Beethoven Virus
Beethoven Virus/ 베토벤 바이러스 ** (Korean)
18 episodes
Kim Young Min as Jung Myung Hwan
Some very nice classical pieces, with a bit, however unresolved (was it one-sided?), romance to fill in the cracks of this story. I enjoyed how each of the characters got to tell a bit of their own stories within context of all the goings-on milling around the main plot. oh and Grampa is in it too!! (wish I had a grandfather like this guy.. even when he's playing a bad-guy.. he's really good! XD)
A lady/violinist, trying not to lose her job, organizes a concert.. but then almost immediately, disaster strikes and she finds herself scrambling for members before the conductor arrives. Its just the beginning of trouble though, for the conductor is none-other then the 'orchestra killer' a man infamous for his poisonous ill-tempered demeanor... and he isn't terribly pleased to discover he's responsible for such a hodge-podge group of players from common everyday life.
