Title Do You Like Brahms? Spoiler
I've just watched the first two episodes and I quite like the cinematography and the story (even though I think they ruined it a bit with those love triangles). In the comments, I saw that some people are annoyed by how certain characters (ex. the one who called her ''unnie'' which was more ironical than honest...) behaved. But, that's actually why I liked it, those things happen in real life a lot. The same goes for the disrespectful conductor. (Almost) everyone who's been in a (classical) music school experienced something similar. Teachers, conductors and other staff can be not just overly strict but also rude. I know that many people who watched they show wanted Song Ah to talk back or defend herself, but it's really hard to do that in real life in front of the whole orchestra without getting an even worse backlash. In other words, the conductor would've been even more pissed off and he'd take his anger out on the whole orchestra, so the members wouldn't be very kind later to Song Ah or whoever decided to talk back. And the last thing I want to comment on is the female lead's timidity. While some think it's too much, I don't agree. In dramas, FL are always either too bubbly, naive and cheerful or very confident. In real life, it's more in between those two types (in general). I know so many people who are exactly like Chae Song Ah, including myself, so I don't think they went overboard by making her very shy/awkward. I'm looking forward to the next episode.
