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.
