Potential. (but failed) This drama had SO much potential. I remember looking forward to this drama so much because I was a huge fan of Dream High. I watched the first one like three times and I just loved it so much. But Dream High 2? It disappointed me. I watched Dream High 2 putting all flaws aside because of my bias towards Dream High up until probably episode 8 or 9. The story was fine prior to those episodes because the script was SUDDENLY 'revised' and changed the love lines and changed the emphasis on certain characters. The casting of Jinwoon was great and he was supposedly the leading man, but heck who knows what the writer pd was thinking and changed it to JB. He can sing, he can dance, but acting is just something he cannot do. His facial expressions look awkward and the same all the time and I can't stand it. With Kang Sora, she annoyed the hell out of me and I honestly think JB and Kang Sora have no chemistry. JB and Jiyeon matched so much better. Only if the writer didn't change up the script halfway I would have enjoyed it so much more. Out of the main characters(Haesung, JB, Yujin, Rian) I liked Rian and Yujin's acting the most. I loved Jiyeon and Jr. in here though, they knew what they were doing and despite Jr. being a rookie, he did well and was natural. Jiyeon was just so cool and she was able to portray Rian's more complex character. Haesung was so annoying it got to the point where I laughed every time she cried because she made all these sea lion noises. The story, again, had so much potential. this could have been a GREAT drama only if the writer stuck to the original plan, and not to the request of the viewers. What good can the drama be when you scrap everything halfway and start a new story. It's stupid. It disappointed me so much I didn't even watch the last episode because I was wondering why I was even still watching it. Overall, the only parts I enjoyed in this drama are the music, and Rian(Jiyeon) because she is just so cool and Haesung annoys me and she looks like a creepy pedonoona with JB. I really like Jr. too. JYP, you ruined JB's image for me and when they debuted I still feel awkward when I see JB in his mv.
