The story is a checklist that contains all the usual teen drama tropes. It does not excel or improve on any of the boxes but man did they go out of their way to fill them. The cast wasn't terrible but had a horrible case of miscasting. The male lead was more suitable for the cheerful friend rather than the brooding male lead. The female lead did not do terrible but will be remembered as Joy from Red Velvet rather than an actress judging from this performance. For a music drama none of the songs featured made me open a new tab to look for them. How I made it through the first time amazes and depresses me at the same time. No rewatch value. The Japanese movie adaptation is light-years above this drama... and it's not that great.
