Why do you care? It's his face not your face..🤣If you're that jealous, go get your face done then if you can…
That's hell.
People age. That's the normal thing. It's gonna happen regardles of how much plastic someone gets in their face.
Online fandom is just as much to blame for South Korea's obession with make-up, cosmentics and beauty standards that people look like CGI characters more than actual human beings.
and the problem is?Something that is not new in Korean culture, everey time..It's constantly repeated no matter…
>And there is no problem with that
There IS a problem with it lol.
Normalizing this shit is EXACTLY why more and more people get it.
Someone lacking confidence aren't going to get it just by getting the surgery. That's why you can tell that many South Korean Actors get surgery multiple times.
I was watching Queen of Tears and the main male lead ALSO looks weird as hell while he was good looking in It's Okay not to be Okay.
It's not my business but there is a problem with it. This shit is going to feed into the obession that Korea has with unrealistic beauty standards.
Oda picked all the characters for the roles, he dealt with the script too and wouldn't allow it unless he approved…
> I believe ODA'S words about anyones
I mean you can take Oda's PR word for promotion of the latest big project.
Or you can simply read Oda's work, you know the thing that he spend 20+ years writing, and see how his particular style of storytelling and writing is missing from the live-action.
So either Oda just completely forgot how to write, despite him currently writing his best arc thus far, or Oda's involvement has been greatly exaggarated to maintain a certain level of original author's authority.
Either way, it doesn't really change the fact that the show is utterly garbage. If Oda was truly involved then somehow he managed to pump out this pile of garbage while he was in the process of writing super dense and complicated arcs like Whole Cake and Wano, both of which are also far superior to the likes of shitty LA.
I'll stick with believeing Oda's writing through his actual writing and not some PR statement designed for people to use as a say to avoid talking about the actual quality of LA.
Oda picked all the characters for the roles, he dealt with the script too and wouldn't allow it unless he approved…
Oda was not involved creatively nor is he credited for being the showrunner or the writer.
Using Oda's name to hide the godawful writing and down-right incompetent interpretation of the Eastblue saga is just pathetic and embarrassing.
The show is an example of something being made without much understanding of the source-material and then replacing the good stuff with garbage dumbed down version.
Why's the reaction of us foreigners to concoct a negative perception and complain - just to highlight our superior…
I love that you are trying to make it out to be my "issue".
It's not my "issue". I'm not the one announcing marriage/divorce. The agency/the actress is the one who decided that.
Your point about what "people" like to read is beyond retarded. South Korea's obession with celebrities and their personal lives is unhealthy. That's not an "opinion". That's a fact. This type of stuff feeds into that shitty culture.
That's also the reason why Lee Sun-kyun ended up ending his life when the details of his personal life became public and that same public tarnished his image.
People's obession with actors/actress is already creepy as it is but then we have people like you who fundamentally don't even seem to understand the issues that come with this obession.
Grow a pair and learn to think for yourself instead of repeating whatever PR garbage you typed there.
One Piece is here because it’s a co-production. As far as I know none of what you listed is a co-production…
>(as he approved it, and chose the actors),
Approving and choosing actors doesn't really mean shit lol.
Whether Oda was actually actively involved in the writing matters and he clearly wasn't. This was Matt Owen's stuff through and through. You can't possibly to expect me to believe that Oda was involved when his literally decades of work is fundamentally day and night difference from the live-action.
And I'm not just talking about the changes. I'm talking about how utterly garbage the writing is, how one-note the characters are, how weightless the story is, how it lacks the impact, how it lacks the carefully build up context that Oda uses to give weight to the whole thing etc... There are so many inconsistenices, amateur writing decisions, complete lack of understanding of the source material etc...
> it has only eight episodes, not everything is possible to be recreated the same way like in the manga or anime
Why is this an excuse? No one told them to just do it in 8 episodes. Quality of writing is STILL a concept regardless of whether it's an adaptation or not.
This comes back to the incompetence of the writers. They made those decision. No one forced them. The scenes they recreated from the manga were arguably the weakest of the entire thing.
And this is the same show with scenes where Koby and Garp just fart around and do nothing while actual SH's, you know the main characters, are not given much time.
Anyone who has finished Highschool writing would be able to pick up and analyze the story to see how badly it fails.
It's a novel concept but I would rather not have an adaptation than have an adaptation that rapes the source material and tries to shove garbage Western spin on it. No one likes One Piece because of how some dumbass from West can make his version.
People love the story that Oda told the way he did. Changing that AND then failing at it is laughable.
>if you compare it to some other manga adaptations (especially fantasy/supernatural kind)
I don't need to compare it to anything else to know that it's trash.
it's even worst than Dragon Ball Evolution because at least that movie embraced the fact that it didn't understand the series and people know that it doesn't understand the series.
One Piece live-action is incompetently crafted yet fans are too busy blowing superficial praises to care about the actual quality. Who cares how badly Luffy's flashback is executed when the show can have cosplay Luffy get his hat from cosplay Shanks.
I know that most people consume media at the most basic surface -level but damn, it's embarrassing to see such a piss-poor show get praised by people who know fuck-all about the series.
But for drama standarts the drama was really good and only that is important^^
Oda was not the writer or the showrunner of the live-action. He was a consultant who had to approve stuff (how much or what he can approve is debatable as the PR statements don't paint the whole picture).
Not to mention the fact that the show was shot in South Africa and Oda wasn't on set while also having his full-time manga to write/draw.
The show didn't need to be Westernized because people ALREADY loved the show for WHAT it was rather than it being some generic half-assed Western garbage that is solely created for their braindead audience.
And lol no. The live-action is not "more than perfect". It is fundamentally amateur hour in terms of production and writing.
Go read or re-read East Blue saga in the manga. That's Oda's work, not the live-action.
But for drama standarts the drama was really good and only that is important^^
They won't have better writers.
Anywhere you look, people are drowing out the criticism and providing superficial praises. The writers will look at the surface reception and see it like somehow they didn't fuck-up the arc.
I highly doubt they would improve considering that Eastblue is the easiest arc to adapt as its the start of the series. Once they enter Grandline, the scope and scale of the world/story opens up significantly.
Eastblue saga is there to lay the foundation and establish the characters, themes, tone, atmosphere, crew dynamic, etc... LA fucked up all of it.
I hate how they skipped the aspect where Oda uses major villains in Eastblue to fleshout Luffy's characteristics. Instead they are replaced with "fights" that have no depth or drama; just pure cringe Bollywood style wirejump action.
This shit was embarrassing to watch as a long-time fan.
And he wasn't even that bad in the show. He was just fine.
The fact that I have seen many people talk about his appearance more than his actual acting, to me, says a lot.
The actors clearly doesn't seem to think it's minor or they wouldn't go multiple times lol.
Does that somehow make it acceptable?
K-drama is mostly consumed by female audience and for a lot of them, the actual acting doesn't seem to matter as much as he pretty the boy is.
Most of the popular actors are popular because they got lots of fangirls. This actor seems the same in that regard.
People age. That's the normal thing. It's gonna happen regardles of how much plastic someone gets in their face.

It's not normal and it's not okay.
I always heard about the myth of brain-dead teen girls but holyshit this is an actual real-life representation.
Instead of focusing on looks, you should spend a bit more time in school and understand the point being made.
Stop trying to normalize people's insecurity and beauty standards
The fact that this dude looked much better BEFORE is a testament to why people shouldn't ignore this.
Brain-dead consumers are everywhere nowadays smh.
As a dude, this is just puzzling.

Not everything needs to be published just because the person at the center of it is a celebrity.
Celebrity worship culture is already messed up. You don't really need to add fire to it.
I meant to say that but i forgot to add that point.
Approving and choosing actors doesn't really mean shit lol.

I mean look at Zoro and Usopp
Oda did not work on the show besides his name being used as a very obvious PR statment.
Not to mention the fact that the show was shot in South Africa and Oda wasn't on set while also having his full-time manga to write/draw.
