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.
