The music that Hak Kyu (Lee Bong Geun) and Dae Bong (Park Chul Min) produce is full of excitement. “Fallen Yangban” (Kim Dong Wan), who gets the crowd going, captivates everyone watching the performance.
Also, charismatic Kim Jun (Kim Min Joon) and tearful Gan Nan (Lee Yoo Ri) leave a strong impression. The music, which is presented with a dramatic narrative, is full of excitement, but sometimes the mournful voices are mixed in, touching the hearts of the viewers.
