lots of yearning and intense longing, good and natural chemistry, scenes that will make your heart flutter.
The ost is kind of similar (sound and usage wise i feel), kind of synth heavy beats, sweet beats.

Both movies are very different in plot and... basically everything? (I guess both have a focus on music and take place in a school). I still felt like linking them through a recommendation as they feature the same main actor - Shim Hyun-seo. He started acting at a young age, so a lot of his youth is captured in films.
If you liked his portrayal as Yuwol and are curious about what hes been up to lately i suggest watching 404 as it shows a more grown up version. Likewise, if you liked him in 404 and are interested in checking out his previous works or his incredible dancing skills Yuwol seems like a good starting point
