SETTV's Autumn's Concerto started airing on October 4, 2009 and rumored to have 20 episodes. Ady An and Van Ness Wu star in the Taiwanese drama that has viewers crying their eyes out and begging for more. This drama revolves around love and family that brings smiles and tears to us all.
Opening Song: I Love Him "Wo Ai Ta" - Ding Dang
Closing Song: Suddenly Want To Love You "Tu Ran Xiang Ai Ni" Ding Dang & Emil Chau
Description: Two young lovers, Ren Guang Xi and Liang Mu Chen, are seperated due to an unwilling mother. Six years later after a brain surgery, Guang Xi has lost his memory and the only woman in his life is the kind nurse that took care of him. Mu Chen is a hardworking single mother in a flower field. The child is Guang Xi's.
Review: I came across this drama by trying to find Easy Fortune Happy Life and I'm very glad that I did. This is pretty much my all time favorite drama. At first I thought it would be one of "those dramas" that revolve around the life of young lovers but it's so much more. It's more mature and focuses on family more than anything. It airs every Sunday and the week's wait kills me! I don't want Autumn's Concerto to come to an end but I really want to know the outcome. I hope it's a happy ending because they've gone through so much. I really reccomend for Idol Drama fans. It was simply amazing.

SPOILERS AHEAD
Rainie's Drama Diary
(New name as I think of one.)
Day One- Well I watched episode 1 today. I came across this drama while searching for the drama Lotus Rain. Then I came across Easy Fortune Happy Life which led to Autumn's Concerto. I watched the trailer and read a summary and I was intrigued. After watching the first few minutes of episode 1, I was hooked. The beginnning was really sad and that creepy pevert creeps me out. I have a feeling that Mu Chen is going to owe flower guy a lot in the future when she's with Guang Xi because it's obvious that he really cares about her. I love the opening theme song and the ending sequence. I can't wait for the kid to appear! He seems so adorable. So I'm assuming that there's going to be a time jump...
Day Two-Five- I watched episodes 2-12 and forgot to blog. (Sorry!) Well from memory, I can tell you that it was really good. Tiffany Hsu one again plays the "other girl". She looks prettier in this drama though and her character is really sweet. I want to punch all those mean students when the pictures of her uncle attacking her leaked out. They were so !#$% rude. When Mu Cheng was leaving though, it was so sad. That stupid pervert had to stab Guang Xi too. AUGH. So sad that he's lost his memory too. And wow. Snaps for Tiffany (forgot her character's name). She stayed with him for six years. Guang Xi owes a lot to her. But she still hid his past from him so she wasn't that great. Same for the flower guy though. (Huao Tuo Ye? I forgot his name as well...) I feel sorry for him. :/ And awww, Xiao Le is just too cute. So sad yet adorable when Xiao Le called Guang Xi daddy. There were just so many touching moments in this drama but I can't recall all of them. (D*mmit.) I promise you though, it was great.
Day Six- EPISODE 13 today and AHHH! Xiao Le is amazing. So sad. I love him. He's hands down my favorite character.
Day Seven- EPISODE 14 today and it was amazing!!! Guang Xi FINALLY got his memory back. So sad that he hates Mu Chen now though. Why can't !@#$%^& just tell Guang Xi the !@#$%^& truth? Why can't she just tell him that she stilll !@#$%^& love him? Mind my language but I'm just pissed off. I feel sad for Tiffany. Hopefully she will find happiness. Same goes with flower dude. Yay for Xiao Le (& Mu Cheng) though. He (& she) finally got Guang Xi into his (& back into her) life.
Day Eight- EPISODE 15 today and I'm kind of pissed. Well the first is because of the episode. Mu Cheng is being stupid. I just want to slap her so she can wake up and tell Guang Xi the truth. Xiao Le is so adorable. He's a really good son, especially when he didn't believe that Guang Xi was his dad. Mu Cheng raised him well. (Lol.) I'm kinda glad that Guang Xi is forcing her to marry him though. But I have a feeling that he's going to treat her like sh*t now that he's back to his original self and not the sweet Guang Xi or the lawyer one. He's back to the Guang Xi from the beginning. I liked that Guang Xi though... just saying. Anyways, the second reason why I'm pissed is that I came across the english translated novel of Autumn's Concerto. I was so excited to read it but it left me hanging because the translator didn't finish. I'm not pissed at them, there's no reason for me to be and it would be wrong for me to be mad at them. I'm very thankful that they put it up. I'm pissed at the story so far because Guang Xi does treat her bad. Ugh. Hopefully they will fall in love again, or else Xiao Le is going to be the most hurt of them all.
AUTUMN'S CONCERTO NOVEL ENGLISH TRANSLATION HERE:
Thank you Min for translating!
Day Nine- I told myself the same thing I told myself when Hi My Sweetheart episode 12 came out. (And for episode 13.) I WILL NOT WATCH IT UNTIL THERE ARE ENGLISH SUBTITLES. Of course, I couln't resist and went along and watched episode 16 of Autumn's Concerto. I feel so sad for the flower dude (Hua Tuo Ye). Hopefully he and that other girl (the one his mom wants him to be with) will end up together. I missed a lot of parts though due to my slow computer and impatience. Lol when Guang Xi caught Mu Chen touching his suit. Sad when they were on the bed and she was crying. :/ Anyways, I kinda thought this episode was boring. Mostly it was because I didn't understand half of what was going on. That evil mother though with that evil little kid. How dare he push Xiao LE. Hmph. Omg the preview. Xiao Le and his grandma was adorable. I'm glad that she's warming up to him. But the one girl who was the rape victim of Guang Xi's client in the beginning in episode 6(?) I think, !@#$%^& stabbed Mu Chen when trying to stab Guang Xi. That bitch. (No I will not * out anything.) Yeah I know, she has the right to hate Guang Xi but to !@#$%^& stab him?! And then get Mu Chen instead? WTF. Anyways, next episode looks good!
Day Ten- Episode 17 today! OMG. He's naked!!!! Who? Well the adorable Xiao Le of course. Mu Chen was giving him a bath. Who did you think... ^_^ Anyways, Xioa Le seriously gets cuter by the second!So sad that flower dude got his hand cut off. Hopefully they only injured his hand and not cut it off. I cried a lot since he has to be my favorite character after Xiao Le. (Mu Chen belongs with Guang Xi though. Sorry Tuo Ye but Zhi Xin has always been there and will always be there for him.) One of the saddest endings of Autumn's episodes ever. F*ck Fan Ge. I hate him so much. Ugh. Preview for episode 18 though looks verrrrry interesting. Hahaha, when Guang Xi helped Mu Chen take her shirt off he peeked. Bad Guang Xi! ^_^ Ahhhh, that one girl is back. The ex girlfriend Guang Xi was with when he first met Mu Chen. The one who technically brought them together. And I believe she brings them closer next episode too. ^_^ Oh, the dress Mu Chen is wearing (white with a black belt) is cute. Random but just had to put that out there. Is this the last episode though? All of the previews and such appear in the preview for episode 18? Like the kiss by the poolside and Xiao Le with his grandmother. This means only three things: 1- Episode 18 is the last episode and everyone else got it wrong. (Like how everyone though Hi My Sweetheart only had 13 episodes.) 2- Something sad happens that breaks them apart for two episodes and brings them back together. Or 3- The last few episodes are going to be slow. I'm personally hoping that it's option 2. ^_^
Day Eleven- Well I can only find two parts of episode 18 with subtitles and I couldn't resist. Guang Xi is hilarious! He peeks at her when helping her undress, that made ma laugh. Ugh, I feel so sad for flower guy though, and his mother. Random but I'm rewatching Autumn's Concerto. Don't ask why, I just felt like it. Anyways, poor Guang Xi, he's jealous but he's so cold to Mu Chen. AUGH! I believe this is the episode where they get close though so I can't wait! :] Xiao Le is the second cutest little boy I've ever seen! The first has to be the kid from Feng Yun, haha. But Xiae Le gives him a run for his money so idk. Well I watched the rest of the drama without subtitles so it's kind of fuzzy but I got the main idea, at least I hope I did. Alice (the ex-girlfriend) turned pretty. Random but yeah. Hahaha, I love how Guang Xi is loving every moment of Mu Chen's jealousy. I think this might be one of the best episodes. :] Xiao Le and his grandma are adorable. Mostly it's Xiao Le haha. This drama just keeps on amazing me. It's wonderful. I can't believe it wasn't my number one for a while. Not that Hi My Sweetheart is a bad drama, but it just wasn't as good as Autumn's Concerto. But honestly, this drama is amazing. I can see the ending coming closer and I'm sure it's going to be a good one. Preview looks good, it's slowly wrapping up. :((((((((((((( That makes me sad because I don't want Autumn's Concerto to end.
Day Twelve- So I finally watched episode 19 today. Yeah, finally. I've been putting if off for a while because I didn't want AC to end. The beginning went from happy and touching to sad. Extremely depressing and sad. Poor Tuo Ye and Zhi Xin. I absolutely hate the f*cking gangster. He should !@#$%^. So sad and intense that I was sobbing so much. Why hasn't this drama beat Fated To Love You?! I mean FTLY was great and AC is just simply amazing. Vanness has gotten very good as an actor and popular. After watching Meteor Garden it's so strange seeing him in Autumn's Concerto. Ugh. Fan Ge deserved what he got. No I take that back.. no one deserves to die but HE WAS PUSHING IT! Why couldn't Mu Chen just tell him the truth earlier?? This drama is depressing. Everyone in the drama has such troubling experiences they have gone through. Even Xiao Le but he always can put a smile on our faces. :] Can't wait until episode 20. I heard episode 21 is going to be longer than usual so something big's going to happen pretty soon... Hopefully they will find happiness. :] Or else I will...hate this drama.
