Love For Love's Sake

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2024

Love For Love's Sake (2024, South Korea)

Director: Kim Kyun Ah

Writer: Kwon Cho Rong (based on the webnovel by Hwacha)

Mini-review:

Full disclosure: I'm not a huge fan of BL dramas. They rarely work for me tbh, for a wide variety of reasons that I won't go into right now. From time to time I fall for people's raves about one of these shows, only to end up disappointed. And, while this one is better than average, it didn't impress me that much anyway. There's clearly a strong emotional core at the center of the story, but the episodes are too short and everything feels rushed. The thing that saves it is Lee Tae Vin's performance and his fantastic chemistry with Cha Joo Wan; it's thanks to them that the last two episodes hit a lot better than what comes before. But yeah, it's clear that BLs in general just aren't my thing.

Best Actor (Jung Hae-In)

Best Actress (Han Ji-Min)

Bu dizi ile ilgili çok fazla sosyal medyada linç varmış. Diziyi izlemeyi bırakanlar, böyle şey izlemem diyenler, izleyip yerenler… uçsuz bucaksız bir mevzuymuş meğerse. Şimdi dizimiz kütüphanede çalışan sessiz sakin kendi halinde yaşan ve uzun bir ilişkisi olan hanım kızımız Lee Jeong-In(Han Ji-Min)’in bir gün alışveriş yaptığı eczanede, eczacı çocuk Yu Ji-Ho(Jung Hae-In)’dan etkilenmesi ile başlıyor. Aslında Yu Ji-Ho kızımızdan daha çok etkileniyor. İki tarafta ilk başta bunu kabul etmese de ilk kendinden emin olan kişi Yu Ji-Ho oluyor. Ama kızımızın sevgilisi olmasından dolayı bir adım atmıyor. Adım atmamasının ikinci nedeni ise bekar bir baba olması. Lee Jeong-In ise dediğim gibi uzun bir ilişki içerisinde. Erkek arkadaşı Kwon Gi-Seok(Kim Joon-Han) ile aralarındaki ilişki monotonluk ile sıkıcılık arasında gidip geliyor. Her ne kadar böyle yorucu bir ilişki içinde olsa da kızımızda eczacıda uzak durmaya çalışıyor. Önünde sonunda içinde bulunduğu durumu analiz edip, erkek arkadaşından ayrılıp duygularını kabulleniyor.

Şimdi tam bu noktada herkesler ayaklanmış işte. Vay efendim bu aldatmakmış. Böyle bir ahlaksızlığı izleyemezlermiş. Allah aşkına neler izlediniz de bir şey olmadı buna mı tepki veriyorsunuz. “Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo” diyorum. 8.prens karısının üstüne bunu da ikinciye alayım yanıma diye kıza hallendi de hallendi. Kızda kuzeninin kocasına iş atıp durdu. O okeydi bu mu ahlaksızlık. “Don't Dare to Dream” dizisinde kız hangi adamı seçeceğine karar veremediği için hadi aynı evde üçümüz yaşayalım dediğinde waov ne kadar çağdaş diye düşündünüz de bura da kadının duyguları değişip başka birinden hoşlandı diye mideniz mi aldırmıyor. Vallahi anlam veremedim. Yine ben bu ortam dedikodularını bir diziyi yazmaya karar verince öğrendiğim için pırıl pırıl bir kafayla izledim. Açıkçası da oldukça beğendim.

Öncelikle bu durumun aldatma olduğuna katılmıyorum. Eğer çok ısrar ediliyorsa da kabul edilebilir olduğunu savunurum. Uzun süreli ilişkilerde bir noktadan sonra tarafların ikisi de kendisini o alışkanlığın pençesine bırakabiliyor. Böyle olunca da içinde bulunduğu dururumu görmesi çok daha zor oluyor. Bunu fark etmesi için tetikleyici bir şey yaşaması gerekiyor. O alışkanlığın aslında onu mutsuz eden şey olduğunu kabul etmek çok kolay bir durum değil. Ayrıca da dizide anlatılan ilişkide Kwon Gi-Seok daha öncesinde ayrılmak istemiş ama o kadar alışılmış bir durum varmış ki ayrılamamışlar. Kızımız farkındalığını kucağına alıp ayrılmak isteyince ise, kıymete biniyor. Gurur meselesi haline geliyor. Ondan sonra vay efendim aldatmalı dizi pis kaka.

Bu kadar doğal bir süreci bu kadar abartmaları bana biraz manasız geldiği için bir miktar yükseldim. Buradaki konuya gelene kadar “Marriage contract” dizisinde böbrek için evlenmeye çalışılıyordu. Romance is a bonus book, Do do sol sol la la sol ve Something in the rain gibi dizilerde kendinden çok küçük erkeklere aşık kadınlar vardı. Forecasting love & weather dizisinde ise mevzu eş değiştirme tesadüfüne kadar gidiyordu. Bütün bu dizilerin çılgın bir hayran kitlesi var. Tepkiyse bunlara da tepki olmalıydı. Saydığım diziler ile ilgili yorumlarımı zaten yazmıştım, tekrar etmeyeceğim. Something in the rain dizisi ile bu dizi arasında çok fazla benzerlik bulduğumu eklemeliyim. İkisinin de başrolünün aynı erkek olması bir etken tabi ama iki kadın oyuncunun da aynı enerjiyi vermesi ikisinin de çok başarılı kadınlar olması da bir diğer etken. Sanırım bu diziyi daha çok sevdim ama ikisi de güzeldi.

Bana kalırsa dizi tam olarak sonbahar tadındaydı. Something in the rain’den farklı olarak karakterler yaşıttılar. Büyük kadın krizi yoktu. Her ne kadar oyuncu olarak aralarındaki yaş farklı diğer dizideki gibi olsa da karakterler yaşıt denildi, bize bir şey söylemek düşmez. Han Ji-Min bence şahane bir oyuncu. Çok kötü dayanamadığım dizisini de izledim, orada bile şahaneydi. Olumsuz söylenecek hiçbir şey yok. Jung Hae-In ise arkadaşlarımla aramızda “güzel seven çocuk” olarak biliniyor. Çok güzel seviyor. Rolüne öyle güzel giriyor, partnerine öyle güzel bakıyor ki… insan izlerken onun sevdiğini sevesi geliyor. Aman hiç üzülmesin istiyor. Bu dizide de bir sahnede kızımız ona sevdiğini söylediğinde ağlamaya başlaması şahane bir detaydı. Bütün o sevgiye ne kadar aç olduğunu daha önce ne kadar özlemini çekmiş olduğunu bütün çıplaklığı ile izleyiciye geçirdi.

Son olarak eski sevgili krizine de parmak basıp kapatıyorum. Bir insan bu kadar açık ve net bir şekilde reddedilmesine rağmen nasıl bu kadar yüzsüz olabilir aklım almadı. Hele ikisinin de babaları… Biz ayrıldık dedikçe düğün planı yaptılar. Tam cinnet geçirmelikdi. Ben diziyi beğendim. Farklı duygularla, karakterleri anlayarak, sakince izledim. Tavsiye ederim.

I saw this post about ppong jin and deul re and can't stop thinking about them.

I've started revolutionary sisters for them.

I'm on ep 6 and it's such a struggle to get through them due to the main sisters being so unlikeable.

My favourite Kdramas (so far)

Currently watching: When the Phone Rings , Light Shop, and Vincenzo

My to watch list, Venn Diagram of my favourite kdrama things, favourite male and female actors, my parent trauma tracking, my Truck of Doom tracking, and my Text Posts

My Main is about Jane Austen

For tracking purposes. But feel free to suggest me new Kdramas

Alchemy of Souls: Visually beautiful, wonderful soundtrack, casting is amazing, story is very well thought-out, world-building is on point, loved all of it.

Trope subversions, Love Maps, Plot driven by fear

Moon in the Day: The most angsty enemies to lovers you will ever find in your life. It's completely enthralling. The past scenes with Do-ha are amazing. There are some plot holes and the secondary characters aren't very well developed, but I don't care. It was so good!

Text Posts, On the ending, the emotional journey, Webtoon vs. Drama

Doom at Your Service: The world-building is really well done, as is the symbolism. Doom is so weirdly lovable. Also has a great soundtrack.

Extraordinary You: the story gets a little drawn out in the middle episodes, but the concept is so gripping that I forgive it. The main character is really spunky and fun and the villain is probably the most interesting character in the show.

Lovely Runner: This is one of the cutest dramas I've seen in a while. Top tier cuteness. The story was really fun and I laughed a lot.

Text post, Another, Google Searches

W: Two Worlds: So good! So unpredictable! So Male Lead who was smart and actually acted smart! This is the dark companion of Extraordinary You and I loved every minute.

Happiness: the whole point of zombie horror is that the humans are the real monsters and Happiness delivered on that 100000%. Turns out Park Hyung-sik can also be serious and very good at punching people! Han Hyo-joo was also amazing. The slow burn romance was so cute. Loved it so much. Also, more of a murder mystery than a zombie show.

Zombieland Rules, Webtoon vs. Drama

Sh**ting Stars: the voluntarism in an unnamed African country wasn't great, but the rest of the show was so heartwarming and cute! There were lots of lovable characters, mature relationships, very cute friendships, and hilarious antics.

The Forbidden Marriage: The plot had lots of fun twists and the resolution was satisfying. I wish we got more So Rang hijinks in the later episodes, the hunting episode was my favourite with her running around everywhere like a maniac.

It's Okay to Not be Okay: My only critique is I wish they did more of the animations for fairy tales, but it's so good. The female lead had the most amazing outfits. The story is so good and the way they portrayed the brother's autism.

Revenant: I'm not usually into horror, but this wasn't too scary. It was very well written, the threads in the mystery all came together well. The characters were interesting and the supernatural stuff was cool. Really great acting.

Flower of Evil: Everyone was right again, it was really good. So many twists and turns, such good romance, so many good reveals. Loved it. Loved it enough to forgive the amnesia part.

Cdramas:

The Double: I came for the Very Extra Fan Boy (ML) but I stayed for the really interesting villains. Justice for Princess Wanning! Smart characters who stay smart the whole time my love!

Text posts

Love Between Fairy and Devil: it was as good as everyone said. I really liked the Dragon/Scammer romance, the mains were amazing, and it was a fun fantasy plot. I liked that the two weddings were predicted early but came true in the weirdest possible ways.

Fangs of Fortune: this drama is so fun! Found family demon hunters solving demon murder mysteries with a ton of queer sexual tension and banter. Also, VERY pretty, like the costumes are all works of art and I don't know how they did it. The scenery, the CGI, it's all top notch.

Text posts, Wen Xiao, Zhu Yan

Blossom: Historical rebirth where a wronged woman goes back in time and tries to change the past. I liked that the male lead was almost always about five minutes from regicide or patricide (justifiably). The intelligent female lead stayed smart throughout

My Journey to You: it's enjoyable but it didn't blow me away, I think I like xianxia better than wuxia (which this is if I understand the terms). The Serial Killer Vibes Poison Brother was my favourite.

Kdramas I have liked:

Family by Choice - this drama always felt so calm and happy, even when something terrible was happening, because Noodle Dad was always there to make everyone feel better. A great comfort watch.

The Judge from Hell - very interesting premise and solid execution, Justitia was believable as a demon and I like that she an Da-on met in the middle. The ending kind of dragged and it had some unexplained plot points (like the defeat of Satan)

Text post

Penthouse War in Life (S1 - 3): This is an over-the-top rich people problems revenge drama and it delivers. The writing was surprisingly good, the acting was great, and the costumes were very fun. Seasons 1 & 2 were very cohesive, S3 jumped the shark right away and everything that followed was nonsense, especially the ending. But hey, what a ride!

Twinkling Watermelon: It's good, it just wasn't for me. I enjoyed the female characters more than the main male characters (especially young Yi-chan, he really annoyed me). Eun-gyeol was too unrealistically perfect at everything. But it had nice character development and I shipped all the couples.

Kingdom: Loved it! But I refuse to put it in my top kdramas since S2 ends on a huge cliff hanger and apparently they aren't making any more. Boo to Netflix. This was more gory than Happiness, but I loved having zombies in a historical setting. (This one doesn't go in my terrible ending category because it's just the last ten minutes that suck, not the last one or two episodes)

Ending fix, why the ending sucks

A Shop for Killers: an interesting action drama. I was surprised by one or two of the reveals but they were well written, I liked the non-linear storytelling and Jian as a character. The backstory about Bale got a bit too dark/gory for me but I should have expected that with this genre.

Haechi: Really strong beginning, lots of action, I enjoyed the court drama and the action bits. The only problem was that once the main character stopped being a scrappy underdog, it was just a lot of him winning which got slightly boring. The ending was very pro-monarchy, but from everything I've been able to read in English, this guy was a good king so good for him I guess? Also, the female lead went from interesting to doing nothing with heart eyes.

The Atypical Family: A very interesting superhero/time travel story with a fun ensemble cast. I didn't love any particular character (except I-Na), but the story was really fascinating and I was never bored.

Doctor Slump: Very cute and relaxing watch. The FL's family was really cute, especially her mom! The focus on mental health was nice, though there was a bit too much of an idea that a relationship can fix your depression/PTSD. But still good!

Text post

Daily Dose of Sunshine: this made me cry multiple times. The visuals for how different disorders feel was fascinating. Good resolutions for the characters. I loved it all despite the unrealistic endings.

Extraordinary Attorney Woo: I'm blown away by their portrayal of autism. They don't shy away from making her ticks and mannerisms off-putting, awkward, and even somewhat annoying, but Young-woo has joy, she has imagination, she loves life. It's so much better than anything with an autistic character that I've seen in Western media. Not 10/10 because I did get a bit uninterested in the later cases when I wanted to know where the love story was going.

Choi Su-yeon

Oh My Ghost: I loved this one! Park Bo-young did an amazing job playing an oppressed shaman and possessed-by-a-ghost. It was very well written: there weren't any ridiculous sideplots and I was never bored. I did think the ending dragged a little bit, but overall I loved it.

The King's Affection: I think it probably could have been cut down to 16 episodes instead of 20, but very good. The female crown price is so scared all the time and I want to hug her, but also badass! It's a very hard line to walk but they do it well. Also, the bodyguard who is also an assassin is so hot and the costumes are great.

My Lovely Liar: very cute and occasionally very scary. Probably one of the most normal relationships I've seen in a Kdrama, no destiny or fate just two people who like each other. The murder mystery was well done, though I'm not sure how I feel about the final reveal.

Hospital Playlist: The epitome of slice of life. I enjoyed all the characters, especially Lee Ik-jun, The Ghost, and Long Winter (Jang Gyeo-ul) and the cute kid! I love the mom and the hospital director hanging out together. The band! I cannot stop listening to their songs!

What's Wrong with Secretary Kim: I liked that for once the big trauma didn't come from the parents, what a twist! I actually loved how ridiculously narcissistic the ML was and I loved the competent and mature FL. They didn't have any ridiculous misunderstandings and they never broke up. And the ML's friend was very funny.

King the Land: The show got better as it went on. The female lead was so competent and sure of herself. The parts about the friends' struggles was heartbreaking a lot of the time. I also loved how positive the female relationships were.

Kdramas with Great Beginnings and Terrible Endings (I don't mean sad, I mean they squandered their potential):

No Gain No Love: this drama barrelled through every sexually conservative expectation for Kdramas. They really defeated a bad guy with glow-in-the-dark dildos. Who would have ever imagined? I loved the leads, but the ending was lacking in that Hae-yeong never achieved her career ambitions. The love story was great though and I've rewatched parts of it already.

Text posts

Because This is My First Life: The ending was terrible and gross, but the female characters were so well written and fleshed out that I can almost forgive it. I related so much to all of them. Also, the best explanation ever for why a woman would choose a marriage without love.

Queen of Tears: I loved the set-up but for me it lost it's way at the end. Too many dramatic moments and the Magic Cancer surgery and Magic Amnesia Month were just too much of a strain on my ability to suspend my disbelief. But the performances were very good, from the leads and the secondary characters, and the premise was good. I enjoyed like 80% of the show.

Text posts

Captivating the King: I'm struggling to rate this one. The ML was amazing, but the FL seemed to just always be wide-eyed scared/worried. The writing was great for the first half, but the ending was ambiguous in a way I didn't enjoy. The intimate scene in Ep 8/9 was awesome, but then we didn't really get more. I wish they had stuck the landing. Smart character became dumb.

Marry My Husband: very fun drama, I especially enjoyed Su-min and Min-hwan, who were some of the most deep villains I've seen portrayed. However, I hated the Yu-ra storyline and I felt like the ML kept the secret of his death for way too long. Also, no happy ending for the secondary couples! I wanted more screen time with them.

Webtoon vs. Drama, Text Post

The Story of Park's Marriage Contract: It was fluffy and fun, I loved Sa-wol the maid, we should have had more of her! I hated the ending though, so much. Just so bad.

Kdramas that are So Bad They Are Somehow Good:

Perfect Marriage Revenge - This show did exactly what it set out to do, be completely over-the-top dramatic. The male lead looks like a Ken doll dressed by an eight year old, the mothers have the most over the top outfits and hairstyles ever, someone eats DNA test results, it's a delight to watch.

Hwarang: really great acting despite a mediocre script, but man so many plot holes and unresolved plots. I never totally decided if the Queen Dowager was actually trying to help her son or just holding on to power and I feel like they should have made that clearer. Also, what was that love triangle??? But I did enjoy myself the whole time.

Dreaming of a Freaking Fairytale: the acting was good enough that except for the first episode, I enjoyed myself the whole time. Also so many good kissing scenes! Fun subversion of the Cinderella trope.

Other Kdramas I've watched:

Cinderella at 2am: It was cute, but I ended up liking the second couple more and I wish they'd had more screen time. I don't think the male lead is a very good actor either.

Perfect Family: the story was engaging enough but it had such a weird ending. Like not dissatisfying, but just strange? Also, my favourite actor was dead basically the whole time, which I knew going in but it still made me sad.

The Red Sleeve: full review here and also here, but basically, I loved the Crown Prince's story, but the female lead fell flat. They never sufficiently explained the FL's emotional journey and they also kept ruining female characters. Justice for the Queen Dowager!

Soundtrack #1: I hate endless, hopeless pining and that's all this was. It had it's cute moments, but I always felt like the male lead was in pain and I didn't enjoy that.

Hospital Playlist 2: Somehow it wasn't as good as the first season, I found myself actually getting bored. But it was nice to see all the couples get together.

Goblin/Guardian the Great and Lonely God: The roommate stuff is hilarious! It did move slowly at times, I wanted the Grim Reaper/Sunny stuff to move faster. I got really annoyed at Kim Shin for not being honest with Eun-tak. Sometimes the product placement annoyed me. But it's very beautiful and I was very invested in everyone. Problem is, I don't think I ever want to watch it again.

Tale of the Nine Tailed + 1938 - It's fun, but the lore/world-building don't make a whole lot of sense. The Serpent is pretty over powered in S1 and really ought to have won. 1938 was better but the female mountain goddess made zero sense as a character. Lee Rang is probably the best part of the whole series, and his little murder fox girl in S1 or mermaid girl in S2.

Castaway Diva: I love the songs and the found family parts, but the story was lacking. Especially the older singer's story made very little sense and didn't come to a satisfying conclusion. And why not show us a little of the main couple being together?

Hotel del Luna - I enjoyed the ghost parts but the dynamic between the main couple was a mess. He is so unconditionally nice and she is such a jerk to him!

Strong Girl Bong-Soon - I loved all the parts with Bong-Soon and Min-hyuk, like he was the cutest, sweetest boy ever, but everything else was kind of annoying. And the kidnapper parts were really creepy! I just wanted Bong-Soon to smash more things. I also hated Guk-doo and I wanted all the women to dump his ass.

Business Proposal - It was cute, but it bothered me that Ha-ri wouldn't just talk to Tae-moo about her concerns about dating him. Ha-ri may be the only female lead ever with a healthy family dynamic, yay for her! The secondary couple was fun.

Death's Game - I enjoyed the genre and actor switches at first, but then it seemed to veer into being about the serial killer CEO and then back to being about suicide and the resolution left me unsatisfied.

Webtoon vs. Drama

My Demon - It was fun, but the world-building wasn't great and the ending was fine. I felt like it tried to be Doom at Your Service but failed (there were many, many references/thefts).

Destined with You - I really liked some parts of it, especially the leads and I actually liked the office romance with Hong-jo's boss (until the last episode), but they left so many things unanswered that I wish were revealed! It's like the writers forgot it was a fantasy drama halfway through and just went in a totally different direction. It makes me angry.

The Uncanny Counter - The concept was good, the actors were good, the chemistry between the actors was amazing, but the story went way off the rails. So Mun just became way too over-powered and the plot needed more balance. I wanted more demon catching and less mayor stuff. I did like the bully being saved and reformed.

100 Days My Prince - I hated the main couple, he was just too distant and she should have figured out who he was like 10 minutes in. It felt like they only got together because he was obsessed with her, I would have preferred the nice face-blind guy. I ended up liking the peasant friend couple and the murderous princess and her assassin boyfriend better.

Started but not finished:

Hometown Cha Cha Cha - I hated it. Dropped at 9/16. Review. Frustration. Moving - I started it, it seems really slow. I think I'm four or five episodes in. The Crowned Clown - First episode was way too dark! Live Up To Your Name - Acupuncture is magic? Moonlight Drawn by Clouds - the first episode seemed bonkers Strong Girl Nam-Soon - could not even force myself to watch it. Total mess The Impossible Heir - Even Lee Jae-wook couldn't save this messy plot. My Sweet Mobster - stopped watching at Ep 10, I couldn't handle the jealousy and I found the FL really boring. River Where the Moon Rises - the pacing is bad (always seems like they are running around) and for some reason I cannot with the ML's super white teeth in the year 500 A.D. Ep 11/20 Our Blooming Youth - it has it's moments, but it started out creepy and most of the time is just silly. I do want to know how the mystery unravels but not enough to care right now 12/20 Fated to Love You (You are My Destiny) - I really liked the first episodes but after the miscarriage, it just seems like unnecessary delay of getting them back together. 14/20

Weak Hero Character Names

For those who don't know, the Weak Hero webtoon anglicized a bunch of the characters' first names from Korean to English. They don't do this for newly introduced characters anymore AFAIK, but all the names they anglicized initially have been kept that way.

Since I've gotten a few people asking about the names, so I decided to compile a list of their original Korean names. You can find amost of these on their character profiles on the Weak Hero fandom page, but I figured people would appreciate having a quick reference that is all in one place. Hopefully this helps people learn/connect their original names.

Remember, this is not a full character list, it's for finding the Korean names of the characters that had their names anglicized.

‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’ Season 2 Finds Its Joo Dee, Long Feng, The Boulder and Casts ‘Sympathizer’ Star Hoa Xuande (EXCLUSIVE)

Misipeka will play The Boulder, a professional earthbending wrestler. Faberes will play General Sung, a high-ranking Earth Army commander. Sharma will play a new character named Amita.

It should be noted that the live-action version has already made several changes to individual characters as well as storylines, so these versions of the characters mentioned above may not correspond exactly to their counterparts in the original show. 

The new additions join returning cast members Gordon Cormier, Kiawentiio, Ian Ousley, Dallas Liu, Elizabeth Yu, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, Daniel Dae Kim, Momona Tamada and Thalia Tran. It was previously announced that Miya Cech will be joining the series as Toph Beifong.

Bora! Deborah / True to Love (2023)

This show brought me alot of joy. Everytime a new episode dropped, I ended up smiling like a kid at Christmas. It also made some interesting choices when it came to romantic relationships that I was not a fan of...

What Worked

Show was funny, and comedy is hard! There were times when they made it look easy, and (ironically) that's when you know everyone probably worked their butts off behind the scenes to make it happen. I especially liked the choices they made in the way it was shot and just the overall comic timing by the actors. Just some fun performances.

The writers knew how to play well with romantic tropes. We had everything from an over the top makjang love quadrilateral, to a hate-to-love, to a workplace romance, to fake dating, and eventually a friends-to-lovers arc, all in one series. And they mostly worked well. Because the cast and the directors knew when to play it straight and when to be funny.

What Didn't Work

The writing was not the strongest part of the show. There were some funny jokes, but most of the humor was from the way it was shot and the way the actors played it. From discussion online, alot of people had a problem because they went into it expecting a rom-com and they ended up with a sitcom that had a strong romantic plotline. Knowing that going in, might have helped.

There were two big plotlines that bothered me. The first was the romantic arc between the CEO (Han Sang-jin) and the office assistant (Bang Woo-ri). The writers did what they could to make it seem less ick, but they would have been better off doing anything else. It didn't bother me tons, but it just felt like a wasted plotline.

I was also bothered by the story with the best friend (Lee Yoo-jeong) and her husband. The characters themselves were okay, and the actors were good, but it felt like a recycled B-plot from a bad American sitcom.

There were alot of other little issues (especially with the "noble idiot" thing they had Lee Soo-hyuk doing in the last two episodes—just tell her how you feel maaan!), but no show is perfect and the good far outweighed the bad for me.

The Performances

Yoo In-na as "relationship expert" Yeon Bo-ra. The smartest thing the showrunners did was casting her as the lead. I hadn't seen her onscreen before (Guardian: The Great and Lonely God is still waiting for me), and I was completely charmed. Even when the character was doing something completely ridiculous and cringey, I still enjoyed watching her going through it. And as someone who suffers from alot of second-hand embarrassment, this is no small feat.

Yoon Hyun-min as "grumpy editor" Lee Soo-hyuk. This actor spent most of the show playing the grumpy straight man to all the antics going on around him, so when he had a moment of genuine comedy (or sadness), it hit extra hard. He had great chemistry with Yoo In-na and was fun to watch as well.

Joo Sang-wook as "clueless CEO" Han Sang-jin. I really liked the dynamic between him and Yoon Hyun-min. Whenever they had a scene together it was just great. His romantic arcs were mixed. I liked what they did with his character and the ex-wife. I did not like the office romance thing they tried to do (though that was more on the writers).

Hwang Chan-sung (aka Chansung) as "dirty cheater" Noh Joo-wan. The actor did a good job making this guy seem pathetic and hate-able. Maybe they did too good a job as it was almost hard to believe that Bo-ra would be stuck on this character the way that she was. They make sense of it, mostly, but the main reason why it's believable is that (sadly) there are too many guys like that out there in real life.

Park So-jin as "the bestie" Lee Yoo-jeong. I really enjoyed her performance, in spite of the terrible story arc the writers gave her. The scenes with more than just her character and Yang Jin-woo were generally good. The writers (unfortunately) turned her into this "too clingy" wife in the background and sometimes that was funny or touching, but often it was annoying.

Kim Ye-ji as "little sis" Yeon Bo-mi. Her arc in the first half of the show was great. I loved the few scenes she had with Lee Soo-hyuk as well. I think the romantic arc she had was mostly very sweet, but not that interesting. It ended up in a decent place, but it just felt off at the start.

Koo Jun-hoe as "total himbo" Yang Jin-ho. The writers made some questionable choices with how they setup the romance between his character and Bo-mi, but his performance kept it from being too weird (at least from an audience point of view). He was a pure cinnamon roll and watching him being bounced around by all of these grumpy jaded people was funny and great to watch. I liked the middle and end-points of the romance arc, but I mostly just enjoyed watching him for his reactions to everything else going on.

Lee Sang-woon as "sitcom husband" Yang Jin-woo. I think the actor did okay with what he was given. He did great when playing off the other characters, but the entire story with his wife was just off and not that interesting to watch. There was some good comedy in there, but the writers needed to do more than recycle old sitcoms to make this caricature into a relatable person.

Song Min-ji as "girl boss" Seo Su-jin. I liked what they did with her character. Both the story with her ex-husband, and just the way she interacted with the rest of the cast was just great. I would gladly watch a spin-off show with her as the lead, though I don't know if this particular show needed more of her than we got.

Hong Hwa-yeon as "office assistant" Bang Woo-ri. There were moments when I found the character very relatable, and some of that was on the quiet performance she gave. But I don't like the story the writers gave her.

Kim Ji-an as "the clingly ex" Lim Yu-ri. I mostly liked the way this character was portrayed, I just felt like the writers didn't quite know what to do to make her seem like a real person. Mostly, she was just there to cause drama, and that's okay, but not ideal.

Everyone else. There were some good character actors in there and they didn't let the minor characters down as much as lesser shows do. I especially liked the moments with the office workers getting the best of the clueless CEO.

TL; DR:

This show was funny and charming and I will undoubtedly rewatch it at some point. The OTP was fun and tropey and the humor really worked for me. Not everyone will like the show, but those that do, will like it alot.

START-UP // KDRAMA DİZİ YORUMU

UYARI : Yazılar genel olarak spoiler içerebilir. İçermeyedebilir.

İmdb: 8 Benim puanım: 8

Drama: Start-Up Hangul: 스타트업 Director: Oh Choong-Hwan Writer: Park Hye-Ryun Date: 2020 Language: Korean Country: South Korea Cast: Bae Suzy, Nam Joo-Hyuk, Kim Sun-Ho, Kang Han-Na, Kim Joo-Hun

Farklı mesleklerin konu edildiği dizileri hep seviyorum, bu dizi bize yazılımcıların dünyasına kapı açıyor. Genç girişimlerin yaşadıkları mücadele ve yarışı izlemek oldukça keyifliydi. Hedeflerine ulaşmak için başlarına gelebilecek durumları alternatifli olarak bizlere gösterdiler. Bir izleyici olarak birçok duyguyu bana yaşattılar. Teknolojinin farklı yüzlerini en etkili şekilde gördüm. Aynı zamanda insanı motive eden bir tarafı da vardı.

Seo Dal-Mi(Bae Suzy) ve Seo In-Jae(Kang Han-Na) ortaokul ve lise çağlarında iki kız kardeştir. Anne babalarının aralarındaki anlaşmazlıklar ile diziye giriş yapıyoruz. Yaşanılan aile için dramdan sonra Dal-Mi babası (Kim Joo-Hun) ile In-Jae ise annesi (Song Seon-Mi) ile kalıyor. Babaanne Choi Won-Deok (Kim Hae-Sook) ise bütün o kucak dolusu sevgisi ve şefkati ile hem bizi hem kızları karşılıyor. O nasıl güzel bir büyük anne karakteriydi, resmen aşık oldum. Kendine ayrıca mini bir hikaye yaratan büyükannemiz küçük bir yemek dükkanı işletiyor. Bir gün sokakta tek başına kalmış bir çocuğa yardımcı oluyor. Han Ji-Pyeong (Kim Sun-Ho) adına çok zeki ve çalışkan genç bir çocuk sokakta kalmıştır. Anne babası ve gidecek yeri olmayan bu çocuğa büyükanne kucak açar. Önce yağmurda akşam sokakta kalmaması için dükkanın anahtarını verir. Sonra aralarında tatlı bir arkadaşlık oluşur. Ji-Pyeong dükkanda kalması karşılığında büyük annenin işlerini yapar. Bu sırada anne babası ayrılan Dal-Mi’ye üzülen büyük annenin aklına bir fikir gelir. Torunu çok yalnız kaldığı için ona hayali bir arkadaş verecektir. Ji-Pyeong’dan ona mektup yazmasını ister. Bir şekilde Ji-Pyeong’u ikna edince, o günün gazetesinden Dal-Mi yaşlarında bir çocuğun adını alırlar. Ve büyük anneyle beraber Dal-Mi’ye mektup yazmaya başlarlar. Bir süre sonra mektupları Ji-Pyeong yazmaya devam eder.

Aradan 15 yıl gibi hatırı sayılır bir zaman geçer. Ji-Pyeong SH Girişim Yatırım Firması’nın en iyi takım lideri olmuştur. Boy boy fotoğrafları basılmış, parmakla gösteriliyordur.  Yatırım yaptığı hiç kimsenin başarısız olmaması ile ünlüdür. Dergi kapaklarında isminden bahsedilir, ünlü ve zengin bir adam olmuştur. Annesi ile giden In-Jae, üvey babasının soyadını almış, bolluk içinde büyümüş ve üvey babasının firmasında CEO olarak çalışmaktadır. Dal-Mi ise kendi işini kurabilmek için üniversiteyi yarıda bırakmıştır. O zamandan beri kimse kimseyle görüşmemiştir. Dal-Mi ise hala küçükken yazıştığı mektup arkadaşını aramaktadır. Ve bütün araştırmaları onu gazetenden çaldıkları isme Nam Do-San (Nam Joo-Hyuk) ‘ a çıkartır.

Nam Do-San ise Kim Yong-San (Kim Do-Wan) ve Lee Chul-San (Yoo Su-Bin) ile SAMSAN adında bir bilişim şirketi kurmuştur. 15 yıl önce kazandığı matematik olimpiyatlarından aldığı gazla kurulan bu şirket aslında üç parasız gencin hayal kurmasından öteye gitmemiştir.  Durumları içler acısıdır. Bir şekilde bütün karakterlerin bir araya gelmesi ile hikaye gelişir ve böyle devam eder.

Nam Joo-Hyuk’u “Weightlifting fairy kim book joo” dizisinde eğlenceli ama biraz itici bulmuştum. “Twenty five, Twenty one” dizisinde ise nefret ettim. “The Bride of Habaek” dizisinde biraz ısınır gibi oldum. Ve son olarak bu dizide tekrar normal seyrini yakaladım. Biraz olsun o nefretimi kırmamı sağladı. Yaşına rağmen kızlarla vakit geçirmemiş, nerd olarak büyümüş bir adamın çekingenliğini çok güzel yansıtmıştı. Karakter gelişimi de aynı şekilde güzel anlatılıyordu. Ama ne yazık ki, nefretimi kırmış olmama rağmen dizi boyunca benim favorim kesinlikle 2.adamdı. Resmen izleyiciler olarak ikinci adam Kim Sun-Ho, esas adam olsun diye imza kampanyası başlatacaktık. Kim Sun-Ho’yu Hometown Cha Cha Cha dizisinde ilk kez izlediğimde bu kadar beni yakalayamamış, idare eder bulmuştum. Burada keşke başrol olsaydı. İlk bölümlerden son bölüme kadar Han Ji Pyeong'un büyükanneyle iletişimi efsaneydi. Öyle güzel bir sevgi vardı ki aralarında dizideki en güzel aşk oydu bence. Yanlış ve geç anlaşılmaları bir o kadar dokunaklıydı. Bayıldım, ikisine de bayıldım.

Dizide başarı hikayelerinin o insanı heyecanlandıran kimyası sonuna kadar havasını korudu. İçimiz kıpır kıpır izledik. Hatta 12.bölüme kadar çok güzel bir ivme artışı vardı. Ve son 4 bölüm… Neden diye haykırasım geldi. Koreliler bunu neden yapıyor neden, neden? “Aradan şu kadar zaman geçti” muhabeti neden bitmemiş. Neden bu kadar takılmış durumdalar bu mevzuya. Tekrar hatırlayınca bile yoruldum. Ne kadar gereksiz olduğunu söylememe gerek bile yok.

Toparlayacak olursak, güzel bir başarı hikayesi diyebiliriz. Karakterler son derece doğaldı. Kimsenin hayatında görmediği o para babaları ütopik zenginler gözlerimizi kanatmadı. Güzel mesajları arka planda gizleyip ilham veren bir hikayeydi. Duygusal yönü ağır basmasına rağmen bütün diziyi himayesine almadı. Dizide beni tek rahatsız eden, aslında rahatsız demek doğru değil, mutsuz eden demek lazım, ikinci erkek sendromuydu. Öyle naif bir ikinci erkek izledik ki, gizliden ağır travmatik olduğunu düşünüyorum. Ve o ikinci erkeğe bence yeterli bir son yazılmamıştı. Keşke ikinci erkek ikinci olmasaydı diyerek izlediğimi tekrar söyleyeyim.

Bence şans verilebilir bir diziydi. Dizi müzikleri içinde ufak bir yorum yapayım, kendi adıma müzikler o kadar diziyle uyuşmuştu ki hiç ön plana çıkmıyordu. Sonrasında dinlediğimde ayrı ayrı beğendim ama izlerken sahnenin önüne geçmediği için fark etmedim. Bu hem iyi hem kötü olarak düşünülebilir. Ben başarılı buldum.
