, vista l'esperienza pessima con questo filmaccio orribile), mi sono accanita a provare a guardarlo, oltretutto gronda giudizi entusiasti e ha un rate alto ma ...
Delusione cocente!
Storia e personaggi urlati e inconsistenti ... non fanno né ridere, né piangere ... fanno solo incavolare ... sono caricature e la trama non ha niente da dire, a meno che qualcuno si immedesimi nel trash degli anni 90.
Avendo precedentemente visto Reply 1988, che faccio fatica a quotare perché è un piccolo gioiello e il voto 10 non è sufficiente, qui il voto è ZERO ... ma posso solo mettere 1 per abbassare la media, assurdamente alta.
E' veramente una perdita di tempo, gli stessi attori che recitavano nel 1988 (marito e moglie) qui non hanno nulla da dire, sceneggiatura piatta da encefalogramma prossimo allo Shutdown.

One. of. the. BEST. I. HAVE. EVER. WATCHED.

Before watching this, I would consider a drama on how good it is based on how addicted I was, but even if I wasn't super addicted to Answer Me 1997(maybe part of it is that I didn't watch it while it was airing so I wasn't left hanging every week), everything in the drama was full of meaning and everything just fit together perfectly.

I applaud the writer and director for making such a work of art altogether, I must say.

This drama was different from others, in the aspect that it wasn't the typical cliff hanger every episode and there wasn't really a FIXED storyline, if you know what I mean. It was the story-telling of two first loves that succeeded and their growth together. From high school to adulthood, it was just lovely seeing all the characters grow.

It was full of sweet moments and what I like about this drama is that there isn't some annoying, cockblocking antagonist that was only put there to have a base conflict. The conflict in the drama was more personal, realistic, and relatable which made this drama just seem more "real" I guess. Even if I wasn't into kpop in that time exactly, I still felt the nostalgia and warm fuzzy feeling when they play a 90's or early 2000's song in the background. This drama always got me all emotional all the time haha. The writing was also amazing and even I learned a few lessons watching this drama :)

THE CAST AND ACTING WAS PERFECT. Everyone was so natural and even if Shiwon was a delusional fan girl, I still loved her character. Yoon jae was just sooo.. soo.. dreamy at times. You can see his emotions through his eyes and his intense gaze that's only for Shiwon. When he cries I just cry with him, because it seems so genuine and the pain is visible through his crying. Again, I loved the fact that there was no crazy ass villain in the drama.

The music they played seemed to fit so well with every scene and even if j didn't even know some(most) of the 90's Korean songs I still felt nostalgic. I'm currently looking for all the songs used in this drama because it's that good.

I would highly recommend this drama to anyone who is a sucker for sweet and 'fuzzy' love stories as well as people who are just looking for a drama that's not too heavy. This will take you down memory lane as the beepers and cell phones with antennas are re-introduced. I mean, who DOESN'T love the feeling of nostalgia? Well this drama will definitely give you that feeling.


I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS DRAMA!
