This show is heavily underrated, I really enjoyed it! I watched one or two episodes a day for the past two weeks and I was just completely immersed in the world and the characters, which they did a very good job at making you form bonds with them all.
Now don't get me wrong, the ending was not great, hence why I can't give 'Record of Youth' the infamous 5 star review ; the ending really wasn't as bad as people were making it out to be.
Jeong-ha was a character that definitely intrigued me but her decision to to break up with the beautiful and quite frankly the perfect man, Hye-jun was bizarre, poorly explained and just overall frustrating. Break ups like that bug me so much, both in shows and in real life. She wanted to do her own thing and be independent... but like when did he ever stop you from doing that or ever did anything but comfort, love, and support you? So very annoying!
Also as a side note, Park Bo-gum is such an amazing actor and I feel like every show he's in, he's always way too good for the person he's dating/married to, with this being no exception.

watched it for park so dam bc i really like her acting, and the first 5 episodes were truly enjoyable, with such a refreshing dynamic and friendship between those two! but after 5 episodes i was already tired of it, they didnt have any passion just "emotional" and direct conversation. didnt expect the ending, but it kinda make sense. guess im not really a fan of this show!
