Trot Lovers Episode 1

Okay... First of all, what is going on with…

Okay... First of all, what is going on with Ji Hyun Woo's clothes and hair?! I mean do singers really look like that? I haven't seen any like that. Maybe they like extreme fashion or whatever but he just looked goofy. Secondly, what is up with his acting? I loved loved LOVED Ji Hyun Woo in Queen In Hyun's Man! He did a wonderful job there! But here... I don't think he plays funny, narcissistic characters well. I know it's pretty hard to play a narcissistic celebrity and still be lovable but look at Jeon Ji Hyun in You Who Came From The Stars or Yoon Sang Hyun in Secret Garden. They pulled it off pretty well! But Ji Hyun Woo looked very weird and awkward. The scenes in which he was supposed to be funny came out embarrassing. I liked his acting in a couple of scenes but overall I didn't like him much...

Jung Eun Ji was so adorable! I loved her! Her acting was great and her character was awesome! Her character was kinda like the others I've seen in dramas but she did a really good job making hers stand out. I think the credit goes to her acting. She is a no-nonsense, strong girl and there was no awkwardness in her portrayal of her character.

What is wrong with Shin Sung Rok's character?! He was... extremely weird! A psychological problem? I don't get his role yet. But I'm not sure I like his character much, especially with the weird hair. I loved him in You Who Came From The Stars and I had high expectations for him. I can't really say much about him since he appeared for a very short time but I really hope his character isn't someone I would come to hate!

Lee Se Young was so pretty! I can't say much about her either because she appeared for only two scenes but she wasn't so bad.

I was surprised to see the husband from Secret Love Affair in this drama! His pole suited him well :P

The story... well until through half of the episode it was boring and I was thinking of dropping the drama. But then it became funny and interesting so I decided to continue. I hate that all the characters are related to each other somehow. It is way too unrealistic. Also, the drama doesn't seem something original. I know it's still too early to say but the stories seemed the same old drama stories.

The music was really nice! I loved Ji Hyun Woo's voice! And his guitar playing <3 Jung Eun Ji wasn't so bad either. I'm not a fan of trot music but it wasn't that bad.

All in all, it was enjoyable. I do hope it gets better...
