EP 11 Looking at their girlfriends in the idiot throes of drunken sisterhood, the two boyfriend sigh togethere and sling their girlfriends' bags off their necks in perfect unison!
One of the joys of cdrama combined with MDL -- Daniel Zhou has 3 shows in the pipeline to look forward to. 2 costume dramas and 1 modern. One of the costume-ers is a noona tale and its out in 26.
Wow I found an article from England on this subject: https://www.euppublishing.com/doi/abs/10.3366/mclc.2023.0031"In…
I dont know enough about chinese modern dramas older then a few years to comment on who was first, but it is sort of a moot question, while i respect yr pride and love for kdrama.
Its a renaissance in asia of tvdrama, based on huge audiences and fierce competition within national industries but also between them, and creative copying on all sides and between everybody is the norm. As in all of the arts, it is how you make it new again that counts. The arts communities of each nation are porous and continuous with each other, anyhow.
This is a sophisticated production with a really poorly written female lead, it isnt just poor Ahn Eun-Jin. Cynical retro-romance tropes planned to garner the widest poss. audience.
I get really really annoyed after each episode of helpless clumsy clueless FL, but start the next just for another good shot of JKY.
Then I start laughing.
It is a great script OTHERWISE, with a really excellent ensemble of actors putting their all into being really entertaining.
Urgh. The babyBlue/yellow/pink color scheme, while appropriate, isnt for me.
I am only on ep15, but have slowly warmed up to this show mainly because of the non-verbal acting skills of Zhou Ke Yu. Timing and a complex collection of glances, blinks, shuffles, breaths and mumbles slowly have built up the emotional growth of a young man. Now we are treated to his eyebrows and wildly desperate glares like shots of adrenaline as he hides his attraction s/intentions but lets his feelings show. It is like an actor's showcase!
I am watching a new series on viki rakuten starring Kanon but there is no trace of the series here on viki. Not only that but all of the actors listed but one (who is listed asa trainee) arent listed either. Nor the director.
I am always curious about the newest actors but these are so new that no one knows anything about them. Or else all their names are made up.
The backgrounds of the whole series so far are all cgi.
I don't think you mean any harm by your comment and you seem like a genuine person, but can we stop commenting…
Just to be contrary, consider the pressures on female actresses to be overthin for certain parts if they arent already tiny enough to be picked up with one hand. Eun-Jin has to be carried around by Ki-yong, and even with lifts, dummies, doubles and camera fakeouts, she still has to generally look small enough ahead of time.
That said I am hoping she will gain back some weight within the show and attribute her thinness now to her character's being so 'stressed'...
I really related to LucyL's personal comment. Worrying about our actors and actresses health! So older generation....and here we are.
I just realized the actor who plays cute Gyeong Min, JiHyeok's secretary, is actually a musical theater actor. Shin Joo Hyup, that is. I am always amazed at the professional power some shows can pack into their casts.
Each shot of his face is like an electric shock and I treasure those happy smiles. I have a friend who says she cranes her neck to follow her favourite MLs as they move offscreen, and now I understand.
He is a very good father, as you say.

Priceless. Absolutely priceless.
FINALLY. The girls can get together and laugh!
Ha Yeong is a good influence on everybody!
