At A Distance, Spring Is Green

Korean Drama "At A Distance, Spring is Green" is a college drama that separates itself from the rest by focusing on the friendship aspect, rather than the romance. That is not to say that there wasn't a love story. There was one indeed, but it wasn't the main prompt of the story and it was of less intensity and enjoyment, though it had its cute moments.

The friendship though was the star of the drama. It allowed the characters to grow, open up about their struggles and overcome them eventually. The characters had great chemistry to boot.

As for the family drama, it was well paced and had enough intensity to keep things interesting. The college life part was enjoyable too, and it didn't overshadow the main story or get tiring.

Finally, the performances were great from everyone in the cast and the cinematography had the right youthful vibes.

So, overall, 8 out of 10.

A show with a good balance of romance and friendship which talks about the difficulties that young adults face.

I'm going to be really honest with you: I did not know where this show was headed as the description of the plot somewhat hints at the show to be a BL drama. So, if you're thinking in the same direction, let me tell you this: It's NOT.

Instead, this series is about three young people - who couldn't possibly be any more different from each other - meeting in college and finding themselves constantly tangled up in each other's business, thus leading to them becoming the most unexpected best friends - and more (remember: NO BL DRAMA HERE! Lol).

And during this journey of becoming friends, they not only learn a lot about each other, but also about themselves and about society - ultimately giving us viewers a few life lessons on the way.

And while everything I just said sounded super boring and serious and typical, this show is anything but, I promise you! You'll laugh to your heart's content, you'll shed a few tears and - most importantly - you'll feel empowered and recharged with energy to tackle the next challenge of your life after watching this amazing series.

So why the minus?

Somewhere between episodes 8 to 10 I felt like the plot lost its energy and like it was stuck somehow...? But that only lasted for 1 episode, 2 max. And resolved itself quickly after.

This drama will be all-time favourite ever of everyone who got the special chance to watch it!! Coz not everyone is blessed to witness this kind of Gem!! Amazing storyline with amazing actors!! Just need more series like this in K-drama industry!!

I've watched it because Park JiHoon, one of my bias was in the series. I didn't hope this drama to be that good. It really represents about the life of youth, the Spring time which was mixed with family problems, financial problems and worries about the life after graduate. The chemistry between he characters are good and strong. It is worth to watch. But the one thing that I don't like is in some scene, it contains some kinds of aegyo, which means little cuttie things. It can be a little cringing for some people( And I was one of them, hehe). But don't worry, that won't make this drama destroyed. In conclusion, it's really worth to watch drama if you like slice of life drama and youth life drama.
