Storyline

As in so many of the latest Korean drama series, Beautiful Days involves conflicts in family relationships, as well as a love triangle. The main character played by Lee Byung-Hun as Lee Min Chul, has returned from studying in the USA, to take an active role in his father's prospering music business.

The location used "Tower Records" in Sinchon, (near Sinchon Station), Seoul - now "Shinara Records" - as 'Victory Records', the headquarters of this fictional family's music business.

It turns out that the father was involved in unethical practice in the past, as well as murdering the father of Min Chul's step-brother, San Jae. Into the scene comes two orphanage girls, YeonSoo and Sena, whom share a sisterly bond. This is also where Sena became inspired to become a popstar after a visit during their childhood of the Victory Records boss on a charity event. Both girls arrive in Seoul to start their adult lives, and become involved in the lives of the step-brothers, Min Chul and San Jae. A complex drama unfolds, with the love of the main characters threatened by a terminal illness.

The original script had intended that the character of Yeon Soo would die, but in response to a flood of protest letters from anguished viewers, the drama lets her live. Sena goes on to become a famous popstar.
