This rumor was around since The Heirs ended and finally it
is proven to be real. My initial reaction is “not very interested”. A KDrama
fans you will all notice that this KDrama has none of the big names we are used
to such as Lee Min Ho, Park Shin Hye, Kim Soo Hyun or Micky Yuchan. Anyhow let’s get to this drama’s basic details.
Firstly this drama was shown on KBS1 with English subtitles.
It was in the 20% popularity slot and
came out as an evening drama. The drama
itself was not very famous as the other KDramas shown on TV Derana such as Boys
over Flowers, The Heirs or Princess’s man.
This drama has 152 episodes with 30 to 39 minutes allocated for one
episode. However Wikipedia has also mentioned that this drama only had 35
episodes however when I watched this drama it had 151 episodes. This drama was
shown from November 2013 to June 2014. So now let’s get to the drama’s plot
line.
This drama is a family genre drama. So don’t worry there
wouldn’t be much kissing scenesJ.
This drama’s main characters are Gong Deul Im (played by Kim Dasom),
Young Sang Hyung (played by Kwag
Hee Sung), Park Hyung Woo (played
by Beak Sung Hyun), Han Tea Kyung
(played by Kim Hyung Jung) and Gong
So Im (played by Hwang Sun Hee).
The story revolves around messy and outgoing Duel Im. She aspires to be a musical
actress against her parent’s wishes. On her way to an audition she meets Hyung
Woo who is a lawyer. He accidentally destroys Duel Im’s dress and their first
meeting is not perfect. However with time they fall in love and learn to pursue
their dreams. Her sister is successful lawyer Gong So Im who is in love with
Hyung Woo and is best friends with her boss Tea Kyung. Unknown to her she is an
adopted child.
Hyung Woo is a
lawyer and the son of a Judge. He always wanted to be a musical actor but his
parents were against it and moreover he had a problem with his vocal cords. His
best friend is Tea Kyung and he falls in love with Duel Im because she is
everything he wanted to be. Unknown to him Gong So Im is in love with him. He
later gives up his law practice and pursues his dream to be a musical actor.
However So Im destroys this and makes him start a practice with her as his partner.
With the help of his father and mother, Gong So Im will do anything to get
Hyung Woo even when she gets to know her sister is Hyung Woo’s lover.
Young Sang Hyung is
Hyung Woo’s cousin. Apart from him being drop dead cute he is also the villain.
He sees Duel Im’s talent and wants her to sign a deal with him. He
will do anything to keep Deul Im to himself. He does everything under his
control to tear Deul Im and Hyung Woo apart.
Gong So Im is in
love with Hyung Woo since college. She doesn’t tell this to him because she
thinks his family will not like her as she is very poor. Her sister is Duel Im
and she does everything she could to break Duel Im and Hyung Woo. She refuses Tea Kyung as she says she doesn't love
him. She will do anything to get Hyung Woo.
Tea Kyung is an
extremely cute, gentle and kind hearted person. He is in love with Im So since
college. He is also Duel Im’s boss as he is the leader of a drama troupe and a
music director. He is so sad when Im So refuses to marry him. However he
remains as her best friend.
Ending – Spoilers ahead
beware!!!

| The ending scene |
Well the end is pretty nice. Tea Kyung marries Im So when
she falls in love with him. They get to know they are going to be parents at
the end of the drama. Deul Im on the other hand finds out that she is adopted.
She is forced to give up her relationship with Hyung Woo – if I remember right
it is because there was possibility that they were siblings. Hyung Woo at the
end of the drama leaves to America to study and he might never come back.

| Duel Im and Hyung Woo |
1 year later…
Duel Im’s costume is ruined by a man whom she starts to
scold. She looks up and sees Hyung Woo. They have a chat as to why he never
contacts her over a coffee. In the end she goes to her show, however the main
actor is having a stomach ache. As soon as his part comes in Hyung Woo comes on
stage and a surprised Deul Im sings along with him. So in the end Hyung Woo and
Deul Im are finally happy as the curtains close up. We are to assume they got
married and lived happily ever after
Tv Derana may show this drama in the usual KDrama slot at
8.30 pm weekdays. They might however move it into the Princess’s Man slot as
7.00pm weekdays, which is the time the Lord Buddha’s life story goes right now.
If Melody of Love it clashes with Sujatha or Wassane Premaya, I will not be watching
it. As I said in a former post guys never give up what is ours for something
which is not ours. No matter what Wassane Premaya and Sujatha are Sri Lankan
dramas and are doing very well to break away from traditional Sri Lankan
dramas. If we give up watching them then never in our lives will we be able to
see such good dramas again. Well any way hope you guys like this drama however
most fans showed disgust about the last episode.
