Title It's Okay!
The film reminded me of the days when I still believe in achieving your dreams.

Title It's Okay!
Released in 2023. So, they filmed this in 2021 or 2022 and IRe was only 16 or 17 then.

Her role is a school kid who was forced to become an adult, and she did well in portraying that. She already showed signs of improvement in her acting. Her expressions were already controlled.

So, this was the project where she improved her craft. If I'm not mistaken, she's the youngest in the cast. Her co-star (SuBin) is almost 10 years her senior, not to mention SeoYun. They probably helped her a lot.

The greatest thing here was this film was obviously made for IRe in mind. It's rare to see the youngest talent, and one that still need more experience, exposure, and improvement, to take on a leading role with older and veteran actors in the cast.

They trusted IRe and she delivered.

That explains why her role in Shin's Project / New President Project is so perfect. This was that project that taught her a lot and helped her improve by leaps.

She is no longer a teenager learning to act and gathering experience. She no longer need to take on kid-like, bratty girl, roles that sometimes exaggerates her expressions and acting. She's better. Far better.

We truly have a Best Actress in the making here. I for one will definitely cheer and root for her. Keep it up IRe. I want to see you win Best Actress within the next 10 years.

Ahh! Yeah, far away. There are plenty of Filipinos there too. Many are hopeless romantics, but of course not everyone are "good". Many are.

The thing about us, culturally we were raised to respect and protect women, elders, and kids. There are bad ones, but generally good ones. We were originally a matriarch culture, it changed during the colonial era. But the values remained.

Just have the identify those with good upbringing and not too sensitive about things like accompanying their partner to women's stores. πŸ˜† I really don't understand that "you're not macho if you're seen there". But, regardless, Filipinos are sweet. And if you found a gem, you'll probably want to divorce them later because they're still sweet. 😜 (I know some who are like that, their husband still act as if they are still bf/gf.)

But the character names are all different??
In Pretty Crazy, she's a baker who wanted to go to France to study more. Eventually she fulfilled it.

Haha, yep. Different stories. But the FL in both was played by YoonA and they ironically have similar tastes and ties.

Found him! Joel de la Fuente, he played Morales in Law and Order SVU, lol. Not sure why that stuck with me he…
Wow! That is why!

Disney sure did up the stakes. 😁 Netflix must be having a meeting to do the same.

Normally, we only see this level of multinational prod in movies. They sure did change the game.

And, yeah, I haven't seen Jacob either. Maybe in the next episodes? LOL, I can't wait what other surprises they have.

Yep, he was targetted. But it's odd because Stella is supposed to be a US asset.

Maybe they already knew John's character is close to an Assemblyman and wants to keep tabs if they're sharing information?

And the moment he was contacted, that was when they labeled him a spy? And it was Stella/mistress who filed the report? Probably even orchestrated the assassination?

I think Disney was the first to actually hire veteran American actors? Even the script for the US side were locally written. And the scenes were clearly made by an American production company.

I hope this becomes the norm. At least as long as the quality is at par or better.

I mean, seriously, the Philippines is the β„–1 country in Kdramaland that is often portrayed negatively. We just laugh at it and still watch.

πŸ€ͺ

Oh, we did file complaints at the diplomatic level too, multiple times. But not much changed.

At the end of the day, it is fiction.

However, we expect the same with their own. So, when a certain show was cancelled because it was "historically inaccurate", Filipinos told Koreans "it is fiction, don't you people know what fiction is? If you want historically accurate shows, watch a documentary!" The Koreans tried to defind themselves with, "it's our history, our culture". Which of course Filipinos also shut down with simple truths. 😜

Seriously, they kept painting our country negatively despite complaints on the diplomatic level. Little changes were seen. We understand, it is fiction. So we got back at them with "it is fiction" when they cancelled that Joseon zombie show a few years back. πŸ€ͺ

When nothing changes at the diplomatic level. Just wait for an opportunity to let them taste their own medicine. Sometimes, fighting fire with fire is the best option. In this case, fight fiction woth fiction. If they react badly, tell them, "it's fiction" and remind them they did the same to your own country (multiple times).

They sure did spend to hire foreign veteran actors instead of the usual hiring a foreigner in Korea to play anither foreign character.

If a man willing to wash your hair forever, marry him ASAP.
- I'll tie your shoes.

- Iron your clothes.

- Go shop with you in women's stores and sections. For me, men who are afraid entering women's stores and sections are not real men, especially if it is to accompany their woman.

- Carry your bag.

- You want to travel with your girl friends and having second thoughts if you should bring me along? No problem. Your friends are my friends.

- I'll even cook and drive if I know how. (But I don't. πŸ€ͺ)

- I don't drink. Even if I do, I choose not to. I always act as the sober person in a group. Officemates, group dates, friends, whatever. I like it that way.

- Some suitor gave you flowers? I'll carry it for you. (Real incident. Some guy gave my ex flowers, I carried it for her. She was afraid and curious if I'll throw it. πŸ˜† She told me to throw it and here's what I said, "No. Bring it home, put it in a vase, smell it. Don't waste the flowers whose life has been cut short. Besides, people think I gave you flowers, so win-win." πŸ€ͺ)

Seriously, I don't understand guys who throw flowers or gifts their woman received from another. It does nothing good and it is a waste. They gave a perfume? Use it or sell it! Flowers? Carry it, don't be an arse by throwing it (and making a huge fuss publicly too).

They gave a ring? Sell it! But if it was for a proposal, don't, she'll kill you. πŸ€ͺ Better luck next time.

Anyway…

I'm available. 😜

I want to know why they are after Seo Munju???!!! They through so much of efforts just to kill her!
Yeah. That is lingering in my mind as well. The US is capable of manipulating social media, they did that in the Philippines during COVID in 2020, the US President and Pentagon were behind all the anti-vaccine propaganda in the Philippines in an effort to undermine China's good grace in providing free vaccines to the Philippines. The US didn't like China giving free vaccines to the Philippines.

That's real history. It's fact. The US and Pentagon admitted to all of it when they were caught.

If they're capable of that, why are they resorting to assassinations and bombings just to elimate a Presidential candidate? That level of response is reserved so super highly valuable targets that you must 10000000% guarantee is eliminated.

What do they think she supposedly know that it warrants terrorism?

Then again, the US as doing terrorism in other countries, even their own "allies", is nothing new.

Same. The "mistress" is not easy. If she's Stella, it means she's been in Korea for at least 10 years. So, she should be closer to the FL's age than meets the eye.

But at the same time, she probably was just distraction. Maybe the real deal was something in that house, or, just to build up the FL's unfulfilled dreams.

From the looks of it, they did work with a real US-based production to get everything properly. The dialogues are native American style, not a translation. They also hired veteran and top Hollywood actors who often plays the same roles.

1. A few years before the US started their illegal invasion of Iraq, the Mossad (Israeli Intelligence) repeatedly…
Yep, at least based on the Snowden files and the other leaks that came later. The US is still insisting their intel were accurate, so they acted for the best interest of the world.

They'd rather protect the reputation of their intelligence network than admit it was bad intel and get away with it.
