W two worlds Season 2 sc

A choice must be made:
1 - Tell the story within the budget.
2 - Tell it like a movie that would cost 10 times more.

The 2nd choice has been made. Of course, having as many action scenes as a big budget movie, but with a budget ten times less, some scenes will have difficulties to be successful. We need to use more green screen technique.
I prefer the first choice because it gives more coherence and seriousness. For example, the series 24h. All the action scenes have a realistic side, there are never "over the top" stunts. Car accidents, yes, but not cars flying after using a springboard. It's less spectacular, and more visceral.

An example of a low-budget film that made action scenes requiring 10 times the budget: Ultraviolet (2006). The film has a bad rating, unfairly. The lack of budget was compensated by a comic-book aesthetic. Some scenes are ugly, unrealistic, unbelievable, but on the whole this film is amazing for its aesthetic quality, turning ugly things into crazy things.

During episode 2 there was a parody scene of Terminator 2 (striptease scene).
I wonder if the "hanging a cable" scene isn't also comedy parody with a reference. Watch "Back the future 1", around 1h40, there is also a "hanging a cable" scene.

When you think about that, americans show like GOT or Westworld are 10M dollars PER one hour Episode ! It would be 180M if it was Sisyphus. x10 ratio.

Even with some flaws, this drama is amazing. ;-)

I won't talk about stunts too spectacular to the point of being ugly. For the rest, some action scenes are forced. This is to emphasize the characters. And it's likely that if this wasn't done, the audience would be frustrated in other ways as well. It's important to create a balance between the fighting aspect of Seo Hae and the intelligent aspect of Tae Sul even during the action scenes. Therefore, it is necessary for the writer or director to promote and guide the action scenes for this. Hence this "forced" side. For example, the attack on the apartment, Seo Hae gets her share of glory by fighting in the smoke. One of the men in the CB is smart enough to use a fan. This forces the two heroes to hide in the kitchen. There, it's the occasion for the script to balance the two characters, it's Tae Sul's turn to have his share of glory by using his intelligence: transforming coca bottles into missiles. This is plausible, if we look at the youtube videos, we can see that the bottle is indeed that fast when it takes off. However, to allow for all this, the scene gives an unnatural impression. The drama must prevent the CB agents from acting too fast. And this is a flaw found in many other scenes. You get the impression that they are dragging their feet and that they could act more quickly. Provided that the drama does not contain an additional fantasy element, such as Seo Hae's ability to distort the time around her.

One of the theory is time travelers and maybe infected people generate a strange radiation, and could do it at will, what they call "run" in the drama. A kind of anentropic forcefield that spread around. It generate time inconsistencies, or make immediate time around the traveller to change. Like, the traveller change slightly their timeline and look like disapearing (train scene), or some of their attributes are delayed (shoot the gun, with no magazine, because in the alternate time line there is one). It create problems of memory or confusion in the world and some timeshift. Park assistants alway forget everything. Policemen don't remember when was the kidnaping. 72h pass in a flash. Some reccursions, Sun give 5 bananas, but next scene, he give again 5 bananas.

Did you know that the coca cola + butane trick was real ? many videos on youtube make demonstration of it!
In the drama, it was a action-comedy feel, not my thing. But, let's say... the "macGiver" trick of the episode. Sadly, there was not "McGiver" trick in episode 3, I feel frustrated. Well, if you do jokes, as well do joke all the way. ;-)

SPOILER:
She will learn it, but too late.

Yes! Here there is something else. When you watch what follow, think more about what it means when they say "run". Obviously, this scene is weird on purpose. Also, rewatch the scene. A guy with detector point out the exact opposite direction where the FL is supposed to be.

Insane plot twist ^^

It's done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I watched Penthouse full season 1.
hopefully , I already know there is a season 2.
Without that, I would just... doing bad things like in the drama...
Damn ending!!!!!! :-)))))

ep20, watch from 51:10.
Kim So Yeon actress performance is huge!!!

Yes, no doubt about this. It's addictive, fast, never boring, surprising, complex, enigmatic.
There is some flaws but also never seen before stuff, script, fights, sets, movie like.

Ep18 ending is acting feast, mass hysteria, crack crazy.
Ｏ(≧∇≦)Ｏ
And the plot-twist about Yoon-Hee... Is she really the heroin ?
Damn I love that, this drama is so great.

Drama has good ratings in Korea. Here, it became impossible to judge because the drama was attacked several days ago. Certainly fake accounts, since the rating suddenly went from 8.6 to 7.7 in a flash. And this may have been repeated since then. It seems that the actress Park Shin-Hye has fans, but also very active anti-fans. Well, I'm not an expert on the subject, but that's what I've read here and there. You have to ask a specialist who goes on social networks, that's not my case.

Well, I agree with what you say. For me, it's the only negative point of the show. Everything else is great and innovative. The script is very complex and tremendously well developed from the beginning. It was a challenge to present so many mysteries in such a short time, while at the same time rendering understandable events. I became instantly addicted from the very first episode.

Now you say it, it become more clear in my mind.
Quickly, this show said us to not taking it too seriously, there was a scene about that during episode 2 : TS is in the house, and he set a McGiver tech trap at lighting speed. CB guy enter the house then BOOM. It was already a exagerated comedy action scene.
I don't like that, first episode was dramatic. I expected a dramatic and serious show. And more subtle comedy. Like dialogs of TS and SH in the car are good ones. But not over-the-top unbelievable action comedy. Damn... It spoil me the whole show. I'm ok about self-parody content, in a show like Penthouse, but not in this one. T T

I'm not sure about what scene you talk. In the warehouse, ML speak with the henchmen because he's curious about time travel things. And....... He ask exactly what we want to know as spectators. So, a give-information-to-audience scene.

Also, refer to the low voice discussion with FL and ML in the car : they know as soon as ML give the "key" to broker Park, he will kill them. Then I suppose ML try to get ride of Park in any way.

I don't know if things will get better. But I'm ready now, for things be sometimes as bad as we watched it, during ep 3 and 4. It's just a trick, so I won't be too much disapointed, and continue to like the drama for the good stuff it bring.

Ta répartie me fait penser à cette chanson, je met le lien. ;-)

There was no lack of means because Sisyphus is full of amazing scenery, and a very good photo. It was just a matter of choice. Telling it like MOTA, or like Crash Landing on you... Sadly, it falls on the second one... This drama crash land on us.

So it's an FN SCAR ? Not too big for that ? SCAR-H maybe ? Look like a compact assault rifle. I made search about that, I was leaning for Deawoo K2 QBC or Healen 556, but many details don't match.

This girl is a romantic young girl warrior. It's why she break the gamepod with a riffle burst, just to take the Teddy Bear. It make sens. I take it good for the character.

What I annoy me the most about this drama is directing during stunts or chases (but fights are perfect and inovative in dramaland). It's too much, and badly done.

Episodes 1 and 2, I was on the way for a masterpiece, so good the script is, full of details, easter eggs, complex construction of the mysteries. I was hoping for a Terminator feel, scary, dangerous, thrilling.
And now, there is too many silly things that spoil the drama. So ok, the plot, the script, is still very good, directing about sets too, BGM and fights.
But in no way it could be a masterpiece anymore, it lack consistency about the way the drama is told. It start serious, and add ridiculous elements now. I dislike this director for that. He can make both the better and the worst. See the drama "Legends of the blue sea", moto chase, so ugly. He put thing like that again. Can't be more simple and direct or keep a general tone from beginning to end.

I enjoy most a drama like Memories of Alhambra because a choice is made for the whole drama about how it's told. Here, I feel like the great plot and ideas mismatch with some poorly done action scenes. I still enjoy very much the drama, thank for the script and ideas. But of course, I'm disapointed. It's not the new huge thing I was thinking at first.
