Ok well , It hasn't been a while since I finished watching this drama !
(My Love Eun Dong) is the story of that sweet , pure , everlasting love of childhood which has been lost in the cruel hands of TIME ! But after 10 years , amazingly , finds a way to bloom again !
STORY : (7/10)
The story is ... sweet but NOT A BRAND NEW IDEA ! We've seen tons of First-love romances both in Korean's and non-Korean's cinema industry !
Despite this fact , we can find a different and fresh atmosphere in their childhood and teenage love story. Their relationship is somehow-unique from the start and I loved this fact ! It begins better than the way it continues (I think it's the most important fact of this drama) !
When the characters grow up they have almost no relation to their past , neither in their personality features nor their appearances ! I know people change a lot as they grow but it's very important for the stories that travel through time , to let the audiences feel the similarity in different aspects so they can say the grown-up characters are the same person ! The story losts it's suspension after 7 episodes which could be replaced with some more emotional roller-coasters ! The story somehow gets boring cause it tries so HARD to become realistic by being filled with routine life moments !
ACTING : (7.5/10)
Joo Jin Mo is PERFECT as he always is ! I do appreciate his acting so much ! He always gets drown in his role , makes you feel you're watching his real life not an artificial melodrama ! He transfers any kind of emotion from his soul ! His acting makes you laugh and cry with him ! His character in this drama is so active and filled with emotions and he did a great job !
Kim Sa Rang is good ... but I'm afraid her acting is not really , suitable as Joo Jin Moo's lady !!!
It's clear how much she tries to make her acting more and more moving but unlike Joo Jin Mo whose role gives his all to be with his one and only love , she seems cold blooded at some points !
I'm not saying she was bad but she couldn't impress you neither as a lover nor a mother !
Another choice (instead of Kim Sa Rang) could help this drama develop a lot !
Kim Tae Hoon , His acting is really good and admirable but his character seems confusing ! Is he a miserable handicapped ?! A psycho who made VERY BIG LIES to live with the woman he loved and even tried to kill himself ?! Or the best father in the world ?!!! Eventually his unknown yet sensitive character is cruely LEFT aside as he never existed ! (This is what annoyed me the most in this drama)
MUSIC : (7/10)
Good soundtracks ! Still there were some dramatic scenes which needed more dramatic music !
Rewatch Value : (5/10)
I'm not planning to watch it again ! but anyone who like first-love melodramas might give it another try
The ending is ... logical but not satisfying for it's hot story ! It's might be good at some points but won't impress you a lot , for sure !
For romantic-melodrama fans , it's a realistic , sweet love story you would like ! so give it a try specially if you're Jo Jin Moo's fan like me ;)
Final word : reviewing is mostly about comparing ! So nothing is 100% in this world as well as this review ,It's only written comparing with other dramas/movies and it's rated toward my other ratings for other worse or better dramas/movies !
Thanks for reading my words ! Bye ^_^
