The title of the Korean drama - Shining Watermelon - has a profound meaning. The name of the piano store in the drama is Viva Music, which comes from Viva La Vida, which is also the theme of the drama.

Viva La Vida was inspired by Chris Martin (lead singer of Coldplay) after seeing a painting by the twentieth-century Mexican artist Frida Kahlo - Viva La Vida.The name serves as the title of the song.In Spanish, "viva" means to applaud someone or something.

--Viva la vida, dandias. 1954) is said to be Frida Kahlo's last work. Watermelon is the symbol of Mexico's Day of the Dead (cutting the watermelon symbolizes death and is the symbol of life).completion of the cycle), she wrote her name on the pulp, along with “VIVA LA VIDA ” (Long Live Life) in capital letters!The coveted bright red symbolizes her intense life.

Cha Eun-jae's mother in the drama also drew this painting when she was in high school, and it was also the inspiration for the band's later name and uniforms.(The band’s original name was Made of First Love. In the latest episode, they changed their name to Watermelon Sugar because they were afraid that Yin Dongjin would find out that this band was the one who deceived him in the first place)

I can only say that I really don’t know the meaning of this drama title without relevant knowledge. I only found out through searching.

There is also this explanation:

The Korean word "수박" for watermelon is reversely pronounced as "박수" for clapping hands, and the sign language of clapping hands is exactly the same as the shining gesture, which is an interesting and ingenious way of naming."Watermelon" has appeared many times in the drama, including when Choi Se-kyung (played by Seol In-ah) met Ha Yi-chan (played by Choi Hyun-wook) for the first time and ordered "watermelon candy flavor" ice cream. The band formed by Ha Yi-chan is also called "Watermelon Sugar" band and so on.

Excellent directors, actors and all behind-the-scenes staff have devoted their efforts to create this work. I believe that Shining Watermelon will bring us more wonderful moments in the future.
