Unexpectedly - as I usually like to keep bands' interest separate from drama - I loved this drama. The series had enough twists and turns to keep you gripped, a real shocker of a story twist almost from the off. Some wildly attractive bohemian-type "eye candy" in every meaning of the term, especially ji hjuk (Sung Joon) for me :) It veered off the school angle half way through. I thought it might be my antidote to School 2013 withdrawal symptoms, but in that sense it turned out not to be. But it certainly took your mind off it. Certainly it's about the impact of girls and romance clashing with ambition and celebrity when emotions are still haywire as adolescents, but surely even more about the closeness of the relationships binding a boy band together. I never like reaching the end of a series, there's got to be development if it's a good drama but so often the wrap up is too neat and verging on cheesy and this did not altogether escape that. It's more about giving the fans a "feel good" ending. But overall I loved this series, I kept watching it without any breaks, which is unusual for me. It also had two great songs, of which I especially liked Wake Up. Knowing the outcome, I'm not sure it's one I'd watch again, but that's probably true of most.
