The Double – An OST So Good, It Inspired Me to Play It

Gave The Double a second chance after putting it on hold for a while, and I was not disappointed. While the story was well-executed, what truly stood out to me was the OST. Episode 11, in particular, was unforgettable—the FL’s qin performance was breathtaking, and the music was so powerful that I’m now inspired to learn the song on my violin. That’s how good it was.

The drama is heavy on politics and revenge. The romance is present but isn’t the main focus—it complements the narrative without overshadowing the central themes. The acting was strong, and the emotional weight of the story was handled well.

And the FL’s ex-husband? The audacity of that man! His actions were frustrating, but they added to the drama’s tension in a way that kept me engaged.

The ending was ambiguous, which I actually loved. I’m still unsure whether the CP reunited in life or in death, as it’s debatable, but that open-ended nature made it even more impactful.

Overall, The Double was a well-done revenge drama, but the OST is what truly made it memorable for me. Highly recommend for the music alone!
