Ikenai Taiyou definitely deserves it's place here. 100%. I love that song, and even hearing the first couple seconds of it is enough to get me pumped. And 'Still' is instantly recognizable :)
I never really thought about that song from I Hear Your Voice as memorable, but it is nice.
Although I must admit, with an article about MEMORABLE drama OSTs, the fact that there aren't any songs from BoF is strange to me.
Because really, honestly, aren't we all thinking it?
ALMOST PARAAAAAAAADISEEEEEEEEEEEE
After seeing her cameo in Kill Me, Heal Me, I've finally come to the conclusion that I just can't tell her and Seohyun apart. Or, at the very least, I just constantly forget Yuri exists. I was like "Hey, it's an SNSD member! Seohyun... she's gained some weight in her face, though."
Yuri literally just looks like a slightly chubbier version of Seohyun in my opinion ._.
I don't understand the hype over this drama at all. The only explanation is that these people have never seen Ji Sung in a drama before and aren't yet used to his brilliance.
After reviewing this movie a little, I don't think that that little spoiler was really all that bad. Definitely come back to it, even if not right away.
It seems like they ran out of time at the end. I seriously have no clue what happened, it wasn't cleaned up very nicely. Usually I complain about dramas that don't seem to know what to do with all the time they have, but this one didn't have enough ;-;
I find it hard to focus on this drama because of how inexplicably annoying the female lead is (she was fine in…
A couple of them were okay, especially the one that Ji Sung sang, but the ballad sung by Moon Myung Jin had extremely questionable high notes and was played wayyyy too repetitively, and the other song, I believe the title in English is 'Auditory Hallucinations', was played even more repetitively. In addition to that, I found the female's voice in that song intolerable. Maybe I'm just being too judgmental, but it really ruined the drama for me.
I find it hard to focus on this drama because of how inexplicably annoying the female lead is (she was fine in other dramas I've seen her in!? Why can't I stand her in this?) and the repetitive, terrible music choices. If you don't find those things as annoying as I do, all the power to you.
I'm glad other people are as pissed about this drama as I am. So messy. Painfully messy.
Buuuuuuuuuuuuuut it's Hyun Bin, and the drama Thousandth Man exists, so anybody calling this 'one of the worst' or 'horribly terrible' or w/e just don't know true badness.
I'm playing the game right now, but I'm really bad at it- so I haven't gotten far enough to know whether I like the story very much yet. What a struggle.
So I'm rewatching this drama because I saw it on netflix, and it's still not great- but holy hell. How did anybody believe for a second that the main character was a dude? How!? HOW!? Her voice is the epitome of feminine.
I don't find Vaness Wu attractive at all, and it has nothing to do with his ethnic background...
But that's just me.
I was hoping for a more structured, neutral view on this subject- to me, all the points in this article could have been elaborated on more, and some parts just reprimanded people who have these opinions, rather than understanding why people might have them...
But anyway. As somebody who started watching dramas through Japanese dramas, I can't fully relate to these things, but I will admit to the fact that when one of my friends first recommended I watch Korean dramas, I was adamant that I wouldn't. All the Japanese things that I'd seen and watched gave me a bad impression of Korean, and I called it an ugly language,, I called everybody in the drama that she wanted me to watch (BoF) ugly, and I was a general ass about the whole thing. And then I watched a 25 episode drama in 2 days. v_v
I didn't really mean what I'd said about Korean dramas before- I was just being stubborn. Now I'm trying to get my mother to watch a Chinese drama, and she has the same complaints- it's an ugly language, the people are ugly, all that jazz. It's annoying, but I get it.
When it comes to remakes though, it makes sense that they're compared to Korean versions. USUALLY (not always, but usually) the Korean version is the original. And if it isn't, it most definitely has the highest production value, and may seem the most impressive. So yeah, duh, they're going to compare other versions to the Korean one.
Seo In Guk and Shin Sung Rok? SCORE.
I'm liking the first episode- then again, I tend to love historical dramas, so I may be a bit biased.
But I must say something.
THE CHICK. THE CROSSDRESSING CHICK.
She is one of the most convincing cross dressing females I've seen in a drama, and I think it's because she looks ALMOST EXACTLY LIKE SONG JOONG KI IN SUNGKYUNKWAN SCANDAL. Somebody please tell me it isn't just me that sees that so I don't feel so freaking crazy.
The stereotypical ones- Hi-Chew and pocky... there's a Japanese candy store in a mall near me, and while I like basically everything I've tried, those two will always be my favourites. This is a really good idea though, I may have to check them out myself...
