I live in Ssangmundong. Periodt.

This is the first show that feels so alive for me. I once lived in Ssangmundong! I once fell in love with my best friend's sister! I once had hard times to sleep because i was too anxious with my upcoming competition! I once won lottery and became rich! I once had an unspoken crush on my best friend! I once had role in Olympics opening ceremony!

I love how they successfully made every character shines in their own story. And trust me the chemistry between the WHOLE neighborhood is too strong in every aspect: friendship, romance, siblings, parents. Trust me.

And for the iconic element of Reply series, the love triangle/husband-guessing part is quite fun and..rocky ? both male leads are so likeable. And female lead has great chemistry with both. So I warn you, whoever you choose you'd end up falling for the second lead (but who is the second lead anyway? There's no second lead)

The message depicted in this show is clear and done beautifully. Go watch it! Do not easily feel bored in the first episodes because once you get it through the end you'd never move on from this show.

The only thing I didn't like is the ending. I feel depressed when I watched the ending. Like you know I felt so sad when one-by-one, they left their old houses in Ssangmundong :"( I could never rewatch the flashback scenes in ep 20 :")))
