Youth of May (2021)

...

«Youth of May» est un drama qui commence avec une romance toute mignonne, avec pour fond, une histoire de protestations et démocratie. Le couple nous fait sourire et rire, et on ne peut qu’espérer le meilleur pour eux. Quand tout à coup, ce qui n’était que des manifestations et autres, devient bien plus. On voit alors la réalité rattraper les personnages lorsqu’ils doivent faire face à l’horreur de la situation. Ce drama qui commence de façon toute mignonne, devient comme une montagne russe. Descendant, tournant, remontant. Le tout, sans qu’on puisse prédire ce qui allait réellement arriver aux personnages. Avec une belle alchimie, une histoire intense, de merveilleux acteurs, je conseille de voir ce drama, ne serait-ce qu’une fois… Mais attention aux âmes sensibles, parce que cet apogée dont je parlais ? Est très loin d’être facile à voir ! Et pour ceux qui s’y risquent malgré tout, vous allez découvrir un très bon drama, mais préparez les mouchoirs…

Youth of May is definitely one of the biggest gems of 2021. It's a sweet old-school romance in the backdrop of harsh Gwangju Uprising. If you're aware of the political and social backdrop, you will probably enjoy it even more. But even without it, Youth of May is a soothing love story. It reminds you what it's like to be innocently in love. It's old-fashioned and sincere and gives you a satisfying sense of nostalgia, even if you weren't alive during that time.

Lee Do Hyun has proved his versatility as an actor this year. While 18 Again is the crowd-pleaser (and for good reason), I don't know why but none of his characters can steal your heart like Hee Tae. It might be bold of me to say this but Lee Do Hyun outshined everyone on this show.

But that doesn't take away from the fact that this was one of the best cast ensembles we have had in a while. An out and out pool of talent. I have laughed and cried and ached and sympathized with all of their stories and I am going to carry them in my heart for a long time (I guess that's what happens with heavy dramas).

The couple's chemistry was amazing. The sfl nailed it. I really liked her character. The sml also held his own and had some awesome moments, The brothers were AWESOME! The kids stole the show. We had an evil father and an amazing father, both of the actors nailed it. The mums were great too. The friends. The soldiers. The friend-soldiers. It was the perfect cast.

I would say, in conclusion, that even if you're wary of the possible sad ending, go for it because this drama is worth it.
