This isn't my usual type of drama, and I don't think I would have even watched it had I not been given a free month's trial of Netflix! But I'm glad I did! Story: I'm not usually keen on music themed dramas - but I guess I was feeling spontaneous! At times, for me, the story was boring. I feel like it was very repetitive and never really surprised me, or got me in the feels! I liked the idea of highlighting how being good at something doesn't mean you're passionate about it, but unfortunately as far as the story goes, it was very generic. The characters themselves were honestly quite likeable. The main characters really did begin to get on my nerves, but I found most of the other characters to be likeable in their own way. Acting: I think for a majority of the actors, this was the first drama I've seen them in! I think the acting was brilliant, I felt as though they portrayed their characters well. As I mentioned before, the main character's did get on my nerves a little, but I feel as though that was their character design, and not the actors' fault. I look forward to seeing them all in different roles when I watch more of their dramas! Music: In terms of my personal taste, I didn't enjoy the music that much, however in terms of appropriateness, the music fit well for the drama themes and genre. Rewatch Value: I honestly can't see myself rewatching this drama. It was enjoyable for the most part, however it lacks plot twists and a unique story line. I don't see the point of rewatching it when I can find other dramas with a similar plot. Despite it being a very generic story, I did find it enjoyable and did finish all the episodes! If you like music, or like the specific actors, I'd say give the first few episodes a go, and if you like them, then you like them, and if you don't well... you don't!
