Light, fluffy, and heartwarming. This movie is pretty much brain candy. It is about the journey of an idol boys group to stardom. It really did try to have a deeper purpose and meaning throughout the story, but never quite got it. They had a lot of potential within the first half an hour, but the movie kept moving back to the light and fluffy avoiding the heavier issues. I was also confused about the relationship of the main lead, the children, and the woman reading fortunes. I believe that something was lost here in translation, but close to the end I finally figured out they were brother and sister, the children were his sister's. That tidbit of knowledge made a lot of the story clearer. The meatier plot points would rear their heads once in a while, but were quickly tucked away. Though, a movie about the business of making an idol group denotes a simpler show anyway. If you go into this with that in mind then you won’t be disappointed. I enjoyed it well enough but I doubt that I’ll watch it again.
