Adolescence Medley

사춘기 메들리 (Adolescence Medley) is a Korean drama special consisting of four episodes that aired from July 10th to July 31st 2013 on KBS2.

Story: Choi Jung-woo has transferred schools for seven times and finally learned that it's easiest to live as if he was invisible and to not get involved with anyone. But after transferring to Namil High School Yang Ah-young talks him into doing lots of school chores. Meanwhile his seatmate is bullied. Though he doesn't want to get involved he ends up yelling at the bullies and gets into a fight with "Brown Bear", a school legend at fighting.
When he learns his father isn't going to be transferred to Seoul Jung-woo can't run away from his problems anymore and therefore has to face those.

Cast: Kwak Dong-yeon plays the teen Choi Jung-woo. Personally I like the way he's acting in this drama, sure it's the role of an impulsive teenager, maybe because he was 16 when this drama was filmed and aired as well. Lee Se-young as Yang Ah-young is the one talking him into school services and also the one he asks out for his revenge. Kwak Jung-wook as Im Deok Won is the bullied seatmate because of whom Choi Jung-woo becomes active.
Others include Choi Tae-joon as "Brown Bear" Lee Yeok-ho, Park Jung-min as Shin Young-bok and Baek Sung-hyun as adult Choi Jung-woo.

Skipping the part soundtrack because I can't really say something about that, I really like this drama, it's the story of a loner who suddenly sees himself confronted with the world and has to deal with the consequences. Friendship and first love - completely teenager things but I still think that this drama is nice compared to others.
With a rating 8/10 I think it's really a good way to spend a day.
