Do you like Brahms? Kind of
If you want a slow and warm feeling drama then Do you like Brahms? is for you. Park Eun Bin plays a music student Chae Song Ah who wants to become a violinist. But she has started late and is a fourth year University student but tries her best. She tries hard to be good at playing the violin but doesn't have the talent. Meanwhile Kim Min Jae plays Park Joon Young a talented Pianist and had been playing in various competitions but has taken a one year sabbatical. He is unsatisfied and unhappy with playing and doesn't enjoy it. Both leads are introverted and sweet.
Plot wise there isn't much to the drama. The leads are cute together. The drama makes good use of music and has a good OST that works well with the plot. As much as those parts are enjoyable there is are frustrating love triangles in the middle of it all. At first the leads are quite with each other but as they get together in the second half there is a lot of miscommunication between them. There isn't much growth to either the main leads and the other characters. The leads break up near the end and get back together in the second half of last episode. This I think should have happened earlier but they spent to much time on one of the love triangles.
The second leads Lee Jung Kyung (Park Ji Hyun and Han Hyun Ho (Kim Sung Cheol) are a big part of the story but there isn't much attention given to their development either. Jung Kyung especially is used only to come in between the leads. She does have depth but that is ignored in favour of the leads.
That's not to say there is nothing enjoyable about the drama. Especially in the first half before the characters get together is definitely the better part. The leads shared their problems and communicated well. And it would have been good if that continued. The break up I actually didn't have a problem with that. It seemed necessary.
For me the second half wasn't a surprise at all. There was of course going to be angst. There were times Song Ah stood up for herself but at times I was frustrating to watch her be used by her professor. The characters talked too slowly at times especially the female lead. The drama had so much potential but it failed to use it properly.
