Let Me Hear Your Song: Episodes 5-8 Open Thread
by missvictrix
This drama might be all over the place, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have a solid plan. Piece by piece we get a better picture of what’s at stake for our heroine — all thanks to how our hero is manipulating her with his I-know-what-you-did-last-summer torment.
EPISODES 5-8 WEECAP
Our adorable heroine Yi-young winds up in the hospital after her jog up Namsan with Jang Yoon, and we learn a lot about her past in this week’s episodes. First, we hear the story from her sister-like cousin, HONG SOO-YOUNG (Lee Shi-won). Then, later, Yi-young herself tells Yoon about her tragic past: that her parents died in a car accident when she was five, after which she exhibited both aphasia and insomnia.
Interestingly (and perhaps importantly?) none of the memories of Yi-young’s past are really her own. She can’t remember any of it; rather, she’s just repeating what she has been told. Either way, it’s more than clear that the car accident/murder she was involved in last summer was an echo of what she experienced as a small child. It explains why her insomnia, nightmares, and dissociative amnesia have returned.
The most unsettling part of the story to me thus far is not the mystery around last summer, but the fact that everyone around Yi-young seems to know so much more about her than she does. From Soo-young, to Maestro Nam, to the frenemy violinist Ha Eun-joo — they all know more about what happened last summer than our heroine does.
And so does Jang Yoon, who is still completely two-faced. One second he’s charming and flirty around Yi-young and even bandages a cut on her foot — the next he’s setting off her subconscious by bringing her places (Namsan) or repeating lines (“Let’s ride the cable car tomorrow!”) that give her such psychic overload that she passes out.
Yi-young might think he’s a) stalking her, or b) romantically interested in her, but we learn that he’s really just sussing her out, at least for now. All his tests and tricks were to confirm the fact that she really doesn’t remember what happened last summer. He believes her, but can’t seem to stay away regardless.
He tells her things like, “I want to know more about you. Things that other people don’t,” and he might not mean it the way we think he does, but he’s got Yi-young swooning (and me too) to the point where, after they go on an evening walk, Yi-young asks if she can kiss him. Hah, I just love her.
He doesn’t have a problem obliging her, and wow it’s early in the show for a lead couple kiss scene, so I’m interested to learn where the drama will take them from here. Right now they are clearly attracted to each other, but their relationship is built solely on Yoon’s “investigation,” and not on any real closeness that they share (yet?). While I don’t like how he has wormed his way into her life, I don’t completely mistrust him, and I have a feeling he’ll realize her innocence before long (and hopefully wind up her biggest champion). Plus, he keeps playing my favorite Chopin Nocturne, so he can’t be all bad.
The memories that Yi-young has buried from last summer contain a death, and that death is confirmed to be Kim Ian, Yoon’s younger brother — also a Chopin-loving pianist. Though Yi-young’s memory is highly reactive every time she sees Kim Ian’s photo, she’s not able to place him yet. However, we learn he’s definitely the young man with the unique ring we keep seeing in flashbacks.
Mystery and wrongful death vibes are running high, even though Yoon says it was simply a car accident. We’re also led to believe Yi-young and Kim Ian were dating, which is why Yoon blames her for his death. “He was murdered by someone he loved,” Yoon tells her.
Just when it looks like we might have found some level ground with who’s who and what’s at stake, the drama chucks in some big reveals. You know, to give us horrible cliffhangers to hold onto all week. First, we have Eun-joo who, when not creating mayhem or defending true musicians, is on a mission to expose Yoon. Just who is Jang Yoon? Eun-joo insist his name is as false as his resume, but we don’t learn much more than that before the episode break.
Worse than that is the fact that Maestro Nam might be involved in last summer’s mysterious death as well. Thus far he’s been half mentor and half cheeky romantic interest to Yi-young. He might have fired her as the orchestra’s second percussionist after day one, but then he hires her as a personal assistant, takes her out to dinner, and is forever poking his head into doorways looking for her.
Needless to say, it was quite the shock when we get a juicy flashback of Kim Ian bleeding out in the road, and a tall nefarious figure in black standing over him. He pulls off his mask in the pouring rain, and yep, it’s Maestro Nam. Noooooo!
Cliffhangers and reveals aside, I can’t end without again mentioning the music in Let Me Hear Your Song. I loved what they did during the premiere week, and they’ve kept it up with a phenomenal use of classical pieces throughout the drama.
Satie during a fancy dinner, Khachaturian’s famous Sabre Dance when Yi-young chases a purse-stealing thief, and a gorgeous performance of Rimky-Korsakov as Maestro Nam leads the Shinyoung Orchestra in an outdoor practice. And even more than just incorporating great music, the drama makes room for the music. It gives us the space to listen and enjoy it — kind of like I’m doing with this entire drama so far.

I'm creeper out by the romance. I love the drama. These two contradictory emotions drive how I feel about what I'm seeing on my screen haha.
The female lead did open the show with "I promise you, the story I'm about to tell is not a love story" - and perhaps the early, creepy kiss is a sign of just that.

Okay, if we're going to "throw theories into the wind like confetti..." then here's another one: If Lee Ian was killed by someone he loved, maybe that loved person was Maestro Nam (since we see him in the rain beside Ian's body anyway). Maybe the relationships tangle that way as well and maybe the Maestro is also spending time with our lead lady to see what she remembers about that night, same as Yoon. I admit, this has more questions for me so far than it does answers.

I think the drama is setting us up to suspect Maestro as a bad guy, but to be so revealing of this so early, makes me think no. He's obviously involved in the situation, and is being a creeper right now, but I don't believe he's the murderer. Unless he did it to protect someone because Kim Ian was not a good guy.

Or maybe, Maestro Nam and Jang Yoon are in cahoots trying to get Yi Young to remember who killed Ian? That would explain why she suddenly got the job of her dreams (after messing up her audition) just to get fired one day later, just to get rehired as an assistant. That would also explain how Nam hired a new pianist seemingly out of nowhere and someone without the expected credential. Giving Yoon an excuse to spend time with his brother's supposed murderer and see if she remembers anything.

If I thought a kdrama would go in that direction I would suspect Maestro to have been Kim Ian's love too.
Or maybe that actor just stares at everyone so intently.

Yup - but the kiss was creepy. 1. he's a stalker; 2. she is supposedly his brother's ex-girlfriend; and his suspected killer lol.
I tried to rationalise the kiss by thinking that the show is misleading us - maybe she was actually dating Jang Yoon before Kim Ian died? That's why Yoon accepted her request for a kiss; and went for it with much "longing".

She said right before it [the kiss] that she gets vulnerable when she talks about her past and tends to get "weak" aka rebound: this kiss was a rebound comfort thing.
Messed up and dysfunctional definitely, because she comes cross as slightly insane sometimes with no boundaries and no impulse control and he is Goodness Knows What Really (although we're being misdirected with him hard core imo), but (despite the romantic music) I think it's supposed to be a messed up kiss. Like I don't think we're supposed to be 100% onboard with this relationship, I don't think the show is telling us it's healthy either but we also can't look away, because wow trainwrecks are so pretty when they explode.

After finishing episodes 5-6, I’m surprised to see an actor that I haven’t seen in a show for a couple years. Actually, has he been in anything since 2014? And how does he look exactly the same? I’m, of course, talking about Kim Shi-hoo, who plays Kim Ian, the ill-fated brother. I last saw him in Love Rain, and really liked him there as the best friend to Jang Geun-suk’s character. He has such a natural feel to his acting and a warm smile that really translates well on screen. I’ve been wondering what happened to him and just assumed he went into another career (like Won Bin). I’m really sad his character died now! I’m way more emotionally invested in this show now that he’s in it! Funny how a minor actor/character can do that.
Also, for @egads, while looking up where Kim Shi-hoo has been the last 5 years, I found out who our lovely-to-look-at timpanist is. His name is Yoo Gun, and he was apparently born in ARIZONA. He’s now a Koran citizen and did his two year military service and everything! Viki says he gave up his American citizenship to take his Korean one.
So, I was worried that Chopin’s Posthumous Nocturne in C# minor was going to be overplayed in this. But glad to see the maestro was only watching a video of Ian playing it this last episode. Please don’t overplay this song, show! Jaebal! I went back to my own piano and played it this week. As a teenager, it was this song and Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata that brought me through crushed crushes and teenaged angst! It was the soundtrack to my life for a couple years! 😆

I'm extremely confused by Jang Yoon's approach to finding out more about his brother's murder. You wanna to find out who the killer was? Fair. You wanna get close to the woman who is either the only witness of the murder or the possible murderer? Fine. You want to see if you can jug her memory? Ok. But the way he go about is incredibly perplexing. He's being strangely seductive with her, while at the same time insisting he's not interested in her "in that way" and is moving in the apartment below her in the hope that... what, she's going to just wake up one day and confess to him? If she IS the murderer and is playing innocent, how does he think his being around is going to push her to admit her guilt? And if he does believe that she forgot anything, is he just hoping that alluding to the murder without giving her any details is really going to be enough to shake her from the trauma? She's lost three months worth of memory and he thinks taking her jogging is the solution? I want to believe that he was trying to manipulate her and fell into his own trap of dark attraction but I still fail to see the logic in setting up the trap in the first place.

I have to admit I'm still a bit confused on how Maestro Nam , Eun-joo, and Yi-young all know each other? Is it from having all been students at the same school?
I'm conflicted. I really like the 3 main characters that surround our heroine and so do not want one of them to be a murderer, but if it is not one of them does that lower the stakes of the story and dilute it? I need more suspects.
That piece they played in the out door theater was so beautiful.

I'm also kind of suspecting Maestro Nam as the "someone he loved" person regarding the death of Kim Ian. Maestro Nam wears the same ring we saw Kim Ian wearing the night of the incident. .... Granted, two people wearing the same style of jewelry doesn't necessarily mean they are in a relationship but it's still a possibility that can't yet be discounted at this point.

This show’s genre feels all over the place but am enjoying it. Am curious about the circumstances of the murder but I wonder what was the investigation results. This Jang creeper guy stole the murder weapon and stopped the investigation? What did the cops find. Did they close the case without a suspect?
How does Jang know he was killed by his girl friend.
I bet there is some personal diary of Ian that he read and is enacting scenes from it.

I am glad to see an active discussion of this show. After watching the first episode without paying careful attention I was close to writing it off but getting back to it a little later, I realized what was going on and went back and watched carefully. At this point I am all in, simply because I love that the audience is involved in figuring out what happened to Kim Ian.
I think that the murderer is the Maestro and the violinist knows about it, which is the hold she has over him. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Maestro is gay or bisexual, and Ian possibly too. It hadn’t occurred to me that perhaps Jang Youn was the boyfriend instead of Kim Ian, but it’s certainly possible.
As far as creepy/manipulative male leads (at least in the beginning of the show), it really isn’t all that new.,.Secret, Hotel King, Nice Guy, Come and Hug Me, and the two similar plot plastic surgery shows from a few months back. And those were shows with happy endings, so it’s possible this one will have one too. But if that’s the case, later there will be much groveling and/or having to prove themselves worthy of the heroine’s love.

August 15, 2019 at 8:46 AM
I feel like what makes it creepier than dramas like Secret / Nice Guy (etc...) is the fact that everything looks like a basic rom-com ? Except you know it's not ? Or at least it's not supposed to, since she warned us it's not a love story. It's honestly on the cute and fun side, but you know that you're not supposed to enjoy it, because what's happening is definitely not a cute love story.
Idk, I think that's why i find it creepy.
And i agree with what you said about enjoying the fact audience needs to figure out what happened to Ian too. Kdramas tend to give away the answer too early, while we have to watch for many episodes the lead trying to figure it out. It's nice to be able to participate in the reflexion.

So true. It's like Yi-young is in a rom-com while everyone else is in a murder mystery/thriller. Everything seems creepier since the female lead has no idea anything is even off under the surface, and the tone reflects that. Although the show gives of a really odd vibe, the tonal dissonance is also making it more interesting for me than it would be otherwise.

I’m glad to see that actor back on my screen, but could they have picked someone I don’t already have a soft spot for? (See my comment above.)

@egads Oh! I like this. This version wouldn't be half bad at all.

Oh please no I don't actually think I could handle that again after The Light In Your Eyes and yes I know I'm the odd one out for saying that...
*muchas gracias*

It's super weird, isn't it? And yet I still sort of like it, despite finding it a confusing and mildly frustrating viewing experience.

I don't know with this drama. Like I really don't. I like all of the characters. They're all very interesting and likable. And I really like the strange hodge-podge of a genre mash-up the story is. But I hate everyone's behavior. The female lead is....well, she's dense. I mean, who keeps hanging out with someone who acts the way the male lead does, this weird hot and cold, really scary-intense then flirty and jokey with just a hint of some 'I like to trigger your repressed memories every time we hang out which is obviously on purpose but you're too dumb to figure it out'? And what's with the male lead's behavior anyway? He has no subtly whatsoever, not a millimeter of chill. He's either all over her like an ant on an ice cream cone or he's glaring into her eyes like he's holding a knife behind his back. Bro. Pick a lane. Then we have the secondary male lead who hires her for his orchestra, seemingly unbothered by an audition mistake that would have disqualified her with anyone else and then he FIRES HER FOR MAKING THE SAME MISTAKE AFTER ONLY GIVING HER ONE REHEARSAL TO GET TO USED TO BEING PART OF THE NEW TEAM AND HE DOES IT IN FRONT OF LITERALLY EVERYONE WHICH IS PROBABLY THE MOST HUMILIATING THING POSSIBLE. THEN HE HIRES HER AS HIS ASSISTANT! I! CAN'T! EVEN! WITHYOU!!!!!
Our quasi-second female lead is pretty inconsistent in her own right, but she's not on-screen enough for it to heavily impact the story.
I just don't know with this drama, and I think I'm gonna have to just make peace with it, lol.

It's funny because the behavior that is frustrating you is what I find so compelling. I don't want them to pick a lane yet it wouldn't be as interesting, lol. I want to keep this guessing game up for awhile longer.

Same. I like the inconsistencies of everyone's behavior. I like not knowing how this is going to play out, and I really like being suspicious of everyone. Like somebody said earlier, it is like Clue:
The maestro wacked him in the field with his baton.
The lead timpanist hit him the road with a mallot.
The oboist stabbed him in the car with her reed knife.

Oh, that is a good comparison.
It was reminding me of a gothic , but with random noir lighting thrown in.
