One of the best school drama i have ever watch. Two Main lead are doing great and their bonding is too good. One of best couple...

I watched it more than 15+ and never got bore.

I don't think I had a dry eye for at least 1/2 the K-Drama. It is very touching - tragic in parts, and the male lead Seong-wu Ong did a great job I playing an 18 year old who fell in love for the first time while enduring all kinds of judgements from others because of his forced transfer to a new school due to a false accusation that he was a thief and did assault as well. Of course, the top king of the school gets jealous of him, since he is handsome, nice, girls like him, including his girlfriend, and sets him up with a fake theft to get the drama started. Didn't know how this was going to end, and was crying though the ending - it wasn't a disappointing ending at all, just something that will make you cry. I am beginning to like the ML - saw him in Seoul Vibe and now this Moment of Eighteen Drama and he did a great job in both.

This study of community centers on two characters who are not who they seem to be. It is a moving examination of the boy who has clear hold of the title "good" and the newcomer who is quickly able to be labeled "bad." The richness of the story evolves as the bully slowly but surely appears and finally at the end of the story lets go of bullying as a life style. The tale is told with a decisive gentleness that takes a while to warm up to but really is the genius of the telling. Like heaven's garden we end up starting with an apparently modern, distracted and destructive community that is slowly and surely delivered into something better. All of the players did an amazing job in their respective roles but I must especially commend Shin Seung-ho. For his moving commitment to the broken pride and suffering intrensic to his roll as he endures abuse at home while navigating the inhuman expectations of social ordering that has gone astray. There is more than one broken person in the story, and more than one character that is healing to watch. I ended up very impressed by this story.

Moment at Eighteen is a wonderful, sweet story of first love and the conflicts that arise between young students in an elite school full of the children of ambitious parents. The characters are all very well developed, and multiple story lines are skillfully woven into a single overarching plot that feels fully fleshed out and explored. The cast is full of young and talented actors, each of them unique and each one gave an impressive performance. The story has enough drama to keep the audience interested, but it also feels genuine and down to earth, without any crazy sudden dramatic turns. The soundtrack in particular stood out to me and was both beautiful and memorable.

Overall, the underlying story of a first love at the age of 18 was sweet and executed perfectly. The awkwardness, the tenderness, the ups and downs; all were done extremely well.

The only complaint I had was it was a little slow at times, and the show overall could have probably been wrapped up in 12 episodes instead of 16. The ending was also a bit too open ended for my taste.

That being said, for a school drama/slice of life it is a wonderful show that is well worth a watch.
