Who ever wrote this story I give a round of applause to you. Well written and thought out. This is not the average romance cliche story where they take a basic plot of of a irritating girl, thats immature then they match them with the respectable well educated and rich guy. Knowing The girl doesn't deserve the guy at all. Thankfully twinkling Watermelon is nothing like that. The characters in this show are given a real indepth back ground and helps you to understand them better. You can see the real emotions in the characters and their journey of highs and lows we see them in their growth. This story will make you laugh, cry and dance. This is now in my top 10 kdramas of all time. Again well done to the writers, actors and directors.

Don't let the title of the drama or the cast of second leads discourage you from watching it!

It took me a while to decide to press play and it was truly a delightful experience!

Without spoiling anything ..the show reignited my love for music...reminded me that my parents were once teenagers with hopes , dreams and inner struggles.. Just like twenty five twenty one drama.. Sparkling Watermellon will make you recall your first love which could either be a heartwarming or a heartbreaking experience. Nonetheless, you'll feel nostalgic for the past and its simple joys!

The show is still ongoing as I write this review, I'm on episode 9 and I still don't get its title?!

The best kdrama in 2023!! Finally after very long time I have watched a good heart felt and beautiful drama.

All actors were too good and their chemistry was so so amazing. Their acting though<<<<<<33333. I felt their emotions, I cried with them , I laughed with them, I felt sad with them, writer made us to connect with each and every character in this drama. Writer give importance to each and every character that was the bestest thing. I suddenly felt like I should learn sign language that shows how much this show has an impact.

Hopefully we can see this kind of masterpiece again and again in kdrama world.

If you are looking for some heartfelt romance with great actors then please go for it!!

Really good drama that lets its four leads sparkle. Twinkling Watermelon features themes of family and identity at various times in the characters' lives, and while it looks like a fun ride on its nostalgic surface, this series has bigger emotional payoffs simmering just under the surface. Boy, do the final two episodes serve up the full force of the writer's prowess. In the end, each character develops the tools to help them communicate better whether through signing, music, or simply summoning the courage to ask the questions they never could. The male leads are excellent especially in the finale episodes but it's Choi Hyun-Wook, who has shone in everything he's done to date, demonstrating again why he'll be the next big thing in Korean tv.

I have watched A LOT of dramas and this was very special in many ways.

They have done a fantastic job mixing a lot of genres that I had no idea they could mix this well and seamlessly.

It is very emotional and deep, but then it's silly and super fun and lighthearted. Then it's beautifully romantic and you will love the bond and loyalty of all of their friendships.

And the most special part is of course the value of family and how our male lead is doing everything he can to make his loved ones change their fate to be the happiest they can be.

There's so many complex subjects and subplots as well, but it works so well. Story is well paced and the twists are great and not predictable. The characters are well written and rich in layers and development.

Honestly, the writers of this drama deserve recognition for this work.

The chemistry amongst the cast is fantastic in general but the main pair and their bromance ( or better said father and son) is unbeatable. I had moments where I was honestly crying of laughter.

I have been following Choi Hyun Wook and his impressive acting for a while ( specially in Weak Hero Class), and it's just very unbelievable to me that he is only 21. I can't wait to see more of him.

But I do have to make a special mention of Ryeoun, the display of emotions he shows playing this character is amazing, he made me cry a few times and his eyes were just pure emotion the whole time. What a performance.

Overall was an amazing watch and the only reason am not giving a 10 is because I feel the entire ending was a bit rushed, otherwise it is truly an outstanding drama.
