I just got to share this. Dramaland has always been notorious for fake musical instrument playing. Instruments of crime are usually the piano and violin. Guilty genre – occasional music themed drama but the worst(PD: I don’t care!) is romance dramas.
Came across this hilarious TwoSet video where they(classically trained violinists and YTubers) tore apart this ‘so bad that it’s good’ scene from the recent Chinese remake Meteor Garden. I remember laughing so much at this scene during beanies’ rabbit watch. You don’t have to be a violinist to hear and see that Rei is doing it all wrong but it’s sure funnier to have these guys roast the scene.
Bonus – they actually played what it would really have sounded like if Rei played the violin the way he did and all the other bits.
I’m subscribed to their channel too! I saw this. Their takes on kpop are also fun and hilarious. I watch it to remind myself why I’m not a prifesdional musician. I’m just not that talented!!! 😂
LOL. I was going to say even the fake piano playing is bad. Violin is hard to fake, I’ll give actors that, but piano is super easy to fake. Come on! But when they did the real sounds at the end, they did take that into account.
I actually stopped watching Boys Over Flowers and Naeil’s Cantabile because I can’t watch the bad fake playing. The best fake playing ever was in Monstar, where most of the actors were actual musicians, and Kang Haneul *learned to play the cello* for the drama. He was fantastic. He wasn’t really playing, but he had the correct fingerings, bowings, shifts, vibrato, everything!

Yeah, I’m also reminded that I am not Ling Ling. Should have tried harder from the time I was 3 days old.

Oh my! I laughed so hard. I don’t play any instrument so I don’t notice these in detail. But the ‘clapping’ had me in splits!
Thanks for the share!
