She really needs to stop making the second male leads suffer because they are so kind.
Just watched I Hear Your Voice. Liked the story, totally could not understand how the FL could fall the over-emotional high-school ML, especially when there was this great second ML. I have seen this in other k-dramas too. The main lead has a major relationship with a younger, not yet fully adult person, often a high school student, who has a major crush on the lead. There is also another, fully mature person who, it would seem , would be a great match for the main lead. The writer resolves this by discarding the older, mature person for the immature, needy and much younger person. Always makes me re-evaluate the main lead as someone who needs this kind of power dynamic relationship. And I wind up losing respect for that character.
I think your review is too generous. I was going to stop watching after episode 4 , but then watched 5 . It was too much. I read through the short episode synopses and realized I would miss nothing if I skipped to episode 16. Even that was a waste. And, perhaps because I don’t know Korean culture that well, it seemed to me that a 35 year old woman who would submit herself to that kind of motherly abuse was ridiculous. I would rate the story a 3.0.
About the music. Stand By Your Man? That was the theme? And it’s repetition became laughable. It was only surpasses by the Swedish 1967 movie Elvira Madigan, which used Mozart’s Concerto No. 1 to death. It was so overused that one man in the theater where I saw it yelled out that if he heard that theme music one more time he would throttle someone. So I would rate the music a 1.0.
I agree that the acting was first rate but the rewatch value, to me, was 0.
