the korean web drama Fragile that was first announced as korean remake of Skam and then was retracted as such and advertised as its own show (with similar model of airing and themes) premiered

i skimmed through episode 1 and plainly, it is Skam. not just similar or reminds of, but a really damn faithful adaptation of the show, remade with korean filming style and mood. the story, characters' profiles and traits, relationships, the storytelling style (like intro speech about societal problems of high schoolers), showing the date of events in the beginning of a clip, the airing model with bonuses on social media, it's all identical. we have a korean Eva with horrible insecurities and loneliness, korean Ingrid who makes her feel like shit in classes, her boyfriend korean Jonas whose affection she is so unconfident about

korean Isak is very possessive of korean Jonas and his feelings can be seen like 5 kilometers away so i assume if it's renewed for more seasons we will see a gay storyline later too

korean Noora briefly appeared in the middle of the episode too and seems to be as cool as the original which thank god, korean Eva is gonna need her influence badly

if anyone is a Skam fan and wanted to watch back when it was announced and got discouraged when it was retracted as a remake, you can do it. as long as they don't suddenly go completely different way in episode 2, it's Skam Korea

idk alit about copyright laws but legally speaking how is fragile allowed to exist, like they gave not changed near enough to warrant claiming it is not a remake cause thats exactly what it is

Fragile Review: Strong Friendships, Weak Romances

From friendship dynamics to hidden crushes, Korean series 'Fragile' portrays the trials and triumphs of teenage life, offering a well-shot look at relatable high school struggles.

⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 3 out of 5. Sneha Jaiswal (Twitter | Instagram) One of the most comically sweet moments in the Korean drama Fragile is a scene where five teen girlfriends turn up at a gynaecologist’s office because one of them fears she might be pregnant. “Don’t they look like high school students?” a man visiting with his wife comments on their appearance, but the girls reassure their friend not…

you know what, Fragile does actually seem awfully lot like Skam, all it's missing is a korean Noora 🤨

edit: i found her I FOUND MY GIRL
