Age of Youth

I just finished watching Age of Youth/ Hello, My Twenties and it was one of those dramas that will be remembered.

Before, I’ve tried watching it but the 1st episode didn’t really gave an impact on me. So when I saw it on Netflix, I decided to give it another try, since I’m turning 20 this year, I thought that I might relate to it now and it did. Hello, My Twenties is now engraved in my mind.

Age of Youth/ Hello, My Twenties Season 1

Age of Youth/ Hello, My Twenties Season 2

First, about the friendship that was shown in the drama is what I imagine of friendship goals. The kind where everyone speaks bluntly and not stab you in the back. Those who care for you and will be ready to back you up anytime. The Belle Epoque house was also very lovely and I’d like to experience living in one someday.

Yoo Eun Jae

At first I saw myself in Eun jae when she started college. I know how it feels not being able to speak up because I was too scared of what might happen. I was too careful and kept my troubles to myself. Like Eun jae, I moved to the city and live in a dorm with 4 room mates.

Jung Ye Eun

Ye Eun was the type of girl everyone gets along with. I saw my cousin (who is also my roommate) in her personality most of the time. She’s very simple and she’s strong. The way she handled her trauma and overcame it without giving up and continued to go to school is what I liked about her. She is always honest and speaks her mind.

Song Ji Won

For most parts, I totally saw myself on Ji Won’s personality. In my group of friends, I’m the noisy one, the one who screams, the one who always jokes around, the one who try to lighten up the mood when it gets intense, the one who never really notices the changes happening around and the one who receives the news last. She’s an angel in the eyes of Eun jae because she’s so kind that she helps everyone with their problems and try to understand their situations without judging them. There’s one thing I like to have from Ji Won though, I wish I have a Sung Min HAHAHAHAHAHAH

Yoon Jin Myung

I can say Jin Myung stands up for the role of being the mother or the leader of the Belle Epoque. Maybe because she’s the oldest, she’s very mature and she takes care of everyone. Before, I used to think that I need to have a lot of friends but then, like Jin Myung, I realized that I only need a few who will really stand beside me to guide me and to be there for me through ups and downs.

Kang Yi Na

I envy her personality. Sometimes I wish that I could also be fierce and caring at the same time. She is always so honest and always stands up for her friends. She’s the type of friend that everyone wants, ready to fight anytime and doesn’t think twice to stand up for you. She maybe very prank but she’s only concerned and thinks what is best for you.

Jo Eun

Eun, the last who joined the group was very shy. I saw myself in her every time she wanted to help but too timid to approach others. I always find myself trying to help others but fails to because I was too shy to talk to them. Eun is very cute and cool at the same time. Specially her relationship with Hoon 😍

All in all, I would rate this drama a perfect 10 in my heart. ❤️

Hello My Twenties 2!

(Sorry it took so long)

This was a wild ride so buckle in! It’s kind of long but AMAZING I SWEAR!

Recap of characters-

This is now Eun Jae:

This is still Ji Won:

This is still Jin Myung:

This is still Ye Eun:

NOW. Yi Na is still technically in this drama but only for one full episode and then has quick appearances in two episodes towards the end. Since Yi Na has moved out, Jo Eun moves in.

This is Jo Eun:

This season was CRAZY GOOD SO LETS CHECK UP ON OUR GIRLS UWU

Eun Jae:

Is substantially less shy and more open about voicing herself. Not a complete character change but a believable evolution. Still very sweet. Still very brave. That obliviousness is still there but in a different form: not knowing the signs of when to let go. Speaking of which:

Eun Jae and Jong Yeol have broken up (sad face) and what’s worse is there’s no identified reason

Majorly this season deals with how she handles her first heartbreak and her first break up and Boy Does She Go Through It.

Basically the five stages of grief but add obsession and desperation to the list.

She tries everything to get Jong Yeol back; appearing sexy, trying to make him jealous, etc. But none of it actually works.

The season ends with them still not together but she finally accepts this fact even though she’s still heartbroken

She is the first to develop a relationship with Jo Eun

She also steps up when a man breaks into Belle Epoqe and asks Ye Eun to tie everyone up(but she still has PTSD and this situation is terrifying to her) but she tells her it’s okay and does it instead(more on this event later)

Ji Won:

WHEN I SAY THIS SEASON IS ALL ABOUT JI MF WON I MEAN IT. Her hair is now cute and long and curly. Style STILL on point. Still nosy and outgoing and HILARIOUS. We’re being teased with Sung Min/Ji Won constantly.

Okay strap in hoes here we go. Ji Won is a mythomaniac remember? I said with good reason though.

So during season one she had this ringing in her ear

During a scene at a bar it’s revealed she’s still a virgin. One of her coworkers, not in a rapey vibe way, says he finds her attractive and wants to have sex with her

At first she’s excited but then she kind of goes blank and the ringing comes back and she faints. She says “pretty shoes”(also to be noted, Sung Min shoves the guy away from her and is in care mode INSTANTLY for Ji Won and I swooned)

Turns out Ji Won lost some childhood memories and goes on a Nancy Drew-esque adventure with Sung Min to recover them. Are you ready???

So Ji Won goes looking for a friend of hers from third grade. They discover her friend had a hard life. Her friend committed suicide due to this fact. The man she was living with thinks Ji Won ruined her life and holds all the girls captive to figure out who it is. Ji Won thinks she told a lie that ruined her friend’s life but can’t remember what happened.

Then while Apple picking with the girls, ji Won remembers. She didn’t lie. In third grade, while playing hide and seek, Ji Won witnesses her friend being raped by their art teacher. Her friend earlier had said Ji Won had “pretty shoes” and Ji Won never wore them again after that.

After this incident, the personality we all know as the current Ji Won developed. She became a mythomaniac after this event. She discovers clues that her friend went to go see the art teacher that raped her and wrote Ji Won‘s address down in order to invite her to come to an event to honor that teacher. Her friend had planned to have Ji Won with her when she confronted him.

SO BIG FINALE Ji Won attends the art teachers event, planned by students to HONOR THE SICK RAPIST, and calls him out in front of students and his family and decided to go to COURT FOR HER FRIEND. Every one pitches in to help her. Some other students EVEN STEP UP AND TELL THEIR STORIES AS WELL! All her friends at the school paper and her housemates put together statements for Ji Won. It’s magnificent and probably my absolute favorite plot of this season.

On a bad note THEY KEPT TEASING MY OTP BUT NEVER GAVE US THE PAY OFF AND IM MAD BECAUSE THIS SEASON WAS CHOCK FULL OF SUNG MIN/ JI WON MOMENTS.

Jin Myung:

My cinnamon roll was going though it this season. Still the mom of the group. Now has a great job. Her and her chef (UwU) are going strong even with a long distance relationship. IS LITERALLY SUICIDE WATCH FOR SO MANY PEOPLE THIS SEASON IT’S SURPRISING THEY DIDNT DRAIN THE LIFE OUT OF HER.

Okay Jin Myung now works at a entertainment company. Work is in close quarters with a lot of kpop groups (PENTAGON IS IN THIS SHOW AS THE GROUP ASGARD AND I FAINTED! Universe! UNITE)

Her and Heimdall(a member of Asgard but not Pentagon) develop a close platonic relationship I thoroughly enjoy. He is so confident in his ability to make it as a kpop idol while she is apart of the management team that has decided to disband the very group he’s in

They’re friendship develops in a weird way that helps them both. Heimdall helps Jin Myung discover what it’s like to believe in herself absolutely. Jin Myung helps Heimdall discover that his talent is not all that he is. He isn’t defined by the success or failure of a dream and his life doesn’t depend on either outcome.

Also on suicide watch for Jin Myung: Ye eun which as we discovered last season was kidnapped by her ex bf. She’s has severe PTSD

Also on suicide watch for Jin Myung: Ji Won who for a while was depressed because she couldn’t save her friend.

Also on suicide watch for Jin Myung: Eun Jae going through her completely devastating break up.

This boss bitch gets no breaks

Ye Eun:

This was a rough season for this sweet baby too. Complete character change. Her hair is now black and she uses it to hide her face. She wears all black clothes for a majority of the season. Cannot go anywhere without someone to walk her there and back. Is terrified of men.

So as mentioned, Ye Eun was kidnapped by her ex last season. She has severe PTSD now and can’t go anywhere alone

Very slowly regains her joyful and bubbly composure

She incorporates color back into her wardrobe and even goes back to school.

She starts receiving threatening texts and letters and they spiral her back into her paranoia and mistrust of other people

It’s discovered one of her friends had that weird syndrome where she purposely put Ye Eun in scary situations so that she would become dependent on her. Crazy, I know.

It really takes a toll on Ye Eun because people keep insinuating that what happened with her ex was her fault. People even say she wasn’t kidnapped but having sex with her bf the entire time she was missing. They say she must not be a nice person to have all these people do such horrible things to her and it is hard for her to overcome. (I was so proud of her for not giving up. I love her Sm)

But despite all this, Ye Eun meets a slightly OCD but very sweet guy named Kwan Ho-chang who is an engineering major and knows nothing about dating or love. She overcomes her fear of men with him. He helps her out of her shell. It’s really a sweet and pure relationship. He always calls her a nice person and tells her she’s pretty.

Jo Eun:

Now I know I said Ji Won was Nancy Drew, but Jo Eun might be THE Nancy Drew of this season. Very tall. ( if Lucas joined NCT Dream, she would be Lucas and the other housemates would be the rest of Dream) she takes a while to warm up to the girls but eventually develops a very good friendship with them all. Is a kpop fangirl. Love her even more for it.

Backstory: Jo Eun is in a bookstore one day and a book drops right in her path, in it is a threatening letter with the housemates’ address on it. SO SHE MOVES INTO BELLE EPOQUE JUST TO FIGURE OUT WHICH HOUSEMATE IS IN DANGER SO SHE CAN SAVE THEM.

And guess who wrote the letter. Ji Won’s friend. It was a letter about what she was going to do to the art teacher. Mind *blown*

At first she keeps her distance but as everyone warms us she really likes them and takes care of them. She gets medicine for Eun Jae when she’s sick. She walks Ye Eun home from the bus stop when the other housemates are busy because she knows Ye Eun is scared.

She then develops a romantic relationship with the landlords relative after she sees him butt naked. Yes it is quite satisfying. Especially because he’s shorter than her. But he makes her believe she’s pretty and makes her feel wanted without needing to change herself. (Cutest moment is after her bae is enlisted he shows a passenger next to him his lock screen and it’s a picture of him and Jo Eun and I-✨💓❤️💕✨)

Again I know it was a lot but I didn’t mention a lot of EXCELLENT content. PLEASE watch this show. It’s so worth it. The way their individual stories are woven together is truly beautiful and unique.
