You guys! You gotta watch the 10-minutes extended trailer for this drama. It’s so fricking awesome! This show isn’t what I thought it would be. It’s so much more than just another brainless pretty boy drama with a shallow plotline, frivolous characters, and cheap pop-idol music. Just a 10-minute glimpse and already I can hardly contain my excitement. XD

@Pibbit You’re right. The extended trailer was great and the drama looks awesome. Didn’t recognise the names at first but when I saw their faces..woweee, we have Sung Joon (from Lie To Me), Kim Myung Soo (oh my oh my, I love Infinite) and the surprise of all surprises, Lee Min Ki (love him in Dalja Spring!). Cannot wait to see this.

Ohhhh, Lee Minki is super super hot and the drama is super duper. Not exactly the kind of idols we know but these are hot butt kicking street smart idols! Love them one and all. Kinda sad Lee Minki is only doing a cameo tho. Flower Boy Band..you guys rock!

After seeing 2 first eps of DH2 and Shut up ! :
DH2 : 0
Shut up ! : 3 ( Actors, filming and Music ).
Nothing more to say.
Well, i will add this is what you get when you want to do a sequel just for money, without a proper artistical vision…
Star Wars second trilogy syndrome anyone ?
February 3rd, 2012 at 2:15 pm
@Mystisith Duh..are you on the right page? This isn’t DH2, my friend..different channel
February 3rd, 2012 at 7:19 pm
@Zara : Maybe my comment wasn’t clear enough. I’m basically praising SUFBB here, and comparing it to DH2 because they are 2 musical dramas starting to be aired exactly at the same time. Using soccer and SW metaphors ( that, eventually could be qualified as out of topic ). So yes, i’m on the right thread.
But i can also post the mirror comment on DH2 page if you wish. Or is there specific threads and rules that i’m unaware of on this site for comments mentioning 2 dramas at the same time ? I’m just giving my two cents for people who maybe don’t have enough time to watch both and who want an advice to make their choice.
K dramas are loved by all kind of people because they know no boundaries and because they expend our minds and hearts. I’m glad to see that you like SUFBB, but i hope you’re also interested in what’s happening outside ( allegory’s of Plato’s cave here ).
No offense my friend, and have a nice day
February 3rd, 2012 at 8:37 pm
@Mystisith A thousand apologies for my mistake. I was preparing to launch an attack on your comment for the tone and sarcasm but I realized that it was my mistake after all. I thought you meant What’s Up and was comparing it to DH2. No offense but I do feel hurt by the Plato’s cave remark
February 3rd, 2012 at 9:35 pm
@ Zara Apologies accepted. I may have sharp tongue ( well
keyboard ) and i felt surprised at your first answer, but i don’ t bite.
Let’s forget about my last remark : I do love dramas AND philosophy, and i don’t mind mixing both apparently.
Going back to our topic, i can’t wait for the next episodes !
Here’s a link to a good fan MV i found on YT, enjoy !

I jus watch ep 2 and i dont get it does byunghee really die becoz thats just wierd!!!!!!!!!!!!
February 5th, 2012 at 2:44 pm
omg i love lee minki in here. why only a cameo )):
February 5th, 2012 at 11:22 pm
Lee Minki is the one who makes the difference in this drama so far! But his is only a cameo. Let’s see how the show goes without him…
February 6th, 2012 at 6:06 pm
Wow! Lee MK is da man!
February 7th, 2012 at 5:26 am
I just love this show!
It’s different from all korean high school dramas, which I’ve watched. funny and cool and sexy and at the same time… sad. great show. thanks!
February 7th, 2012 at 11:59 am
Oh my, what an amazing start! Love, love, love this drama! It has the right balance of attitude, angst and cuteness. It has great, nope, should be superb, acting especially by the LMK and SJ. IWhat’s more amazing – it is ridiculous yet realistic! How did they achieve that? I’m floored!
February 7th, 2012 at 4:55 pm
Well, if I may sum up my thoughts of this drama so far, it’ll be:
The first episode grabs you from the moment go,
The second episode causes you to explode with emotions, and
The third episode guts you to the very core…
How did a seemingly innocuous high school drama manage to do so much in so little time? Watch and you’ll find out…
February 8th, 2012 at 6:03 pm
@Mystisith Wow thx for the great vid. Really one for keeps for my ipod.
@jangerr It’s a drama that catches your attention immediately, doesn’t it?
Good that pay TV is coming out with dramas that has so much depths in more ways than one instead of churning out the same standard dramas. Love the play of reality tv by the pix man at times. As a KPop fan too, like the fact that music dramas are getting more attention and are generating more interest. What’s Up is another great surprise, which I love too. Reluctant to watch DH2 though because of not so good rating. Loved every minute of DH1 even though I was Suzy-Taekyeon shipper
February 8th, 2012 at 6:15 pm
@Zara
It certainly does. Thank goodness I decided to give it a try. I’m not a fan of high school dramas so have been steering clear of them. Always thought that they are fluff and have no depth but SUFBB has proven me wrong… Unfortunately DH2 is confirming my thoughts about such dramas… Anyway SUFBB is so good I’ll follow it and see…
February 8th, 2012 at 8:13 pm
watching episode 3. glad i decided to give this a go after reading a review on a blog. i like the way it was shot… it sort of exudes a jdrama feel. i always feel korean dramas are too lengthy and long-winded. so it’s nice that this drama is about 45 mins per episode. i hope all the guys get some limelight, not just on jihyuk.
February 9th, 2012 at 12:30 am
This drama is SERIOUSLY good! I’m loving every minute of it!
February 9th, 2012 at 8:24 am
Wow. I cannot believe the ridiculousness of this so-called series. They call this indie rock? This drama is not about music. Nope, it’s about exploiting pretty boys to get ratings from fangirls. And because they play in a “band”, it’s “real” music right, hmm, NOTHING like those plastic kpop groups. Haha, Cher’s face is more real than these kids.
Their instruments aren’t accessories, for god’s sake. I demand the precious time I spent to watch this piece of crap (excuse my french) back.
Admittedly, I did know that it was likely to be stupid. But there has been a rise in good indie bands on the scene lately, thanks to artists like Jaurim and Im Jae Beom appearing on the survival show I am a Singer. So I thought that maybe, just maybe, it might be something worth watching.
I was dead wrong.
If you plan on watching this for the so-called “music”, don’t even bother. Because if you’re looking for good music, you sure won’t find it here.

I’ve watched the first 3 eps n like the show as KD, not as a music video. Esp love the 1st 2 eps featuring Lee Min Ki. He is such fun to watch. Too bad it’s only a cameo.
The lead Sung Joon I had come across b4 in LTM. He plays the younger bro, n wasn’t impressive there. But this char seems to suit him more. I hope it continues to kick ass.
February 9th, 2012 at 5:40 pm
already watched 4 episodes with good subtitles…for those who want to watch it…just visit dramacrazyy.net..
so far…the boys are doing so good..
February 9th, 2012 at 7:00 pm
This show is my new crack. Just what i need now than What’s up ? is finished.
@ Vi : I respect your opinion, but sadly i think you’ll be in the minority. If this drama is not about music ( actually there is music in it and all the stakes are about music, so i suppose you watched only 10 mins of it ) then i don’t know what it’s about. I think the music rocks
( yeah, i said it ). Btw, can you give me the title of a good rock or music drama for you ? I’d be curious.
Those actors must have gone under the knife ? Or not. I don’t care. I don’t read tabloids or trash net sites, i watch dramas. If you want to see a drama with “ugly” musicians in it, i’ve got nothing against it. In fact it could be fun. A parody someone ? What i want is a good story with good acting to touch my heart. Here they do the job.
February 9th, 2012 at 9:01 pm
@Vi In case you haven’t noticed, this is a site for Kdramas. We like this mostly because of story, script and acting, not so much the music but if the music is good (which to most of us, it is), it’s a bonus. I would suggest you go to music videos instead of dramas for the Indie music that you like very much. Good Luck!
