Great article . I LOVE THIS SHOW... I've watched both seasons of the original and I must say i like this version…
Really you liked the outbursts??..UGGH that was my least favourite part of the J drama. Every time the camera zoomed in on Fukunaga i started to cringe in anticipation of that horrible sound he makes. I hope you're doing episode reviews on this show :)
Great article . I LOVE THIS SHOW... I've watched both seasons of the original and I must say i like this version better so far. I scored the originals 8.5 (I think) because they were so mind twisty and awesome.But i think the sacrifice you make with most J dramas is character development and back story. The episode are so short and the show's run is also so short (usually 8- 13 episodes). I love that in the Korean version we see why the characters are who they are and how they become something more.
Akiyama is AWESOMESAUCE but he doesn't seem very human where as Woo jin is very flawed but brilliant. In the J drama I wasn't really sure who the villain was ( was it the contestants, the Liar Game Secretariat,Yokoya or Katsuragi) I just wanted them to hurry up and win already and get out of the awful game. In the k drama Do young is everything you love to hate in a villain (Shin Sung Rok ROCKS SO HARDDD). I also find Da Jung more tolerable that Noa (esp in season 1 UGGHH). As a lover of rom-coms I also like the hint at something romantic between Da jung and Woojin right out of the gate (we had to wait a lonnnnnnggg time in the J-drama for anything remotely sexy between the two leads). The Fukunagaesque character in the K drama is also ALOT less annoying in my book ( I was very relieved to see that). over all love both versions and i thin k theyre doinga great job. My only worry is they need more episodes I don't want it to end so soon :(
I love every drama Tvn has aired, they really make good and Original dramas so why are the ratings so low D:
I know, i looked at my list and most of my dramas are tvN. the main channels dont have anything i usually like even thought they seem to be popular they are also extremely long. I think tvn i s catering to the overseas fans more than locals. Plus Nine Boys was too cute for words and Im sad surplus princess was cut. What can you do , people like what they like
I think im the only person int he universe shipping HYR and JJM. I know KT and JM are the OTP but there's something about HYR and JJM that I'm digging ( don't stone me LOL)
I'm actually watching one of the dramas they subbed right now :(. I watched a movie the other day and had to stop half way through because the subs were so bad. They just didn't make sense. You will be missed WITH S2
