I'll be forever amazed to see how a coming of age kdrama-comedy can easily turn to be a deep drama from one episode to the other. I think this is a characteristic of the seriality made in Korea to have a fluctuating variation of styles within the same season. Probably Hollywood accustomed us viewers to hiper standardized products which, like apples at the supermarket, must be predictable and always maintain the product boundaries of "what's stated in the labels". I'm wondering if this is one of the reasons why K-series are becoming so popular around the world. Probably yes. Well very enjoyable, ultra violence and revenge story at its finest.

Why the low rating on this gem? Honestly I'm surprised considering the reviews on here are all 10s. Surely we can't be delusional right? Well don't believe our scores simply just go watch this and you will not regret it.

Watch it for the cinematography which is just breathtaking to say the least. This is your typical underdog story so you know what to expect. The kid who is bullied and finally decides to stand up for himself and others like him. It's also about finding yourself when you think and feel all hope is gone and lost. The story is straight forward nothing overly complicated. You will laugh ad smile a lot whilst watching this but you will definitely find yourself shedding a tear or two.

Yim Si-wan is the lead and oh boy! He is simply brilliant in this. I have watched him in a few K-dramas now and each time I see him he leaves me wanting more. He is so diverse in a every role he plays but on Boyhood he just takes it to a whole new level.

I feel 10 episodes does it a lot of justice as most Korean shows overplay their hand and lose substance when they have filler episodes. But Boyhood moves at a fast controlled pace and you enjoy each episode that it almost ends with you still wanting more which is always a good sign.

This show is an absolute gem! Im Siwan was amazing, as always, and the whole cast did such a great job.

I really loved the female lead and just wish there had been more moments between the two leads.

The cinematography was beautiful and fit the story so well. I loved how the show mixed humor with the serious topic of bullying it felt natural and real .

The subtle foreshadowing throughout the story also added a lot of depth.

What I enjoyed the most was watching the male lead grow.

Seeing him overcome his weaknesses and stand up for what he believes in was so inspiring. I was cheering for him the entire time!

The pacing was just right, keeping me hooked from start to finish.

It made me laugh and cry, and I love when a show can take me on that kind of emotional ride.

Overall it was such an incredible watch, and I absolutely loved every moment of it.

It is super fun,never dull.every single character is well written and I am eager to know more about all of them.

I don t think you have to be a K Drama fan to watch this , I beleive in puberty we are all silly and awkward wherever we might be,so this story is speaking to all of us :) If you are K Drama fan then I can say that it has similiar vibe to Reply 1988 , and the it gives away the same warmth.

I am really enjoying it so far, and if anyone is deciding shoud they watch it or no,please give it a try you will not regret it for sure. The whole cast is giving amazing performance ,hopefully they will all get many many rewards :D <3.

"Boyhood" is a hidden gem that deserves more recognition. The cast, especially IM SI WAN, delivers exceptional performances, and the story captivates with its consistently engaging plot, effortlessly weaving together moments of joy, pain, and self-discovery. The vintage or retro setting adds to its charm, and the ending authentically portrays the behaviors of boys at that age. Each episode is a compelling chapter in the lives of these boys, filled with humor, drama, and moments of profound insight. Overall, "Boyhood" is a must-watch and earns a spot on any top KDrama recommendation list. This series is a true gem that deserves to be cherished and celebrated..........,
