This is a beautifully writen, superbly acted, wonderful journey almost it feels like an artwork. I really can't recall a Hollywood alternative similar to this.

The unique love story is so close to heart but the highlight is the out of the world acting by Shin Hye-Sun. What an actress. After watching this I saw "My beautiful life" drama which is truly a masterpiece among dramas of any language, another superb performance by Shin.

Don't get deceived by the cheesy title. They should have given this a better name. This is a romantic comedy masterpiece. Loved it.

Before I started watching Korean and Chinese dramas about a year ago, I had no idea that they were such brilliant story tellers and hopeless romantics! The storylines are obviously unlikely but the human emotion and relationships are depicted expertly and with such heart-warming tenderness. Still 17 is one of the best, if not the best series I have watched. The acting is superb and the characters are just so wonderful (loved Chan especially) that you wish you could move right in with them. There were no overacting silly sidekicks but instead natural laugh out loud funny moments and heart-breaking sadness are woven beautifully throughout the story. Like another reviewer, I have withdrawal from the characters and found it hard not to fancy Mr Gong :-) I especially loved that they ended it well, including flashbacks to some of the memorable moments in the story. Stomach dropping, heart bursting romance and friendship and moments you will remember for a long time. Highly recommend.

The first Korean Drama seen from start to the finish (after watching bits and pieces of Descendants of the Sun). Very interesting script. Kudos to the entire team. Every scene was so crisp, did not find any scene boring in all the 32 episodes. Very few scenes were a little I loved the fact that unlike most serials which would end with episode 30, this serial will always stand out for producing episode 31 and 32.

This show deserves a higher average rating on imdb if you ask me...

The plot isn't your ordinary kdrama plot (though it does have some typical drama elements, it IS a romantic drama after all, but continuing): A young, 30 year old woman who's been in a coma after a severe accident wakes up after 13 years - and has to overcome the fact that she isn't the 17 year old girl she was when she was last conscious. Struggling to adapt to her new self, she flees her rehab center and finds herself back at her old home to see her aunt and uncle who've been taking care of her ever since her parents died in her teens just to find out that her aunt and uncle had sold the house and nowhere to be found. And at her old house is where she meets Gong Woo Jin who just moved back into the house with his nephew after traveling for a while. And this is basically where the drama starts.

The story is generally quite slow as in most secrets are only revealed in the very last few episodes. But I didn't find it boring at all because it gave the opportunity for the characters to shine and for us viewers to watch them grow and evolve. To be honest, I think their growth is what this show is actually about which is why the secrets were revealed so late. And I loved it.

I was quite surprised there was almost no annoying, evil or overly dramatic character (at least none that stayed for a while/appeared often) which is quite unusual for dramas and it was SO REFRESHING! Also, don't get me started on the recurring main or supporting characters of this show because I don't even know how to express how much I loved them! There was the iconic one (Jennifer), the adorable ones (Yoo Chan & Woo Seori), the funny ones (Haebeom, Deoksoo, Jin Hyun) the amazing, supportive one (Heesoo) and the one with a heart of gold (Gong Woojin). And all of them together was the perfect mix to make you laugh really hard, cry a river or feel at home.

The OST was really good too and I don't think I've ever downloaded as many instrumental songs as I did from this OST.

The only reason why I give a minus is because while I loved everything I just told you, I didn't feel the need to binge-watch this show as much as I did with others even though I can't explain why.

Although the plot is unbelievable at most times I enjoyed this so much. Shin hye sun is as always amazing in it. And I loved seeing Sieun so much! The chemistry was cure too and I liked Chan's storyline the most. This is a wholesome drama with not much deep plotline and that's good enough.
