just watched the 6 episodes version, and I was also curious about why did that "California road" scene use Notre Dame (I can hear audio story from the environment sound in that car)
welp, first, the recurring music using in each episode is "Esmeralda Variation", it's like a very common choice for ballet competitions, so the music is acting like a callback for Yumi's first lie in her life, I guess? (She "learned" from that delusional westerner lady who's self-claiming as royal family, then the first attempt was her ballet class thing and she made some lies, to uh ascend)
so, could it be, just a simple random trivia related to that Esmeralda Variation? Or, I have some other thoughts...
tbh, I never read the book of The Hunchback of Notre-Dame, I only watched the french musical based on the story (yeah but they're quite different I think), so besides the same things shared by Esmeralda and Yumi (they are good-looking females, and, is Yumi as same as gypsies?), I keep wondering what will it be like when the whole scandal got exposed by reporter sanpei? I bet there must be tons of similarly astonishing events happened in real Korea society (and every country), but in this drama, what will people react to the news? Yumi has lots of witnesses in her road of lies, will some of them blame it on her being poor and desperate? Or will people try to justify her past?
and if my memories are clear, I remember throughout the whole show, somewhere it plays some kind of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star variation, maybe it has all to do with ballet and music, in competition terms, the two music may represent different ranking or i dunno I aint no expert though.
