After some time, though, I became more familiar with the Asian drama concept, so I tried to re-watch a lot of shows I disliked before. This was one of those. But after knowing a lot more about it, it was suddenly SO funny and cute! The acting was so good, I couldn't believe it! It was actually surprising at some points.
The story was amazing! The only reason I didn't give it a full score, is because of the unnecessary scenes that makes you want to keep watching it as if it never happened.
The cast really did their job, and each actor fit their character so perfectly it was scary! I especially like the way they use facial expressions and gestures. But I can't really give a full score here, either, because I do want to replace some of them, for some reason.
Music is exactly what you'd expect from such a cast. But I love the fact that they're sung by the cast, and how it personalizes everything very deeply. And the music really carry out the emotions needed.
I don't think I would re-watch this in the nearest future. Not because it was bad, but because I wouldn't be able to forget the whole story that quickly. Rather than the low re-watch value score being something negative, think of it as positive.
Overall: This is definitely one of the best dramas I've ever seen. When I'm an adult with kids, I'm going to keep the whole show on a DVD or anything, and when the kids are old enough, I'll make them watch this. Because it really does carry a very important moral that is hard to teach. I loved it very much.

What to say... I really loved the story in this. A lot of people have said that it's a lot like You're Beautiful, but I really don't think so. Sure, it has music and a girl dressing up as a guy. But this show focuses more on music and character development than You're Beautiful did, which is mostly a love story. I can't post spoilers, so I won't point to examples where these are different.
I really love the cast as well, they really fit their roles and utilize the character in the best way. Their expressions and voices fit the portrayed emotion perfectly.
The music is amazing. The songs stick to your brain and moves you to the point of almost crying when used in the right scene. They're catchy and/or beautiful, so I have no complaints.
One day, I would most likely love to rewatch this if I have the possibility. It has it all: Comedy, bitter romance, romance and that don't give up your dreams feeling.
The only reason why I haven't given it a 10 the whole way through is because the story has some small, pointless scenes that it could do without, and I don't think I've ever given a show a 10 on rewatch value. I feel like that would mean I definitely would, and that really isn't the case.
But it's a great show, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone. So just give it a try, I promise you won't regret it. :)
