Hiii!

You got me curious and now I have to ask. What are your all time favourite kdramas? Or the ones that you would recommend without hesitation?

Have a great day! ♥️

Thank you for waiting for me to compile my thoughts, choosing dramas that mean a lot to me isn't easy. But here are the ones I enjoyed and aren't talked about enough:

Encounter: Subversion of popular tropes will always be more interesting to watch. Here we have a heroine as the isolated CEO and male lead as the sweetest man to exist, sweeping her off her feet with adventures while completely respecting her position. Song Hyo Kyo gives a subtle but excellent performance, which made me love her acting way before she cemented it with The Glory

Guardians/ Lookout: I can't believe this wasn't as popular as Vincenzo, cause it damn deserves it. It's a story about blood-filled revenge, but from a woman who uses her pain to serve other people. Lee Si Young is phenomenal.

I Need Romance 3: Kim So Yeon can do anything, but seeing her as a careless 30-something as executive with a pet giraffe and a closed heart did something to me. She's the most imperfect, funnily relatable, brass and interesting. She just needed the annoying kid she used to babysit -now turned hot musician- to unlock her loving side. Sung Joon is the hottest a man has ever been.

Something In The Rain: Take all the societal problems Korean women are facing and weave a precious love story around it. It should be impossible, but they've made it work. The show excels in its depictions of casual intimacy, work life and friendships, nothing is exaggerated for effect. It flows through you like a song. And the ending wasn't bad, if you expected a fairytale you should grow up. It's a horrible reality, wherein lies love.

Search WWW: the ultimate story about women. This made me love kdramas. Three main players whose agendas clash with their ethics in the war of capitalism and surveillance. Three love stories, each hitting different strings. The ultimate modern classic. Memeable to death.

Ms Perfect and Woman of Dignity: it's not accurate to put these two together, but they represent the best that makjang has to offer. They're truly about how a woman finds her voice after being betrayed and how to take revenge on the people you thought had your back. And find a hotter man in the process.

The Penthouse: all its success made people forget it had the tightest script for two seasons. The writing was unmatched. It gave me my genius revenge queen Su Ryeon, who ran circles around every opponent, while keeping her warm heart and kindness intact. Don't watch the last three episodes, but other than that, it deserves its spot on the drama pantheon. The sweetest unexpected romance as well.

Honorable mentions:

Flower of evil

Weightlifting Fairy

Romance Is A Bonus Book

She Would Never Know

I had to keep it to korean dramas, but I've watched japanese, thai and chinese as well, for another time.

밀수 (2023)

[toastinthegrass]

[passionforfiction]

Arthdal Chronicles

The first season of this fantasy story hits close to home. It depicts the cruelty and greed of villages that have the resources, food and technology to take advantage of others. The story doesn't waist time, the first episode starts with the Arthdal leaders asking the Neanthals to become part of their power. The Arthdal are afraid of the peaceful but strong Neanthals and pretend to negotiate, knowing they are not interested. And what do they do? The Arthdal leaders trick their own people and kill the Neanthals in order to take their lands. Asa Hon learns this when she is in the middle of the attack, and in order to safe Neanthal children, she leaves with a child and Ragaz, with whom she later has children with.

Arthdal continues to annihilate weaker villages, taking them as slaves for hard labor. It is Tagon, an Itgu in hiding, that makes all this possible for Arthdal. And even though he is loved by the village as a hero, his father and other leaders are trying to find ways of killing him, including making Mihol's daughter, Teaelha, into a spy. Even though Tagon is cruel, there is an innocence to his longing to be loved and accepted by the people. His relationship with Teaelha is of a love stronger than their ties to their families and interests. And even though we don't like what he does, some times we do wish him success in his endeavors and fight against the Arthdal leaders for power.

But it is the story of the Wahan Tribe that reminds us that Tagon and all Arthdal are cruel and greedy people that have no respect for others. This is a peaceful tribe in a far away land. They are more like Neanthals in their believes but they are also prejudice against Itgus like Eunseom, whose mother leaves him there before she dies. Eunseom's only true friend is Tanya, the daughter of the priestess and scientist of the village.

It is almost impossible to reach the place but Tagon and the Arthdal leaders find the way to reach the land, it takes them 10 years to reach it and less time to destroy it and take its people as prisoners and slaves. Here we see the struggle of these people who get separated, sold into slavery and fight with each other and their enslavers in order to survive. But it also shows the Wahan people mesmerized by the innovations and way of life in this civilized village.

Tanya ties Eunseom to her by naming him her dream and he will do anything to save her, but destiny takes them into two different paths. These two characters are also very naive, their innocence and sense of justice is what makes others follow them. They both want to forge a world where everyone is equal, no prejudice against people that are different, everyone on equal standing.

Tanya's relationship with Saya is a sad one at best. She is using Saya while Saya genuinely likes her. And even though, at some point she sees him as a friend and cares about him, she still uses his affection towards her. But she is not the only one using Saya, so is Tagon who separated him from his mother when he was a child and Teaelha who became his caregiver for Tagon. Still, Saya is not stupid and he knows how to play the game.

This first half ends with the downfall of the rule of the Arthdal leaders: Daekan, White Mountain, and Hae tribes; giving way to Tagon's rule under the name of Aramun; which damages the relationship he had with Teaelha. Tanya is now the high priest while Eunseom becomes a god for the Ago tribe and starts unifying weak tribes to end fights among them and focus on fighting against their common oppressor.

The second season starts 8 years after the final events of the first one. And the fighting is no longer centered on colonialism, but on taking down a threatening force that is not letting them continue with their expansion of territories. I have heard of people wondering why the change of actors for critical characters. I wouldn't have minded seeing the same actors since they are excellent ones and we got used to them. But I didn't mind the changes, I think that these new actors, brought some darkness to the characters that had been innocent and naive in the first season. They have learned to play the game and they are using what they have learned for their gain.

Tagon and Teaelha are no longer the close couple they had been, but they still love each other and have a son that unites them. Theirs is a tragic and powerful love story, tainted by the struggle for power.

In this half, we see Tagon's fall, and the rise of the ideology that drove Tanya and Eunseom into battle. But we are left with an open ending that promises more blood and restlessness. Saya wants Arthdal for his own since he can't have Tanya's love; and Teaelha wants to take Arthdal back as she promised Tagon; while Eunseom struggles to make Arthdal the land he and Tanya had envisioned.

It is the bloody story of a civilization in this fantasy world that reflects the truth about the history of our world so full of tyranny, blood and inequality.

It is not a story with clear lines and we will switch sides as their goals become twisted, but so is the story of rulers in the past and the present. This is a fantasy story, but it also criticizes what makes a country a country - it's bloody history of greedy men.

The Korean drama "Run On" has been in my watch list since it premiered on Netflix. I'm so excited to watch it now! Oh Mi Joo gives me courage to be a captionist and interpreter. 🥺

Alienoid: Return to the Future

Movies watched in 2024

Alienoid: Return to the Future (2024, South Korea)

Director & Writer: Choi Dong Hoon

Mini-review:

I'm gonna be honest: I barely remembered anything about the first part, except that it was a pretty fun piece of popcorn entertainment. Now, after a quick recap, I can say this sequel lives up to the first one in that sense. The plot gets more convoluted and some of the twists left me flabbergasted, but the outstanding cast makes it work. As with the first one, my favorite part was the mixture of sci-fi and fantasy elements with the period setting, although the parts set in the present are very entertaining as well. Also, while the CGI leaves a lot to be desired, the sets and costumes are all stunning. Anyway, Alienoid: Return to the Future might not be a landmark in sci-fi cinema nor Choi Dong Hoon's best movie, but it's engaging and fun enough.

[tinyreviews]

For a story with such gore and darkness, the style is kinda a dissonance. I am watching it for Kim Hye Soo really.

Smugglers (Korean: 밀수; Hanja: 密輸; RR: Milsu) is a 2023 South Korean action crime film directed by Ryoo Seung-wan, who co-wrote the film with Kim Jeong-yeon. The film stars Kim Hye-soo, Yum Jung-ah, Zo In-sung, Park Jeong-min, Kim Jong-soo, and Go Min-si.

Perfect Family (2024)

[watchingalotofmovies]

Kill Boksoon

Kill Boksoon    [trailer]

A single mother who is a renowned hired killer finds it difficult to achieve a balance between her personal and work life.

The official summary is much more accurate than the action heavy trailer which can be considered misleading. This is slightly more social drama than action movie, even if Boksoon's indeed a contract killer and there are a number of fight scenes. Which explains the presence of character actress Jeon Do-yeon.

But because the movie spends considerable time with her problems of raising her kid it has the effect that it makes you think about the implications of Boksoon's profession. Movies like John Wick firmly take place in movie land, which makes it considerably easier to accept the violence. But once that illusion is broken, it gets more difficult to "enjoy" the killings. The opening sequence with the samurai still feels "cool". But then, for example, the later meetings of the killer organisation were difficult for me to take seriously in light of the social conflict.

 Dizilere yorum yazmadan önce başka insanların ne yorumlar yaptığını okuyorum. Benimle aynı düşünen var mı, benim düşüncemi benden güzel ifade eden olmuş diye ufak bir merak giderme turu atıyorum. Bu dizi için okuduğum yorumların hepsi iyiydi. Bütün yorumlar bayılmadık ama sevdik tadındaydı. Hepinize, siz çıldırdınız herhalde demek istiyorum. Dizinin elle tutulur hiçbir yeri olmamasını geçtim, Lee Dong-Wook ve Kim Beom olmasaydı gözle görülür bir yeri de olmayacaktı. Yapmayın gözünüzü seveyim. Nasıl beğenmiş olabilirsiniz. Neresini beğenmiş olabilirsiniz. Aklım almadı.

Konusunu anlatmak için bile takla atmak lazım. Kimse kusura bakmasın spoiler verdim diye üzülemeyeceğim. Bence zaten bunu okuyun ve izlemeyin. Efendim, bundan 600 yıl önce ormanın ruhu olarak yaşayan dokuz kuyruklu bir tilki varmış. Dokuz kuyruklu tilkilere Gumiho deniyor. Orman ruhu olan Lee Yeon (Lee Dong-Wook) sen git bir insana aşık ol. Sonra o insan ölünce de tilki boncuğunu ona ver. Neymiş tekrar doğunca onu bulacakmış. Tabi bunu yaptığı için ormandan kovulmuş. Gumihoların insanlara zarar vermesi yasakmış. Bizimki de ormandan kovulunca, bu tarz kötü yola sapan gumihoları yakalayıp cezalandırma görevini bizimkine vermişler. Bir nevi asker olmuş. 600 yıl boyunca tilki boncuğunu verdiği kadını aramış durmuş.

Tilki boncuğunu verdiği kadın ise Nam Ji-A (Jo Bo-Ah)’dır. Bu ablamızda sağ olsun, oyunculuk sıfır senaryo da sıfır olunca bomboş bir görüntü çıkmış ortaya. Nam Ji-A’nın küçükken ailesi bir trafik kazasında gizemli bir şekilde kaybolmuş. Yıllarca hem bu gizemi çözmeye hem de ailesini bulmaya çalışmış. Hatta senaryo gereği totolarından bir meslek uydurmuşlar kızımıza. Kendisi; doğaüstü olayları, mitleri ve şehir efsanelerini araştıran bir televizyon programı yapımcısı. Yani yazar burada diyor ki, bu kız mistik yaratıklara aşina, zaten onlarla büyümüş. Aigooo!

Ve bahsi geçmesi gereken bir diğer karakter ise, Lee Yeon’un kardeşi Lee Rang (Kim Beom). Küçükken abisi ormandan kovulduğunda, insanlar ormanı yakmışlar, yıkmışlar. Lee Rang da köyleri basıp insanlardan intikam almış. Herkesi parçalamış. Lee Yeon da bunu yapan gumihoları cezalandırmak zorunda olduğu için kardeşinin karşısına dikilmiş ama öldürmek yerine kardeşi olduğu için ağır yaralayıp bırakmış. O zamandan beri Lee Rang, abisine kin besliyor ve intikam almak istiyor.

İşte böyle bir konu, böyle bir senaryo… Birde utanmadan 10’ar dklık 3 bölümden oluşan spin off yapmışlar. Onu da geçtim, 2.sezon için anlaşılmış. Dizinin kimyasını ilk bölümün sonunda çok net anlayabilirsiniz. 1. Bölüm sonunda karşılaşan Lee Yeon ve Nam Ji-A bir binanın 30uncu katında balkonda konuşuyorlar. Süper sivri zekalı kızımız sen insan değilsin, bak aha da sana doğru bildiğimi kanıtlarım diye kendini binanın tepesinden aşağı bırakıveriyor. Ulan salak, ya adam uçamayan mistik bir yaratık olsaydı? Nerden anladın uçabildiğini? Bu nasıl bir senaryodur? Ve bu dizi Kore’de inanılmaz reyting almış. Dizinin görüntü yönetmeni çöp, senaryosu çöp, oyunculuklar çöp. Parantez açayım, tekrar edeyim Lee Dong-Wook ve Kim Beom ikilisini ayrı tutuyorum. Lee Dong-Wook ile Goblin dizisinde tanıştım. Şahane bir insan, sevdiğim bir aktör. Kim Beom ile bu dizide tanıştım. Diziye rağmen sevdim.

Şimdi burada dizi çiftinden bahsetmek bile içinden gelmiyor ama şöyle söyleyeyim ki, aralarında uyum sıfırdı. Ne bakışmaları manalıydı, ki 600 yıllık bir aşktan bahsediyor… ne flörtleşmeleri sevimliydi, aynı yatağa girdiklerinde bile abi kardeş gibiydiler. Keşke öpüşmeselerdi… Ana çiftin aksine, dizideki abi kardeş ilişkisi muazzamdı. Lee Yeon ve Lee Rang sahneleri dizinin tek güzel yanı olabilir. Aralarındaki diyaloglar ve aile bağları seyirciye geçen tek duyguydu. Keza ikisinin aşkı bana geçti. Keşke hikaye iki kardeşin aralarındaki sorunu çözmesi üzerine kurulsaydı. Nam Ji-A karakteri hiç olmasaydı. Ahh keşke…

Hani lisede tiyatro için prova yapılır, sırası gelen sahneye çıkıp ezberini okur. Jo Bo-Ah sahnelerinin hepsi bana bu havayı verdi. Yönetmen, görüntü, ses, renk, ışık, senaryo her şey çok kötüydü çok. Ağladım sonuna kadar getirebilmek için. Bu kadar reyting almasına hayretler içindeyim. Diğer dizilerde hep mantıksızlık, havada kalmışlık ne bileyim sonunu yazamama gibi eleştirilerim olmuştu ama bu dizi resmen bambaşka bir seviyede kötüydü. Diğer dizilerdekiler hep eleştirel yorumlarımdı. Bu dizide yorum yapabilmek için kelimelerim kifayetsiz kalıyor.

Valla izlemeyin, ne diyim.
