Lacking logic and chemistry

Firstly, I'd like to acknowledge the superb performance of the child actors. In many ways, they out performed the main leads. Secondly, the music was enjoyable.

I found the story to be predictable. I saw the KiHo reveal coming from a mile away because the writers gave it away very early in the story (when he was waiting for her at the station and later when the friends know he's alive and well). So in that aspect, there was nothing gripping me.

I found that the series was mostly focused on the older singer's story. I don't mind that but there was no logic or substance behind her decisions or her plot point. The whole share transfer business was absolute crap. How can you even justify actively plotting against and denying an artist what she is promised? And what was the justification? Her mother didn't want her to be a president and the CEO thought she was too emotional to be on the board. Why? was having them wear a TShirt with "I'm a sexist AH" too subtle? He was more than happy to promise her the shares when he was signing her up. That was the fees she was entitled to at that point in her career. Neither the CEO nor the mother had any right to stop her from claiming the shares. The CEO even tried to justify his stance by claiming the singer was "too emotional". Do you not know that owning shares and being on the board of directors are two separate things? And classic case of sexism, just because a man has a difference of opinion with a woman, it doesn't mean that the woman is automatically more emotional than the man. It's crazy that they tried to normalise the whole foregoing of shares for this reason. What was the point of the show??!!

Coming to the romance, I waited for the whole show for the romance to start. I'm still waiting.
The love triangle and "who will she end up with?" question kept me guessing. And they successfully achieved this by having zero chemistry with either leads.

Overall, I wouldn't watch it again. But if you're not bothered by petty things, you can check it out.
