Over the Rainbow is a South Korean television drama that aired on MBC from 2006 to 2007. The series stars Ji Hyeon-u, Seo Ji-hye, Hwanhee, and Kim Ok-vin in leading roles. The show revolves around three aspiring singers, who come together to form a boy band, and their journey to stardom.

The storyline of the show follows the lives of three young men, Kim Kyeon-woo (played by Ji Hyeon-u), Park Tae-hee (played by Hwanhee), and Rex (played by Kim Ok-vin). Kyeon-woo is an orphan who dreams of becoming a singer and songwriter. Tae-hee is a talented dancer who dreams of becoming a pop star, but he lacks the confidence to pursue his passion. Rex, on the other hand, is a free-spirited girl, who wants to break into the music industry and live life on her own terms.

The three characters meet by chance and decide to form a boy band called Over the Rainbow. However, things don't go quite as planned, as they face numerous challenges in their pursuit of fame and success. They must navigate the cut-throat music industry, deal with rival groups, and face personal struggles that threaten to tear their group apart.

The show's central themes include friendship, ambition, and the struggles of young aspiring artists. Through the characters' experiences, the show explores the ups and downs of trying to make it in the music industry, as well as the sacrifices and compromises that they must make along the way.

The cast of Over the Rainbow delivers outstanding performances, particularly Ji Hyeon-u, who gives a powerful portrayal of a young man desperate to escape his troubled past through music. Seo Ji-hye, who plays a love interest for Kyeon-woo, also delivers a strong performance, bringing depth and complexity to her character.

One of the highlights of the show is the music. Over the Rainbow features a number of original songs, which are catchy and well-produced. The show's musical performances are also very well-executed, with the actors showcasing their singing, dancing, and acting skills.

Overall, Over the Rainbow is a well-crafted drama that will appeal to fans of K-pop and those who enjoy character-driven stories. The show's talented cast and catchy music make it a standout series that is worth checking out.
