Live Up to Your Name

After my first k-drama experience with "Crashing Landing on You", I found this underrated TV series on Netflix. I was first attracted by the time travel element and was not particularly impressed by the male actor, Kim Nam Gil, who ended up being my FAVOURITE actor and singer. He is the type of guy you have to grow into. He may not be your traditional good-looking guy on first look but his charming face and unpretentious character just suck you in bit by bit.

The chemistry between the two Kim(s) is excellent and the storyline about how their destinies are intertwined is very sweet. A destined couple helps each other heal and become a better version of him/her. Kim Ah Joong's acting skill is undeniably exquisite and she's very pretty too. They just look great together.

The medical scene is well executed and the songs "Always" and "Not Gonna Wait" are my favourites too.

All in all, this is an amazing romantic story about time travel that is very comforting and therapeutic, especially at this crazy lock-down period.

Don't miss this hidden gem.

I don't even remember how many times I've watched it.

Just bring me laughter and tears every time I watch it.

Give it a try; I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Amazing Drama <3 Trust me you'll not regret watching it! Do yourself a favour and start watching it. Watched 100s of dramas so far and I can say this is one of the best drama! Better than King the eternal monarch and many other dramas! So underrated! Don't miss this amazing gem <3

Totally a outstanding drama. Not just a love story, this drama will teach you your duty for your country, people. I love the story of this drama,and From every angle this drama was too perfect. But their happy ending could have been at least 10-15 minute.

I'm not a particular fan of South Korean movies, but when I saw this title in my Netflix list I said: "Why not, let's give it a try".

And it really touched something in me. It mixes drama with comedy in an insane manner and you really never know what to expect from one episode to another. To tell you the truth, I wasn't sure how it's going to end until I actually saw the last 3-4 minutes of the last episode.

The actress "Kim Ah Joong" is one of the most expressive and sensitive performers I've ever seen and she could easily play in any Hollywood blockbuster drama.

And I haven't seen any of those sudden plot twists that are present in many US / UK shows and which are supposed to make events more dramatic, but in truth, they decrease the show's quality. Nope, not going to see that here.

All-in-all, I really recommend this show. It's not long, but it's actually really good and it deserves every star I gave it.

First, I am very picky about my TV shows. I usually hate Romance/ Drama TV shows.

This Korean drama is lucky enough more than only a romance and I actually liked it. The beginning is very intriguing, mysterious enough to keep you interested. I learned a lot about Korean history and culture (In how far this is correctly presented, I have no idea as I am not Korean) There are enough funny moments to keep you amused.

The protagonist is a really good actor and he plays kind of an idiot, like in a funny way. The second protagonist, Dr. Choi is a pretty and lovely actress. Her reactions towards Heo Im are epic, very well executed.

The TV show progressed very well, enough moments you thought "I hope this will go well" to keep the tension in it.

I only disliked the second to last episode, the romance/ drama went on for far too long, I almost wanted to skip to the end of the episode...

The TV show had a satisfying ending for most people in my opinion. Also a kind of a tease/ cliffhanger at the end. I hope they will make a second season somehow and can keep the story intriguing.
