I took a five hour flight to Shanghai just to do a detail checkup on where this drama was filmed.

Anyway, I’m just joking. I just happened to pass by these few places and share these photos here.
Besides the photos, there’s one more thing that I’d like to share with you all:
The piano sheet of another song from this drama called “Half of the Love Song” (åŠæƒ…æŒ) by Yuan Ruo Lan (元若兰).
Half of the Love Song (åŠæƒ…æŒ) from You are My Destiny (命ä¸æ³¨å®šæˆ‘çˆ±ä½ ) Drama Piano Sheet Preview
This song is moderately slow and sentimental, or more precisely, it’s really sad. Even if you don’t understand the lyrics, you will just know that this is really a broken-hearted song.
About this piano sheet:
1) It’s in original key, i.e. Bb Major
2) Lyrics and chords are included
3) Fairly easy with simple chord progressions and harmonics.
I watched Coffee Prince 1st Shop more than 6 months before. Honestly, I don’t appreciate Yoon Eun-Hye boyish behaviour in this drama, but her acting is really so superb that I can’t find any similarity between this character and the naive princess’s in Goong.
Two months after I posted the piano sheet from this drama, a talented supporting actor passed away in an accident. He caught my attention and made me feel like watching his other dramas.
Too bad, it could never happen again.

That’s sad isn’t it?
Anyway, why this piano sheet? The truth is…

Someone requested for it lah. (Nothing exciting…)
If you’ve watched this drama before, this song is composed by Choi Han Sung (played by Lee Sun Gyun), Choi Han Kyul’s cousin (played by Gong Yoo).
Tearliner – Coffee Prince Piano Sheet Preview
There’s no chords and lyrics because it’s a pure piano instrumental song. The key is in A Major, 100% original. Difficulty is only 2.5 stars out of 5 stars. You can just practise lots of time and play it like a professional.
Good start! Joan Chen got pregnant after their “ahem” and the story circles around how they advanced from strangers to husband and wife, with another girlfriend and the baby between them, the love story gets a little complicated.
There are some funny settings in the episodes but I don’t favour all of them. Some of those are quite lame for me. Overall, this show will send another wave for drama lovers. Ethan Ruan is the Taiwanese version “Kwon Sang Wu” due to his ever ready teary eyes, handsome outlook, nice body figure (He was a swimmer) and most importantly, he is the best spokeman of the spoony character in this drama.
Out of many songs from this drama, my favourite one is “My Happiness” (我的快ä¹) by The Jin Xiu Duet (锦绣二é‡å”±). This song normally will be played at sad scenes and romantic scenes. It’s a triple Beat song that goes well with the step of Waltz.
I really like this song, it sounds a little tragic but romantic, the piano movement is similar to those Jazz in piano lounge. I can’t explain why I’ll become sentimental when I listen to it.
I believe many people out there are hunting for this song, here’s one for you!
Facts about the piano sheet:
1) It’s in original key, A Minor (No accidentals, but some sharps due to the melodic Minor)
2) 3 beats, remember to focus on the bass. If not others can’t dance with it ok?
3) Lyrics and chords included
4) The melody and accompaniment are separated. You can choose which one to play, or you can re-design the whole sheet on your own
5) Oh, I hope you can pass through some difficult parts. There are Appregios, Chromatic Scales, Octaves, Dotted Quavers and a solo! Without this, this song will not be as nice as it is…
So…do practise and I hope you can play like him
Lastly, the download link (å°æ¹¾å¶åƒå‰§å‘½ä¸æ³¨å®šæˆ‘çˆ±ä½ é’¢ç´è°±ä¸‹è½½):
There are several requests for the piano sheet of this song, some even asked for the MP3. Some of them are inquiring the availability of River Waltz’s sheet music in the market. Till then, I was not sure how River Waltz sounds like, until…
Nan posted this link in his comment:
Therefore, my first hand source of this music is from this video.
River Waltz (The Painted Veil Theme) Piano Sheet Preview
If you like The Painted Veil/ the music in this video/ Waltz, there’s no reason you’ll dislike this piano sheet. I’ve tried to keep to its originality, i.e. the same key C Major and without accidentals. This is a pure instrumental music, therefore there’s no lyrics in the sheet music. Nope, no chords as well because it is a piano piece.
I’ll recommend you to check on the video before playing, you’ll definitely know how this piano sheet sounds like, if you play like this piano Guru in this video.
You see har, Ah Doe is trying to be multi-national in her piano sheets collection.
Got English Songs, Chinese Songs, Malay Songs, Japanese Songs, Korean Songs…
And today…what a breakthrough! We have Hokkien Song Piano Sheet!!!
If you have watched Money Not Enough 2, heed my advice: Bring more tissue papers… Be it the laughters or the tears, just bring more ok?
Although the movie plot is kinda exaggerating, the values behind it is worth pondering. It’s funny, but more realistic compared to the first episode. At least it’s not a movie which you just “Hahaha” in the cinema and walk out from it with not much inputs.
This song is sung by Hokkien Diva Jiang Hui “江蕙”, named å®¶åŽ or “Dearest Kin” by translation. My advice to you, read and understand the lyrics before listening to the original song:
When we are old with no one else beside us,
We will sit on the couch and listen to your adventurous stories when you were young,
It doesn’t matter on what we eat and I won’t complain,
I will hold your hands tightly,
because I am your dearest kin.
Chorus
I married you at my prime and followed you since then,
Seen through lots of things,
Who else can be more important than you?
I dedicate my whole life to you,
and realize that happiness is leading a cat and dog life.
When our time is up,
I’ll let you go ahead of me because…
I can’t bear to see you cry for me.
When we are old with sons and their wives,
Let’s recall how handsome you were while looking at our wedding photo if you are bored,
It doesn’t matter on what we wear and I won’t complain,
I will always put you in my heart,
because I am your dearest kin.
And finally, the piano sheet:
Dearest Kin, å®¶åŽ (Money Not Enough 2 Theme) Piano Sheet Preview
This piano sheet is designed at its original key, i.e: C Major. This is the first music score with plenty of ornaments. If you know Hokkien songs, ornaments really plays important role when a verse is spread through multiple notes!
Erm? What else? Chords and lyrics are included as well…
