A Befitting Sequel to 2022's Sleeper Hit

Disney+ is back with the sequel to its 2022 hit “Soundtrack”. Starring Park Hyung Sik and Han So Hee in a “Friends to Lovers” romance, the show was well-received because of its heartfelt story and the natural chemistry between the two stars. “Unrequited Love” seems to be the recurrent theme in this series. Banking on this premise, “Soundtrack #2” stars Geum Sae Rok, Steve Noh and DEMIAN in a surreptitious love triangle that is equal parts exciting and intricate. With Director Kim Hee Won’s return, you can expect great things and honestly, I wasn’t disappointed with the pilot episodes. Despite the short format, the first two episodes weave a somber tale encompassing the main lead’s past affairs and their present trajectory. It is as slow burn as it can be and yet, the characters are so quirky; you can’t help but fall in love instantly.

Hot take: It's better than season 1

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Park HyungSik and Han SoHee's duo, but I PERSONALLY am not a big fan of friends to lovers....Probably that's why I loved the story of this Soundtrack more.
I loved the "PASSION" our main leads had for each other....
I saw many people criticizing the female lead, but as a person who unfortunately suffers from inferiority complex, I TOTALLY understand her being cautious about taking SuHo's help.
So, I can say I loved how, instead of being picture perfect, our leads had flaws, and they did overcome it....

Ending was a bit rushed but I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS SOUNDTRACK...♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

What is point of Love triangle

They are showing a love triangle in which we already know that 2nd lead has no chance
He isn't even mentioned as lead character
He is supporting cast so we know he has no chance of getting together with FL so its already decided love triangle which make it boring
If this drama was about love triangle then they shouldn't show it as this much biased on one side

I hope to see a love triangle in which we get confused about who will be choosen but this is just too much one sided
Fake love triangle.... FRAUD STORY

Short, but full of heart

I was so excited to see another Soundtrack show, had loved #1, so was intrigued. As a pianist myself I can relate to so many aspects of her character. Both the main leads really portrayed the depth of emotions from the past and present scenes. I found myself deeply engaged in their story and was rooting for them. The moment of connection is filled with all the right feels and the chemistry between them is perfection.

I was glad thos didn’t end right there and took us on a journey through the challenges of second chance love, which of course has to be just a glimpse due to the length of the series.

Soundtrack is a short series, so everything has to be right on pointe or this thing just wouldn’t work.

Beautiful ending to a short mini drama full of heart.

Less is More

. One of the reasons my preferences shifted from #KDrama to #JDrama was the saggy bloat of the traditional 16+ #KDrama format. Seeing 12 ep #KDramas becoming mainstream and many being made in the 4-8 range is very encouraging and this Drama is part of the trend There were no significant flaws and the Drama was an excellent example of short form storytelling. Also, impressed that in the compact timeframe, the 'second chance' trope was well explored with analysis of why it didn't work the first time. Highly recommended

SHOULD HAVE LET HER GO TO SANTIAGO ALONE

The start of the drama raised my expectations high but the last few minutes were beyond me. Apart from that it was overall a good one. The first impulse on seeing the show is to compare it with the soundtrack 1 but that would not do justice to this one. That soundtrack had a different universe this one has a different one. Maybe it was the fear of this comparison only that the writers and the directors tried to give this one a haphazard happy ending.

The beginning really served the ex-lovers troupe where the two leads meet again after a long time with their changed situations. Everything was amazing honestly the characters, the emotions, the setup everything. Especially the chemistry between the leads goodness I wonder what a good execution could have brought out of the gem of this chemistry.
The plot development tried to show how just getting back together is not the endgame for the leads and even if they do get together the breaking apart can happen again if there is no clarity on the character's part about what they did and why they did what they did and what do they want. However, they did not answer any of it they did not even show the female lead side of the story of why they broke up in the past properly.

Also, there was no need to put that poor second male lead i mean the lead characters already had enough of their problems to work on and I don't think either of them cared about poor K. (I didn't even feel bad for him. He was very extra.)

The last fifteen minutes did not make a single sense to me, everything was so rushed I wondered if I skipped something important.
it's not important to give a happy ending, where the leads always end up together to make a good drama.
Personally, I would have felt much better if she had gone to Santiago all alone and discovered herself even if that meant them not ending up together. Her just accepting the male leads company on her Santiago trip defeats the whole point of going there since she wanted to learn about herself and love things just the way they are without letting her inferiority come in between. It was so very unsettling.
Like what's the point of sending her on a trip, closing the shop and breaking up again if that's how they were going to end it, she could have just done that in Korea only why spend so much money. A trip like that will not help her.

I think I took this a little personally but was kinda self-destructive and contradictory.

Assisti Soundtrack #1 no início deste ano e fiquei com o gostinho de quero mais. Logo fiquei sabendo que Soundtrack #2 estava sendo produzido com outros atores, mas com o pano de fundo musical. Fiquei super empolgada e a sinopse parecia tão interessante quanto Soundtrack #1. Porém depois de assistir não consigo evitar me sentir um pouco desapontada. Não que tenha sido horrível, mas está bem longe da qualidade da primeira temporada. Embora os atores tenham química, nem de longe lembra a tensão das cenas da So Hee com o Hyung Sik. E a história em si também não é tão empolgante. Sem contar a instabilidade da protagonista feminina que é um pouco irritante. Entendo que ela estivesse perdida sobre a vida, mas ao mesmo tempo a falta de decisão sobre o que ela de fato queria me deixava sem paciência.

Por ser um drama curto não demanda muito tempo para assistir, então acaba não sendo tão custoso dedicar algumas horas para ver. Não chega a ser uma história empolgante, mas ajuda a passar o tempo. E se você gostou da primeira temporada e gosta de uma história com pano de fundo musical, talvez valha a pena dar uma chance.

6 episódios, pouco desenvolvimento dos personagens

Não precisaria de 16 episódios com é de costume nos doramas coreanos, mas 6 foi pouco.

Vi uma galera dizendo que teria sido melhor eles terminarem separados, não concordo, acho que faltou desenvolvimento. Era nítido que eles se gostavam, e não é para tanto que eles voltam a namorar. Sim, gosto de finais felizes, mas tem que ser bem contado.
Soo Ho era um sonhador e correu atras do sonho dele, qurria ver mais papeis do Steven, ele trabalho muito bem no papel, dramatico e engraçado ao mesmo tempo.
Hyun Seo, aff, não gostei muito da personagem, quando se esta em um relacionamente é fato querer se apoiar no outro, como assim, não quero sua ajuda, pois vou ficar te devendo, hã??? Sem sentido nenhum esse sentimento dela.

Ahhh, não precisava de triâgulo amoroso, desnecessário. Poderiam ter deixado o persogem Kei como um irmão mais novo. Teria ficado bem melhor.

Agora porque faltou desenvolvimento, final apressado e sem construção. Eu entendo os medos deles, medo de voltarem e terminarem do mesmo jeito, e é por isso que você tenta mudar, fazer de forma diferente, Hyun Seo não queria mudar, isso me deixou um pouco com raiva, como assim, você ama o cara e prefere se afastar do que tentar melhorar, não faz sentido na minha cabeça.
Outra coisa que me deixou confusa foi o e-mail que ela mandou para ele, deu a entender um fechamento de história, ele apagou o e-mail e depois do nada ele apareceu no aerporto. Acho que teria sido bem melhor ela viajar sozinha, se achar, se entender e voltar com outro pensamento, aí assim o fato de terminarem juntos faria sentido, mas não jogado do forma que foi para a gente.

Mas em um todo não foi ruim, eu gostei, gosto de histórias de romance assim, leves, descontraídas e sem muitas intrigas.

Segundas chances

Pelo menos o final foi do meu agrado ?
Acho que gostei mas da segunda temporada do quê da primeira, a relação deles foi reconstruída a medida que a gente foi assistindo, acho que o primeiro término deles foi doloroso porque como a hyeonseo falou, eles eram diferentes demais e não tinha um consenso e sinceramente ela não conseguia acompanhar o ritmo dele e ele o dela. O segundo termino na minha visão, foi mais porque eles precisam superar o que tinha acontecido e o que estava acontecendo entre eles e a vida deles, não deixa claro se eles realmente terminaram como um casal, talvez tenha sido como amigos apesar de querer eles juntos, o que mas me deixou feliz foi que ela encontrou de volta o caminho pra música que era o que eu mais queria e um ajudou o outro, acho que ela que foi a maior beneficiada nisso já que ele tinha conquistado o sucesso antes, ela percebeu que tava fazendo as coisas pra ela do jeito errado. Foi ótimo pra passar o tempo, as músicas são agradáveis de ouvir. Eu gostei...
