Typical story yet well executed.
A group of good-looking boys struggling with their individual issues and a broke girl is forced to live with them under one roof. The entire story revolves around how the girl helps them deal with the problems while also falling in love with one of them who is the rudest of all. Yes, you have watched a lot of this sorts.This will be a short one bcs this drama doesn't need a detailed review nor it's anything productive giving scopes to talk a lot about.
"Let Me Be Your Knight" is clearly a pre-2015 Kdrama romcom script; in fact a trend that existed till 2015, somewhat. There is no lying in this regard from either sides, i. e. the makers and the audience. So the question should be whether it's worth a watch in the year 2022?
So to summarize this particular story, LUNA is one of the most successful KPOP Idol band known for their good looks and quality music. Things start going wrong when Tue leader of the band suffer from sleepwalking, to counter which the members have to live with an in-house psychiatrist. The psychiatrist is basically fake, who is forced to pretend like a doctor due to her financial situations. The story is all about the fake doc helping the 5 of them to overcome their hurdles accompanied by a developing love story alongside.
The acting department is pretty average, full of young actors and plenty of rookies. In Yoon Joo/Kang Sun Ju (Jung In Sun) isn't highly ambitious but aims to save a fortune and purchase back the house she lived in her as a child. Yoon Tae In (Lee Jun Young) is the lead vocalist and the leader of LUNA with horrible childhood experiences, that has led him to having sleeping disorders. Not gonna mention rest of the major characters but I must say the casting was fair.
Plot development is steady and moderately up to par. The story starts with addressing thw issues lying with LUNA and it's public image as well as the FL and her life. It mainly focuses on the ML's healing process with the FL's help. In constantly provides the audience with fluffy romcom elements along with emotional scenes. Idol life issues is equally emphasized by putting the individual members of thd group on the pedestal at different times. There is nothing much to talk about the progression, ngl. The ending was smooth and satisfactory.
I honestly never knew the makers of this drama and guessing from their biographies, this is their debut. Regardless, the director didn't have much to do given the storyline, expect for screen editing, organization and cinematography, which I think have been well taken care of. I wonder what was the need of 4 screenwriters for such a story, but well (haha). What I didn't like about the writing is the soddy character arcs; wasn't really expecting anything but it seemed very bland.
The set of OSTs are well composed. They aren't really memorable in comparison to the vast sea of songs but I like how it was mostly relatable to the story and it's essence. The theme song having the same title as the drama "Let Me Be Your Knight" is my most favourite. It's soulfully versed, beautifully composed and exquisitely sung. Other songs by the imaginary group LUNA are: "Love Paranoia" , "Beautiful Breakup" and "Love One Day". I liked all 4 of these. OSTs sung by non-cast are.
"Dreamin'" by Seo Eun Kwang (BTOB)
"You are my soul" by Monday Kiz
"Because it's you" by Kim Woojin
"Rainbow" by Celine
"Sunshine" by SUNNY
What I liked...
# The OSTs are the best thing about this drama. The entire album is so good I swear; this was the only thing I expected from and I'm glad it's been delivered.
# The way they have addressed and presented almost all of the major South Korean idol issues is thought provoking. Idol dating issues, absurd rumors, career insecurities, competition within a group, struggles in the showbiz, etc are the areas they've covered. Just disappointed that one of the issues wasn't solved how i wanted.
# I am happy it wasn't much focused either on 2-3 characters or on the romantic storyline. Other members of LUNA have a fair share of screentime unlike other Idol dramas.
# The slice-of-life references put forward were heart-touching and emotional.
Well, it is a decent thing in my opinion which can be used to pass time. Irrespective of a story full of cliché, this has the least drawbacks to be pointed out. It's an example of typical story but well executed category. This is entirely no-brainer and very predictable and not really something to look forward to,so I would have given less but the fact that I found the least numbers of technical flaws, encouraged me to be kinder, haha. I can't say it's a must watch but if you're craving old romcoms and looking for something new & light-hearted, then here you go.
P. S. In a final confession, I wanan mention that this is better than "Imitation" in the perspective of an Idol drama. I don't wanna compare "Idol: The Coup" bcs it too was better than Imitation. In fact, the former was about a script and the latter was about idol issues, whereas, "Let Me Be Your Knight" is a perfect balance between both.

The ending ruined the rest for me
First, they should have used the title Let Me Be Your Night, as it was referenced in the drama. Knight does not make sense in any way!As I was watching this show, I found it to be a fun watch, fluffy and light. There were quite a few amusing moments, and I didn't feel the need to fast forward through scenes (the advantage of fewer episodes). It addressed numerous issues that idols must endure, and I found that interesting as well. It was a very cute concept for a show, and if you just want an easy watch and don't expect too much you won't be disappointed.
What I liked: Jang Dong Joo as 2ML Seo Woo Yeon. He's got a lovely, deep voice and I really liked the way his character was written. Admittedly, I had some SLS going on here, especially since the ML was not a nice person. The music was catchy. The LUNA actors all did an okay job, and I liked how each of them had their own style sense. The story didn't focus on just one or two main characters. That said, there were things that missed the mark...
What I didn't like: Though I love Jung in Sun as an actress and she did an okay job here, I felt that she was entirely too old for this part. I didn't feel any chemistry between the leads in the romantic sense. They were fun to watch when they were antagonistic toward one another, but the romance fell flat. There was an absolutely terrible, cringe-worthy kiss that looked like their lips were barely in contact with one another and her eyes were open the whole time. Though I liked the fact that there were multiple story lines, I felt there were so many missed opportunities to delve deeper into the characters, especially the LUNA members. I would have liked to have seen more of their interactions with one another. The interactions they did have made me think that they didn't care much for one another. The ML character was stoic and cold throughout and I never did become truly attached to him. With the FL being the "live-in doctor", I would have loved to have seen more of her helping the other members of LUNA, not just the ML. A secondary romance took up a lot of screen time and ultimately went nowhere.
WHAT I HATED: Misunderstandings are resolved, someone saves the other, feelings are verbalized, and then one of them leaves the country for an indeterminate period of time after saying "have a good life". WHAT THE HECK!!?!?! That made me mad enough, but the ending was just horrible - short, abrupt, no physical contact (almost like they were just meeting again!), and then just OVER! The last half hour of this show made me so angry I had to drop points. All that time wasted just to be disappointed. Why is it so hard to have a decent ending in so many K-dramas!?!

Will This Drama Be Your ‘ Knight’?
SBS’ ‘ Let Me Be Your Knight’ offered viewers a predictable and cliche-ridden setup surrounding the haughty singer of LUNA ( a popular idol group ) Yoon Tae-In ( Lee Jun Young) who is diagnosed with somnambulism. In order to avoid media-attention, the CEO ( Kwak Ja Hyung) of the idol group’s contracted company employs world-renowned in-house somnologist Kang Sun Jun ( Jung In Sun). However there’s a catch; the CEO ended up employing Kang Sun Jun’s identical twin sister In Yoon Ju ( also played by Jung In Sun) instead. With her own personal motives for taking up the false identity of her estranged twin, Yoon Ju finds her nerves tested to the limit when she begins having to keep watch over the insufferable Yoon Tae-In as well as sharing a house with his fellow band mates Lee Shin ( JR), Kim Yoo-Chan ( Yoon Ji-Sung ), Woo Ga-On ( Kim Dong Hyun) and Seo Woo-Yeon ( Jang Dong-Joo).
Directed by Ahn Ji Sook and composed together by a quartet of screenwriters (Shin Seo Ha, Hae Yeon, Seo Jung Eun and Yoo So Won) as a marketed story about “ romance and healing, ‘ Let Me Be Your Knight’ is undeniably a fairly disengaging and “ fluffy” drama.
Of course, a good drama doesn’t always necessarily need to have labyrinthine plot points and often romantic escapist dramas do present versatile opportunities for dynamic screenwriting. However, where an ultimate problem did lie with ‘ Let Be Your Knight’ ‘s presented formula is that reimbursed cliches and tropes often led to predictable and generic outcomes throughout the storyline.
There was an admitted problem with the casting choice of Jung In Sun as the main female lead ; she didn’t seem to quite match the role for audiences . Respectfully the age of her character In Yoon Ju ( as well as arguably her “ twin sister”) is never truly specified throughout the series. However, with consideration to Yoon Ju’s notably more benign personality traits, mannerisms and soft-spoken tendencies at times, ‘ Let Me Be Your Knight’ often seemed to indicate that the screenwriters should’ve facilitated to two possibilities; a younger actress to play the suggested role, or changing elements of Yoon Ju’s age or mannerisms as a character to better-suit the casting choice of Jung In Sun .
Admittedly this isn’t entirely the fault of the actress. Yoon Ju presented a polar opposite to her seemingly “cold” twin; emotional, kindhearted and notably benign at times but rarely did she seem to have a quintessential requirement for her character’s seeming “ difficult past and problems”; flaws .
This isn’t to say that Yoon Ju didn’t have potential to have intriguing character exploration moments ( including her complicated relationship with her sister as well as the loss of her parents) nor did she show affection to others throughout the series. However considering the fact that Yoon Ju has had to take up the false identity of her sister; a qualified professional in sleep diagnosis and aside from a comical “ initial struggle” early on, it seemed odd that neither the band mates or CEO Moon didn’t begin to grow slightly suspicious by her actions or mannerisms early on. As a consequence, the female lead often suffered from a predestined fate as a “ carte blanche Mary Sue”; a plot device in order to keep the storyline intriguing,but missing out on truly engaging with the audience as a fleshed-out and definitive female lead.
Costarring alongside Jung In Sun is Lee Jun Young. Jun Young is undeniably a good actor and has proven his talents in versatile roles over recent years. However there seems to be a recent and notable pattern with In Sun being cast in the “ stoic” male lead role with his onscreen persona Tae-In being no exception.
Tae-In is a character who is notably hard to warm up to during the initial events of the storyline ; he’s brusque, aloof and aside from gaining the adoration of the “maknae” of the group Woo Ga-On ( Kim Dong Hyun), has struggled to get along with the rest of the band. Admittedly Tae-In’s growth is gradual through his initial self-depreciation after the flop of the band’s recent album ( which he mainly wrote) as well as gradually falling for the female lead. However similar to Yoon Ju’s missed-out opportunities to be explored as a well-rounded character, Tae-In’s more evident character drives such as the traumatic link of his somnambulism, gradually developing a closer-bond with his teammates and even his exact reasons for attraction for the female lead, were rarely covered in order to shoehorn him into particular scenarios and plot events.
The onscreen chemistry between Lee Jun Young and Jung In Sun whilst decent enough, did seem to lack a certain dynamic charm for audiences. Tae-In and Yoon Ju’s gradual attraction from one another to “ contempt to love” rarely flowed coherently due to the characters often being enforced into romantic cliches and scenarios, rather than gradually developed.
In addition to this, there’s the issue also with consideration to the indecisive writing decision of the “love triangle” between Tae-In, Yoon Ju and fellow band member Seo Woo Yeon (Jang Dong Joo). Whilst the “love triangle” trope was used in the series as an attempt to “ keep chemistry alive”, there was rarely time to truly see this dynamic with more finesse. Woo Yeon was often limited merely to his archetype as the “ second male lead”; the dreamer who is pointlessly chasing the female lead without clear reasons or even definitive character traits along the way.
The side characters of the series admittedly were often used in a seeming attempt to fill-out screen time through various subplots. It’s wrong to entirely state that these subplots weren’t interesting per say; Yoo Chan’s complicated relationship with his mother, Shin’s clandestine relationship with radio presenter Ji-yeon (Ha Young) and Ga-On’s traumatic experiences as a trainee did seem to put forward some intriguing side storylines throughout the series. On the other hand whilst a lot of the side characters were arguably more fleshed-out than the main leads, the primal focus on the main storyline rarely gave opportunities to delve deeper into the subplots. Instead these storylines were often slightly rushed, brushed over or given anticlimactic resolutions by the ending of the series.
‘ Let Me Be Your Knight’ was arguably self-conscious from outset about not overcommitting itself to a complicated plot in twelve episodes. Nevertheless whilst the basic formula surrounding the main leads’ romance and issues is compacted, the series did often seem to struggle with truly expediting plot. Instead the pacing of the series could often be tedious in parts with niche plot setups and enforced dialogue becoming apparent. Perhaps if the series had given more opportunities to exploring characters, or even a definitive plot goal, then ‘ Let Me Be Your Knight’ could’ve had a less anticlimactic and impactful ending.
The cinematography of ‘ Let Me Be Your Knight’ was admittedly decent enough under the directing reigns of Ahn Ji Sook. Most scenes throughout the series were filmed throughout a usage of slick, long distance and closeup shots and gave a professional and glossy edge to filmed sequences and key moments. However despite the aesthetic edge of filming, the innovation of presenting the arts in intuitive ways , reflecting the emotional scope of its characters through palettes or tones ( aside from niche pathetic fallacy in certain scenes) , or even vivid mise-en-scène moments were greatly absent from the series.
The OST of the series was admittedly a mixed-bag. For a series which mainly focused upon its central characters being in the music business and industry, it seemed odd that certain song tracks in the series were slightly insipid at times . This isn’t to say that these songs were bad per say. In fact there were definitely several tracks which helped to definitively reflect the mindset of the characters and will likely grow on some. On the other hand, it seemed surprising that the OST didn’t always deliver a memorable punch for the audience either.
‘ Let Me Be Your Knight’ is a fairly lighthearted and niche romantic melodrama . Whilst the acting performances are decent enough and the side storylines did offer intrigue for viewers, the drama could often feel unable to escape its own set-limitations. In particular certain casting choices, predictable screenwriting tropes and character archetypes alongside poor pacing in parts, presented ‘ Let Me Be Your Knight’ as an above-average drama; watchable and enjoyable during a binge-watch, but lacking in more definitive traits also.

Sweet, fun and more entertaining than good, leaving me wanting more!
This was so much fun, and just perfect for all of those who love dramas about music, idols, romance, mixed identities... ok the regular fluffy drama cliches that may not be a what I would say high quality drama but is HIGHLY entertaining... then this will probably live up to your expectations,The pacing is good, the characters are just the sweetest, funnest ever... the intrigues are just enough to keep you wanting more and the issues that the drama touches are important but to not take the focus off the main story...
I really loved the music, the dynamics between the very different characters as well as the character development. TI can not stress enough how cute the characters in this drama are! though slightly odd even the pet is fluffy and fun, as well as there for a reason! There are great displays of friendship, an a typical controlling parent, an evil CEO...
I just love the female leads playfulness, the second male leads kindness (too kind, to be kind), the male leads broken soul...
I understand that this probably is not for everybody and you will probably either get bored and find it cliche or completely fall for it like I did,
But yes this is just my type of drama, I wish I could have a couple of more episodes and am willing to admit to it´s flaws and therefor took off 0.5 points... but I love it, I love, it, I love it

LUNA aka Bros before Woes
To some this might be a generic drama, to others perhaps a bit rushed and flawed in concept. However... 'Let Me Be Your Knight' is much more than your typical drama if you take a moment to see between the lines.It may not be perceptible on the first time watching, but the hints are there in every single episode.
This is what we can call a "cycle of healing" kind of drama.
Where the true essence resides in the characters as a group.
And into their own personal problems and self-healing that may affect those around them.
The thing is they did it with a K-pop concept and with a band in the center grounds along with the pros and cons.
LUNA is the core of the whole show. Their personal journey as they all struggle with personal feelings and problems while trying not to fall apart. The five of them are the main characters here, and the FL joins the journey with her "baggage" too.
Hilarious how she being a chaotic mess, can be the solution to Tae In's problems and become his muse in times of need. Sometimes, we find the simplest solution within the problem. He only needed to find another model to get inspired, to set different goals and find where his own strength relies on. Not only in Yoon Joo but also realize how isolated he made himself to be when it came down to his band member's. The bigger the house, the wider the distance. It was a good indirect example of how in a bigger dorm the members grew a part within the years ever since their debut. It's a reality portrayed here.
This drama is not solely meant to be a romantic comedy of sorts, although it's implied in the tags.
Or a drama about a thriving band in the music field trying to cope down with their unstable leader at first.
It's about the growth and maturity they face by facing themselves and their own ordeals to finally find the right path.
Sometimes, going back to our roots is the best outtake we can find. 'Less is more' as people tend to say.
It takes 12 episodes here to realize that. It takes a few scandals, several setbacks, blatant lies and some hidden truths.
Overall, within the characters we find a few valuable lessons to behold upon if we set our eyes into the big picture here.
The plot doesn't always have to be straight to the point, sometimes the hints are insidious but are there.
We just have to see beyond and unveil the theories or be able to gather the perception of what it's revealed.
Tae-In's sleepwalking for example is not only about the great amount of stress he has to achieve perfection, but also the sheer pressure he has faced ever since his childhood, only to appease to his classical music genius of a father who tried to mold his son based on his personal taste which resulted into a trauma that led to how the drama starts in the first place. Cliché, right?
Nothing too out of the ordinary. This drama isn't about plot twists or epic cliffhangers. It's all out in the open here. It's the typical clichés packed into a somewhat cool concept.
Which now leads us to the band - LUNA - set into the world of K-pop industry, this drama present us the view of idols, (more precisely a band instead of a group, which is awesome given the numerous K-pop group dramas lately, one with a band playing musical instruments is a breath of fresh air), the concerts and vibes of the past we miss, all the packed schedules, comebacks, albums, lightsticks, fans, venues, talk-shows or radios and even live streams. We see it all, not forgetting to add in fans, discussing their bias and also the troublesome sasaengs (dangerous stalker "fans").
They manage to create the perfect band with mostly idols from quite a few famous K-pop groups:
Lee Jun Young from U-KISS as Yoon Tae In
JR from NU'EST as Lee Shin
Yoon Ji Sung former WannaOne as Kim Yoo Chan
Kim Dong Hyun from AB6IX as Woo Ga On
And although Jang Dong Joo as Seo Woo Yeon is mostly an actor he could be a rising idol too.
Jung In Sun did a good job here playing twin sister roles.
I hope that I am not the only one wanting that LUNA would be real enough to release something in RL too.
The songs are catchy, although the lyrics seem silly some have subliminal messages within the absurd linked words.
We find ourselves singing along, or even tapping our feet to it. Infatuated with the way all 5 members sing and play.
By each and every episode, we keep rooting for LUNA to thrive and overcome their endless troubles.
I wanted more of LUNA songs, shows, whatever, but they focused more on their problems rather than the music. And although it's frustrating and seems to drag until the final episode at one point with the ML and FL "dramarama", it's by the final episode that we realize why it was so. Because to solve things they needed to be reminded of the past and the start so they could rise up once again. The drama also tackles down several known problems from love scandals, bullying accusations, failures, secret relationships, demanding and greedy parents, scams, controlling CEOs, and many more. Despite the setting and the way they did it, we can't deny these happen on a daily basis in RL too. It's a slice of life packed in 12 episodes, bound to be rushed.
But it's in the small details that we're able to find the creativity placed into the scenes.
Like their title track and comeback song being called 'Beautiful Breakup' to the lyrics and meaning, that leads us to one of the scenes in the final episodes where the album is plain sight. It's a realization and a fear, but also a wakeup call to them all.
Overall. I actually enjoyed the acting, the cinematography and music here.
'Beautiful Breakup', 'Love Paranoia' and 'Let Me Be Your Knight' become a fan favorite of mine.
The reason for such a high score is by all that and because of the whole spectrum of problems portrayed.
Not every drama is in fact flawed or perfect, some even fall down in between, while other's are a few rare gems.
This one is saved by the general concept.
Although we want more, and a few answers, if we think beside the box we get there.
It's not a bad drama per se, for judgmental and critical people it is likely to have its numerous flaws.
Still, if you really like bands as much as K-pop groups this is not a bad drama to go to.
Just focus on the five elements of the band and their own development. Believe me, it's the best part.

Sweet fluff with very little substance
This is a cute show; perfect if you're only looking for something short and sweet to pass the time. If you're looking for a masterpiece however, this is not it.I found very little credibility in the story itself. The idea that someone could just pretend to be a doctor and no one would catch on is a little too ludicrous for me to accept. But if you shut off your brain for the duration of the drama, it isn't that bad. It has plenty of sweet moments and some are even a little funny. The interactions between the members of LUNA and the main character are fun to watch.
The acting isn't the best I've ever seen, but it also isn't the worst. They did the best they could with the script they were given. As I stated above, if you have some time to kill and are in the mood for a silly rom-com, this could very well float your boat. But if you're looking for a drama that is objectively good, then this is not it.

Story about the band and the music are great - the romance is "incomplete"
8/10 is my rating. This is a 2021 South Korean romantic drama with 12, 70 minute episodes. It is alternatively known as "I will Be Your Knight."While trying to revive his band and get them topping the chart again, the stress and pressure triggers the lead singer, and genius song writer/composer of the band, Yoo Tae-In (Lee Jun-young) to have sleepwalking episodes that he had not experienced since childhood. Idol bands have to be very careful to avoid scandal and Tae-In's sleepwalking episodes threatens to create episodes that could be scandalous for the struggling band. The band's manager/CEO enlists the help of a special doctor to "cure" and monitor Tae-In's condition as a secret live in physician. Due to a mix up, it is not the world famous sleep doctor who "treats" Tae-In but her struggling twin sister, In Yoon-joo (Jung In-sun). Fate may have known what it was doin gthough as Yoon-joo seems to be just what the band needed to pull together as a cohesive unit and to heal the key member of the group. It is lonely at the top, but can these idols find love without losing all they have strived for?
I like this trope a lot. It shows that being an "idol" or just an artist in general can be a very lonely life. Famous people are still people and have the same wants and needs as others but, due to their need to avoid "scandals", it can be very lonely at the top. I really liked each of the characters in this series as they had all of the issues and problems you would imagine with a band trying to maintain their relevance. The growing pains they had and the fact that she became the thing that knit them all together was interesting to see develop. Spoiler alert* I would have rated this much higher if I didn't find the ending as frustrating as I did. It seemed that he liked her a lot more than she did him and she never fully came out and confessed her feelings for him. She was cruel to him, in a way, when it was more her insecurities than any thoughts or feelings she had. I also did not like how we followed 2nd couple for so much of the series only to have them break up never to get back together. In that case too it did not seem she loved him enough to fight for their relationship. To me the plot felt a bit "woke" like they were trying to show the women did not need the men or that they were able to make the more mature decision to preserve the career over the relationship. I am somewhat of a hopeless romantic in that I think love is rare enough, and fulfilling enough that it is worth giving up other things for. I think the only way things will ever change for famous people is if they start to draw the line very firmly between their artistic life and their private life. I think they are moving in that direction, more and more, and some are more succssful at it than others. In the end, they meet up at the house she hoped to buy, he apparently bought it and got her sister in on having her go there. But, it wasn't clear whether or not that meant they were getting together or not. I know some writers like to leave it like that, like you decide whether or not they end up together, but I don't watch shows to have to "write" the ending myself. I like neatly wrapped up and clear in terms of the relationships. This was good, the music was amazing, their chemistry was solid, but it was disappointing at the end. Still I would recommend it for the overall story, the music, and the actors.

Honestly better than I expected(?)
I started watching this because of Jun. Honestly I didn't really look forward to it, I started watching because I saw that Jun is a band member in the drama, which made me interested because I'm a sucker for bands. I was a bit worried that I would stop in the middle like I did with Imitation (hell, I didn't even get into the middle, I stopped at 2 because his character was annoying). And I almost did it with this drama too. I almost didn't continue it because again, his character is annoying. Like, I know his character is going through a lot. But... his character is so tiring. But you know, there are some soft moments, not gonna lie. But a lot, maybe even too many times he's pretty annoying. But his annoying, "perfectionist" self led to the development at THE VERY END. I liked his ending. It felt really nice to see Taein develop, going back to his roots with his friends to make the music that they like and have an amazing time on stage.Throughout the drama there were quite a lot of complications when they just wanna perform. Taein fainting on the concert, heavy rain that the whole event just stopped. Finally got to perform when they had a home concert, or at rehearsals (and even for a few of them they couldnt do properly because of the conflicts) At the home concert though they were enjoying it and all, Taein still had his heart closed when they had the talk session. Though at the end they didn't exactly have a talk session at their little gig, it was so much nicer to see, and Taein already opened his heart. They all seemed to really, fully enjoy it by then.
But other than that? Well, if I can be completely honest, I never exactly liked characters disguising/faking themselves in genres that aren't like, action, mystery, thriller, etc. because it's pretty frustrating to watch the FL walking on eggshells, sometimes having an oopsie that would've got her caught. I kept wondering when, where, how she would reveal her true identity. But in this case, of course Taein had to find out the hard way, exactly right before she was going to tell him, he found out by himself. And as frustrating as it is, it really went as I expected. Taein who had already softened up by at least 75% lost his temper and became cold once again. But you know what, I'd have to say, I didn't expect the sudden sasaeng plot though. I thought the employee would be like, a spy from the rival company trying to find dirt on the company to bring them down or something. That was kinda... wild. And terrifying I should say.
I feel like I already ranted about the music at the start, but for real, the music is the best part about this drama. I always really like band music, I love all the songs they had for Luna. (Haven't listened to the other songs in the OST album that were sung by other artists, and I probably should listen to them.)

Sweet Fluttering Drama that really fills me up like a blanket.
To be honest, I’ve been looking for dramas to watch these few months and a lot of the korean dramas do not attract me at all. But I coincidentally came across this while watching a YouTube video and I do not regret watching it. I finished it in 1 day.The script for this drama is something like back in the days, maybe about 2015-2018 era. It was like a common drama produced back then, but not so now in 2022.
Acting was kind of average, with some unnatural acting somewhere but really, I think this kinda fits the drama theme then - Idols.
Plot development could be done better if there was more time/episodes.
I honestly never imagine myself to be hooked/ continue watching this drama even when I started it mainly because I’ve not really heard of them acting except for a few of them on Youtube.
OST was a bomb!! I really really love their songs and was sad that the drama ended because that means that I no longer get to see them perform as a group anymore.

Un drama que disfrutarás, si te gusta el kpop.
Mi principal razón para ver este drama era Jun (el protagonista), ya que antes lo vi en Imitation y la premisa parecía la misma (idols), así que decidí verlo. La verdad es que el primer capitulo fue bastante aburrido y, a pesar de que yo no esperaba una gran historia, me hizo bajar más las expectativas. Esperé hasta que habían ya unos 5 capítulos (porque es una tortura esperar cada semana por un capitulo) y entonces fue la sorpresa. La historia remonta en el segundo capitulo y al menos a mí me hizo querer ver todos los capítulos en una tarde y luego desear que pasará rápido la semana para ver el siguiente jajaja.Algo que destaco bastante es el hecho de que no solo se centra en la historia romántica de los protagonistas, también nos muestran un poco del día a día de la banda LUNA y la historia de cada uno de sus miembros. Fue agradable ver cada una de sus peleas, verlos enojarse, gritarse y hasta llegar a los golpes, pero a pesar de eso apoyarse y seguir trabajando juntos en su mismo objetivo. De verdad fueron el mejor squad y los extrañaré :') Además de eso, sus OST's son una JOYA, no dejo de escucharlas <3
En la parte del romance entre los protagonistas, tengo que advertirles que hay que hacer caso omiso de los clichés y en ocasiones actitudes cuestionables del ML que son muy al estilo de la old school. La verdad para mí fueron bastantes adorables y me hacían emocionar, especialmente durante la primera mitad del drama, pero entiendo que haya quienes les resulte toxico.
En conclusión, recomiendo este drama si están buscando algo ligero de ver, para pasar el rato y sin tener que pensar mucho o tomarse en serio las cosas. También si eres fan del kpop y staneas algún grupo, probablemente sentirás una conexión con la banda de esta historia.

Plot banal mais interprété avec brio
Un très joli drama basé sur 2 points :- le mode de vie des idols (assez bien décrit apparemment, et pas seulement le côté glamour)
- une romance très cute où la FL chaleureuse réchauffe peu à peu le coeur du cold ML.
Les personnages sont très attachants et interprétés par d'excellents acteurs. La performance du CL est particulièrement bonne. Je suis devenue une fan de Jun !
Les OST sont TOP ! (ce qui est mieux pour un drama sur la musique :). Vous allez vous aussi devenir des "Moonlights"... vu le background des membres de LUNA, ils savent de quoi ils parlent..;

I wouldn't say this is a romance story
So I decided to watch this because I'm a kpop fan and I was willing to watch it since they released the last episode. Now I expected more of it, but it's not like I hated so here goes my opinion divided in parts.Story
It starts really well and it's so interesting, but as we advance in episodes, it starts getting a little bit boring. However, I was quite satisfied with the ending, even if it didn't get the romantic one I expected. I like how the members of the group are really different from each other. However, they didn't say anything, and when I say anything is anything, about Woo Yeon, and he's one of my favorite characters. Gotta say I loved Yoo Chan, such a lively character with a deep story.
If you are looking for a romantic drama, this isn't it, even if it looks like it. I think it needs to be said, because I missed more romantic scenes and to be deeper in that sense, but it's more centered in the stories of the members (apart from Woo Yeon, because again, and I'm really angry, he doesn't have one) and the relation between them.
Acting / Cast
They did act ok, but in some times I felt like it was a little bit exaggerated. The cast was brilliant, I loved all of them and how they represented their characters.
Music
Please help me stop listening to Beautiful Breakup because I think I have a problem. I have been watching this kdrama for more or less two weeks and I can't stop listening to it, when it appears in one of the first episodes, or in the first one, I can't remember exactly. Anyhow, the music is amazingly good, all of the songs, ALL OF THEM are on my playlist already.
So overall it was enjoyable, but as there was almost no romance it was meh. I mean, if the drama didn't have any romance to start with, it would have been a lot better, because the evolution and relationship between the members made it really good, and the ending was so good too.
Note: I love the CEO, everyone needs a CEO like him in their lives
