Twinkling Watermelon

Don't let the title of the drama or the cast of second leads discourage you from watching it!

It took me a while to decide to press play and it was truly a delightful experience!

Without spoiling anything ..the show reignited my love for music...reminded me that my parents were once teenagers with hopes , dreams and inner struggles.. Just like twenty five twenty one drama.. Sparkling Watermellon will make you recall your first love which could either be a heartwarming or a heartbreaking experience. Nonetheless, you'll feel nostalgic for the past and its simple joys!

The show is still ongoing as I write this review, I'm on episode 9 and I still don't get its title?!

Really good drama that lets its four leads sparkle. Twinkling Watermelon features themes of family and identity at various times in the characters' lives, and while it looks like a fun ride on its nostalgic surface, this series has bigger emotional payoffs simmering just under the surface. Boy, do the final two episodes serve up the full force of the writer's prowess. In the end, each character develops the tools to help them communicate better whether through signing, music, or simply summoning the courage to ask the questions they never could. The male leads are excellent especially in the finale episodes but it's Choi Hyun-Wook, who has shone in everything he's done to date, demonstrating again why he'll be the next big thing in Korean tv.

I literally have never cried this much while watching a kdrama. I was already having so many kdramas on my most favourite list but this has crossed all the boundaries. IT LITERALLY BLEW MY MIND!!! I don't even have words to express how much this drama meant to me. Even though it made me cry in almost every episode I also had a good laugh. It was such a heartwarming drama and it has definitely got the spot in my top dramas list. And yeah, the cast was perfect like I can't even imagine anybody else playing their roles🤧.

If not the best of all time, this drama has to be the best drama of 2023!!!

I hope it wins all the awards it deserves!!

9.8/10Don't judge the title,first lead who accidentally gets back in the past and he meets his dad but his dad is the same age as himWith no identity there he lies to him and stays with his dad. Meanwhile his dad makes a band to impress his first loveBut then main lead realises the first love his dad talking about isn't his mom and is some other he knows in present So now he has to make his dad and mom meet But also his dad and mom are deaf but in past he sees his dad isn't deaf he realises an accident happens so he must also try to stop it. Also many more things happen due to his intervention.

It will for sure be one of my top k dramas. It had my heart moved more than once. But it still kept the warm light hearted mood. It was a pleasent show to tune into after a stressful day. I really liked the complicated dynamic of hearing and hearing impaired. Most importantly how they actually used sign language. The main actors fit their role and acted it out sparkling. The story was well written and I can't really come up with something bad about it. Some of the main plot is something we seen plenty of times before, but made in a way I didnt mind that at all. Just if this genre is your cup of tea. This show is a must watch.
