Head over heels... the drama captivated me.
The humor was exactly my taste, and the actors were excellent. I laughed a lot, cried bitterly, and rooted for the characters... unfortunately, only until episode 10.The last two episodes were a disappointment for me personally, not because of the actors, but because of the story, which I found too chaotic, inconclusive at times, and humorless. Until last week (episode 10) I had saved the film as one of the best dramas andI've seen so far and was really looking forward to the last two episodes. It's a tragedy that many series don't have a clear ending because of the script or production, and this is especially true for this one.
To console myself over the ending, I started rewatching the film and am glad I don't have to wait for the sequels anymore. :)
PS: I didn't pay much attention to the music, and it didn't particularly stand out to me. Whether that's good or bad is up to each individual to decide. Since I have to award stars for this as well, I've chosen the middle ground, but that doesn't really count as a rating.

Watch this film like you would listen to music
At first, I thought the story was too drawn-out, but over time, I realized it was just the right pace to reach the soul.Even though it sometimes feels like the actors need five minutes to finish a simple sentence, and you want to shake the characters to finally open their mouths, that's ultimately what makes the film special. It's like slow music you listen to, giving you time to really immerse yourself in the music.
The actors embody the different characters brilliantly – not just the main roles, but also the supporting roles are superbly cast. You don't just see the characters' inner moods, you feel them and empathize with them.
All in all, this film is a wonderful production with atmospheric images and excellently chosen music. So if you ask me, "Do you like Brahms?", I answer with a resounding YES.
