An unfortunate victim of weak and indecisivs plotting
This is essentially a romance drama, the other more prominent parts of the story reach their conclusion midway. The past timeline is given a larger share of screen time except the last two episodes.Throughout there was only SML around the FL. This puts all plots into disarray as the viewer mistakes them to become a couple. The ML has infinitesimal screen time, popping here and there. The SML and FL are cute together, the chemistry was explosive.
And then in the ending things take turn for the worse. We have rapid fire conclusions that come out of little substance and then the romance drama annihilating fail turns its head:
The ML becomes the boyfriend because of the butterfly effect...
Yeah, you read that right, there is ZERO COURTSHIP and it is just like ZAP they are a couple!!! No kiss, no confession, nothing at all!
The ultimate conclusion is that the screenwriter was confused and did not know what to do and when to do it.
Alas! It had so much potential!

MP3 that can connect you to the past
I must say the concept of this drama is pretty good but was it well executed ? NOPEA slight disappointment because it started as suspenseful, but kinda just faded out to where it didnt really make much sense..
The female lead is an actress. She is in her 30s and is about to get replaced by another actress who is younger than her. She decides to share some gossip of that younger actress , which results in the younger actress attempted suicide. Female lead attends a high school gathering and is sent a video/ recording of what she did. She finds her old mp3 and finds out that it can connect her old high school self. She starts to suspect all of her high school friends.
She has two best friend and two guy friends ( who both like her) . One is always bickering with her Yu Ming. The other use to be a chubby kid, but now is tall and handsome.
the story focuses of her high school trying to fix up the relationships and the things in order for her future self to figure out who is blackmailing her. it flashes between her high school times and current actress time.
Too much, back and forth without much progression made it a little dull. Like there was nothing really revealing who it actually was. She just literally went down the list. I was just as confused....
There is hardly any romance up until the very end... so wouldnt reccommend for romance.. It had potential like but eventually all the excitement/suspense fizzled out...

An easy watch, would recommend!
Although "Hello, My Noisy MP3" is labeled as a comedy, romance, youth, and fantasy drama, it primarily serves as a coming-of-age story with slight hints of romance sprinkled throughout.If you're expecting a romance-heavy show, you might be disappointed. While there's some romance, the focus is more on youth, high school experiences, friendship, and other aspects of adolescence. The romance only comes into play towards the end, but by that point, I was just enjoying the show for its coming of age themes.
The main plot revolves around 30 year old star Zhao Man Er (FL), who communicates with her 11 year old self through an MP3 player. This form of communication allows Zhao Man Er to fix and alleviate regrets from her past, thereby changing her present and future. This proves particularly useful when she uses it to remove a threat to her acting career, which has been her lifelong dream.
The story is quite intriguing. While I've seen many time travel dramas, this is the first time I've seen a concept involving the use of a communication device to alter the future. I loved the cast, especially actors Chen Ye Sheng and Zhang Kai Tai. The acting by all the cast members was impressive, and the soundtrack complements the narrative well!
However, there are some confusing aspects, such as the constant switches between past and present selves, which muddle the storyline. But this doesn't affect the overall enjoyment of the drama too much. The identity of the male lead (ML) is also ambiguous, especially during the beginning of the show, as the story presents two males who are interested in the (FL) throughout high school to present. This is possibly intentionally done by the writer/director, but it definitely made me wonder who the (FL) would end up with!
Overall, "Hello, My Noisy MP3" is a delightful watch, especially for those interested in themes of youth and growing up.

An Underrated Gem, My Pleasure
❗AN UNDERRATED MASTERPIECE ❗Unexpectedly, This drama has come to become My top 1 drama of 2022. And Having the CP as No1. Of 2022 for me! Yet underrated, but it has proved to be better than Most s+ projects out there!❤️
An excellent plot, A loveable squad of cast, A fair chemistry distribution intact, Humor and Suspense collide into an amusing Youthful feel taking you from Past to future!
Wait... what's there to not love about this drama?!❤️❤️❤️
What if you were at that heavy Moment of crisis in life and you suddenly get an mp3 that allows you to talk to younger self 12 years ago? What would you do? Would you try change it all from the past and rewrite your terrible Future? Even if it meant giving up your dreams?
Well let this drama answer that nostalgic question for you through this nostalgic tale of Dreams and Youth at it's beautiful best.
I really enjoyed the character bound and how the story smoothly flows from FL Future self,an actress at verge of 30, surrounded by a heavy scandal and her past 18 year old highschool self struggling to achieve her dream of being an actress!
And I love their heartfelt interactions which proved didactic.
In an Beautiful tale of Past and future, What message would you like to give to your future or past self? Would it be a "Hello"? maybe "Did I make it?" Or maybe a "Let's fight harder"
Whatever it may be, Why don't you just sit back, relax and enjoy FL's Heartfelt tale of The me in two dimensions connected by an Mp3...
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
