    A motivational drama for dreamers!

    If you want to get motivated when pursuing your dreams, you can watch this drama. I like the music and the spirit of their characters when pursuing their dreams. The only downside is the lipsync, it looks very unrealistic, a typical mistake for all K-Drama with singing scene. The only good one is when Kim Soo Hyun sing "Dreaming"

    Brilliant, great acting and story. loved it

    Great acting. Dreaming of and working towards fame; the students work hard and some get tremendous support. Friendships flourish whilst in each others company. The adult relationships progress whilst the students relationships with each other change as they grow into adulthood. The one who should be thankful to those who gave great support does not acknowlege them when stardom arrives. The energy, pace of the film was good, thoroughly enjoyable. The acting and singing of Suzy Bae was superb

    Dream High- An adorable and motivating drama of dreamers

    "Dream High" is a captivating musical drama that focused a group of young students of Kirin High School and their passionate journey through music to fulfill their dreams overcoming all the haphazard of life under the guidance of some motivating teachers. And the drama was simply moving and touching in many senses with fantastic music score. Some plot holes can be overlooked being mesmerized by the realistic plot line and natural acting.

    From the third episode, I really got into the drama and it was overall so interesting and heart-warming. Tough but emotional character Go-Hye Mi (the then newbie actress Suzy Bae quietly succeeded in turning out the main character, she's an awesome singer too), her follower friend Yoon Baek Hee, fatty but cutely Kim Pil Suk (IU) (both of their transformation are quite interesting),helpful and caring guy Jin Guk (Taecyeon was so lovely and matured in that role), music prodigy country boy Song Sam Dong ( cool alien Do Min Joon of "My Love from the Star" was a way too crazy!), , handsome Jason, inspirational guide - teacher Kang and also the other supporting characters were touching at least for some moments .

    At some times, the plot seems to get too melodramatic but I enjoyed the drama till the special concert whole-heartedly. It was an attractive display of modern Korean music and dance too.

    "Nan kkumi issoyo. Khu kkum-eul midoyo" ( I have a dream. I believe in that dream)- then hard effort is imperative to fulfill any great dream. We can be in ease in handling difficult situations just by smiling at fears. A good teacher is like a light house. In ups and downs of life, family and friend support can turn out to be a great relief. And after taking a decision, don't regret over it, you've a chance to prove it the best!- these inner morals of this drama are easy to say, tough to implement in real life but obviously these have made the drama ultimately inspirational , moving and memorable .

    Just to mention, I watched the impressive first season only and don't have any wish to watch the second season with totally different cast. :)

    Review

    Dream High is a Korean musical drama television series. Dream High is what makes me like Korean songs. What I like most about Dream High is the story of the 6 main characters who work hard with each other, in realizing their dreams of becoming stars in the Korean music industry. Besides that, I also like the Theme OST Song called "Dream High", a catchy Korean song. Dream High is highly recommended for people who love Korean movies and Korean music.
