BROWN SUGAR MACCHIATO
Six boys with different personalities and backgrounds are notified that they share the same father. On top of that, they are entitled to a huge inheritance. However, there is only one catch: they must attend the same school and live together in the same house for a year. In the end, they become from total strangers to close brothers, as well as making themselves adaptable to the changes in their life.
However, the six brothers not only have to deal with their uneasiness and dislike for one another, but also everything the ten mean girls (Da Ya, Gui Gui, Ya Tou, Tong Tong, Xiao Xun, Xiao Man, Apple, Mei Mei, Xiao Jie and Ke En) would do to make their school days a living hell for them. Unknown to the other nine girls, Ya Tou is actually the housekeeper of the brothers' mansion.
To add to their stress, someone is after their inheritance, trying to make them break their contract, and is sending people to their school to do so.
Meanwhile, love blossoms among the brothers and their classmates.
Will the brothers band together and successfully pass the inheritance test? Or, will falling in love with their classmates pull them farther apart?

The second brother. Calm, smart, and elegant. He tends to act cold in front of everybody.

He takes admiration in Xiao Xun, who shares his personalities and intelligence, but ends up dating the mischievous Gui Gui!
Xiao Yu (Fabien)
The third brother. His passion for music is the only thing that matters to him, and is therefore in no interest of inheriting his father's money. He has a crush on the class' smartest girl, Xiao Xun, but she despises him for his ignorance. At the same time, he becomes friends with another girl named Mei Mei. After he saves Xiao Xun from a gang of mobsters, her heart is won by him.

Their names often cause confusions.
Wei Lian (William)
The fifth brother. Naive and kind, but lacks brain cells. His hobby involves bicycling. Wei Lian has a crush on Rong Jia, who is one older year than him. Though she looks at him as a little brother at first, he eventually wins her heart with his naivety.
Ah-Wei (Wayne)
The youngest brother. Dancer and energetic and hip-hop is his favorite. Of all the brothers, he is the most nonexistent one. Because he and Xiao Jie have a crush on their housekeeper. Ya Tou, they would constantly fight for her heart. He usually pays more attention to Ya Tou even when he is among beautiful girls and is usually more helpful to her than the other brothers. After Xiao Jie begins a relationship with Xiao Jie (a girl student), he seized his chance to confess to Ya Tou.

She was furious to find out the truth the hard way and broke up with Ao Quan. However, they reconcile after a while.

Of all the girls in class, she is the only one who knows of Ya Tou's secret identity and her relation to the brothers.She has been in love with Wang Zi since their first encounter.

It was through this experience that Wang Zi confesses his feelings to her and they become a couple.

Mei Mei
Tong Tong's best friend. She has a crush on musician Xiao Yu, but because he likes Xiao Xun, she is torn between happiness and sorrow. In the end, she decides to let him go and help them get together, and is finally able to move on. Aside from being her friend, she is also his supportive manager.
Xiao Xun (Albee)
The smartest girl in the class. Her personality resembles much of Wang Zi's, and because of that, they often spend time together.

Brown Sugar Macchiato was introduced to me by
my high school classmate Kristine Louise Tud,
that's why i'm very grateful to her that she shared it to
me. hahaha :))) coz i never expected that this
series is very fun to watch. yay!:)
it is very comical and has lovable characters,
and i also realized that the names they were
using in the series was their true name. hahaha :)))
i'm lovin' this drama in each minute that i watched
it. hahahaha :)))
i love how the Bang Bang Tang act very naturally,
and also how the Hei Su Hui Mei Mei portray
their roles. LOVE♥
especially Ao Quan, who is always teased by
the other boys that he is a dog. hahaha :)))
it's because pala of his name in english, if
i am right. haha.
at first i thought that the youngest in the
boys group was Ah-Wei, because of his height.
hahahaha :))) but then as i searched them, it
was Wang Zi! and i am very SURPRISED.
when i learnt that they are a band, i immediately
search and watch their videos. and whoa! they're
one hell of a dancer and singer and also a rapper,
coz they always have a rap part in their songs.
hahaha :)))
its also thanks to the series, that i got addicted
to both the boys and girls band. haha. in fairness
they're all CUTE ^_^ yay!:) haha.
it was after a while that i got to watch the
first ever concert of Bang Bang Tang. and i was
like.. TOUCHED.. to their message to each other
and to their fans. at that time, i learned that they
were facing harsh criticisms from the people saying
that their concert will not be filled with many people,
their concert will be a failure, their singing is worst,
they are a weak group and many more. but then,
they just continue with their show and give all
their best to it, even though they knew that
there are people expecting them to make a
mistake. FORTUNATELY, their concert was filled
with many fans and supporters and that is why
they were very grateful to them and also to
GOD for giving them such strength to continue
on fulfilling their dreams. yay!:)
SUCH AN INSPIRING BAND ISN'T IT?
GOD BLESS ^_^
yay!:)
