Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol

What an amazing and refreshing drama! Original idea and I actually loved the personality of the characters. Not your typical script, I was enjoying it a lot until the last episode, what were they thinking with that ending?!? Felt so rushed, illogical and stupid, I am so shocked, it was going so well and then they completely messed it up! Such a shame, it could have been awesome.

This was the 2nd K-drama series that I watched and I absolutely loved it right up to 1/2 way through the last episode. I don't understand the ending. It felt like an exec lost a bet and and had to go with the worst ending option on the table. Nevertheless, the cast had fantastic acting skills, especially Jae-Wook Lee and Go Ara. I was hysterically crying and then having those happy memorable moments constantly as the story developed. Such a great intricate storyline that kept you engaged with trying to put all the pieces together. Just when you thought you had it all figured out, they would throw you a curveball and you had to start over from scratch. Great series overall and I would highly recommend it. I just wish they would redo the ending in order to maintain the integrity of the characters' depth and actors' talents. To be honest, it felt like the actors couldn't believe the ending themselves.

This show was definitely a mixed bag. I feel like the writers sort of wanted to "stick it" to the viewers by making this show "unpredictable," which it certainly was, but not necessarily in a good way. Some of the choices of the characters and the story line definitely felt a little disjointed, and I think it was because of this reason. The first 10 episodes of this show were fantastic, with a really great cast of likeable characters, a lovely soundtrack, great acting by actors who could actually play the instruments, and an engaging story. I think Jun's "secret" sort of felt hyped up but ended up being not too terrible, and then there was a definite lull in the show before picking up for the last two episodes. I feel like the writers should have stuck with the original ending and had the guts to leave things the way the viewer thought they were going without throwing a last minute change in at the end.

That being said, I do think it's worth a watch. The piano playing scenes are gorgeous and full of poignant meaning, and most of the story is well done. Were there some things I disliked? Yes, but the show is still good enough and deserves a watch. I give it a 7.5 because the good definitely outweighs the bad!

I really enjoy this story. And I think the male lead really made this story fantastic. The strong silent type who is overprotective of his lady love and simply wants to provide for her. Unraveling his mysterious background and his story made this love story all the more appealing. The lady love Ra-ra was ridiculous. She was ridiculous because she was below average intelligence. And that's putting it nicely. Her lack of intellect was so off-putting but she had a charm about her which was sadly quite infantile. Still, I was able to enjoy the story for the main male lead actor and the second male lead actor were both appealing gentlemen. Rara and the teenage girl were a bit annoying at times but overall, I still found Ra-ra somewhat likeable, I just found her dumbness annoying. She had zero life skills and it took a young man who is her Junior and significantly younger than her to help her survive. Which really was pathetic but at the same time romantic. In one scene he even indicates to one person that his lady love wasn't that bright. But she was bright in spirit and talented , which cheered everyone up who was around her.

The last half hour of the final episode was horrific. And I mean this is the worst ending in kdrama history. I doubt very seriously that there is another show that could surpass how absolutely abysmal and how utterly dumb the ending was. The show has its charms and I would have given the show and eight, possibly higher, but I deducted a point for that ending. I was so appalled. I noticed that k-dramas have a tendency of not ending their shows well but this one took the cake.

It's a good series, funny, moving etc., everything you want in a k-drama, but those last ten minutes! What we're they thinking?! The last ten minutes we're about as unbelievable as the random appearance of a grand piano on the beach.
