This thread is for discussion of episode 1 of The Musical. Please check the drama info & schedule thread for more info and rules on how to avoid spoilers and such.
---------------------------------------------------------
Go Eun Bi is a medical student attending one of the top schools in the country. She's studying to be a doctor but really wants to be a musical actress, despite not being a good singer and lacking proper training. She dreams of being on stage like the renowned musical actress Bae Kang Hee.
Hong Jae Yi is a musical composer. He used to date Kang Hee. One night he runs into Eun Bi while she is singing one of his songs. Jae Yi tells Eun Bi she lacks talent and should give up on musicals. She quits medical school and attempts to prove him wrong. A year passes and Eun Bi has failed all her auditions.
Yu Jin is a musical investor. He doesn't invest in them for a love of the arts but rather for profit. Eun Bi tries to audition for a male part in a musical but Jin realizes she's a girl and sends her home.
Christine aka Bok Ja approaches Eun Bi about being her musical teacher. She claims to be from New York and has a unique teaching method.
Jin holds a competition to fund a musical. Jae Yi's friend, Gu Jak, wants to enter his musical into the competition. He asks Jae Yi to be the composer but he refuses. Gu Jak needs at least 2 guys and 3 girls for the parts but he's short on girls. He gives one of the parts to Bok Ja.
Bok Ja gets drunk after a meeting and Jae Yi ends up having to take care of her. He calls Eun Bi to pick up Bok Ja from his place. After she arrives to get Bok Ja, Eun Bi tells Jae Yi she's an aspiring musical actress and Bok Ja is her teacher. Jae Yi tells her he might have a part for her and has Eun Bi sing for him. While singing, Jae Yi realizes Eun Bi is the no talent girl from that night.
---------------------------------------------------------
The Musical is our first new drama for 2012. So far, so good. Eun Bi is hilarious. All that daydreaming is bound to get her in real trouble. I liked that Eun Bi and Jae Yi didn't recognize each other right away. I'm not familiar with Park Ki Woong or Ki Eun Se but I didn't have an issue with either of them in ep 1.
The scheduled days for The Musical are Tuesday and Thursday. We're leaving an open day between each episode to give members more time to watch and discuss the drama.
