Look, Soundtrack #1 will not be the most outstanding, unique, heart-wrenching, tearjerking Korean drama you will ever get to watch. It’s full of tropes, with a childhood friends-to-lovers romance that blooms because they end up sharing the same house. Of course, they aren’t together because of miscommunication. But there’s a simplicity to the series that makes the romance work– the two friends have been written in a way that makes them understand each other’s aspirations, and so they would act to make sure the other person can go for their dreams, or at least, to make that journey a bit easier. Soundtrack #1 won’t have the melodrama plenty of K-dramas have, but there’s true love nonetheless, and it plays out in just four episodes.

No wonder they came up with a second soundtrack.

The music truly makes the series. One might say the series is quite a soundtrack.
