I got a Thai drama which i never seen Thai drama before. But i watched the Korean version.
Hope you give it a chance. :) Can you please mark your comment as spoiler or remove the title? This game is supposed to have secret "blind dates". 😉 Thank you!
I picked the pink umbrellas. So excited that it's a Japanese drama with a body swap theme. Just added it to my…
Happy that you're curious about your date. I hope you have fun. Please hide your comment as spoiler though. Some people might not like to know that this photo leads to a certain country. 😉 Thank you!
well woaw i did not know this became an issue, especially since this is based on the webtoon and HYYH the Notes,…
I just found out about it recently by browsing the comment section here, because I wondered why the drama hasn't aired yet. I also thought since they based it on the webtoon it shouldn't be a problem. Well...
No it wasn't as far as I know. Here's what caused the cockpit windshield failure: "The root cause of the incident was damage to the seal on the right-hand side windshield, which caused moisture to penetrate and remain in the cavity on the bottom edge of the windshield. The insulation of wires in the windshield heating system was reduced after being soaked for a long time, resulting in continuous arc discharges at the bottom left corner of the windshield. This led to local high temperatures and breakage of the windshield's double-layer structure. As a result, the windshield could no longer withstand the pressure difference between inside and outside the cockpit and burst off from the fuselage."

Synopsis from Baidu (Google Translated): The movie is based on the widely circulated image of Yaksha. The story begins with a girl trapped in the country of Yaksha demon, imprisoned in the endless prison, but falling in love with Yaksha demon. In the mysterious Yaksha Demon Kingdom, the protagonists pass through the Infinite Prison where hundreds of demons are suppressed, the deserted town where Yaksha gather, the Guixu Tower guarded by giant pythons, and the triple purgatory on the tower. The true love between the beauty and the evil spirit across the two clans makes people cry. Under the ugly and terrifying Yasha evil face, there is a loyal heart hidden, hiding in the world only to protect it for a lifetime. In the end, the girl was transformed into a witch in order to open a barrier and seal away the endless yaksha cavalry, the human-eating giant python, and the evil demon king forever in the demon kingdom.
The concern about including real names in fictional stories arises from the possibility that the audience might…
I totally understand that reasoning and my original comment wasn't meant to deny its logic. Sorry, if it came off wrongly. I merely wonder if a simple disclaimer at each episode wouldn't have been enough and the more efficient solution considering the progress of the production... Also I think changing the names will make it easier for the people who don't know BTS but it takes away from those who are fans and also kinda removes the connection it had to its webtoon and BTS. Personally, I'm not a fan of the name changes.
Did they re-film it or they just dubbed the names differently later on? Or if they re filmed then did they re…
I looked it up because I wasn't sure. Here's what I found: "Filming was halted in late October 2020 following concerns raised by fans about the characters' names being the same as the group members' names.[8] Originally scheduled to resume in early December, filming was eventually pushed back to January 2021.[9] On April 7, 2021, it was announced that the main characters' names would be changed, and some scenes reshot."

Can someone help me, please? I read the synopsis and it doesn't sound bad. I'm a fan of good thrillers but dislike Death Games like Squid Game or Imawa no Kuni no Alice because they make me feel depressed. So would this be a good choice for me to watch or rather not? Spoiler for end of part 1 and 2 (under spoiler tag) would be appreciated too. ^^
No offense. I just think re-filming a drama just because it might cause misunderstandings regarding the real names is an exaggeration to me. Wouldn't have been a disclaimer like "This drama is based on fiction and any similarities with real people are coincidentally" enough? It reminds me of the drama "Joseon Exorcist" that got cancelled because it used creative freedom on history and real historical people and audience couldn't distinguish history and fiction and got enraged because it didn't portray history correctly. But that was the whole point like it is here. The dramas do not intend to show the real history and facts, they are based on fiction or creativity. I'm European maybe that's why I do not get why it should be a problem using real names, but showing a piece with fictional story. We do that all the time and there's no problem.
Well, I'm glad to see that the drama will finally get to air soon.
The biggest culture shock for me was the amount of respect younger people in Asia have for elders. I mean we do have respect towards older people here as well. But the sort of respect "the older one is always right and you do not object" was new to me.
Basically all you mentioned here (except for the reading culture part) was new to me as well in my beginnings into dramaland which started with J-Dramas. While watching I grew fond to most of them. ^.^
