Beautiful and heart wrenching
22 January 2023
One of the best series I've ever seen.

It was interesting and new to learn about the 90s in Korea and the story is a (very)bitter(but oh so)sweet coming of age story, about finding yourself and the contrast between following your dreams and sacrificing them for the sake of your family.

I loved the actors, they did a great job in portraying the characters, which are all so lovable, you'll feel as if they're your friends. Speaking of friends, this series has not only a beautiful love story, but also one of the best representations of friendship I've ever seen in a tv show.

I've cried a lot but I'd watch it again and I recommend it to everyone. Just don't watch it when you're feeling down.

THIS STORY WILL HEAL YOU
2 December 2021
This is the first k-drama I've seen and it's honestly the best discovery ever.

It's a story about healing, above all: many scenes made me cry (I was so moved), but it really brought me joy. It heals your soul, I swear.

I loved every character, they are very well portrayed and their relationships are truly wholesome.

Also, amazing love story and great chemistry (I fell in love with both the protagonists).

BRILLIANT
12 October 2021
I discovered this show by chance (they really don't advertise European products enough) and I'm so glad I did.

It's a gem: funny, tender, smart, overall it's a wholesome show.

It portraits very well the contradictions of the 60s, the old strict norms and the "revolution" coming.

You will laugh, get moved and fall in love with every character.

Young Royals (2021–2024)

Please watch it

Please watch this show and tell your friends and family to watch it, you won't regret it.

Young Royals isn't the typical shallow teen drama at all.

It's wholesome, the level of minorities' representation is unbelievable and every detail has its meaning.

The story and the characters are also very realistic and the actors are simply amazing, even if they are so young (their chemistry just kills me).

This show is so tender, delicate yet powerful, it's crazy. We need to see more and more stories like Wilhelm and Simon's, it's so important to have lgbtq representation.

The title and trailer make it look like it's the classic shallow teen drama, but it really isn't anything like that.

Young Royals portrays perfectly a young love. It's delicate, moving, truthful.

The two protagonists are great, their acting is amazing and the chemistry just hits you.

We need more stories like this, gay love needs more representation!

Sweden never disappoints me.

Swing Kids (1993)

Swing heil!

Great movie, it deals with a topic that very few movies represent. I don't understand how its rating is not higher, I was very moved and I totally recommend it.

I think it really manages to depict how hard it was for people in nazist Germany to remain true to themselves and to the good part of human nature.
