Park Min Apr 29 2023 7:10 pm It's amazing how bad this turned out to be. Truly abysmal!

wen Apr 26 2020 8:04 am i miss dramas about kpop, this drama have much cover song and their harmony was good..

kare_bear Mar 15 2019 9:37 am I totally agree with one of the commentor that the story is a bit cruel with Se Chan’s death then the stupid love triangle between brothers. It’s so ridiculous. I really enjoyed the musical but most of all I’m only watching this drama to support Jin Young and Henry. Not crazy about the girl that plays “Hera”... her acting is par. I think after watching “Moonlight Drawn By Clouds” that I’m so used with Jin Young’s chemistry with Kim Yoo Jung plus her acting ability is very diverse. Both played so well and immerse themselves into their characters that you could see and feel their chemistry as a couple.

★ May 30 2018 4:37 am AWESOME ! even I really late to find this drama, but I never regret to check it ^^

Jansen Jan 10 2018 9:18 am A BIT OF SPOILER: I love how it was glee-like. Everything was GREAT! The OST and the actors were great. But the love triangle was a bit cruel ? and I can’t get over with Kang Se Chan’s death like seriously. I was happy with Ray being in love with Hera but Se Chan’s love was different. When Se Chan and Sejong was fighting over Hera I thought Se Chan was being too selfish and voted Sejong for Hera but when Ray and Sejong was fighting for Hera I liked Ray better but still ache for sejong’s love. ? Sometimes I wish she’ll chose Sejong over Ray and then sometimes I wish she’ll chose Ray over Sejong but in the end I still want her for KANG SE CHAN ?? His death is too cruel for me, I guess. I love sechan hehe

i didn't like it Dec 06 2017 1:25 pm not good but awesome*

CallinCactus Oct 28 2017 10:17 pm @ImpactFeb12 @Puri Actually, his name is Donghun (Donghoon)! After their debut in May with "Cactus," they recently just came back with their second single, "Callin'."

Chiko A Jul 07 2017 9:47 am It is a good drama. Especially the musics, how they sang it, and how the cameramen shoot it. Actually, I firstly attracted because of short video about how they sing one song.

Puri Jan 04 2017 2:42 am @ImpactFeb12 The impact leader(Sa kijoon) is played by Kim Minjae He was a trainee of CJE&M but become an actor after this drama. You can see him in Twenty Again, Goblin, Romantic Doctor teacher Kim, Mari and I etc. He also did 2 soundtracks for his drama and just got new actor award at sbs. Other members are Park junhee (Jun of A.C.E), Kim Sehyoon (Wow of A.C.E) and Donghyun (A.C.E). They were 1 million dance studio crew, you can see them in Sing - Pentatonix choreography. They're now in a group A.C.E, have their own youtube channel releasing dance cover and sing cover videos, maybe debut soon.

Bana Mar 31 2016 7:11 am Hayss. I love the drama. But they have so many problemssssss and its irritating! Please focus on music more than solving problem that doesn't make any sense -_- btw i already finished watching this drama. B1A4 Fighting! Jinyoung is so handsome here baro too.

Kim Rai Jan 17 2016 9:54 am Had a great time watching the drama.. Though it was only a drama...there was an encouraging moral in it and that was cool... "KEEP THE FAITH" ...and Kwak Si Yang, Henry and Jin Young... "truly,madly,deeply..." :)

Veronica Jan 12 2016 10:23 pm The whole drama was very entertaining...but i wanned her to go to ray not si-jang...well...i hate love triangles...and her going with si-jang wasnt very convincing....i love jin young oppa and henry oppa and min-jae oppa.....and they were amazing...and i was really really happy to watch this only for them and i came here only for them so fighting...and henry oppa waiting for your upcoming dramas..:) saranghae

Shandy Dec 23 2015 2:41 am This drama is amazing. but the Lead Actress is not good. There's no chemistry with Se Jong and Se Chan/Ray. But Se Chan/Ray is really good. I like his sweetness. :) Anyways, I just dont like the female lead. XD OPPA Henry and Jin Young ♥

Bruna Sep 08 2015 3:17 pm SPOILER: I can't deal with Se-Chan's death, I cry every episode and I can't deal with her being with Se-Jong, I wish she stayed with Ray. However, I enjoyed the drama and the songs. I really loved Henry with Woo Rin they're so cute! Great work.

jandi Aug 10 2015 8:08 pm I like the whole story line and the characters but that lead girl is really annoying because i can't ever see her being in a love triangle. When there's a love triangle with two good loking guys then the girl has to have at least one very noticible attraction. Either being pretty or having a cheerful attitude. She just didn't seem like the type to have two good looking guys after her. She didnt have the charm.

herbmom Jun 25 2015 10:24 pm I loved all the music in this drama. The opening and closing scenes were a bit "Glee-like," but the rest fit nicely into the flow of the story. Considering the inexperience of most of the cast, they did really well. There was a lot of energy and not a draggy moment. The ending left wide open the possibility of a sequel. Thanks for the fun!

Asmimie May 01 2015 12:18 am i love everything in this drama and the song , jin young and kwak si-yang oppa love you .

Aliefia Apr 30 2015 11:49 pm can anyone tell me what is the title of the song which played at the end of drama? in every episode :(

melisa ho Apr 28 2015 12:08 pm I really love everything in this drama...this is amazing drama..i love kwak si yang,jin young, especially henry. So smart and funny....he is amazing so many talent he has...and he can speak at so many language well

kdramalover Apr 27 2015 10:15 pm I love everything about this drama except for the love triangle :( ... I'm currently on ep7 and I have no idea which one she'll chose, or is it going to be an open ending for the three, but the love triangle is seriously too cruel ;( ...

jihan benazir Apr 25 2015 9:20 pm love the story. love the ost!

vina aprisilia Apr 24 2015 7:46 am Woooww.... I like this drama and OST this drama♡♡♡ Jin young and henry oppa Love you!♡♡

pinseno Apr 20 2015 10:35 am I really love this drama. Fresh actors/reeses. Good arrangement and songs and i really enjoy the storyline. But... i hate hae ra's traits so much!!! >:0

Syukri Apr 19 2015 10:22 am I just started watching this drama and I feel that I am about to like this drama + musical.:)

ohho Apr 17 2015 9:45 am I watched this drama via tv station at my country. I lost track they are now at what episode but I'm a bit frustrated and annoyed at Kang Se Jong's character. Why he need to just keep quite and choose not to come clean when problem arise? Arghhh.

jinyounggurl Apr 11 2015 7:49 pm Who knows the song that sejong shud sing for his debut but scarlet/woori took his song? -ep 2- plsss

eli Apr 10 2015 11:21 pm I can't stop crying....I really really love this drama....

selena Apr 06 2015 5:41 pm At first episode made me so excited that everything was very wonderful. After episode 2 Sechan died I though I didn't stop watched but when Ray came who made me attented again and I fall with him.Anyway I dislike the triangle love that made me bored I think the story should present the other side.I confess that I watched until the end cause Jinyoung and Henry I think they had a charming in acting and I love their voice The bad thing for me was the main leads didn't have a chemistry they looked like a cousin more than the lover.The best thing was music that they sang together. I think jinyoung and Min hyo Rin had a good voice and more emotion.

ManInLove Mar 30 2015 12:38 pm anyone know the real name of the girl with ray on the ep 12 airplaine scene?

briana Mar 25 2015 9:01 pm I will cry myself to sleep when this show ends. It's the BEST show ive ever watched

Chae Mar 04 2015 4:05 am Oh my god, episode 4 or 5, soooo much fan service (especially if you like Henry xD )

Ari Mar 02 2015 4:14 pm Also it's defin not the person they have linked here haha He's either a trainee or a rookie so I couldn't really find anything on him excluding the video :D

Ari Mar 02 2015 4:11 pm Kim Min Jae plays Impacts leader KiJoon If you search Hug Me Timon Youn you can find a video of him dancing

Yaya Mar 02 2015 8:18 am Is it true story or just drama??

Poopy Feb 18 2015 9:48 am Henry is also really cute. He probably is great at violin.

Ella Feb 18 2015 2:38 am WoW Jin Young I'm a big fan of B1A4 love your voice so much, It's one of the best voice I have ever heard...Henry I really love you song "Trap" I think is one of the best songs ever, you had a good performance and a very nice voice :) Kwak Si Yang had a hot body and a cute face hehe...Love Persevere Goo Hae Ra ^_^

lee yura Feb 17 2015 5:21 am Ohhhhh...i see!!

Fatima Brnal Feb 16 2015 2:11 am I wanna see what the people really look like since they've already been on tv and how did the production team know there story?!!

Lyn Feb 13 2015 7:26 pm Henry fighting!

Impact Feb 12 2015 2:09 pm Who are the "Impact" actors tho? I really am curious to who plays the leader and the other members of Impact.

joejoe Feb 10 2015 2:33 am I like Se Chan because he is so adorable and I like Ray too. Love the twins.

Anhphuong Feb 09 2015 1:54 pm tvN and now Mnet. why cant idol become male lead? why always chose the (sorry) ugly one to be male lead?? why?? to prove that the female is not only clumsy (in all the ways that a person possibly can) but also can be sooooooo blind?? it's 2015! get over Boys Over Flower already and give us some new type of couple. Se Chan is charming and be kind to her and love her. give him the love he deserve !

lilipup Feb 02 2015 5:44 am @kwak si yang.. thats the "noble idiot" trope... but i do think they are the OTP in this drama

Kwak Si -Yang Jan 31 2015 10:08 pm Can anyone help who is the lead couple is it Se Jong and Hae Ra because I really want Se Jong to be with her they liked each other since the beginning but Se Jong didn't want Se Chan to be hurt so he never confessed his feelings to her and what I hate is that he is pushing her away Why

Georg Jan 18 2015 7:49 pm Spoiler Alert:

@Tohru, I agree with you. I don't think Se-Jong and Se-Chan are twins either. Their mother seems to have led a complicated life. I think Henry's look alike friend is Se-Chan's long lost twin and will become part of a troubling new love triangle between lead couple when he joins their SuperstarK group for their debut years later.

Tohru Jan 17 2015 1:06 pm

spoiler

I believe that Kang se jong and Kang se chan werent brothers. Cuz since the first episode people are always saying that they just dont look like, ok, could be. But in the end of the first episode, Henry call someone and says that he meet someone just like that person and send a picture with the 3 of they.... Then Se chan dies and "he" appears pasing by his family without knowing.... The real twin maybe....

weniliria Jan 16 2015 9:57 pm

spoiler*

i saw it coming in the end i was like "he isn't really dead is he, maybe got amnesia or trying to fix what happened etc." but i need the next ep already TT-TT

kiss Jan 09 2015 1:03 am can't wait to see jinyoung!!! Go B1A4!!
