A Time Called You

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2023

A Time Called You (2023, South Korea)

Director: Kim Jin Won

Writer: Choi Hyo Bi

Mini-review:

Someday or One Day is one of my favorite dramas, so I was both excited and wary about this remake. I have to say it doesn't fully capture the unrepeteable magic of the original, but as far as remakes go, this is a really good one. They kept the plot and the characters almost intact, and that's why it works. This story is just really f**king good, so as long as you stick to its essence, there's no way you'll end up with a bad show. This version is a bit more confusing, though, since they had to cut and sum up some stuff to fit everything into 12 one-hour episodes, but it still works. The acting is pretty great too. Jeon Yeo Been pulls off the dual role with ease, and I was pleasantly surprised by Ahn Hyo Seop's performance (although nobody will ever top Alice Ko and Greg Hsu). Tbh, my biggest complaint is the cinematography. This remake looks so bland and lifeless when compared to the original. Anyway, I had fun reliving this story through a slightly different lense, and I think A Time Called You will be immensely loved by k-drama fans who haven't watched the masterful original.

Parasite - A Divide In Class

Title – Parasite (2019)

Director – Bong Joon-Ho 

Cast – Choi Woo-shik, Park So-dam, Song Kang-ho, Lee Sun-kyun, Cho Yeo-jeong, Jang Hye-jin 

Plot – Parasite revolves around the Kim family of four living below the poverty line, struggling to make ends meet. But then (!!) the son of the family, Ki-woo (Choi Woo-shik), gets a business venture from his friend, Min (Park Seo-joon), to work as a tutor for the daughter of the rich, well-off Park family. This is the initial catapult into this story… Slowly (but surely), the Kims worm their way into the lives of the Parks like parasites…

At its core, this film is a social commentary on the deep-rooted societal issues of class division and economic inequality present in South Korea. It gives insight into the divide between the two classes and serves as a device to portray the grim contrast of the ever-growing gap between the rich and the poor. Parasite is a story that doesn’t necessarily have villains or heroes, just people who are products of their environments. This thriller-comedy explores the lengths people will go to support their families.

Before I delve into these influential characters that were created for this film, I want to address the recent passing of Lee Sun-kyun. Lee played the role of Park Dong-ik, the patriarch of the Park family, and he did an exceptional job of portraying a pompous businessman. Sadly, the actor took his own life on the 27th of December, 2023. This came as quite a shock, not only in South Korea but to the rest of the world. Lee Sun-kyun was a well-known K-drama actor known for his notable role in Coffee Prince (Lee Yoon-jung, 2007). The circumstance revolving around his death is one that I hope gives South Koreans an awakening to the worrisome problem of famous Korean stars feeling pressure into committing suicide as the only option for their personal issues. Lee Sun-kyun will be remembered as an outstanding actor.

The cast of this film worked insanely well together, which is reflected in how the characters interacted with one another. Each character brings a different aspect and perspective to the story. 

Park Yeon-kyo (Cho Yeo-jeong), the mother of the affluent family, fell for the scheme of the Kim family, thinking that she was making the best choices for her family. While this can be seen as wrongdoing by the Kims, they were left in a dire situation where this seemed like the best option. The system they are living in South Korea does not favour them, so why should they oblige to it?

From a technical standpoint, Parasite exceeds all expectations for a successful film. Places where this film truly excels are in the use of sets and props. One prop detail that stands out to me is the waste bin in the Park household. It can be a detail that is easily overlooked, but the waste bin is completely silent and only for $2300! This is obviously quite a hefty price for a bin, and Bong Joon-ho thought so as well, stating that he “and my (his) crew members were like: ‘What the f**k? What kind of idiot would buy a trash can that’s going to smell anyway?” The absurdity of the price of the bin is funnily enough fitting to something that would definitely be in the Park’s house. 

Bong Joon-Ho is able to convey his message in the division of class between the Kims and Parks through the different sets for their houses. The Kim family live in a basement flat at the bottom of a hill, symbolising how they are at the lowest, not only literally but also financially. They are crammed into a filthy apartment that is regularly mentioned as being pungent, to the point where it leaves a smell on them. Meanwhile, the Park family lives near the top of a hill, representing their financial prospects. This house is depicted as a grand architectural masterpiece that is always clean and tidy, thanks to the domestic housekeeper.

Bong Joon-Ho truly created a cinematic masterpiece with this film, and I am not saying this to be biased; he literally did. Parasite received the Palme d’Or from the Cannes Film Festival and four Academy Awards from the Oscars, including the ones for Best Picture and Best Directing. Bong achieved an incredibly difficult feat by receiving the most prestigious awards, and all for the same film. This mass international recognition from a South Korean film to a Western audience was a challenge, considering the language barrier, but despite that, in a historical moment, Parasite was the first non-English film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture. All these awards only further prove how Bong Joon-Ho is one the most credible and decorated directors of this age in cinema.

Concluding Thoughts – In the end, Parasite is a film that was deserving of all the awards and praise it received. I’m embarrassed to say it took me four years after its initial release to view the film; I feel that I missed out on its original hype, but regardless of that, I am very glad I thoroughly enjoyed it. This film captivates through brilliantly thought-through dark humour in a way that many other films strive to. I would highly recommend it to anyone who has yet to watch it!

My final rating – ★★★★★

(I forgot I had written out the entire lore of this drama)

----

Fictional sageuk drama script idea : "우정가", a tale of 5 young gisaengs (entertainers) who form a pseudo-idol group together. A tale of friendship, trust and music.

A gisaeng was a mostly female entertainer in the Joseon era. Belonging to the lowest class of citizens, the *cheonmin*, they were trained in fine arts, needlework and medicine, sang, danced, and entertained through poetry and prose, as well as sometimes sold their bodies to the higher classed (yangban) men, for a living, or worked at the royal court as courtesans.

In this fictional drama, I want to see 5 young girls from different backgrounds of the Joseon society try and break the glass box they were held in as gisaengs through friendship, wisdom and innovation. Now I do not claim this historically accurate at all - which modern sageuk even is? - but come on, there has to be *some*one that must have rebelled at least a little bit. I know they were punished. But still.

Timeline wise, I would want to set this in the later Joseon era as the three tier system of the gisaengs (일패 - rank one to 삼패, rank three) would exist by then. To be exact, let's say during the reign of Sukjong of Joseon (1674 - 1720). I personally feel like it would be fitting to put a story of women in an era where politics was deeply influenced by the women of the palace. And if the name "Sukjong" doesn't already ring a bell, the name " Jang Ok-jung", a.k.a. "Jang Hee-bin", or "Royal Consort Hee of the Jang family" will definitely ring a bell for Kdrama lovers. Often nicknamed "Joseon's femme fatale", this concubine of King Sukjong wrote her name in history by her beauty, greed, power hunger and her tragic ending. She has been portrayed in popular media more than 10 times as the lead role, by prolific actresses such as Yoon Yeo-jung, Jeon In-hwa, Jung Sun-kyung, Kim Hye-soo and Kim Tae-hee. It wouldn't be wrong to call Jang Hee-bin one of the most famous women in Joseon history.

With that in mind, I want to set the story in this era. Also, as someone who's head deep into "Ladies Of The Palace" (SBS 2001 traditional sageuk about the life of Joseon politician and former gisaeng herself, Jeong Nanjung), I want more female-oriented stories! So I decided this main cast is going to be just women.

My old Sageuk script, revised! ----- Madam Jung : Where is Yoo-hwa? She should have been here by afternoon. 유화가 어디냐? 오후까지 왔어야 했는데. Myeong Ae: She's in the palace today I think the Prince has taken a liking to her. 유화가 궁에 있아옵니다. 세자저하께서 언니한테 관심이 생겼다는 소문을 들었아옵니다. Madam Jung : I see. I hope she doesn't get swayed by the Prince to stay at the court. 그리하구나. 세자저하께 교태전에 남아있으라는 말 안듣게... Mi Hee : Why? If the Prince likes her, she might receive a lot of money. And maybe she will become his concubine! 왜 그렇습니까? 세자저하께서 언니를 좋���하신다면, 돈을 받고, 어쩌면 저하의 첩이 될지도 모릅니다! Madam Jung : Not every gisaeng's path leads to the court. Yoo-hwa is too naive to get into politics, and is too skilled to be an entertainment to the Royal family. 모든 기생들의 길이 궁까지 가야 할 필요 없다. 우리 유화가 너무 흔들리기 쉬워서 궁정과 정치에 멀리서 있어야 해. 또한, 왕실의 오락거리일뿐이 되기에는 얘가 너무 숙련되어있는데. Jin Yi : I've heard that the Consort Hee of the Jang family is a very greedy woman. Yoo-hwa would suffer a lot if she gets in that woman's way. As someone who has seen her since she was young, I am worried. 장씨 희빈마마께 욕망이 많은 여자라고 들었어요. 유화는 그 분에게 방해가 된다면 큰 고통을 겪게 될 건데. 얘를 오랫동안 보는 분이라서 걱정이 되옵니다. Jang Sook : Consorts are always greedy. I don't understand why. The court is splitting like a watermelon, the nation is being attacked on the shores, and these women give birth to four of five babies for what? For the land they receive? For their son to be the next king? So they can be the Queen Dowager and order their own son and the court around? 빈궁들은 항상 욕심이 많군요. 왜 그런지 이해하지 않아. 우리 궁정은 수박처럼 갈라지고 있고, 우리 나라는 해안에 심한 공격당하고 있는데도, 이 여자들은 무엇 때문에 계속 4명이나 5명의 아기를 낳습니까? 받는 땅을 위해서요? 아들이 생기면 그 불쌍한 아이가 다음 왕이 되기 위해서요? 대비가 되어 아들과 궁정을 명령할 수 있기 위해서요? Madam Jung : (raises hand) We are no one to judge someone else's situation and decisions in life. All we can do is live with it and give the children an example of how to,nor how not to, lead life. 우리는 다른 사람의 상황과 결정을 판단하는 사람이 아니다. 우리가 할 수 있는 것은 우리대로 먹고살고 우리 아이들에게 삶을 사는 방법에 대한 예를 드는 것일뿐이다.

Madam Jung : Cheon-geum-ah? 천금아? Cheon-geum  : Yes, mother 네, 어머님 Madam Jung : You are the closest to the age of 16 among the training gisaengs. Am I right? 여기 아이들 중에 16세 넘은 아이 너냐? Cheon-geum  : True, mother. ���사옵니다 Madam Jung : Then, have you decided on a gisaeng name yet? 그럼, 기생이름을 선택했느냐? Cheon-geum  : No, mother. 아니옵니다 어머님 Madam Jung : Why so, when I have reminded you mamy times? 몇 번 말을 했던게요, 그럼 왜? Cheon-geum : (stutters slightly, in a quieter voice) I- I intend not to take on a gisaeng name, mother. 저- 저는 기생 이름을 생기는 생각이 없아옵니다, 어머님 Wol-hyang : (looks at Eui-hye with a look of worry) Madam Jung : May I know the reason? 이유를 좀 전할할 수 있을까? Cheon-geum  : (voice becoming more firm) My mother gave me a name that I think is fitting to me. I want to be a heavenly lyre player even when I'm a gisaeng. Please understand this young girl's wish, mother. 이 소녀의 애미는 저에게는 잘 어울리는 이름을 지으셨다고 생각을 하느니, 기생이 되도 지금 이름대로 천상의 거문게꾼으로 유명하고 싶은 이 소녀의 순한 마음을 이해주십시오 Soon-ryeon : (leans over to Wol-hyang and whispers) when is her birthday? In how many months? 얘 생일 언젠데? 몇월? Wol-hyang : ( noticing that Madam Jung jas noticed Soonryeon whispering, signals with her hand, 2 fingers. SR gives a look of "well, whatever" and continues eating.) Madam Jung : (slightly angry) So you think these reasons give you the freedom that your friends don't have? What makes you think you have a choice? 그럼 네 친구들이 없는 자유가 네가 갖고 있는 줄 알았느냐? 선택이 있는 생각을 어떻게 들 수 있느냐? Cheon-geum : (quiet but firm) None of the other girls were born to a gisaeng and raised to be one. I have never known anything else but being a gisaeng. How can I change my name? 다른 얘들은 기생의 몸에 타어나지 않았고 기생이 되기 위해 키웠던 게 아니옵니다. 이 소녀는 기생의 삶 밖에 모른데, 어떻게 온 인생이 담긴 그 이름까지 버릴 수 있는 겁니까? Madam Jung : (breathes in sharply) Listen here, child... 아이야, 한 번 들어봐 Mi-hee : (signals to Madam Jung to let her deal with it) Cheon-geum-ah, think again. All of us have gisaeng names. 천금아, 또다시 생각해보렴. 우린 다 기생이름은 있다. Hwa-myeong : I am also the daughter of a gisaeng. I know that you're proud of your name, but I'm sure your mother would appreciate it if you followed the tradition. 저도 기생딸이라서 이름이라는 것에 대한 자랑스음 아주 잘 알아. 그래도, 우리 기생민의 전통을 따라하면 좋겠다. Myeong-ae : ... it is, in the end, what she did too. It wouldn't be wrong to do so. 천금양 어머니도 결곡엔 그렇게 했느니, 니 잘못이 아니라단다... Hwa-myeong : You think it would be disrespectful to your mother, isn't it? 이름을 바뀌는 것은 어머니에게 무례할 거라고 생각을 하냐?? Cheon-geum  : (nods timidly) Mi-hee : I can assure you, it isn't. In fact, I'm sure your mother, if she were here, would tell you to leave your pride behind and do the same as all your seniors, and be a honourable gisaeng. You understand? 장담할건대, 그렇지는 않아. 천금애미께 여기 계셨다면, 자존심은 버리고 모든 선배들과 똑같이 하고, 훌륭한 기생이 되라고 말씀하실 거예요. 이해했나? Cheon-geum  : (lowers her head at the sudden interjection of the seniors, embarrassed) I understand. I will think about it. 알겠아옵니다. 생각을 할 겁니다. Madam Jung : Lift your head up. I will give you time until the day before your 17th birthday. Have you understood? 고개를 들어라. 17번째 생일의 날까지 시간을 줄게. 알아들어시게. Cheon-geum  : Yes, mother. 네, 어머님

Jang Sook : Madam, isn't it commonplace to name the girls as soon as they enter the gyobang? 마님, 평소에는 이런 소녀들에게 교입할때 기생이름을 지우는 것은 맞습니까? Madam Jung : You are right, Mrs. Jang. But I feel like a child should be able to enjoy her name before having it taken away from her. 맞는 말씀이십니다.그렇지만, 이 아가들이 자신의 이름과 그것의 뜻을 알고 즐기는 시간을 주고 싶다고 생각하옵니다. Jin-yi : This gyobang really seems like the only one in the kingdom to do so. 온 왕국에서 이 교방은 이것을 하는거 유일한 것 같죠... Jang Sook : I have heard of another gyobang in the Pyongyang region, where they allow the girls to choose which field they study in, isn't that good too, madam? 평양쪽 또다른 교방에서 교입하는 소녀들에게 각자의 공부의 길을 선택하는 것을 허락하는 게 들었는데, 그리하는 것도 좋아하지 않습니까? Madam Jung : I disagree with that. I know that some of the best gisaengs especially in dancing and singing have come from that gyobang, but the gisaengs there lack an all-round education. A gisaeng should be able to do anything. 아닙니다. 저 교방 출신 기생들은 특히 무용과 창으로 아주 유명하지만, 모든 필요한 실력을 갖이지는 아니다. 기생이 모든 게 ���할 수 있어야 됩니다. Myeong-ae : I agree, mother. There is no reason a gisaeng who excels at poetry would also excel at dancing. 동의하옵니다, 어머님. 시를 잘 쓰는 기생은 무용을 잘 할 리 없네요. Soon-ryeon, Eui-hye and Hwa-jung : (look at  Wol-hyang with a smile, almost as if taunting her for her two left feet.  Wol-hyang lets out a sigh and stuffs her mouth with rice) Mi-hee : (notices  Wol-hyang, smiles) Mi-soon-ah (referring to Myeong-ae by her gisaeng name) , to realise you're wrong, you don't need to look far. 미순아, 잘못의 말씀을 했던 게 이해하기 위해 멀리서 보지마오. Wol-hyang : (even more embarrassed, she cowers and keeps on stuffing rice into her mouth) Mi-hee : I'm sitting right here, am I not, mother? 저 여긴 앉아 있지 않으나요, 어머님? Wol-hyang : (surprised at the sudden relevation, looks up) Madam Jung : I remember. 기억하단다. Mi-hee : (continues) There were days I practiced until my legs bruised, and I thought of Yoo-hwa (Yi-rin's gisaeng name) and cried, because I wasn't even as good as her toenail when it came to dancing. 유화의 발끝만큼도 춤을 못출 수 있단 것을 생각하며 울었고, 제 다리가 다쳤을적까지 연습하는 나날들이 있었군요 Myeong-ae : (laughs) And weren't there days I made the floor wet with my tears, as my voice cracked at all the songs, Geum-wol? 나도 노래할때 이상한 소리가 내서 내 눈물로 바닥을 젖은 날들이 있었다, 기억하나, 금월아? Hwa-myeong : I remember crying while playing the drums - I hit my head with a drumstick. (laughter erupts across the room) . I got a big red boil on my head like an egg. It's practice, practice and again practice, that made us to be as skilled as we are. (turns to Wolhyang) There's no need to worry at all. If there is a will, there is a way. 나는 복을 치다가 울었던 기억이 난데요 - 복에 내 머리를 부딪쳤다고... 이마가 겨란처럼 빨갛게 부어올랐어요. 역시, 연습, 연습 그리고 연습이 우리를 이렇게 만들어. 월향아,너 걱정하기가 필요없다. 너 이젠 마음 먹었으니 길이 발견될테니. (Wolhyang : bends her head, half in shame, half in relief. The seniors and Madam Jung smile, and everyone continues eating)
