Story I actually fell in love with the story, i loved it so much, i love the flashbacks the love triangles. it’s a really simple and enjoyable drama to watch. when it got to the last 3-4 episodes, the drama kinda lost its momentum, it felt really rushed and that ending was just¿ plain weird and upsetting. don’t get your hopes up too much during the drama, nothing is what you think it is.
Acting
omg they finally found people who can actually play the piano? this made the story more engaging because it felt so real ahh
Music
Great choice
Rewatch
Honestly i’m really upset with the ending, probably only come back for the cute scenes

Okay I'll be honest. And list down the key points... 1)I love love loooove Fang Yilun with every fiber of my being that the entire time in this series I kept stressing to my mom how Alen looks gaunt and should be the one eating those steamed buns and in the buffet scene...
But of course that's just me being a willful Fang Yilun Fang
(and this is irrelevant to the series review, but I'm just saying... *shrugs*)
2) I like how this show subtly gave a statement that girls can be gluttons too and that's okay. That girls can be boyish or ravenous, crass and shameless... and they can still be a leading lady in their own love stories.
That the girls are not the "stereotype" leading ladies with barbie looks and stick figures, going on and on and on about dieting and losing wait because their imaginary reflections say they've gotten a few pounds in their skeletal figures...
3) I also liked how they emphasized on a lot of social problems that has become a social norm when it shouldn't be. Like the toxic fan culture, irresponsible gossip broadcasting etc., These are things that need to be represented, because it's real and it's a problem.
4) However, there are some part of the plot that will make you feel conflicted and bothered. Like the ending, for example. It's as if the ending was rushed. Yi Ran suddenly reveals what Liu Nian did in the past. Then Chumo drives out. To where? Then Liu Nian was shown to be going out as well with a plane ticket(so assuming he went to the airport to fly to the out the country... Presumably to where Chumo is)and that was it. As if it explains the ending.
But there was no character closure. Did he continue music? Or did he proceed in medicine? Was he in Mainland this whole time and never went back to America with his family?
There are a lot of sub plots and character plots that were left hanging. And yet, the last half of the series went out of their way and placed a lot of slow motions to emphasize both the romantic aesthetic and the dramatic scenes. (=... =) There was so much dead air and dull scenes that you'll find yourself fast forwarding and skipping a lot... It didn't feel progressive no matter how good the plot story was and the character roles was. (@@,)
As much as entertaining it was and how beautiful the music plot was, the production felt subparto the actor's actual abilities.

Skip it if you can
First, story boringThere no focus on the storyline, for example the story focus on too many thing like love, school, teacher, students , friends, family, music and other more. What the main focus? Just choose one or two so we can understand easy.!!! There no dark side story too, no bad guy too!!! What the challenge? Love triangle?!!! What your focus? So bad…
Second, focus on to many characters story, where the main lead story? You focus on support role for what?!!
The main lead screen time is short like just let he walk and pass what you want to show? Show what?!!
Third, skipping this drama if you fan of The Love By Hypnotic. There no kiss in here. You miss the big part my friend! Bad drama
