One response to “Review: Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol”
Heartwarming and loving. The main characters were so sweet, kept you wanting more. I liked the surprises about their past and how they met. Had similarities of the movie Chocolate, but more upbeat and they showed the relationship growing thru out. The ending was perfect, I didn’t want him to die, they both deserved each other and happiness. The writers could have had RaRa in denial of his death and have several clues of face cream appearing out of nowhere, plants being watered, suspecting Mother having no funeral, and the tea cup missing. This would have prepared us for the ending. RaRa innocence and optimism could have pulled it off, being in denial about his death and knowing one day he would return. This would have made it more realistic. But I was so glad he didn’t die, I didn’t care. I enjoyed this cute, loving movie. The cast was perfect, the music, the child prodigy and RARA & Jun. Thanks for a great series.
