Love, Do It (2023)

def a must watch if u like lighthearted friendship dramas, not much to romance

I was eagerly waiting for this kind of drama to be released this year as I am a sucker for youth, high school, and friendship drama. In most cases I ended up being disappointed when they didn't give much time to the romance part, but not this time. In the beginning, I was expectant of the romance and love triangle thing but turns out it didn't play many roles. I was rooting for the FL to end up with Go You not only cuz I am a big Oh Sehun fan but also cuz in love triangles I am the type to side with the bright fun characters, cuz seeing such characters' sad, and gloomy sucks fr.
I was really happy to see that they focussed on the friendship of the two, and in the end, didn't ruin it cuz of the girl
one of the good things about this is the low watch time you can easily binge-watch it in a couple of hours, and also cuz if this kinda story is stretched out it makes it boring in most cases... it also increases its re-watch value for me NGL
one thing I didn't like is the FL, like I would love it if they showed more sides of her, I can't agree more with another user quoting her as a "porcelain doll", don't get me wrong I don't hate Damsel in distress kinda FLs but this wasn't it
Overall the acting was good for me, I am not a good critic of acting, I am good till I don't find it cringey
so hope yall have a good watching time

Quick and easy web drama to kill time.

It had a nice story, I liked the bond that all the characters had and even though it was short, I really liked that they were able to jam pack everything into one and made you feel some type of way honestly. It was happy, it was sad, it was dramatic and it was good laughs all in one. You have Sehun who doesn't disappoint in everything I've seen him in, the bond he had with Jo Joon Young was fantastic and everyone just clicked, I liked the transitions of the flashbacks as well. Overall, good show. Wouldn't rewatch it but it was a nice space fill.

Tudo que amamos

"Tudo que amamos, que dure para sempre e seja feliz."

Nossa, até o final fiquei na dúvida de que era o Go yoo ou o Joon hee, o go yoo se tornou tão mais fechado, tão introvertido, mesmo que ele tenha envelhecido seila, ficou muito diferente e tem até aquela cena do óculos que parece mesmo o Joon hee porque o yoo nunca tinha usado óculos, tudo muito confuso mas era a intenção do drama então...
Eu só assisti por dois motivos: pelo sehun e pela sinopse do drama (achei que seria uma vibe, cheer up, twenty five twenty one, reply sabe? Bem sofrimento mesmo mas ao mesmo tempo bom) e acho que foi rápido demais, não desenvolveu bem, não sei, inclusive a menina que fazia a so yeon mais nova passou a maior parte do drama só calada, mal lembro dela falando juro.
O foco maior foi a amizade dos dois, dois quatro tbm, mas principalmente a deles dois que começou pequenos e foram amadurecendo juntos, fiquei com meu coração apertado pelo Joon hee, o coitado sofreu muito mas no final parece que tava bem. O romance pra mim nem foi lá aquelas coisas. Foi um drama legal de acompanhar!

Stayed for Sehun..

In theory, the story and plotline are great. They had the basics to a good story, you know? It seemed like it was something that's really good when I first read the synopsis before I began watching the show, but it didn't really live up to my expectations. I expected so much more. It went in the wrong direction, in my opinion. Still watchable and likeable in a sense, but definitely had more potential. Mostly watchable, for me, since Sehun is here.

The acting is okay/good. The casting for the adults is.. questionable. Specifcally for Go Yoo and Go Joon-hee.

Some parts seemed unnecessary, too. At the end, I just continued watching to support Sehun.

Oh Sehun!

Assisti esse mini drama unicamente pelo Sehun! Simplesmente tudo pra mim ele de jogador de basquete! Amei o bromance entre o Go Yoo e o Go Joon Hee. Fiquei chateada por eles terem brigado por conta da So Yeon, o cara da o rim pro outro e ainda recebe um soco na cara porque não defendeu uma ladra kkk Torci muito pro Go Yoo ficar com a garota haha. Nos cortes do futuro só mostrava Dr. Go, imaginei de cara que fosse o Yoo mas as vezes duvidava e ficava apreensiva se caso eu tivesse me enganado e ele fosse o Joon Hee, pela aparência e evidências parecia o Yoo, mas o jeito mais tímido e o fato de ter virado doutor parecia o Joon, até no final deixou tudo claro haha. Não gostei do Hee ter sumido e só conseguiram se encontrar tantos anos depois. Mas valeu a pena assistir pra ver o Sehun!

"나는 사랑하는 게 너무 어렵더라."

This nostalgic web-drama follows the lives of two best friends growing up together and going through the first love, first heartbreak, hurtful arguments, kidney transplanting and "cellular memory" that makes one of them adopt the traits of another.

🔸Although not the most coherent and too relying on the unnecessary "big reveal" in the end, the story is quite lovely to watch. My favorite scene is drinking home-brewed makkolli at school in the middle of the night and escaping security guards together. The biggest mistake is making the cellular memory responsible for the arguments between Joon Hwi and Yoo interrupting his personal development, not to mention that cellular memory is just a myth and you could use it more creatively.

Overall, it's still a good drama about navigating friendship, anger, sorrow, love and grief, and the performance from Se Hoon is worth a watch.

Too average and bland

It started in a cool way; from having such a light and refreshing concept that features the way of living of three to four teenagers. However, it sticks in that way -no character development, intense and impactful plots, and even the ending is just a mere average one.

Sehun is the reason why I added this show to my list. Although, I didn’t wholeheartedly feel disappointed since Go You is such a fun character. Yet, I feel pity that they wasted such a good foundation of his role. The rest of the cast feels too reserved.

The girl acting is too unpleasant; she’s just wearing a poker face the whole period of the drama. Her eyes can’t literally deliver the right emotion needed for the specific scenes. Nevertheless, I still appreciate everyone’s acting as it is not too bad compare to some dramas I watched. But again, I rarely feel disappointed watching a Korean show with a poor delivery of acting from its cast. My favorite thing from this show is the OST. It is soothing and lovely to the ears, and somehow reminds me of Meteor Garden.

This one is a hidden gem. Great concept story.

‘All That We Loved’ is a hidden gem for me. It is complicated without appearing to be so. ‘All That We Loved’ has a unique storyline for the youthful School Life Romance drama. There are two teen best friends who are the exact opposites. One is gregarious, comedic and athletic. The other is seriously studious, shy and withdrawn, and sickly. They are brought up like brothers. When one needs a kidney transplant, the other does not hesitate to share his kidney with the other. During this experience, both begin to share the same emotions, even falling for the same girl. The two best friends have an interesting backstory and the drama covers the years 1996 as kids, 2006 as teens, and 2023 as an adult. This may confuse some at first, because of the flashbacks, but everything gels together by episode 3. I really loved this story and the story telling was stellar.

‘All That We Loved’ reminds me of the Korean School Romance Drama ‘Dear M’ in its relevance to youths, but is a drama for all ages, when considering its message. ‘All That We Loved’ has a high recommendation from me and it is ready to binge. With only eight episodes, this is a great choice to view.


Actors Corners

The teen actors are the following:

Jo Jun Young is a new kid on the acting block and is just starting out in acting. He was in Dear M. I thought that he was a star in that drama, and I actually followed him to this new Kdrama. Tall with good looks, Jo Jun Young is nailing the soft timid friend Go Joon-Hee, who is about to come out of his shell.

Another fresh new comer is Jang Yeo Bin from Our Blooming Youth. She plays the love interest Han So-Yeon and she plays a most interesting character, because this character can’t be categorized.

K-pop EXO band member Sehun (The Pirates: The Last Royal Treasure) has been taking on more Korean dramas of late. He plays the gregarious funny guy Go Yoo and has natural appeal as an actor. Sehun is finding KDrama life outside of EXO.
