2021 (57th) BaekSang Arts Awards - May 13, 2021

Best New Actress (Park Ju-Hyun)

Uzun zamandır bu kadar iç daraltan bir dizi izlememiştim. İnanılmaz boğucu, size bir tabutun içindeymişsiniz hissi veren bir yapım. Kim neden böyle bir dert edinip yazmış, bir diğeri neden bunu çekmek istemiş ve kalanlarda neden buna ödül vermiş hiç aklım almadı.

İlk bakışta gözünüzü kısıp bakarsanız küçük bir Walter White görebilirsiniz ama belirtmek isterim ki bu bir yanılsama olacaktır. Diziyi izlerken sinir krizi geçirmemek için çok zor kendimi tuttum. Anne ve babası tarafından terk edilmiş lise öğrencisi olan Oh Ji-Soo(Kim Dong-Hee) hayatta kalabilmek için bir yandan derslerini idare ederken diğer yandan para kazanmak zorundadır. İçinde bulunduğu durum ise onu suça yöneltmiştir. Aslında baktığınızda ortada var olan bir suçu güvenli hale getirdiğini düşünerek kendini kandırmaktadır.

Henüz reşit olmamış kızlar para kazanmak için eskortluk yapmaktadır. Oh Ji-Soo’da kızların başına bir şey gelmemesini garantileyen kısımdadır. Güvenilir müşteri bulmak ve tehlike anında bilekliklerindeki düğmeye basarak onları anında kurtaracak güvenlik gücünü sağlamaktadır.

Kurduğu sistem sayesinde kızlar onun kim olduğunu, kaç yaşında olduğunu, nerede olduğunu, neye benzediğini hatta sesinin nasıl olduğunu dahi bilmiyorlar. Aynı şekilde güvenliklerini sağlayan sert abi rolündeki Lee Wang-Chul( Choi Min-Soo) nam-ı diğer Mr.Lee de aynı şekilde iletişime geçtiği için o da işi kimden aldığını bilmemektedir. Kızlara buluşacağı kişi ve adres bilgisi, Mr. Lee’ye de koruyacağı kız ve konumu iletiliyor. İş bitiminde herkes payına düşeni alıyor.

Sınıfta silik bir öğrenci gibi olsa da derslerinde ortalamanın üzerinde olan Ji-Soo dikkat çekmeden bu şekilde yaşamaktadır. Okulda popüler olan zengin bir kız öğrenciden hoşlanıyordur ama yalnızca ona uzaktan bakmakla yetinir. Zengin kızımız Bae Gyu-Ri( Park Ju-Hyun) ise annesi tarafından sıkı sıkıya denetlenen, mezun olunca şirketlerin başına geçmesi için planlanan bir kız. Kızımız ayıptır söylemesi tam bir sürtük. Her şeye sahip olduğu için canı sıkılıyor. Gözüne Ji-Soo’yu kestiriyor. Sadece kestirmek ile kalmıyor meraktan ve şımarıklıktan, Ji-Soo’nun iş için kullandığı ikinci telefonu çalıyor.

Bu noktadan sonra bütün hikaye tepe taklak giderken, izleyici olarak kurdeşen döküp, saç baş yoluyorsunuz. Böyle boğucu ve bunaltıcı başka bir dizi ne zaman izledin derseniz vallahi galiba yirmi yıl önce “Requiem for a Dream” izledim. Bir o zaman bu kadar daralmıştım. Hala da o film bende en daraltıcı filmdir. Ama bu dizide onunla yarışır, net. Karakterlere gelince ise hepsi bomboştu. Gerçek anlamda boşboş hiçbir arka plan hikayesi olmayan karakterlerdi. Karakter gelişimi zaten yoktu. Olmayan karakteri geliştirememişler haliyle. Zengin kız sıkıldı diye birinin hayatının içinden geçiyordu.

Dizide tek sevdiğim karakter Choi Min-Soo’nun oynadığı Lee Wang-Chul karakteriydi. Aslında dizide bir sürü tanıdık başarılı oyuncu var. Hiç biri diziyi kurtaramıyor. Kim Dong-Hee’yi “Itaewon Class” dizisinden tanıyoruz. Oyuncuyu beğendim. Hem masum hem çaresiz hem de acımasız geçişlerini güzel yaptı. Park Ju-Hyun’u ise “Love All Play” dizisinden tanıyoruz. O dizide oyuncuyu beğenmiştim ama bu dizide karakteriyle alakalı olsa gerek beğendim bile demeye dilim varmıyor.

Kesinlikle tavsiye etmediğim, zamanınıza yazık diyebileceğim bir diziydi.

You should smile. I like to see you smile. I never smiled that much. I just realized you don’t know yourself that well. You’ve always been a gentle guy who likes to smile. You’ve been like this since you were little. You always liked to smile and you were gentle. Even so, how can I smile now? I’m not a crazy man. I haven’t smiled in a long time. It’s nice to smile like this.

Doom at Your Service: he need to hold her hand every day before midnight to recharge her so she won't feel pain from her brain tumor.

My Demon: he need to hold her wrist to use his power since his tattoo (the source of his power) is now on her wrist. Ergo, if he doesn't hold her wrist, he cannot access his demon power.

So, these 2 dramas have similar vibes, but different mechanism on how this holding hand/wrist works. And believe me, I ache for BOTH.

The fight for justice starts with a little invitation...

...because evil is prevalent and vehement.

Here's a reminder that Season 2 of The Fiery Priest is scheduled to air on Friday, November 8, 2024 in South Korea. The Fiery Priest is the second of Park Jae-Beom's "Justice Trilogy" as it's frequently called (Chief Kim aka Good Manager ; The Fiery Priest; Vincenzo in order of release) and I would love an invitation into screenwriter Park's brain because his creations are so very very good.

On this blog, I frequently talk about movies but dramas, specifically "kdramas," are another delight and from script to director(s) to casting to cinematography and soundtrack, this trilogy holds a special place for me. I think I could write a novel on the themes and scenes in Vincenzo alone. When not only the titular character but the entire cast keeps you watching, you know it's the good stuff. So happy all three shows were twenty episodes and didn't follow the more current trend of shortening the season. The slow character development enabled the viewer to discover individual stories without muddying up the plot too much.

I'm looking forward to watching as soon as Season 2 of The Fiery Priest is available for me to view, and if you haven't seen any of the above shows, I recommend them!

*Pictured above: Kim Nam-Gil as Father Kim (top) and Song Joong-Ki as Vincenzo. Two unconventional "heroes" fighting the good fight.

 2020 (56th) BaekSang Arts Awards - June 5, 2020

Best New Actress (Kim Da-Mi)

   Aynı adı taşıyan bir webtoon uyarlaması olan Itaewon Class, benim listelerimde ilk beşe girmeyi başaran bir dizi oldu. Gerek oyuncular/ oyunculuklar olsun gerek senaryo olsun tek kelime ile muazzamdı. Farklı konusu, alışılmadık bir kimyası olması beni daha ilk bölümden içine geçti. Konusu tek cümle ile özetlersem tam bir intikam hikayesi diyebilirim. Yer yer aşk serpiştirilmiş, arkadaşlık ile tatlandırılmış, zekice kurgulanmış bir yapımdı.

Park Sae-Ro-Yi (Park Seo-Joon), babası ile yaşayan asosyal bir çocuktur. Babası Park Sung-Yeol (Son Hyun-Joo) yıllar önce küçük bir cafe olarak başlayıp, günümüzde Kore’nin en büyük yemek/cafe zinciri halini almış bir firmada çalışmaktadır. Firmanın başkanı/sahibi Jang Dae-Hee  ( Yoo Jae-Myung) , Park Sae-Ro-Yi’i de oğlu ile aynı okula burslu olarak yazdırır. Babası, başkanın oğlu ile yakın arkadaş olmasını insanlarla iyi geçinmesini tembihler. Ancak okulun ilk günü Sae-Ro-Yi sınıfta zorbalık yapıldığına şahit olur ve öğretmen dahil kimsenin müdahale etmemesine anlam veremez. Yetiştirilme tarzı ve karakteri sessiz kalmasına müsaade etmez. Zorbalık yapan çocuğa attığı yumruk ile bütün dizinin ve hikayenin gidişatını şekillendirir. Zorbalık yapan çocuk ise başkanın oğludur.

Okul müdürünün odasında başkan, oğlu, Saeroyi ve babası toplanırlar. Başkan diz çöküp oğlundan özür dilemesini ister. Saeroyi ise asıl özür dilemesi gerekenin zorbalık yapan oğlu olduğunu söyler ve dimdik karşısında durur. Bunun üzerine okuldan uzaklaştırma alırken babası da işten kovulur. Konu başlangıçta biraz ağırmış gibi gelebilir ama kesinlikle dizi dram ağırlıklı değil. Hatta yer yer komedi, azıcık romantizm var. Dram ise intikam ile harmanlandığı için içinizi buruşturmuyor. İzlerken yorulmuyorsunuz, heyecanla akıyor bölümler. Aslında bir bakıma yeni nesil kore dizilerini temsil ediyor bile diyebilirsiniz. Kdrama klişelerinden kopuk, bambaşka bir konsepti var.

İntikam hikayesi dedim ama gözü dönmüş, kendine ve çevresine zarar veren bir intikamdan bahsetmiyorum. Burada işlenen intikam, zekice kurgulanmış ve başrol karakterin hayatına ince ince işlenmiş.  Park Sae-Ro-Yi, intikam almaya çalışırken aynı zamanda hayatı nasıl yaşamak istediğinin bilmecesini çözüyor. Aynı zamanda hedefi intikam almaya çalıştığı kişiyi mahvetmek değil, ondan daha iyi olmak.

Diziyi o kadar beğendim ki, fazla üzerine konuşup tadını kaçırmak istemiyorum. Karakterler renkliydi, konu zekiceydi, oyunculuklar şahaneydi. Ve OST’ler inanılmazdı. Müziklere bayıldım. Mekan seçimleri, çekimler, dizinin kurgusu kaliteliydi. Sinirlendim, güldüm, eğlendim, ağladım. Bütün duyguları bana yaşattılar. Uzun zamandır bu kadar kaliteli bir dizi izlememiştim. Keza oyuncudan da bahsetmek lazım. Park Seo-Joon!!! Sanırım ilk defa birinin görünüşünden ziyade oyunculuğunu beğendim. Birçok oyuncu oynadığı dizilerde hemen hemen aynı mimikler, ses tonu ve tavırlar ile rol yapıyor. Park Seo-Joon ise role o kadar girmiş ki, sonrasında onu başka yerlerde izlediğimde inanamadım. Karakter ile bütünleşmiş, dersine iyi çalışmış. Hatta daha önce bazı yerlerde izlemişim ama dikkatimi burada çekti diyebilirim. Dizinin yanı sıra oyuncuda favorim oldu diyebilirim.

Yan rollerden de ufak bahsedeyim. Park Sae-Ro-Yi’nin küçük bir grubu bir araya getirmesi ile ortaya çıkan farklı karakter ve kişilikler dizinin kalbini oluşturuyor. Ma Hyun-Yi (Lee Joo-Young) grubun aşçısı olarak karşımıza çıkıyor. Trans bir bireyi oynuyor olmasından dolayı dizi yayınlanırken baya destek ve takdir toplamış. Dizi içindeki karakteri de çok başarılıydı. Oyuncuyu daha önce Weightlifting fairy kim book joo dizisinde, Book Joo’nun yakın arkadaşı rolünde izlemiştik. Bir diğeri, Choi Seung-Kwon (Ryoo Kyung-Soo), grubun hem garsonu hem koruması olarak düşünebilirsiniz. Mafyadan ayrıldıktan sonra Sae-Ro-Yi ile çalışmaya başlayan bu karakterde oldukça renkli.  Öfke problemleri yaşayan ama her zaman arkadaşlarını korumak için ne gerekiyorsa yapan bir karakter. Ve grubun gerçek beyni olan Jo Yi-Seo(Kim Da-Mi). Kore kızlarının standart güzelliğine inat, özgün görünüşüyle grubun hem yöneticisi hem en küçüğüydü. Yüksek IQ sahibi bu genç kız, bütün satış stratejilerini ve reklam çözümlerini üsleniyor. Bir miktar sosyopat olması nedeni ile insan tepkileri ve duyguları konusunda zayıf olsa da, grup içerisinde kendine yer bulup insanları anlama yolculuğuna çıkıyor.

Bir kaç yan rol daha var tabi ki ama hepsinin üzerinden tek tek geçmek istemedim. Özellikle Park Sae-Ro-Yi’nin okula ilk başladığı zaman tanıştığı bir kızımız Oh Soo-A (Kwon Na-Ra ) var. Saeroyi ne anladı ne kadar tanıdı bilmiyorum bu kıza aşık oluyor. Dizinin uzunca bir bölümünde sadece ona aşık olduğunu söylese de gözle görülür bir aşk izlemiyorsunuz. Nefret bir karakter. Her bölüm ayrı ayrı söverek izledim. Dizinin başlarında söylediği ve yaptığı şeylere rağmen, kendisine ve karakterine zıt bir hayat yaşamayı seçiyor. Ah bir de kötü adamımız, yumruk yiyerek dizinin başlangıcına vesile olan başkanın zorba oğlu Jang Geun-Won(Ahn Bo-Hyun) var. Kendisini Her Private Life dizisinde ikinci adam rolüyle izlemiştim. Oyunculuğuna başarılı demeliyim ki hem kendisinden oldukça nefret ettirtti hem de onun adına üzüldük. Asıl kötü adam ise daha önce bir çok yerde izlediğim ve genelde komik, sevimli rollerde oynayan Yoo Jae-Myung’dı. Kötü adam rolü inanılmaz yakışmıştı. Hatta oyunculuğu o kadar iyiydi ki, kötü adam rolü üstüne yapışmadan son derece profesyonellikle oynamıştı.

Ve final, diziyi sevdiğim kadar finalini de sevdim. Yani özetle, on numara beş yıldız diziydi. İlle vıcık vıcık aşk izlemek istiyorum diyen varsa önermem ama onun dışında herkese gözüm kapalı öneririm.

Hellbound (Season 2)

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2024

Hellbound (Season 2, 2024, South Korea)

Director: Yeon Sang Ho

Writer: Yeon Sang Ho & Choi Gyu Seok (based on their own webtoon)

Mini-review:

I feel like I'm one of the few people who loved the first season of Hellbound. It used an original and terrifying concept to showcase a fascinating exploration of themes like religious fanaticism, sectarianism and media manipulation. And this second (and final?) season delivers the goods once again. Yeon Sang Ho continues to be a master director of action scenes, plus the performances he gets from this cast are simply superb. On top of that, the CGI is much better than it was in the first one; I'm glad they made an effort to improve on that. I'm sure many people will stay mad at the show for refusing to give clear answers until the very end, but I think that makes the viewer feel the same chaos as the characters. If this is really the end, I have to say I really enjoyed what this dark fantasy had to offer.

[thedooristhebluecushion]

I have been waiting for The Time of Fever for a year now and it was everything I dreamed about. Absolutely beautiful. Deeply moving story telling. Incredible acting.

But the only time I cried was when it ended and we didn’t even get a glimpse of Ho Tae & Dong Hee happy & living their best lives post Unintentional Love Story drama. It didn’t need to be much. Could have been an epilogue like they had for all the other episodes. If any boys deserve their domestic blissed out moment it’s these two and I’m so sad we didn’t get to see it.

Please drop any & all fanfic in the notes😔

[suzannahnatters]

I have finished watching MR SUNSHINE, and there was so much that I loved about this prestige kdrama. The writing of the heroine was SO good in how it discussed and defied some of the worse kdrama-heroine tropes. There was amazingly trenchant and deeply nuanced social criticism, gorgeous cinematography, lots of fascinating history, the warmest and most positive depiction of Christianity I've ever seen in a kdrama, men who drink respect women juice, the beautiful and angsty Gu Dong-Mae, FABULOUS period clothing, and rivals in love learning to put aside their differences in favour of shooting imperialists.

But the show has a major flaw - a flaw that was particularly interesting to me, because it's the precise sort of flaw that I would be most prone to. The screenwriter, who does such brilliant work in so many other ways, is clearly most fascinated by the themes and symbolism she keeps bubbling away in the story's subtext. The problem is that these themes and symbolism - which delightfully clever - are not actually supported by the storytelling, and particularly by the characterisation.

And it's a really fun, rich, resonant bit of symbolism: Ae-Sin is not just a character in the story, she's the living embodiment of Joseon Korea. She's beautiful, desirable, noble, privileged, gradually awakening to a life of hardship and struggle and resistance. Each of the three male leads in the story has a different complicated relationship with her. Eugene has run away from Korea, but returning as an adult cannot help falling in love with the land and the people in defiance of the nobility who mistreated him as a boy. Gu Dong-mae was horribly oppressed by his homeland but cannot help loving it anyway; the Korea which oppressed both men also saved their lives through small acts of kindness. And finally, Hee-Sung, Korea's richest son, is her approved betrothed, but past injustices committed by his family against the people Ae-Sin cares about stand between them. The three men fall in love, not with Ae-Sin, but with their homeland. They express their love for the woman by sacrificing themselves for the homeland; in dedicating themselves to her, they cannot help dedicating themselves to the fight for freedom.

This is why the story had to have a sad ending. None of these men can espouse the whole country; they can only die for her, while Ae-Sin - Korea itself - lives on, alone and victorious, even in exile.

This symbolism is itself delightfully rich, deftly painted, and rewarding to think back upon once you see it. There's only one problem: it doesn't. make. sense.

From the very start of the show, I felt a little impatient with the writing because the relationships between the heroine and her three suitors are so poorly developed. The feelings come out of nowhere. Take Gu Dong-Mae, for instance: he last met this woman when she saved his life as children. Now, it just takes a brush of her dress across his fingers to get him pining madly for her. Hee-Sung, after avoiding her for the best part of a decade, gets one glimpse of Ae-Sin at the washing-line and just like that conceives an undying passion for her. The central relationship, between Ae-Sin and Eugene, doesn't fare much better. The problem is that the story demands each of the male leads to sacrifice himself for Ae-Sin by the end of the show, and I simply couldn't understand why they should. They all have multiple other women pining for them, and Ae-Sin doesn't give two of them the slightest encouragement to hope. I wanted them so badly to find happiness with one of the other women, and they never did.

What MR SUNSHINE needed was not primarily rich and complex symbolism - it was believable characterisation and relationship development. As it was, the lack of substance to the relationships cheapened the grand historical tragedy which was being told. When at the climactic moment the last of the three leads sacrifices himself for the heroine, it felt cheesy and unintentionally funny, rather than tragic.

I loved so much about this story, but the heart of it never clicked for me, and it's a crying shame that with all that budget and talent, it wasn't better written. And that, for me, will be the central tragedy of MR SUNSHINE.

I know I need to calm the fuck down first but one word to describe episode 6: STRESS!!

📍I love seeing Hyun-woo and Hae-in having a...sort of second honeymoon in Germany but I couldn't really enjoy every scene because I'm stressing out at how fucking OBLIVIOUS the Hong family is like bitch y'all are surrounded by snakes and they're so complacent 😭😭😭 I mean it's not really their fault that there are opportunists who'd earn their trust first then slither their way to bite them in the ass, but I just find it ironic at how protective they are at their family business and wealth but they can't see through the REAL people who has every intention to bring them down.

📍Speaking of which, I have read a fan theory somewhere that Mo Seul-hee is the mom of Eun-seong and Da-hye. Could be, OR Grace could be Da-hye's mom considering how Grace acted towards her. But why are they so keen at bringing the Hong family down?

📍Maybe it's just me but I don't think Da-hye is that bad, I have a feeling that she'll eventually come to her senses and take Hyun-woo's side and expose Eun-seong and co.

📍My overthinker/delulu self thinks that Soo-cheol and Da-hye's baby is actually Hyun-woo and Hae-in's kid. I mean, it wasn't shown how they lost their baby...yet. So Hae-in either miscarried, or she gave birth to a still born child? But what if the child is actually alive and one of those evil bitches cooked up some shit to make it seem like Hyun-woo and Hae-in's baby died, and then that baby was registered as Soo-cheol and Da-hye's kid? I know it sounds insane, but we're only on episode 6 so more crazy shit could happen in the future episodes, you'll never know. But my normal self says I've watched too many Filipino dramas growing up (and yes, that shit happens a lot in Filo-dramas).

📍Speaking of that kid, another theory is...what if that kid is actually Eun-seong and Da-hye's? Soo-cheol is a dumbass, and again, those bitches could have manipulated that baby's DNA test result or something. Again, that's just me being an overthinker, also I hate my Filo-drama mindset.

📍Aunt Beom-ja being so concerned about Hae-in and her dad but I also appreciate the fact that she respected her niece's request to not tell anyone about her illness. I also hope that she'll be able to help Hyun-woo clear his name and uncover Seul-hee and gang's dirty little secret.

📍BUT Y'ALL KNOW WHO STRESSED THE SHIT OUT OF ME THIS EPISODE? BAEK FUCKING HYUN-WOO!!! I am so freaking annoyed that he didn't tell Hae-in about the divorce when he had the chance. He was probably worried at how Hae-in would react plus the latter was going through medical treatments so he probably didn't want to put too much stress on her, but Hae-in was bound to find out either way so...yeah I do get why he chose to keep the divorce to himself but he could have just told the truth and suck it up, and perhaps they could communicate better when it comes to issues like this.

📍One thing I noticed about Hyun-woo is that he's brave in so many ways but also a coward on one thing. I mean he talks with Hae-in about nice things and all, and he is his wife's confidante, but I don't think I've ever heard him talk the way Hae-in does, meaning he never had the balls to talk to his wife about the..."unpleasant" side of their marriage. Hae-in was able to talk to him about her illness, the last will and testament that her mom pressured her to write, and Hyun-woo didn't even think about bringing up the divorce papers.

Prior to episode 5, I really thought that Hae-in was the one who shut him out but it was actually the other way around. Wifey may seem cold and nonchalant but if there's one person she'd listen to, it's him. Perhaps he doesn't want to say something that would upset Hae-in but the point is...she's his wife, she's supposed to know what he thinks, how he feels about certain things, even the not-so-pleasant side of their relationship. I really hope that in the next episode or the episode after that he'll be able to communicate better.

📍Hae-in's mom is terrible af. Imagine blaming your own daughter for the death of your son. I mean she didn't deserve to lose a child, but it's unfair to put all the blame on Hae-in (like why?). It's not like she endangered herself on purpose, and she had the audacity to be upset when Hae-in did something nice to her in-laws? Like what is wrong with this woman? Why can't see realize her own mistakes?

📍I kind of teared up when Hae-in was telling Hyun-woo about the things the latter should do when she dies. She could die, and this show might give us a bittersweet ending but when that time comes I'd be really, really hurt. Also, Hae-in confessing that the only reason she wrote her will about Hyun-woo not getting anything should they divorce was so that she'll be allowed to marry him 😭 (just shows she fought hard for him and she'll do absolutely anything to be with him). God I hate her mom! And yes the epilogue was so cute, now we know that they have always been in-love with each other. But I guess...they need a time-out 🤷.

📍Hae-in called Hyun-woo "yeobo" 🥹🥹🥹
