Soundtrack #1

SOUNDTRACK NO 1 is a sweet story about friendship & romance. It's a simple idea, but it's carried out with panache & style. This is a short but effective Kdrama that makes the most of its limited screen time, leaving you wanting more at every turn. SOUNDTRACK NO 1 reunites two best friends who have been friends since high school.

The setup is extremely straightforward, with a solid foundation. The angst, the stare, the EVERYONE CAN SEE HIS LOVE FOR HER BUT SHE DOES NOT, the subtle acts of care - they're all heart-warming & adorable.

The pairing of Han So Hee & Park Hyung Sik is unlikely, but the casting director made the right choice. Following their action-packed dramas (MY NAME & HAPPINESS), we get to see both of them in a more relaxed setting, showcasing their versatility as actors. I can't get enough of Han So Hee's performance. The portrayal of her role is AMAZING. I adore her bubbly character. And again, Hyung Sik is back with another gentle male lead character. He's a brilliant actor who can captivate his audience & easily transport his emotions & thoughts to us through his excellent acting skills. I've to admit, the chemistry between the leads was MADLY ELECTRIFYING.

Although I wish it were longer or had more episodes, this story doesn't waste a second of its running time, cutting in & out while telling its story effectively & with a lot of cool visual cues & solid OSTs to boot through only four episodes. So, while I wish we saw more of these two characters, I understand.

No spoilers here but SOUNDTRACK NO 1 rounds out its story beautifully. This drama is best compared to a riveting short story. I was captured by the words & the emotions, stringing along to the end but then surprised to find it over just as quickly as I began.

In short, It's hard not to like what SOUNDTRACK NO 1 offers. It's a simple, effective drama & a good gateway into Korean content if you've never watched one of these dramas before. With good writing, strong characters & a couple of excellent songs on the OST, SOUNDTRACK NO 1 stays in-key & delivers its four-track ensemble with beautiful grace. This is one of the better dramas of 2022.

Story is about one sided love and the whole drama evolves around how the male lead ( Park hyung sik) feels, cares for her. I felt kind of sad while watching because of the Park Hyung sik unnoticed love and care. However, it has a happy ending so it feels wholesome at the end.

So,this drama seems pretty okay as it has only 4 episodes . But,there isn't much to offer and nothing is new in this, kind of story that we already watched somewhere in K drama's.

A must watch korean drama. The cinematography and the chemistry 💯 💯💯🔥🔥🔥. Hansohee is really a versatile actress, I love her so much. She can portray different characters so well. I'm looking forward to this drama and i'm really excited for episode 2. Their chemistry is topnotch so i'm really mad that it is only 4episodes drama. They deserve more than that.

I actually paid for a Disney+ subscription just to watch this series. Little did I know that it was going to be such a short series. I expected much more romance/intimacy from these two beautiful actors. "Nevertheless", I don't regret my subscription. I watch all of Park Hyung-sik's work and have seen his transformation from "High Society", to "Happiness" and is a delight to watch every time. Soundtrack #1 had great music and beautiful imagery. It is lighthearted and good clean love. Now I realize why Disney was the right streaming service for it. Give it a try. You won't be disappointed and you can watch it's entirety in one sitting.

Soundtrack#1 is a romantic work that was as beautiful and exquisite as a picture, with everything in its place to the point, however it was a shame that it couldn't last for many episodes, which might have been a better treatment in terms of character development and relationship of friendship to love exposure.

The drama has a good soundtrack, soothing and alleviating oneself from any sadness, to create a good mood. Soundtrack #1 elicited sympathy from viewers by depicting the romantic story of 'between love and friendship' in a cute manner, bearing satisfactory results, although it could have been much more than that.

The major point missing in the drama was the connection they formed, their past wasn't much explored, how they connected and 20 years later, the bond still prevailed. This could have had a major impact in the story which otherwise ended with a very simple and cliche ending.

My Rating : 6.5/10.
