Fight For My Way (2017)

Very refreshing

I found this drama really refreshing. There are no cliche chaebols fighting for power over a company (which is the most boring plot ever!), no evil future mothers-in-law, no supernatural powers. Just pure joy of watching (more or less) ordinary, down-to-earth people "fighting for their way". The acting is good, the plot is interesting but not too complicated to follow from episode 1, the dialogues keep your attention, there are only a few prolonged scenes of someone crying ;-) I lamost didn't use the fast forward button, which I usually do while watching dramas. I highly recommend this drama to viewers who are bored with chaebol stories, robot love stories, supernatural powers stories, and other totally unrealistic plot devices.

no he llorado tanto en mi vida jajaja

De esos dramas que empiezas porque conoces a casi todo el elenco y de verdad no te esperas mucho pero luego te encuentras con personajes en sus 20 que están atravesando por lo mismo que tú y que te enamoran todos en diferentes medidas.

Por un lado tenemos una pareja aun no formada y otra formada que está al borde de una ruptura, y la química y el enganche de cada historia están mano a mano. Aunque mi favorita fue la "main couple" simplemente porque soy muy fan del actor, lo cierto es que cada historia por separado y la historia de las parejas son buenísimas y te tienen en vilo. El desarrollo de la historia en sí es bastante gratificante si tomamos en cuenta lo lentas que suelen ser las novelas coreanas. No hay nadie que sobre en elenco ni ninguna escena que eliminar. Es precioso ver cómo van creciendo los personajes y van luchando por abrirse camino (jajaja).

Lo único que cambiaría de la historia quizá es el tema de la madre e hija que nunca se han visto. Me parece que te van dejando pistas a lo largo de toda la serie y en los últimos capítulos lo meten de sopetón para poder cerrar esa trama. Si se hubiese desarrollado desde la mitad de la historia o un poquito antes creo que hubiera encajado mucho mejor y no hubiese sido de esa trama que te deja con una mano delante y otra detrás porque no la entiendes.

A good enough drama with twists that even happen till the last episode. The love story was strong, with the friendship overpowering the romance though, which isn't necessary a bad thing. The friendship dynamics actually were pretty good, as well as the chemistry between the actors and the couples. The side story was interesting as well. The martial arts theme was entertaining, moreover. The action scenes were presented really well and looked original and real life and not badly made, so that gave the drama a boost. The past mysteries, in addition, were interesting, but not that thrilling, as they were kind of odd and even if they weren't added, the story would have been the same. Finally, the performances were good as well.

Park Seo-Joon is AMAZING!!!

Il mio voto lo ammetto è molto condizionato dal fatto che Park Seo Joon è il protagonista. Per me è un attore completo, bravissimo sia nelle parti divertenti che in quelle drammatiche e naturalmente è bello bello bello. Lo adoro e solo la sua presenza alza il voto di un punto.
“Fight for my way” è un drama Friends to Lovers. Ma dire che è solo questo è riduttivo. Infatti, ci racconta la storia di quattro amici che arrancano nella vita ma non smettono di cercare di realizzare i propri sogni.
Un drama divertente ma che tratta anche tematiche più complesse senza mai scendere nel drammatico.
Vi consiglio la visione perché è una commedia che vi farà passare delle ore spensierate e perché c’è Parkino che è fantastico.

I honestly loved this drama to pieces. I almost didn't want to watch it, but decided to just give it a go in between other, more emotionally demanding dramas. I think that the main advantage of this drama are the dialogues and the dynamic between the main characters. It's just pure joy to watch. The other great advantage of this show is a clever usage of music. It had me laugh out loud many times. That being said, I was not as engrossed in the lives of the office couple as I was in the story of the two friends. I really liked the fact that I was able to relate to many of the issues in this drama. The characters are just regular people who have dreams or are just trying to survive. It's also an interesting analysis of the Korean society in which we see that having a certain position makes you immediately more attractive and seemingly raises your value as a person. I went through similar issues myself. Things like friendship, confusion, awakening feelings, moral dilemmas, struggles of finding employment and climbing the corporate ladder.. are a part of life. I loved how real the problems in the story were at the beginning of the drama. It gets a little more fairy-tale like towards the end and we also have an unexpected turn during the last couple of episodes, but nonetheless the show is just really enjoyable to watch. I actually watched it twice already even though I don't re-watch dramas too often. In many ways it reminded me of Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo and the Sassy Go Go, but it seemed to be a more adult version of those shows. If you liked WFKBJ, I think you will enjoy this drama as well.

Do not hesitate to watch

I was pushing away this drama for years thinking it is nothing I would like. It sounded so boring to watch ordinary people who struggle in life and moved from friends to lovers….blah..
I am so glad I gave it a try, finally, and currently is in my top 10 SK dramas!
It is still a story about an ordinary people, but it conveys so many messages and fill your chest with inspiration and courage!
Yes, they all struggle, but for a first time it didn’t seemed suffocating to watch how poor and unsuccessful they are (at the beginning). They all were constantly growing and developing through the entire series.
What else? Awesome comedy, Nice story, Villain who is believable, Friendship, some drama and so much more!

A heartwarming, down to earth masterpiece

I recently rewatched this drama for the second time and it was still as great as it was the first time. The drama is extremely human and takes you on an adventure with 4 childhood friends as they navigate through their late 20's to find their dreams and love along the way. I can confidently say that there is not one thing I can knit pick on this drama and I give it all my stars.

To sum up my thoughts on this drama: "THIS SH*T'S HILARIOUS" and "I feel that, to my core" are some words that come to mind and I would recommend this to anyone whose looking for a relatable funny drama, I can guarantee this drama will fill the shoes perfectly.

Sidenote: The amount of memes that came out of this drama alone is off the charts and that just tells you how great it is.

Two words: WATCH IT

This is one of the most unique and heart-warming shows in my opinion, and I've rewatched it multiple times by now.
We see 2 beautiful couples who grew up as childhood best friends, they know and understand each other better than anyone ever could. What makes this series so special is how it portrays real-life problems that many people face, chasing your dreams and its many many barriers.
However, it is precisely when these barriers arise that these best friends turned couple are able to support each other through difficult and challenging times, and I find that incredibly endearing and beautiful.
Acting was top-notch and the story itself contains deep messages, the pace was perfect for me neither rushing nor dragging at all.

Fiz uma ótima escolha quando decidi assistir esse drama, pois estranhamente eu ficava enrolando para ver e agora me arrependo de não ter feito isso antes. Esse show me conquistou desde o primeiro episódio e conseguiu manter minha atenção e empolgação até o ultimo minuto do episódio final.

O enredo realista é um diferencial neste drama foi muito bom e bem executado, gostei muito dos diálogos também e de como trataram a busca pelo sonho de forma real como realmente é, como conquistar um lugar ao sol é difícil para alguns. Como somos na maioria das vezes rotulados antes sequer te termos uma chance , e como foi interessante ver eles lutarem contra isso e provarem para si mesmos e ao mundo que eles mereciam sim uma chance , eu me identifiquei muito com isso.

Os protagonistas são ótimos e essa é a primeira vez que eu realmente me interessei pelo casal secundário , as histórias deles eram interessante e me peguei torcendo por eles todo momento.

A protagonista principal é ótima, divertida, inteligente determinada, destemida não é aquela mocinha indefesa fofa que vemos muito por ai pelo contrário nesse drama ela protege, ela briga e se for necessário até morde para defender quem ama , achei incrível a personalidade dela. Outro ponto a ser enaltecido é o romance dela com o protagonista masculino, gente eu amei a química entre os dois era ótima, me divertir demais com esses dois, foi muito bom de ver o progresso do sentimento deles um pelo outro.

O protagonista masculino também não ficou para trás adorei a atuação, seu personagem era divertido , determinado e muito amoroso do jeito dele. temos também nesse drama aqueles clichês e algumas pontas soltas porém não me incomodaram muito.

Em fim fim recomendo muito que você assista esse drama, é leve , cheio de humor porem usaram tudo de forma equilibrada e ainda sim conseguem abordar um assunto sério de uma forma bem realista e simples.

Surprisingly good

Story: The plot is straightforward that’s why I loved this drama. Shows the struggle of an ordinary human being with his passion. Very realistic, if you ask me. Definitely falling under RomCom & slice of life genre. I cried almost every episode here. Dramas about family make my heart hurt. Although the first few episodes were uneventful, it got better after. I skipped some parts about the supporting couple and their office romance but I like how they interpreted it in a mature way. There are many quotable lines here as well.

Acting: Major applause to PSJ acting, I love him here. He can be childish, cool, gentle, dramatic and manly all the same time. I can’t help but drool over his body 😍 Kim Ji won did good as well, with the mix of cuteness and fierceness. Like a cat. I just wish they’d justify her being afraid of Dong man in a fight with her feisty attitude. Like have scenes why loss or death would be scary for her. Other actors all did great except for the landlady. I also think that her son’s story was a bit unnecessary.

Music: okay, I guess, but not memorable for me.

Rewatch value: will probably skip the scenes that made me cry 😅

Overall: I think it was surprisingly good. I usually read bad reviews before starting a drama so that I won’t expect too much but fortunately, their negative comments wasn’t too much for me. I enjoyed this drama very much.

I loved it! It made me smile and emotional (no tears). I just love Park Seo Joon, the first time I saw his 6-pack... I tell you these South Korean actors are gifts from Heaven. I loved the Martial Arts and loved Park Seo Joon's kicks... it was told he took Martial Art training and he did very well. AND definitely "YES" Park Seo Joon, you are handsome, I mean very handsome, so accept it! Kim Ji Won, I loved this character as well. The chemistry between PSJ and KJW was absolutely there. Did I mention that PSJ is another great kisser? Ahn Jae Hong and Song Ha Yoon did very well. Although, I have to say this again... STOP writers making this competition in life for couples with other females! But other than that I believe the coach should have been the Main actor, not a supporting actor. He was great. Thank you to all of the Fight for My Way team... everything about this was great.
