Hierarchy

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2024

Hierarchy (2024, South Korea)

Director: Bae Hyeon Jin

Writer: Chu Hye Mi

Mini-review:

Oof, what a disappointment. I feel like this wanted to be one of those transgressive teen shows we get in the West, but then it didn't have the guts to go all the way and ended up being like any other kdrama about the rich and the poor. And even then, it's just not good at that either. The writing leaves a lot to be desired, and it gets more boring with every episode. The acting is also all over the place; some of the actors do a solid job, but most of them are mediocre or downright terrible. Tbh, there are two things that save this drama from disaster: firstly, the director adds a lot of style and flair to the proceedings; secondly, sometimes it's fun to see a bunch of super pretty people all together in one place. But still, there are a lot of shows where you can find those things with much better quality. I wouldn't recommend Hierarchy, unless you really love someone in the cast...

Our Beloved Summer (2021-22)

A well written second chance romance that just feels real. I enjoyed the characters and just loved spending time with them, even when they were clearly going through it.

What Worked

The writing was top notch, but the two leads made this show come alive. The actors all put in the work to make sure all of the layers shown through with these characters. Every episode lets you see a new faucet to all of the characters and their relationships. It feels almost like an adaptation to a much larger story, which is an amazing trick to pull off in any drama.

Also, I normally hate love triangles, but the way this show did it worked. Mainly because it never felt like a dramatic love triangle, it just felt like a bunch of people in a mess because of their feelings. And that's always more interesting.

What Didn't Work

I don't think there were any major missteps, but there were choices that some people like and others won't. This is a slow, slice of life show that tries to ground itself in real life. For some people, like me, this is going to hit them right away. For other people, it'll seem boring, or hard to get into, and that's okay.

The Performances

Choi Woo-shik as ("the artist") Choi Ung. If you've seen him in Parasite, you already know he's a darn good actor. He makes a character that's kind of a loser (especially at the start of the show) seem instantly appealing, because you can tell there's more to him than you see on the surface. Fun to watch in every scene, and the way the character subtlety changes over the series is just fascinating.

Kim Da-mi as ("grumpy overachiever") Kook Yeon-soo. I loved this performance. The character is portrayed as this uptight, stuck-up person (even in High School), but (like Choi Woo-shik's performance), you can tell there's more going on under the surface. While Choi Ung's character has a hidden strength and charm, with Yeon-soo, it's the vulnerability and compassion that's hidden, and it's so good to watch these layers get uncovered over the series.

Kim Sung-cheol as ("side character") Kim Ji-ung. He played a similar quiet character in Do You Like Brahms? and he did an even better job of making him seem layered and interesting (it helps that the writing overall is better). This performance will probably shine on rewatches when you get his entire story and can see where things were hinted at early on. Fun to watch, even when he was a little mopey.

Roh Jeong-eui as ("super idol") NJ. I loved this performance too. The actor did a great job of playing someone who was forced to have feelings and care about people, even though she was way too cool for any of them. I liked how she interacted with Choi Ung, and pretty much all of the other characters as well. Just fun and interesting in every scene.

Park Won-sang as Choi Ho / Choi Ung's father. and Seo Jeong-yeon as Lee Yeon-ok / Choi Ung's mother. These actors were delightful. Just brought warmth whenever they were on screen.

Cha Mi-kyung as Kang Ja-kyung / Kook Yeon-soo's grandma. I loved the scenes we got with her, especially with Yeon-soo.

Park Jin-joo as Lee Sol-yi. I always like seeing this actor. The character work was solid, but the writing for her scenes (and so her performance) was a little uneven. She was funny and great to watch with Yeon-soo and sometimes with other characters, but the stuff with her and Eun-ho was kind of hit and miss.

Ahn Dong-goo as ("manager buddy") Gu Eun-ho. His performance wasn't exactly weak, just not nearly as good as the other people he had to share a scene with. Might have been improved by giving the character more depth, but I would still rather have an additional scene learning more about any other character, which is why he never got that.

The documentary team. The side characters (Ji-ung's boss, writer-nim, Ji-ung's junior, and the intern) were all well developed and it was nice when they got screentime. A good example of how this show treated even minor characters pretty well.

RUN Company people. I feel like this group was a little weaker, especially Yeon-soo's boss and the gossipy coworkers. At the start, they felt a little tropey and mostly interchangeable. By the end of the show, they were in a good place, but it took a long time for them to get interesting.

TL; DR:

A hard hitting romance drama that's not afraid to take its time. Definitely worth a try if you're even a little interested in this.

Hangul: 이번 생도 잘 부탁해

Director: Lee Na-Jeong

Writer: Lee Hye (webcomic), Choi Young-Rin

Date: 2023

Language: Korean

Country: South Korea

Cast: Shin Hye-Sun, Ahn Bo-Hyun, Ha Yoon-Kyung, Ahn Dong-Goo, Park So-Yi, Kim Si-A, Ki So-Yu, Cha Chung-Hwa, Choi Jin-Ho

Ayrı ayrı bu kadar mükemmel iki oyuncunun birbirine bu kadar yakışmadığını ilk defa görüyorum. Aralarında kimya, biyoloji, fizik, itme, çekme hiçbir şey yoktu ya... Aceleyle karalanmış bir senaryoya başarılı oyuncuları yerleştirmişler. İlk yapacağım yorum budur. 12 bölümlük kısa bir dizi olduğu için konu çabuk toparlanır, hikaye uzamaz diye düşünmüştüm. Onun yerine sona doğru yeni düğümler atıp evirip çevirip, al bitti bu dediler. Lee Hye’ye ait webtoondan uyarlanan dizi çizime sadık kaldı mı yoksa kendisi mi bir son yazdı bilmiyorum.

Hikaye küçük bir kız olan Ban Ji-Eum ( Park So-Yi )’nin geçmiş hayatlarını hatırladığını anlatması ile başlıyor. Şuan ki 19. hayatında içinde bulunduğu aile fakirdir ve annesi evi terk etmiştir. Babası ve küçük kardeşi ile sefalet içinde yaşarken böyle olamayacağını fark edip evden kaçar. 17.hayatında bir erkek olarak yeğeni ile sirkte yaşarken hastalanıp ölmüştür. 19.hayatında o zamanki yeğenini bulur.

Kim Ae-Gyeong(Cha Chung-Hwa), kendi başına çok zorluklarla büyümüş kocaman kadın olmuştur. Küçük bir yahni dükkanı işletmektedir. Cha Chung-Hwa bence şahane bir oyuncu bu arada. Aynı zamanda da Shin Hye-Sun ile Mr. Queen dizisinde beraber oynamışlardı. Böyle geçmiş hayatlar üzerine bir dizi yapıp neden Mr. Queen’e bir gönderme yapılmadığına anlam veremedim. Önceki hayatımda kraliçeydim dese bile olurmuş. Çok tatlı bir dokunuş olurdu. Geçmiş hayatlar konusunu çok büyük harcadıklarını düşünüyorum. Uçsuz bucaksız bir fırsat varken ellerinde yalnızca bir konuk geldi; Chae Jong-Hyeop. Farklı isimlerinde kısacık da olsa görünmelerini bekledim.

Neyse kızımız geliyor yahniciye, ben senin amcanım diyor. Kadıncağız da hemen inanıyor, 10 yaşındaki kıza amca amca diyerek beraber yaşamaya başlıyorlar. Aradan yıllar geçiyor. Ban Ji-Eum burada yeni bir hayat kurduğundan beri 18.hayatında beraber yaşadığı küçük çocuğu arıyor. 18.hayatında daha çocuk yaştayken bir trafik kazasında ölmüş. Kaza sırasında Mun Seo-Ha(Jeong Hyun-Jun)’da onunla beraber olan aile dostlarının oğluymuş. Ufak bir çocuk olmasına rağmen bütün zamanlarını beraber geçiren bu çocukların özel bir bağı varmış. Ji-Eum da bu özel arkadaşını 19.yaşında arayıp bulmuş. Seo-Ha’nın babasının şirketinde parmakla gösterilen bir çalışan olmuş. Basamakları tek tek çıkarak ona ulaşmaya çalışıyormuş.

Ve geliyoruz günümüze Mun Seo-Ha büyüyor, oyuncusu Ahn Bo-Hyun’a dönüşüyor. Yaşadığı araba kazası nedeniyle bir kulağında duyma kaybı ve ilk aşkı/çocukluk arkadaşını kucağında kaybetmesinin travmalarını yaşıyor. Ölen annesine ait otelin işletmesini üstlenip, oteli eski görkemli günlerine döndürmeyi planlıyor. Ban Ji-Eum ise büyüyüp Shin Hye-Sun’a dönüşüyor. Karakterimiz işinden istifa ederek Mun Seo-Ha ‘nun oteline iş başvurusunda bulunuyor.

18.hayatındaki küçük kız kardeşi Yoon Cho-Won( küçük- Ki So-Yu, büyük Ha Yoon-Kyung) hep Seo-Ha’nın etrafında büyümüş. Peyzaj mimarı olan bu sevimli kızımız da Seo-Ha’nı sekreteri Ha Do-Yun(Ahn Dong-Goo) ile ilgileniyordu. Aslında bakarsanız bu çiftimiz çok daha uyumluydular. Uyumun yanı sıra çok daha da sevimliydiler. İkilinin aşkı, acısı, hissi izleyiciye çok daha fazla geçiyordu.

Daha önce dediğim gibi, oyuncular tek başlarına şahaneydiler. Shin Hye-Sun bir diziyi tek başına alıp götürebilecek potansiyele sahip dev kadro bir oyuncu. Ahn Bo-Hyun ise hem kötü adamı hem aksiyonu hem de aşık erkek rolünü hakkını vererek yaptığını kanıtladı. Itaewon Class, My Name, Yumi’s Cells gibi yapımlarla bu tezimi kanıtlayabilirim. Ayrıca ilk kötü adam olarak izledikten sonra bendeki imajını alaşağı ederek benim sapsabit fikrimi değiştirmeyi başaran çok nadir oyunculardan biridir. İşte tam burada kocaman bir ama! Ama işte olmamışlar beraber ya. İki dev oyuncunun birbirleri ile hiç mi kimyası uymaz arkadaş, uymamış işte.

Birazda senaryo hakkında konuşayım. Korelilerin çokça sevdiği bir konu olan reenkarnasyon mevzusu ana çıkış noktası. Hoş olmuş, güzel başlamış. Bütün hayatlarının her seferinde farklı bir suret farklı cinsiyet ile resmedilmesi de ayrıca güzel olmuş. Son 3 hayatının kısa sürmesi nedeni ile birden fazla hayatının iç içe geçmesini de çok güzel bağlamış birleştirmişler. Hikayeye verilen amaç yerine tam oturacakken, birden farklı bir boyut açmaları ise hiç diziye gitmemiş. Dizinin kaldıramayacağı bir karmaşa eklemişler. En başında bu insan neden sürekli geçmiş hayatlarını hatırlıyor diye sorgulamadan dizinin %80’ini izletip, sonra aslında her şey neden hatırladığına başlı diyemezsiniz. İzleyiciye ayıp olmuyor mu birazcık sizce de?

Çok gereksiz yükselip, verdiği açıklama ile tatmin etmeyen bir son yaşandı. Bana bir tık “Bulgasal” dizisini anımsattı. Keşke o dizideki gibi ilk bölümden bu lanetin sinyallerini verseydi. Kimin neden yaptığını söylemesine gerek yoktu, sadece böyle bir final yaşanacak mesajı bile yeterli olurdu. O yüzden hikayeyi çok zayıf buldum. Karakter gelişimi yok denebilecek kadar kötüydü. 18.hayatlarında birbirleri ile zaman geçiren iki çocuk… gerçekten çocuk. İzleyiciye, bir sonraki hayatlarında birbirlerini bulacakları kadar büyük bir bağ yansıtmıyorlar. Üstelik kız çocuktan büyük, ona ablalık yapıyor gibi bir hava hakim. Daha en başta çocukların arasında bir aşk var diye düşünüyorsunuz.

Bütün bu etkileşimi düşünerek izlediğinizde de, 1.bölümün sonunda ve fragmanda da gösterdiği o meşhur sahne geliyor karşınıza; iş görüşmesine gelmiş bir kadın, görüşme sonunda “beni işe almıyorsanız benimle çıkar mısınız” diye soruyor. Sen ne ara o kafaya geldin? Kardeşin gibi takıldığın çocuğa ölünce mi abayı yaktın. Hadi çocuğun kendinden büyük kıza açık olması normal. Her küçük erkek çocuğu zamanında bakıcısına, öğretmenine, komşunun büyük kızına vuruluştur. Onda da şöyle bir saçmalık hakimdi; yakışıklı patronumuz kızımızı gördü ve hiç etkilenmedi. Çok uzun süre kızımız çocuğun etrafında saçmalıklar yaptı, sülük gibi yapıştı. Yırtık dondan çıkar gibi “hadi çıkalım”, “senden hoşlanıyorum”, “öbüşek mi” tadında dolaştı. Sonra, sizde artık izlerken tamam hadi aşık oldu kız o kadar sene peşinde koşunca diye ikna oluyorsunuz. Bu seferde diğer tarafın mantıksızlığı suratınıza çarpıyor. Arkadaşım sen karşındaki kişiden hiç birazcık dahi hoşlanmazken onun aslında hoşlandığın kişi olduğunu öğrenince aşkında ölme moduna nasıl bu kadar çabuk geçebildin. Düğmesi mi var bunun aç kapat, nedir yani?

Yok bak kalp çarpıntısı yaptı düşünürken bile. Sözün kısası, oyuncuların uyumu olmadığı gibi senaryoda oldukça tutarsızdı. Benim fikrim, şahane bir konuyu, şahane oyuncularla harcamışlar. OST’sini de inceledim. Müzik de yoktu diyebilirim. En azından diziyi izlerken dikkatinizi çeken bir müzik olmuyor. Yine de ayrıca dinlerken iki tane seçtim. Yani kütüphanemede bu oyuncuların bütün yapımları olsun derseniz izleyin atın. Derseniz o kadar boş vaktim yok, izlemeyin.

OST:

Colde – Star

Jo Yuri – Down ( juicy Juicy )

Title: Human Acts/Celui qui revient Author: Han Kang Translators: Jeong Eun-Jin, Jacques Batilliot "Aren't you the guy with the NO BUYING NEW BOOKS UNTIL THE TBR IS DEAD guy? Shouldn't you be unable to read very recent book? This clearly says 2024 on the cover."

And don't you want to shut the fuck up?

There's a possibility that I entered the bookshop, intending to buy books as gifts, and that I bought a lot of gifts (for myself). Maybe I'll allow myself to buy stuff again. Like a lunatic. (One day, my TBR will surely kill me in a freak accident. A particularly heavy tome will crack my skull like an egg. A worthy way to go.)

Han Kang, then. Wee, hoo! South Korea's first step into my reading activities. I was familiar with her name because of The Vegetarian, so when I saw that she had won a Nobel for this one, I thought, why not?

Human Acts examines the Gwangju Uprising of 1980 -- a popular movement vying for democracy, which got repressed into a bloody pulp -- through the event of the killing of a child ; through the eyes of the people who lived near him around the time of his death ; through much later-on events and happenings that deal with flesh, blood, pain, oppression ; through the inevitability of flesh. It's a poetic book, a rather short book.

It made me sick at several points. I am very wimpy when it comes to gore -- I feel it in my own flesh, I can't take it very well (completely unrelated: it fascinates and attracts me). This book is, in a way, about the absurd and unrelenting pain a body and mind can endure. There are several depictions of torture. I wouldn't even call them very graphic -- they're even a little bit muted. But torture is inherently jarring, the notion of such a violence having been real, having been wanted, and meticulously performed, made me need to take a few seconds to let the waves of nausea recede. I mean, that or I was just sick. I was also just sick at the time. I also got fully unrelated waves of nausea because I was sick.

This book is sticky with blood. Every other page, you will be made intimate with the nastiness of a human body made of flesh. It literally opens on the dealings of the temporary morgue set up after the initial massacre. Bodies rot, flesh decays, souls watch it turn into putrid goo and ashes. This was my favorite part. It's beautiful and interesting.

Petit aparté en français -- le texte traduit m'a vraiment beaucoup posé question. J'ai buté sur plusieurs points de confusion. Au départ, j'ai accusé mon propre manque de compréhension, notamment dans le deuxième chapitre. Mais pourquoi, si ce chapitre est sensé être du point de vue d'un des deux garçons, pourquoi est-ce qu'il est genré au féminin ? Et pourquoi seulement une partie du temps, et de manière irrégulière ? Pendant ma lecture, je n'ai jamais totalement compris qui parlait dans ce deuxième chapitre, pourtant un de mes préférés. Il y a aussi le cas des irrégularités comme le nom d'Unsuk, qui est épelé différemment vers la fin, et enfin, celui de la phrase marquante du roman ; "Ne les laissez plus humilier mon frère", qui sonne si plat, si plaplat, en français, alors que je l'imagine d'une portée différente dans le texte d'origine.

Loin de moi dans l'idée de juger du travail effectué -- c'est leur expertise, que je ne partage pas. Mais alors pourquoi, pourquoi ? Bon. Je n'aurai pas la réponse aujourd'hui.

MY LIBERATION NOTES 나의 해방일지 (2022—) "Episode 1" dir. Kim Seok-Yoon

[i-got-the-feels]

Our beloved summer scenes and writing that I loved

"How are you so immature about it?" /"How are you so indifferent over it?" - A conversation between Woong and Yeon su.

"All you have to do is a take a a step back" / "Its best to do nothing when living a borrowed life" - parallel between kim ji ung and choi woong

"I am in pain" / "I am in pain" - Woong and Yeon su saying this to each other at different points of their relationship.

"I don't want to be like you and hence confessing my life to you" - Chae ran to Ji Ung

The excitement and love with which Ung's mom complimented him for sleeping 10 hours. My fucking heart.

Ung buying fishing rod for his dad. Ung's father getting angry at him going and trying to stop him for going.

Ung visiting his biological father before he leaves to let him know he turned out okay.

The parallel between JJONGJJONGIE and WOONG-of not moving in present because of being stuck in the past.

"There is one specific answer I wanted to hear from him" / "I love you" "Why didn't you say earlier", "I love you" - Yeon su and woong

"I pitied you because what kind of life must you be living to abandon that (something you worked on hours for) so easily - Nua to Woong

Ji ung letting his mom know yes she had her own issues but at the end of the day she was parent and he a little child and what he did was wrong and he deserved better

"I've alwayd been an observer"/"My life is an episode of boring documentary no one watches" to him being in front of the camera and telling his happiest memories with his mom "eating ttbeokkie - she held my hand on way to the restaurant" - the journey Kim Ji Ung had.

"It was my pride that made me leave you. My pride that told me I could live without you (only woong made me forget reality) /" The only one who made my life seem pathetic was me" / "Being good at your job without empathy is nothing to be proud of. Didnt you know Empathy is linked to intelligence? If people think I am like you, I need to think on my past actions" - Yeon'su major realisations.

HER GIVING WOONG A PERSONAL CHERRY BLOSSOM SHOWER

"Please keep loving me" / "I'll keep listening to her. I'll wait for the day when she tells everything" - Woong to and about yeon su

Woong with eun ho - eun ho being scared for woong's well being after knowing he is dating yeon su again because he remembers how he was in past.

Woong's affection for him - that smile when he sees the note he and sol noona left him/ how he tells "live your own life now" when he informs him about leaving

NJ telling about why woong's art comforts her
