Amazing cast with no plot.

I tried so hard to love this drama. I really did, I love a good bit of classical music and I enjoyed those segments, and for what the cast had to deal with they did an amazing job. A drama without a plot, or maybe a very unknown one is very hard to do.

I could not find a plot is this whole drama. I did not understand where it was going, all it seemed it was about was 2 groups of friends falling out with each other due to some silly reason, be it randomly falling in love with someone or sometimes for no reason what so ever. As the episodes dragged on it became harder and harder to watch, It seemed like it was just set in a music school rather than actually about the music or progression at all. This really frustrated me as I was hoping for some kind of ups and downs of an aspiring musician kind of plot, and instead got something I would expect from secondary school children, not a bunch of almost 30 year olds.

For what the cast was given to work with, they did a very good job of portraying their characters, it is just a shame that nothing came out of their good acting and instead it all bundled into a big mess.

I cannot fault this for its music choices, they did pick good pieces when you did hear them. Not as often as I would have liked though.

Except from maybe the 1/2hr of hearing them play music, I found this drama a waste of my time. I would not recommend this to anyone unless for the music pieces.
