I applaud the writers of this drama for tackling sensitive issues such as trauma, pressure, eating disorder, and depression. Imo, the drama's depiction of depression is on point. Bokjoo knew that something was wrong with her but she couldn't pinpoint what and that's what the first stage of depression exactly is like--sometimes, the person himself has no idea that he's depressed but he knows something's wrong within him. Joonhyung immediately realized that Bokjoo's suffering from depression which is what also usually happens irl. Sometimes, it's the outsider who noticed the symptoms first. Weightlifting Fairy was able to show the good and bad things that college students deal with.
I couldn't agree more. This drama may seem like a fluffy romcom to many, but it actually deals with a lot of hard-hitting issues such as eating disorder and depression. I like how the writers didn't romanticise it and presented it in the most raw and heartbreakingly honest way. The actors - both Lee Sung Kyung and Nam Joo Hyuk - did a great job too, as the sufferer and the bystander.
This drama is one of the best dramas I've ever seen .. they convey the feelings so well , all the things that teens go through ..and this scene just makes me cry so much, because Bokjoo feels kinda depressed and I know those feelings, it's damn hard to get through it ..
lily uzuric when you're 20-21 you may be an adult legally, but at this age, you're still not fully an adult mentally ..you may be wiser than before, and yes you may be an "adult" already, but it's still a phase where you're growing up and where you learn whole bunch of new things :) and this drama is about it, about struggles that teens/adults may have gone through
I hate how this drama is so underrated because of its timeslot pars (Legend of the Blue Sea, Oh My Beum Gi). Whenever Wednesday and Thursday comes I look forward to watching Weightlifting Fairy more than the other shows. I mean, no hate, I really like the other shows, but for me, this show is the most realistic of them all. It uses the least cliches (like prince charming coming to the damsel's rescue etc). Also, the OST is divine 💜💜💜💜
exactly ! the situation of the characters is more relatable than the other dramas. . . i really love this kdrama, it utilizes real emotions and scenarios. ..
Everything that she mentioned is a symptom of someone who had a major depression. And I totally feel really bad for her after everything that she endured. It is undeniable a breakdown scene for me. And the fact that Joonhyung didn't say anything but hug her is so precious.
THIS IS MY MOST FAVORITE SCENE!!! THAT MOMENT WHEN YOU JUST FEEL THAT YOU JUST WANT TO TAKE A BREAK FROM EVERYTHING AND YOU DONT UNDERSTAND WHY. SO REAL.
when I was watching this part I starting crying so much because it's true all those feelings that you go thru are so intense you feel like your world is ending like your never going to get over it I felt like I was reliving my fist love when watching this drama it was definitely an emotional roller-coaster..I can't wait til next week it seems like finally they will both give each other a chance at least I hope so :)
I love the way Junhyun used manly way to talk with Bokjoo all the time and I love it when Junhyung deadly worried about Bokjoo so he yell and scold her for that. When Bokjoo called his name and start to cry. I cried with her 😿😿😿😿 I love these two so much.
First i got frustrated with bok joo being crying baby. But at this scene, i totally understand her breakdown. LSK delivered this scene beautifully. And joon hyung expression from anger to slowly change to worry and totally understand her pain.. I can see all those emotions in NJH eyes. Kudos to these two. The writing is so good and executed well. 👍👍👏
y setiawa Her suddenly becoming so sad and weak about everything is very real. I think all of us go through that phase at least once in our life. That phase when we just want to take a break from everything. This drama is so damn relatable.
When I first watched this scene it never hurt me the way it did the second time. When I watched it again I was physically exhausted from exams and so burned out I couldn’t even do basic things such as shower or eat and I never really understood why and I couldn’t find anything that made me relate . So when I watched this scene again I just broke down crying - I was absolutely sobbing and couldn’t control it because everything she felt I was feeling . Ugh the power of acting
"JoonHyung-Ah, i feel weird. I think i'm sick. Something seems wrong with me. I hate Weightlifting, i don't feel like doing anything. My heart seems like it's tearing apart." Just by hearing her say that, i cried. How terribly hurt she must've been to say these words out loud? But i could feel how worried he was about her. As soon as she said "I think i'm sick" He looked at her with teary eyes. You could tell how much he cares about her. When he saw her crying, he couldn't help but hold her in his arms. He just wanted to make her feel better and Bok Joo needed that. She desperatly needed that Hug from him, the shoulder she could lean on. As soon as she said "Joon Hyung-Ah" i knew she was gonna let everything out & that's what she needed to do. She knew she could trust him & that he would be there for her to give her that needed hug. Ugh, these two are just perfect for eachother😍 They probably have the best chemistry i've seen in a Drama so far 🙈
*[ENG SUB]* 0:40 JH: YA! what's the matter with you? WHERE ON EARTH HAVE YOU BEEN? - everyone was looking all over for you. - why did you turn off your phone? - are you a teenager? - did you go in hiding to make people worry? - HOW CAN YOU BE SO IMMAUTRE? .... - why do you keep making me feel uneasy? - why do you keep making me worry... if you're okay, kim bok joo? BJ: joon hyung ah... i feel strange... i think i'm sick BJ: i don't want to do anything.. i don't want to lift weights.. strangely, i feel so sleepy.. i feel listless JH: bok joo ah... BJ: i think a part of me is broken... i feel like something is pressing my heart.. it feels so frustrating, and it makes me sad BJ: what should i do? 😭😭😭
I just have to say this. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST MOST UNDERRATED DRAMA THIS 2016. THIS DRAMA DESERVES SO MUCH MORE ❤ Hoorah for LSK & NJH's acting!!! It's so flawless! 🎉🎉🎉👏👏👏
honestly both of them are so good at doing the little details in acting..like whenever i watch something i always observe how their expression looks like and how each part of their face and body corresponds to it and they do it so naturally. it's really hard to pull something like that.
I really like this drama... it depicts exactly what student athletes are going through... I’m also a student athlete, can’t say how great this drama is, it portrays all the struggles we as athletes been through.. THANKS WRITERS
I love the writing in this drama. Love all the lines, so natural, one second im crying, one second im cracking up, one second my heart goes awwwwww... And the cast doing such great job with their characters, kudos to the production team, love love love 😍☺️☺️👍
I cried so much with this scene. I felt related to Kim Bok Joo, because it's one of those moments where you're frustrated with a situation and you just feel overwhelmed. Maybe you feel like everything is going bad, you feel sad and don't know what to do. Those moments when you just need to cry and be hugged.
I honestly didn't give this a chance when this first came out because im not really into coming-of-age dramas but since i got bored i decided to watch this AND OMG YES. This drama is perfectly written well. I feel for Bokju so much, I cry when she cries. I'm happy when she;s happy. And her relationship with Joonhyung is so heartwarming. They became the best of friends who's been very honest with each other. Man i can't wait for the next eps.
For me this is touching for me on another level. I saw this scene by accident and I fell I'm love with it. Cause somewhere in a fantasy world she gets someone who understands and hold her and even cry for her. It's comforting to me even if it's just a drama. Because no one ever did that to me. I love love loveeee this scene
Rough translation! Not perfect! Sorry if I misinterpret anything. JH: Hey punk! What the hell?! Where have you been for you to appear now?! Do you know your friends were looking everywhere for you?! Why did you off your phone?! Are you going through puberty right now?! You're making people worried by playing hide and seek or what?! What the hell do you think you're doing?! Why do you make people so concerned? Why do you make me be concerned for you when you don't even know what I'm feeling right now, Kim Bok Joo? BJ: Joon Hyung ah... I feel weird. No matter what, I feel like I'm in pain. I don't feel like doing anything, I hate weightlifting even more and I'm always sleepy. There's no energy left (in me). JH: Bok Joo yah... BJ: Ah... I must be breaking down somewhere. My heart feels suffocated. It's frustrating, and I'm always feeling sad. What do I do?
this week I think was the saddest I've seen the episodes get. kind of like scarlet heart, how it started incredibly warm and sweet but go so much darker later on. Can't wait for next week..... Huemnerra Kim Bok Joo....
I was in the same situation and all i wanted was someone to hug me and let me cry as muchasi want without judging me , i didn't want to cry alone that's what i wanted. But no one was there , no one is here now and i think that no one will be here in the future.
I'm so thankful that finally there's such scenario in a kdrama. Something I can really relate to. Being sad and depressed without knowing the reason why. And now, whenever I do feel this way, I just go back to this scene and it makes me feel a little better.
At first i really love The legend of the blue sea but when i saw this show (Weightlifting fairy kim bok joo) on facebook I immediately search for the episode 1 and i love it already
Some people say this drama doesnt have much of a story... i disagree . Its about everyday life, friendship, depression and not giving up despite that. Truth to be told it is what actually happens in reality..
I think there is alot of people who needs hug like this one ...i'm one of those people ...if anyone that i feel peace with hug's me like that i will cry so hard ...even i smiled befor that ...couse thire is feelings which you always try to hide ...but at some moment you will throwgh it away couse you got enough from it ...☺..i can give you one if you need ...😊 ...but i can't get one ..that littel sad ...Lol...
This drama is so damn good and make me feel hurt 😞 and feel sad but I don’t even know what they say but still feel sad and hurt the way she act it 😔😔❤️❤️

Why do you make me be concerned for you when you don't even know what I'm feeling right now, Kim Bok Joo? BJ: Joon Hyung ah... I feel weird. No matter what, I feel like I'm in pain.

At this moment Im fighting to not feel the way she described because is so horrible and not easy to get out of that state...I just wanted to cry with this scene
These titles seriously confuse me.. "Hugs Sung-kyung while holding it up" ... I understand that they're using the actors' names, but what is he holding up?
