One of the best!

I've watched many KBLs and for me this is one of the best, there is something about the story and casting that makes it really good. After watching I got curious with the webtoon that I ended up reading it, because I want more. I also love the main CP but I don't know, I fell so much in love with Jooha x Doyoon, their chemistry is over roof that a lot is wishing for a Spin-off or season 2. The OSTs are also great, this is just wonderful 🤧

The music was so good!

I loooooved the ost so much! The way that they matched the music to the vibe of the show is so good.

I also love the story and the acting. The two side character felt a bit awkward in my opinion. But the chemistry of the main couple is really good.
the pacing of the story was good and I loved the ending.

It was GOOD until it became confusing

"Jazz For Two" boasts a standout cast, featuring talented rookie actors who inject freshness into the series. However, the limited run time of only 8 episodes feels insufficient to fully explore the depth of the storyline, resulting in a rushed narrative that struggles to allow viewers ample time to absorb crucial story details.

Backstories lack depth, with some introduced too late in the series to have a significant impact. The development of the main couple's relationship feels abrupt, lacking sufficient buildup, while the supporting couple's storyline is underutilized and would benefit from more screen time or a separate project to fully explore their dynamics.

Conflict resolutions are often too quick, leaving little room for tension or emotional payoff, such as a crucial moment where Tae Yi misinterprets Se Heon's intentions.

The series could also benefit from more exploration of the relationship between classical music and jazz and further delving into the characters' motivations.

Nonetheless, the friendship between Tae Yi and Do Yoon shines, portraying a ride-or-die dynamic that adds depth, while Do Yoon's unwavering support for Se Heon highlights the strength of their bond.

Cameo appearances from "A Shoulder to Cry On" provide enjoyable fan service and a hint of nostalgia. Regarding the "proper kiss" issue in the early episodes, it's likely a creative direction from the production team rather than a reflection of the actors' abilities. The exceptional OSTs add a magical touch to the series.

Despite its shortcomings, 'Jazz For Two' remains entertaining, with the potential for a Do Yoon x Joo Ha spin-off, which would be eagerly welcomed.

decent

decent tbh, not bad. I liked it a lot but it’s not the best thing I’ve EVER watched. I like how they portrayed inner conflict and deep rooted homophobia but I don’t like the fact that although the side couple were problematic, they were more interesting than the main. I found myself more curious about them than the main couple, even though their dynamic is one that I wouldn’t support. also I kind of think that the chemistry for the main couple wasn’t very good and I would have liked to see more romantic scenes of them, but overall, they were good

One of the bl that has left a deep impression on me

One of the best korean bl that i have ever watched! We dont usually see a bl that involves music with it but this is definitely a masterpiece! The pacing isnt rushed and each characters backstories is explained very well! The plot is very interesting and im sure everyone will relate to it! The acting is superb as always! I also love the chaotic but sweet interaction of each characters! The soundtrack and ost's that was used are so beautiful! I really loved watching bl's where the main leads or characters showcase their talents! Kudos to the whole production of this series for giving us a high quality bl! It is truly a gem that is definitely worth to watch! ❣️

Not meant for everyone

The storyline is great. They show us the reality.
I didn't like certain parts, so i wouldn't talk about them.
I liked how naive and cute se heon was. I wish people like him are protected.
The thing that got on my nerves is whatever Song juha did. Nobody other than [his admirer] gonna like him after all that.

Ya like Jazz (for two)? Yes I made a Bee Movie joke. What of it?

Listen idk what kind of crack they put into this show that made me want to binge it entirely in one afternoon but I absolutely loved every second of it and idk why the people here seem to be so naggy about it. It was fun, heartbreaking and interesting and the soundtrack. God. THE SOUNDTRACK. I wanna rotate this soundtrack in my brain like in a microwave it was so beautiful. Basically don't listen to the negative comments they're wrong and I think this was a fine show.

Or maybe I have low standards. Oh well!

Jazz For FOUR , A Therapy !!

first of all I was so excited about this drama since it was on of my fav manhwa's adaption . the concept , actors , storyline , production everything is on the level , acting was pretty good ( Although it was debut project of some of the actors ) and the OST '' !! chief kiss !! ASTCO Couples Cameo was unexpected n I love it , ik they will change some of parts from the original manhwa, still hoping that they don't change too much coz the manhwa was awesome ( 10/10 ) , one thing that I don't understand ik it's drama but still they're students why do they have to wear so much heavy makeup , for example Yoon se heon' lipstick ( was too deep ) n for seo Do Yoon ( dyed hair, bracelets , earrings blah blah) I mean it's school not fashion show babe !!

An Engaging Storytelling with Stellar Casting

Sight, scent, taste, touch, and sound—five senses that imprint themselves in our memories and hearts. And while all of them have an impact, sound is a stark reminder of how swiftly something can fade while leaving an indelible mark.

Nowhere is this more evident than in music. Music speaks to the soul when words falter, conveying emotions that defy easy expression. Its melodic language channels joy, love, anger, fear, and pain, forging connections that transcend barriers.

Really liked this series but…..

It didn’t go for long enough.
Some arguments never got a proper apology that was need they were just brushed past like it was nothing.
And that kind of bugged me
But
Overall I would watch it again and again.
The actors were all brilliant
The music was great
The visuals were 🔥
But the story had little bit missing from it that could have been better explained with a longer run time and more episodes
We definitely need a longer season 2 so we can see what happens with both couples….

Please give us a second season 🙏🏻 🙏🏻

its cute

its a cute short series. it shows people trying to learn to accept themselves how they are and learning to let people in and love. itnisnt my usual watch but i recommend it. the actors dod a good job and I loved the music in the show. the second couple caught my attention more than the main..

i wish they could have made it longer as the ending did seem rushed but the ending is a good one.

if you like cute dramas i recommend it. even if you like heavier dramas like me i recommend it

Needs more character development.

Seheon is the youngest son of a Music Professor and his older Brother is gifted when it comes to music. His Father is prejudiced about music. He feels that only Classical Music is worth playing. Seheon plate the Piano and he loves Jazz Music. His Father has him practicing playing Classical almost every waking hour. With the exception of School Work, eating and sleep. He transfers to a special High School, in his Sophomore year, after being home schooled. There he eventually meets Seyi, who also loves Jazz. Things between the two of them don't start off well. Seyi tells Seheon that if he ever finds Seheon playing the Piano in that room again he will kill him.
A little while later we meet Juha. He is 1-2 years ahead of Seheon and Seyi in School. He has an axe to grind with Seyi. After noticing Seyi seems to care about Seheon he decides he will get "friendly" with Seheon to get even with Seyi. As time goes on Seyi stops being antagonistic towards Seheon. Seheon starts to develop feelings for Seyi due to his kindness. One day after Seyi takes care of a cut on Seheon's hand, Seheon leans over and kisses Seyi. Seyi wipes off his mouth and walks out. After sometime and introspection Seyi comes to realize he does like Seheon.
Personally, while I feel this a good Drama and definitely worth watching, I feel it was too short and they need to spend some more time on character development. After Seheon returns home after running away from home, his Father is furious with him and starts a fight. You can see that his Father does love him and was worried about him but can't express it properly. I would like to have seen what made him that way. Seheon's older cares about him and tries to always act as a go between with Dad and Seheon. I would also like to have seen why his Father lets him practice Jazz and enter the Festival. I would also liked to it if they showed a little of Juha 's background and why originally a bully. I feel that they should have added about 2 more episodes. To flesh out the characters. It felt a little rushed towards the end. It is worth rewatching and hopefully they will make a season 2 to give us a little more backstory for the characters and maybe give us more time with the 2nd Couple, Doyoon and Juha.
