The conversation between the five is always delightful and interesting. In the third episode, Jun Wan says, “I’m good at singing this song. I’ve made several cry as I sang this,” as he listens to “AROHA.” Then there’s the ‘Tiki-Taka’ of conversation between them: “That’s right. In Hawaii,” “Hawaii?,” “What?,” “Why?,” “Something happened in Hawaii,” “Of course.” Jung Kyung Ho said, “I think we can feel the depth of the friendship among the five who seem to strangely resemble each other even though they have completely different characteristics.”

 

Kim Dae Myung �” First Meeting at the Warehouse in Episode 1

“I think it is a special scene where the history of their friendship began and the opportunity that kept the five together so far,” said Kim Dae Myung, citing the accidental first meeting of the five freshmen. This scene depicted five freshmen, who left the site of orientation for the same reason, gather coincidentally in a warehouse. It was the moment when their 20-years long friendship began, increasing the level of immersion for the viewers.

 

Jeon Mi Do �” ‘Variations on the Kanon’ Ensemble in Episode 4

The scene where the five get together to play “Variations on the Kanon” surprised the viewers, drawing keen attention. It started as Suk Hyung chose Kanon, the only song he could play till the end, to be the first song for them to play together after the formation of the band in the past. The continued scene of them struggling to learn the music caught the eye. Jeon Mi Do said, “We prepared for about three months. It was the hardest work, but I felt good as I watched the scene aired, since I remembered the process of practicing together for a long time. The result clearly shows the chemistry and the passion of the five friends so I think it will remain in my memory.”
