Story

Yi Young is a musician who is trying to get by while hoping in getting into an orchestra to play as a timpanist. Suddenly, a strange man, Jang Yoon, appears in her life. At first, he works part-time for her by singing to her to help her fall asleep, even though he is really bad at singing. Slowly, Yi Young starts having feelings for him, but he is still a mystery to her.

But that is not the only thing that connects those two. Yi Young has a rare condition that makes her forget events and not being able to sleep at night. She has actually forgotten about an accident she has been in when a man who was with her died. And worse of all, Jang Yoon seems to be trying to make her remember.

The start of the drama was a bit odd. The main idea was original, yes, but didn’t seem to be interesting enough to support sixteen episodes. But, when they added the whole mystery plot, things got really interesting. They actually built it quite well and kept the suspense high till the very end. The romance was okay too and the conclusion of it was pretty good, original and realistic. The side stories, however, were weak and they didn’t develop them well.

The characters

Characters

Yi Young is optimistic, funny and loves playing music. However, she finds it difficult to make her dreams come true. Kim Se Jung’s best performance, as she was really good with the drama scenes and she had chemistry with her love interest.

Jang Yoon is a mysterious man, who just wants to get the truth out. He loves playing the piano and is actually a kind and warm person. Yeon Woo Jin was pretty good as Yoon and he nailed the action scenes.

The couple

Cinematography

The drama kept the pace quick while presenting the mystery in a way that kept the interest high throughout the drama.

Overall

My overall rating is seven out of ten. The mystery was really good but the rest of the stories was so so.
