I Would Die For You In Secret
For a while now I have had this idea of a modern day fic for Sandeok, it hasn't left me alone and so I decided to give it a go.
My English isn't the best so I don't know if people will enjoy it but if you want to read about a modern day Yi San, an ambitious heir to a conglomerate who wants to prove himself...
and...
A modern strong-willed woman, Deok Im, full of dreams and hopes for her own future but daughter of a family butler...
Then you might just enjoy my fic.
You can read it on Wattpad and AO3 too.
The first chapter is up, here's a sneak peak!
Tumblr media
"Why did you buy me those expensive earrings?"
Oh, so she wanted to talk about those earrings now. He was under the impression that she must have thrown them away.
"Did - did you like them?"
"No need to buy precious expensive things for me again."
"I just wanted you to have something nice because you got the Scholarship.", he tried explaining himself.
"Deok-Ro got a Scholarship too, did you buy him some jewellery as well?!"
"What's wrong if I want to give you something precious to celebrate your success?!"
"I am an ordinary person and your gift is extra ordinary!"
"But I don't care if you think you're ordinary, just accept the earrings because they are from me!"
"WHY"
"Because I - I wanted to support you in your success." He finished weakly.
"Oh, Is that why you kissed me too? Three years ago because you wanted to support me in my success?!"
"Deok-imah"
"What!?"

I finished The Red Sleeve, after so long wanting to watch this drama. What took me so long? I don't know, but now it's done, I've got so much to say. I experienced this drama intensely, going through every possible emotion. I shared so strongly in the experiences and feelings of the characters, who were all so interesting. And the drama aims to faithfully illustrate the hard life of concubines, queens and all the women of the court. I was so invested in Yi San and Deok-Im's relationship, their choices, their pain and their resignation. Once again, I want to salute the bravery of Sung Deok-Im, whom I admire more than anything. 
At first, I didn't understand why she didn't want to admit her feelings. But now I understand, and I admire her. I understand and celebrate her determination to remain dignified, to retain her integrity and her feelings, because that's all she had power over. She was courageous, because she preferred to suffer in silence rather than lose who she was, and the daily life she cherished. And she was right, because the life of a concubine was hard, and this life changed her completely and distanced her from everything she loved and what made her who she was. In the end, she chose Yi San, and gave him everything. Yi San, without necessarily wanting to, took everything from her. But that's where the drama aims to be historically reliable. Unfortunately, these characters' choices were in line with what they could have been at the time, and above all with their status. 
But they loved each other so much, so tenderly and passionately, so intensely, that their pain and the tragic end of their love broke my heart. I knew the drama was going to end tragically, but I still wasn't prepared for it. I wasn't prepared for the unhappiness of Deok-Im and Yi San, but also for the loss of Deok-Im's friends. The loss of Young-Hee, who was bullied for also wanting to be free for a few moments. In the end, Gyeong-Hee was alone, because she had lost them all. The scenes where the four of them came together, the depth and power of the friendship that bound them together, were some of the best for me. I liked how the drama showed how important friendship is, and how much you should cherish your friends. The friendship they had was so beautiful and real.
Just one last thing, concerning the character of the queen dowager, who I found exceptional, as well as Yi San's mother, the concubine Hyebin, whose harshness of their respective lives was illustrated.
I salute the beauty of the sets, the scenes, the costumes and the marvellous performance of each actor. I must say that I was fascinated by Lee Junho's acting, which I found remarkable. And Lee Se-Young, who I found touching, and whose performance was sincere and fair. 
I really wanted to express my love for this drama. I'm glad I finally watched it. I now have a trio of favourite historical dramas! The Red Sleeve joins Mr.Sunshine and My Dearest in my list of favourite dramas.

Her Private Life (2019)
Tumblr media
This show was the caramel latte of rom-coms. Warm, safe, and sweet enough to rot your teeth if you take in too much. This wasn't quite a new favorite, but I still enjoyed it, and will probably watch the show again at some point.
What Worked
This show was carried by the cute factor of the OTP. It was mostly kind to the side characters, but didn't really give them nearly as much attention. Overall, the chemistry of the two leads, and the premise of the show was so good that you kind of didn't care when everyone else disappeared.
That being said, the show did a lot of smart, subtle things in the writing. It played it straight with a lot of common tropes, so when the show had the ML (**Spoilers**) actually figure out Seon-joo was a secret fan-girl in episode five (**End Spoilers**), it surprised me, and I was hooked from there. The entire dynamic in that arc, with the ML being teasing in one scene, and then secretly supportive in the next, was so good. The other relationship stuff they did was also excellent, but this was what made the show interesting and unique.
What Didn't Worked
The show was very strong overall, so there weren't a lot of missteps, but it did have a few weaknesses. The way it was filmed at the start, with moments where it almost leaned into anime, really showed the web novel origins of the show, and was very different from typical dramas. I liked this lens, but not everyone will.
Also, the amount of cute relationship stuff from the OTP could quickly turn a little too sweet. It wasn't not really a problem, just something to be aware of. There were times when I started rolling my eyes at the level of cute, and that's when I knew I should probably stop watching for awhile and pick the show up the next day.
(**Spoilers**) The childhood connection thing they did in the final arc of the episode bothered me a little. I understand why they did it, but it still felt a little lazy. I liked the way the arc (which had Young-sook be the one that dropped Ryan Gold off, and talked about a young child that died in a car accident) recontextualized the beginning of the show. The arc really did make me rethink Deok-mi's parents and their relationship. I just wish they had started laying the groundwork for that earlier. It felt like something they introduced at the last minute, which kept it from having the weight it should have (**End Spoilers**).
The Performances
Park Min-young as "secret fangirl" Sung Deok-mi. I think this is my favorite show of hers since Healer. On the other hand, it's also the only show of hers I've completely finished since Healer. She was adorable, and pulled off the humor and the cute stuff pretty well. The writing gave her alot to work with, though the show rarely tried to challenge her (other than the huge endurance challenge of being in pretty much every scene).
Kim Jae-wook as "perfect boyfriend" Ryan Gold / Heo Yoon-je. Some people have complained about him being too withdrawn and even a little wooden in this, but I think he was just following the brief. When the show called for him to open up and be all emotional, he did great. When it called for him to be funny, or cute, he did good with that as well. A solid performance, overall.
Ahn Bo-hyun as "the real director" Nam Eun-gi. I hated the stupid love triangle thing the writers pulled with him, but when they turned the angst down and let the character just breathe and hang out with the other characters, the character was fun to watch. Which shows how good an actor Ahn Bo-hyun could be when they gave him the chance.
Park Jin-joo as "super BFF" Lee Seon-joo. The only other show I've seen her in was It's Okay to Not Be Okay where she was fun, but quirky as heck. She did a great job here, even with the stupid "joke" Lesbian relationship they did in the first few episodes. Just funny and interesting and it made me want to see what else the actor could do.
Im Ji-kyu as "worst Oppa" Kang Seung-min. Not really a standout character from a writing standpoint and the acting wasn't bad, but not really memorable either.
Kim Mi-kyung as "knitting Oma" Go Young-sook. Kim Mi-kyung is a legend for a reason. This is exactly her kind of role and she did a great job. She played a quirky character really well, and when the writers did the "big reveal" at the end, she did a good job with that as well.
Maeng Sang-hoon as "rock enthusiast Appa" Sung Geun-ho. He played kind of joke character through most of it, but it was a funny joke. He handled the dramatic final arc well enough, but it was easy for him to slip into the background compared to all the other actors on the screen.
Kim Bo-ra as "stalker fangirl" Sindy / Kim Hyo-jin. The writers gave her a pretty good arc, and she did a fine job with it. She was funny and annoying when they needed her to be at the start, but it was nice to see the (mostly believable) development throughout the series.
Kim Sun-young as "worst boss and worst Oma" Uhm So-hye. Every time the character walked into the scene, I had a moment of dread. And it was a relief when she left, which proved that Kim Sun-young did a good job with the role she was given, I guess.
Jung Jae-won as "the idol" Cha Shi-an / Sian. Jung Jae-won is a full time rapper & songwriter, so I think this was a case where they knew the limits of the actor and wrote the character to match. He looked and acted the part of an idol very well, but tended to fade in the background alot of the time. So a good job, but not a standout.
Lee Il-hwa as "Missing Oma" Gong Eun-young / Lee Sol. The actor did a good job with what she was given, but I wish the writers had given the character a little more depth. Still, that wasn't really the kind of show they were doing.
Hong Seo-young as "perennial third wheel" Choi Da-in. Again, the actor was mostly okay, but she was given a very thin character who was mostly there to stir up drama. Just like with Nam Eun-gi, when they gave her scenes where she was able to breathe and hang out with the other characters, it was fun to watch, but those scenes were few and far between.
The Kids. The young tyke who played Seon-joo and Seung-min's son, and did alot of judo was cute. The other scenes with children were mostly pleasant, though again the show liked to lean hard into the cute factor at times. Overall, they did good.
Everyone Else. The office people where there, and were mostly funny, but had very little development. The coffeeshop temp / future rock star guy had a few fun moments, but didn't really stand out. The guest stars (like the author guy, Eun-gi's mom, the fangirls, etc.) had mostly good performances, though the show kind of forgot about some of that by the end of it as it focused on the drama part of it over the romcom stuff.
TL; DR:
A fun, sweet show with enough angst and drama to keep it interesting. If you like Park Min-young and Kim Jae-wook (which I did), you'll enjoy the show. Otherwise, you'll probably stop watching pretty quickly.

I have finally come to the end of watching The Red Sleeve, after several fits and starts.
I love sageuk, I went through a whole period of only watching sageuk Kdramas until I ran out of available ones, and so I was eager to see this one after hearing so much about it.
First, the best part of the drama: Lee Junho. Not just because he is *cough* very attractive, but because he is the very embodiment of fevered yearning in this role, so much so that you can practically feel it through the screen.
The plot was... a bit all over the place, and made me think at times that the drama did not quite know what it wanted to be (romance/family angst/politics/random secret organisations) which might be due to it being based on a manhwa.
What did not work for me: Sung Deok Im’s character. I understand the heroine not wanting to give up aspects of your freedom to become the king’s concubine, but I felt her backstory wasn’t fleshed out enough to really properly explain why she objected so much - better writing would have given me more empathy for her choices. Her resistance to accepting the king’s love for her when she already returned his feelings just ended up feeling forced and drawn out as you twiddle your thumbs waiting for them to finally get on with it.
All in all, if it hadn’t been for Lee Junho I probably would have given this up before reaching the end.

I would die for you in secret on AO3 & Wattpad
Chapter 2: A Night of Passion
"May I join you, my lady."
Despite herself, Deok-im couldn't contain her laugh, "We live in the 21st century Deokro, don't you think you can drop this Victorian era act now?"
He sat next to her and took a sip of whatever he was drinking, "I can't expect someone like you to understand etiquettes of high society." 
"And I don't remember giving you the permission to sit next to me."
"I don't actually need permission, from the likes of you."
An insult about her class, "You can't go five seconds without insulting me, can you?"
"Well someone has to remind you of your place." He replied nonchalantly.
"Oh yeah, since you know so much, please elaborate how have I stepped out of my place today", she was beginning to get annoyed by him.
"Okay, simply put, you shouldn't be here," he gave her a look and then pointed towards a girl refilling someone's cup, "see that girl over there? That is who you're supposed to be. Like your mother who is in charge of the arrangements today, you are 'the help'  Deokim, but somehow you always forget that."
Anger was bubbling inside of her, "why yes Deok-Ro, that is indeed my mother's occupation, 10/10 for knowing that, but you are ignorant of the fact that my parent's careers do not define me, I have my own aspirations..."
"And they mean nothing to me", he cut her off rather rudely, " Just know that someone like you has no chance with San."
"Why do you care so much? huh?"
"San is my friend. I want the best for him."
"Is he your 'friend' or just your ticket to reclaim the lost glory of your ancestors?"

Sung Deok Im, I think of her a lot after finishing The Red Sleeve. I admire her determination to remain dignified and retain her integrity right to the end. What a wonderful female character, so brave, who preferred to suffer in silence rather than lose who she was, what she loved, and her desire to live as she saw fit. The scene in episode 16 where she salutes a vision of herself that always stayed with her friends was heartbreaking to watch. Honestly, one of the hardest scenes, as Deok Im decides to silence what she wanted, her deepest desires, in order to stay with the one she loves and ultimately give him everything. What strength, what self-sacrifice and what honour. I think I'll always remember her as a symbol of bravery and courage.
