i've only watched the first episode and i was hooked after a minute. keke the younger bong man aka Choi Si won is hot. soon i'm sure everyone is going to drool over him.

anyways i find this very interesting and to me the plot is somewhat different from the rest of the dramas. I had tons of laugh in this...i can't wait to watch the 2nd episode.

Totally recommended...if you like light and funny series...

No one has any what the ending is yet since it hasn't even finished airing in Korea. The actual number of episodes is yet to be determined too. But from the concensus, it's a keeper. I like it loads and plan to d/l more to see if I should buy it when it comes out. It's hilarious..

ahh..i love this series a lot..its really funny and cute..the hubby is really "nice and adorable". but i don't wan it to be too long though..cos the story would tends to be repetitive and will get boring in the end..just my opinion..

i'm only on the first few episodes, and i love it, too. it's cute and funny, but touching, too. though i think the amnesia thing is over-used in dramas, i like how they add in the high school flashbacks to make it more unique. and of course, that gives us a chance to see the young Bong Man. wink.gif

I've been watching this series.. funny man!! But think its getting draggy towards the end.. well got 2 more episodes till the end,.... will let you know my opinion when i've completed watching it
crazylazy_chief
I love this series...eheh, though I have only watched two episodes with English subtitles..yeah, I was drooling over Choi Shi Won, though he doesn't get that much screentime. T.T

I like watching this series. I like the part when she reverts back to when she was 18. It's very funny how bad things keep happening to her. I think the couple was sweeter when they were younger. They seem to have drifted apart when they became 29. I don't like that other woman. She is just a fly in the ointment.
k.ay
this is a cute drama! both the couple when they are younger and older are cute. the main girl is funny. especially, because she acts like she 18 again.
there young counter parts are cute too. especially the younger guy.. hot!
Leila_Tong_FaNaTiC
I really love dat guy Kim Noon!! He's soo good looking. Anyone know if this is his first series? Thanx!!

innocentbeb

zashibear
I enjoyed watching this series. They were so funny. And there were moments of tenderness. I love the flashbacks when she remembers what happened when she was 18. The young actors were so cute too. This series is fun to watch. At least not too much crying and dying.
manicpanic
i'm still watching this drama...i think the final episode airs tomorrow. it has cute and sweet moments. i still haven't read the translations yet, so i don't know too much of what's happening, but i know the gist of it happy.gif'

diana_sales: i still think Full House was better. but i'm a Bi and SHG fan, so i'm biased tongue.gif

h0bbes: here's a synopsis -->

QUOTE
"1829" is based on Ji Su-hyeon's Internet novel "The 4321 Days We Shared." This drama takes the audience back to the 1990s. The main character of the drama, Yoo Hye-chan, 29, reverts mentally to an 18-year-old girl after having a car accident. As she recovers her memory and the relationship with her husband, Kang Sang-yeong, she goes through many hilarious and heart-moving moments.

Hye-chan, who was a beauty queen in high school, marries her former classmate Kang Bong-man. In 2005, she turns 29. But after a fierce fight with her husband, she heads to court to file for divorce, unable to control her rage anymore. On her way to court, her car clashes with a truck, and as a result she develops amnesia. She only remembers herself as a senior high schooler, when she was sassy and outgoing, and popular with her peers. As her memory reverts to her adolescent years, she suddenly becomes crazy about the dance group "Seo Tae Ji and Kids," which was popular with teenagers back in the ‘90s. While looking strong on the surface, deep inside she is soft-hearted and feeble. She likes Jane Campion's movie "Piano" a lot. Although Kang Bong-man, nicknamed "Ice Prince," is the ideal of every girl in Hye-chan's school, she regards him as shallow. The guy she really likes is her senior, Jeong Shi-woo.

But in reality, Hye-chan's husband is Kang Bong-man, whom she despised so much in high school. He changes his name to Kang Sang-yeong when he becomes an actor. In the latter part of the drama, Hye-chan recovers her memory and pursues her dream of becoming a film director. When Hye-chan loses her memory, Sang-yeong becomes preoccupied with mending their shattered relationship. He collects all the messages they had exchanged in the past to help her remember who he is. The replays of Hye-chan's memories, which are presented in diverse ways, add to the drama's tantalizing plot.

OMg i cant get over the younger version of kang sang yoon
HE IS SOO CUTE...^.~
during the whole series i was looking forward into seeing him
is this his first movie anwayz the serie was pretty good
liquidfir
Oh my goodness. i love the flashback, i bought the show juz to c the flash backs. juz to see Choi Si won. he is soooo gorgeous!
sims
Where do you go to see more of Choi Si Won's picture? I try looking him up but no luck.
ripgal
i don't really understand wat's the thingy about choi si won...i mean he's hot..i admit that.. but he's not the focus of the drama. i think park sun young was the best in the drama. she's such a good actress!!! i've never seen her act in any drama b4 but this drama surely made me like her as an actress. her portrayal of hye chan was so good!!! so cute!! an older person portraying sumone with an 18yr old mental....really really cute!!

it's a good drama...enjoyable!! IMO, better than FH.
Guest_star_*
quite a funny yeah.gif drama with a happy ending...the only slight imperfection in this drama is quite slow progress in the middle.but i giv it higher recommendation than wonderful life(kim jae won n eugene)

Funny serie which you should watch! I am following it now, but as the subs are really slow i am still stuck at eps 3 or 4. I don't understand korean or read chinese subs, so I have to wait for the subs until I can finish this serie. There are not so many good funny korean series out there,but this is one of the good ones.

has anyone seen this serie yet?

Hmm...wonder why there was no comments for this show. Hehe... I guess I could start one. I love this show and love the way that the main actress had to start from the top from when she knew her husband and learn that she really loves him and didn't want a divorce. Her losing her memory made her husband have to go through memory lane and try to solve all his mistakes that he made when she didn't lose her memory. So that later on, their marriage could become stronger! laugh.gif
bubblebeebite
this show was painful ... after glowing recommendations, i was mega disappointed! i don't usually NOT watch the rest of the series once i've started it - but i SOOooooooooo did this time (altho admittedly, the vids were due!)

something was just not kosher between the cast!
sorrowmask
I just started watching it.. It is so good.. It is really funny.. I like the main actress from the Oh Pil Sung drama with Chae Rim and Anh Jae Wook...Cant wait to download...
icepeachii
Does this drama happen to be abit similar to Sweet 18?
Ramen
I think this show is pretty hilarious lols~
I wanna know though... who's the actor of kang bong man when he was 18.
He was damn cute [the 18 YO kang bong man] xp

I agree that sometimes the show gets boring but at times and particularly at the end of every episodes,
it just cuts perfectly at the most crucial suspension point! lol
then it makes me want to watch the next episode~

The plot is actually sweet as well... especially when kang sang yeong started to change to make his wife stay with him... touching >.<

hmmm yeah overall I like this series.

*I really wanna know who played the 18 year old Kang bong man >.<]*
lilxsylvie
^ the young Kang Bongman is played by Choi Si Won. He's in a 12 member group in SM town >_<

this was cute in the beginning but it got a little draggy towards the middle. I liked it when they showed flashbacks. i only liked the flashbacks when they were wayy young when choi si won was there tongue.gif hehe

edit: i found the original thread for 18 vs 29

I quite like the story, it has a warm feeling, touching and facinating ending too. Park Sun Young was acted just good, no matter she is 18 or 29.

I find this series very very funny. though i can't say much about the chemistry between the two leads. it's like something is missing. but the story and plot is pretty good. biggrin.gif
