You take a cheerful girl who after a traumatic incident early in her life becomes a loner who does not talk to anyone. Then you create a foil of a character who is a genius in music. Have him stop playing music due to gasp, another traumatic incident. We then make the hottest girl in the class who has the feels for above loner. Thats all? Wait we need more, oh yeah, lets add in a guy whos like the sport champ. Lets throw all these people into a club or something so they have a reason to be seen together. Since we need some tension, lets make it so that they were put into the club against their will.
Ok, so these guys have nothing in common, how can we make them connect to each other? Lets just make the main character's struggles resonate with all of them. That sounds good. Hmm.. what next? Plot? Well we put them into a club, so lets make it a cultural festival the club is preparing for. Character growth? Lets make everyone traumatized by something and seeing the MC's struggles everyone else opens up. To make things interesting, lets just make all the parents of the children either total assholes or absolutely useless. Yes looking good. This will make a fine movie.. wait drama? Ok, just when things are going really, really well, lets add in a twist and make the MC lose all hope and regress into her previous state again. This will nicely setup into a touching and dramatic scene where the MC and her love interest learn what its like to depend on others and grow as people.
Some tears will be shed and some feels will be felt and it will be glorious.
So why 7/10. Well its more 6.5/10 than a 7. The movie is formulaic to a fault, but it looks good, sounds good and is directed well. Seeing the main character Jun overcome her fear is done well. The ending is a little eh for me but whatever. Enjoyed the two hrs it look to watch this film and did not regret it.
