Shut Up Flower Boy Band

If anyone told me, the drama that dragged me out of my drama funk would be the bizarrely-titled, teenybopper-marketed SUFBB, I would have laughed.

Yet, here we are - it is literally the only drama I am following. I even watched ep 3 raw!
I was worried that Lee Min Ki's departure was going to throw it all out of whack/cause me to lose interest, but that is not true, I am still loving it as much as ever. In fact, as of ep 3, my favorite character is Sung Joon' Ji Hyuk (whom I previously liked but who, like the rest, was overshadowed by LMK). I just want to give him...well, not a hug. What do broken, grieving, yet dependable rockers like?
SUFBB is oddly gritty for a kdrama, especially a teen-oriented one. Cable seems to be a very welcome change in kdramas. Actually, when I think what drama it makes me feel like, it's not a kdrama at all, but a jdrama - like Gokusen (the first one) or another one of those teen/issue jdramas. Or maybe a manga :)
I am still having a bit of an issue telling background guys apart. I mean, I adore Ji Hyuk and I can recognize Hyun Soo easily (if for no other reason than his looks and Infinite's insane fangirls). Plus, the drummer boy, Do Il is quite distinctive (and I adore him):

But the other two, I can only go 'short' and 'tall' yet. OK, drama, give me time.
Here is the preview for ep 4. Me = squeeeeeeeee.
Oh, and this is from ep 2, but too pretty not to post.
