Very realistic and heartwarming.

In the beginning, i thought it would be a fluffy romance with a typical happily ever after, but I was so wrong.

I really liked Bo Ra's character, the way she followed her best friend's crush and how much she cared for her to the point of letting go Woon Ho, whom she liked.

On the other hand, I think Woon Ho was the best of all. I loved his expressions, the sadness and longing in his eyes. Especially, the breakdown scene under the rain and his side story of how he met Bo Ra.

The ending was 'okay'.
Because not every relationship can have a happily ever after, it is the reality, but again thinking about Woon Ho, it was very sad, even though the friends found their happiness except the main couple..

This movie is nice and sweet! Although the ending made me cry buckets of tears, it was worth every tear! A must watch for everyone who loves the light romance genre!

I liked how the storyline was clean, simple and straight to the point! Not much conflict, nor unnecessary drama just the way a summer high school movie vibes should feel.

The plot was great from start to middle but towards the end, it felt lacking and a bit rushed. Some of the details weren't given to us, i'm guessing the writer intended that for us to conclude on our own?

The casting was great too! The story out worked well even just by revolving the story around the four characters.
Kim Yoo Jung was perfect for the role, and looking at the two boys, i'm just squealing!

Overall, 20th Century Girl was able to deliver with the setting and made us feel exactly what a high school crush and first love feels like (wanting to know more about the person, stalking, sneaking looks, etc.). 2 hours for a good movie like this is so short I was hoping we get to see them live and enjoy their high school days more! T_T

OH HOW BEAUTIFULLY SAD!!

THIS MOVIE WAS BEYOND AMAZING GUYS!!! There were many lessons from this movie, times when I laughed so loud my sister asked if I'm crazy. Swoon-worthy moments that had me screaming and slapping my thigh which made my sister also second guess if I'm actually sane (I promise I am lol), and moments where I absolutely forgot that this is a movie. I loved the acting!!!! The OST, the actors, the different themes displayed, and I could go on. I had hoped for a happy ending for both characters, but we can't always get what we want. However, I LOVEDDDD THE ENDING NONETHELESS. I highly recommend watching this movie. Forget about the happy ending for a while, and just watch how beautiful they portrayed this movie!! I'll end with this.

"Wait just a bit longer. I'll go see you. I want to see you, Bo-ra of the 21st century."


xo,

My fellows I rarely write a review EVER, but this movie deserves one....

If I am saying that I have not cried that much in 5-7 years then I really mean it.
I am not talking bout light flakey tears, I am talking bout sobbing, non stop rivers of tears.
So if you are down for a emotional ride and a good cry. Here you go.

Got this movie recommended and thought it would be fun to watch as a time killer. Oh boy was I wrong.

The main and side characters are all so pure, innocent, genuine and kind-hearted.
I love it the most, when people are considerate, understanding and patient. This movie was the definition of it.
The story is so natural and refreshing, the actors and actresses. MY GOD. THEIR ACTING.... M-A-S-T-E-R-P-I-E-C-E!

It is a true delight and I am very grateful for the director and everyone involved in this movie, because it might be my favorite movie in maybe 4 years? Everything is a built up of a perfect end result.

I finished it 10 minutes ago and my feelings are still very raw and I aam still slightly overwhelmed.
It literally awakened so many feelings I have not felt in a long time.

I just read that many people rated it relatively lowly, because of the ending.
But guys honestly the ending is maybe 10 minutes of the whole movie.
There are 1h and 50min left to enjoy fully, which are so worth it.

Idk if you can even call it a review, but this is what I felt and I think I should share it with you guys.
If you are down for an emotional awakening, this movie is IT! Especially when you have been very numb for a long time.

If you have plans later that day and want to meet friends after the movie I totally not recommend. Your eyes will be very red and you will feel MANY emotions.

Its 2am and im bawling my eyes out. I dont think im physically and mentally able to sleep after this

I went couldn't sleep, so i decided to watch a movie instead. This movie had been on my "to watch" list for a while, so i decided to watch this, thinking it would be a cute highschool romcom. Now it's 2 am and I'm bawling my eyes out. When I tell you it felt like my stomach sank.

At first I was scared the main couple would be between Bo Ra and Hyun Jin. I really hoped that Bo Ra would go for Woon Ho. So I was so happy when I found out I was right. Their chemistry is just everything.

Although the miscommunication between Bo Ra and Yeon Doo was so darn frustrating, I think it really improved the story. Im just never a fan of miscommunication, which sounds pretty obvious, but i just get so frustrated when things go wrong because of it.

I also want to say that I truly love Bo Ra's character. I love how she is not the girly girly type and i really love how well athletic she is. I just basically love everything about her.

Now for the last point, as i said before, it's 2am as im writing this and as i just finished watching. So everyone is asleep. For someone who normally watches cute scene with giggling and feetkicking, overreacting is something i always do. So for me to not be able to react to the moment I found out Woon Ho died, let's say i also died with him. My cheeks were like waterfalls, my stomach was in a rollercoaster, but i wasn't able to make any sound.

I am not okay.

É importante saber que se vai chorar muito

Um bom filme que me fez chorar mas muito marcante! as história é os personagens prendem eu ao filme é também me faz refletir. Não sei muito oque falar então eu acho que é só isso por enquanto, em minha opinião vale muito a pena assistir.
Tem muitos doramas triste mas esse realmente me fez chorar é ficar sentimental por mais de uma semana. É um melodrama muito bom.
To kiss in cars and downtown bars
Was all we needed
You drew stars around my scars
But now I'm bleedin'
'Cause I knew you
Steppin' on the last train
Marked me like a bloodstain, I
I knew you
Tried to change the ending
Peter losing Wendy, I
I knew you
Leavin' like a father
Running like water, I
And when you are young, they assume you know nothing
But I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss
I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs
The smell of smoke would hang around this long
'Cause I knew everything when I was young
I knew I'd curse you for the longest time
Chasin' shadows in the grocery line
I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired
And you'd be standin' in my front porch light
And I knew you'd come back to me
You'd come back to me
And you'd come back to me
And you'd come back
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
Under someone's bed
You put me on and said I was your favorite
