18 Outra Vez

This drama demonstrates hidden/ unspoken struggles in different characters. Either in between husband and wife or parents and children. Well written script. Very well done!

Most of the time I avoid family melodrama but this one is different. It shows the true love of family members for each other and everyone can relate with the story. I don't know about foreign countries but in India everyone mostly live with their family (basically joint family). Although this story shows the reality about how much our parents suffer to give good life to their childrens. Also when children's understand there parents feelings they also suffer so much and never open up infront of their parents.

It gives the idea of real life lovable family there struggle and other things. Literally, it's very beautiful story no doubt; in terms of story and plot. But, the supernatural elements are little bit confusing as we don't understand what happened at that particular time. Specially, when the lead actor go back to his young age, we don't understand how this happen? And it feels like they take it for granted and never care about how this happen/possible. They don't even try to find out how this is possible that someone go back to his 18 yr old body? This makes little confusion over viewer's mind.

However, this show is must watch in my "Must watch list" as this drama never disappoint you in terms of good and beautiful story along with amazing acting of actors.

I am watching the last episode now. This TV series' each episode was funny and sad. It makes me so emotional but it was so good. I have watched Yoon Sang Hyun before, while he played Oska in Secret Garden TV series. When i saw him in this series, i was so excited and happy. He is a really good actor and also Lee Dohyun is awsome, i hope he will participate in most of dramas and movies. I hope he can gain lots of awards. He is really talented, his role is very difficult in this drama but he did really a good job. Also all cast was awsome, Haneul, Jeong Eui, Ryeun, Bomin, Inyeop... I hope we can see all of them more.

Beautifully directed and very elegantly presented by all the actors. Soul touching and refreshing. It took me total 3 days to complete 16 episodes of this drama. Each episode is of about 1 hour. After completing this, one thing which I can very concretely say that this 3 days were really most beautiful for me since the start of the pandemic. The direction, quality of acting, script, screenplay, storyline, dialogues, each and every thing is a dimension beyond. A real stress buster and morally uplifting drama worth your time for sure. I will highly Recommended this to each and every individual reading my review. Please go watch this, you will witness the most beautifully crafted piece of art on screen. Deep, soul touching, full of concrete life lessons and heart melting !!

Except for Zac Efron's stunning smiles, I couldn't place the original film version of this series. Still, starting an adaption series is nerve-racking. Fortunately, the creators of 18 Again ensured that it would live up to the original by adapting it into their own plot.

The Korean version of the show takes a more serious approach to the main plot, focusing on Hong Dae-Young's relationships with his wife and children. Therefore, don't be deceived by the ludicrous, humorous trappings of this drama; it has so much heart that it never runs out of emotions. Fatherly love, familial love, romantic love, and even platonic love were all given equal time in the spotlight, resulting in a genuinely satisfying viewing experience that I didn't want to end.

In addition, the cast is fantastic. It's top-billed by veteran actors Kim Ha-neul and Yoon Sang-Hyun, and the main storyline was as expected well-acted. What surprised me was how good Lee Do-Hyun is in this drama.

I was concerned from the start about his ability to handle a lead part in this series with well-known competent actors. And he did it! His passionate performance has really blown me away.

My heart-eyes for Lee Do Hyun are completely unintended and most likely permanent.

So, if you enjoy slice-of-life/school/relationship dramas, I think you should give this a shot!

(PS- I'm still perplexed as to how 30-year-old Hwang In-youp can portray a "high school student" so well at the age of 30. WHAT IS THE KEY TO HIS YOUNG FOREVERNESS?)
