in short, I did not like it at all. Sure, it's realistic, but it's just not it.
I felt its useless and a waste of time. I did not like the plot, and I was anticipating much more than what I got... it definitely was not satisfying...
Could've been better... it had much more potential.. I wish the story was written differently.
now im writing more because it wont let me submit my review unless its 500 characters.
lol
I already wrote what I wanted to say...
And to the previous review that said its a waste of good actors, I 1000000000000% agree.

I watched this because of Arata Mackenyu
When I decided to watch this movie, it was basically because im a hardcore fan of Macken. Generally this movie isn't the type that i would watch or enjoy... but i still watched it and gave it a shot. In short, i felt like it had a stagnant plot. I was constantly waiting for something to happen but nothing really did. I understand it was more of a brotherhood type of movie, but in my view it was just... cars. And to be frank the racing scenes were the most exciting- at least something was going on, and it had you anticipate something...I wouldn't watch it again., but one must praise the actors- they did a good job with portraying the frusrration and sadness, though it had no depth to it because of the story line...
Honestly it's a 5/10 but i added a 1.5 because macken :')

You will cry. When you watch this, you will definitely cry. Very much.
You will cry like an elephant, like a pig, like a monkey... You will cry wishing you had an arata mackenyu in your life. you will cry resenting the writers of this movie. you will cry because he takes on that role. In conclusion, you will cry.
I do not like this move. I love it and hate it at the same time. It is so sad. I knew what was coming- it is so cliche you will predict it, yet It still hit me like a train. I cried so much my eyes are puffy. and I am now suffering a headache that won't go away.
I also wanted to keep the rewatch value blank but they wont let me.... i dont think ill ever rewatch this. but i wanna see his face again. His personality- his character in the movie is what i love the most. AND THE MUSIC- SO GOOD.

Read my review and then you will understand
See, this is interesting.I'll keep this short and straight to the point because honestly what i want to say isn't much. This review doesnt contain "spoilers" perse but like... whatever I'll just get into it:
This drama is plotless, and it makes absolutely no sense, BUT I LOVE IT!!!!!
ITS SO FLUFFY SO CUTE SO ADORABLE AND LET ME TELL YOU THE ML-- PICTURES DONT DO HIM JUSTICE

HE reminds me so much of Gordon and Mackenyu ( tho Macken will always be my no.1) BUT I WAS IN LOVE
IT'S JUST LOVE. OVERFLOWING LOVE.
If you want something that wont give you a head or heartache, you know, something sweet and straight to the point and adorable and loveydovey... something that doesnt make sense but still makes you feel so loved and has you squealing every two seconds, then
THIS IS WHAT YOU WANT.

Here’s an expanded version of your review:---
*It took me five years to finally convince myself to watch "When the Camellia Blooms"... and my God, I wasted SO MUCH TIME WAITING! Why did I do that?*
This drama is an absolute masterpiece. It pulls you in with its simplicity, its heartfelt storytelling, and its ability to balance moments of warmth, tension, and emotion so seamlessly. The beauty of the show lies in its ability to blend romance, comedy, and suspense, while keeping everything grounded in a very relatable reality.
Hwang Yong-sik—he’s a walking green forest. No, if green could be a human being, it would be him. His character is pure, unwavering, and honestly one of the most wholesome depictions of love and integrity I’ve seen on screen. He brings such a breath of fresh air into every scene, and his relentless pursuit of justice and love is both admirable and heartwarming.
I LOVE

Waste of time
I watched this after considering that this was made a very long time ago. I purposely watched it due to the cliche plot because I wanted something lighthearted, but this wasn't very pleasant. It isn't because of the cliches, it's more due to the production, acting, and direction of this movie. It's just old, and I think this type of acting was the trend back then... Yeah... If this was done nowadays in a form of a story that's written in a better manner and more advanced production, it would be a typical fun cliche. otherwise, taking it as is, it's just horrible.Was this review helpful to you?
One word: Mackenyu
honestly Mackenyu's the reason why i watched this. the concept is not new, neither is the story. would only watch again for macken lol. im completely biased here. I like his face and I like his acting. I acknowledged him first with Kento Yamazaki's Todome no kiss. Little did I know ill end up fallinggggggg and fallingggggggg aaaaand falling for these two. Its rare to find a drama with Macken as a first lead. So, my friends, watch it for him not for the story unless youve never came across a time laps concept/ repeating the same day thingyWas this review helpful to you?
