Brilliant acting brings life to the story
Yes, this movie is a wonderful exaple of how good acting can work wonders for an average story.
The true charm lies in the fact that the lead actress played by Park Bo Young is a force to reckon with. She is a badass leader of her gang but has a soft spot for the school playboy. Joong Gil, played by Lee Jong Suk, is in his salad days. He flirts with girls without any worries about the future. He fall for the new girl in the school.
It is simple love triangle and yet, the innocent charm of Joong Gil and the Yoon Sook's sincerity will truly win your heart and make you root for them.
Thank you for reading.
Thank you for reading.
A teen-flick involving love, enmity and of course "hot blood" !
"Hot young blood" is a teen-flick- an action-romance movie about enmity, rivalries, love-triangle among the young students in the early 80's in the countryside of South Korea. They seemed to be hot-tempered so often rival groups of boys and girls were engaged in fighting. The hero was a playboy and the heroine was a female gang-leader.
At some particular scenes it has portrayed landscape of village which was eye-soothing. And the soundtrack was also good. The lead actors and actresses did their best but continuous sanguinary fighting and conflict just for "my girl" and other tiny issues was not adorable to me. Severe punishment of immorality was also expected. However sometimes this movie managed to uphold teenage psychology which involves the reluctance to follow the straight path and courteous manner for having "hot young blood" .
It's got a subtle similarity with another box-office hit Korean movie "Sunny (2011)" - both the movie focused on the same period and clashes among hot-tempered teenage people yet " Sunny" was a movie involving much deeper emotion and friendship. And I believe, most of the teenagers even in today's restless society don't possess such hot blood and they are more considerate in cherishing friendship to lead a better future rather than creating such enmity among them! :) .

Very nostalgia, good movie!
Fun movie to watch if your 13 to 35 years old. I love the simple story of their love story. I recommend this for anyone who loves comedy-romance film especially now at lockdown. I should've watched this sooner. Park Bo-Young's acting has always surprise me. I'm loving every Park Bo-Young movies and I think I'm in love with her.
One of the best movie
I've seen many Korean movies and dramas, but none have touched me like this one. It opened my eyes and made me realize how we only understand the true value of something after we lose it. The emotions, storytelling, and acting were so powerful that I felt deeply connected to every character. It beautifully captures the pain of loss and the importance of cherishing what we have before it's gone. Every scene carried a message that stays with you long after the movie ends, making it a truly unforgettable experience.
The jokes is not for everyone
Despite the jokes are not really enjoyable due to culture differences between my country and Korea, the story is good. Its not only focusing on the love life of the characters, but also how the lead characters evolve by showing how certain factor in their life really given a big impact on them.
