Annyeong? Naya!

Whimsical and sweet, the show has a great underlying message of being kind to yourself - particularly if life has not ended up going the way you thought it might. Some well-known character actors bring warmth and not a little slapstick style humour to the situation. Added bonus is the songs that were super popular in the last half of the 90s.

Perhaps not one of the classics, but it made me laugh and especially towards the ed had me in tears - though the ending is happy (watch out for a few minutes extra right at the end).

The lead actors all had it nailed and a special mention of the lovely grandma. Who has not thought what they would say to their 17 year old self but this gives that theme a delightful twist.

Plot races along with some good twists and you want to know what happens next. Enjoyed this a lot.

Many good values in this show. All actors played high quality performance.

The episodes were dragging on a bit at first but the characters kept becoming more like able. I like the character development of the chef and his father. I also loved Re Lee's acting throughout the show. Young ban hani's character development was subtle and slow but well handled. The issues of guilt and grief were explored very well imo. Loved Anthony's character development; a lot of depth for a side character. I liked the slow relationship growth between the chef and Ban hani. And the humor was endearing and top-notch.

This is my third K-Drama(second which I watched completely). I don't like the plastic look of actresses so I picked this as the premise was original where a washed out 37 year old meets her past 17-year old self. The lead actress seemed less plastic and more real.

The story simply doesn't have much elements for that many episodes and I was disappointed that the time travel element was not explored further at all.

The lead actor is extremely good looking and lights up the screen every time he comes on. There is some extremely good acting by the 17-year old girl Re Lee, she got the balance of a confident yet narcissistic girl right on spot. I also liked Kim yun-mi who beautifully portrays her mixed feelings in every situation, her general soft character, this was a very likeable character. The biggest disappointment was the main actress who has this slow way of speaking and then pausing as if she is going to say something profound and speak something trite.

The show is quite motivating if you are feeling down so will recommend but "Secret Garden" still remains my favourite. Wish they had cast "Ha Ji-Won" for the main role, she would have taken it to a different level.
