Ballerina

Movies watched in 2023

Ballerina (2023, South Korea)

Director & Writer: Lee Chung Hyun

Mini-review:

I'm a huge fan of Jeon Jong Seo and I enjoyed The Call very much, so I was really looking forward to Ballerina, her second collaboration with director Lee Chung Hyun. Thankfully, it didn't disappoint. It's sleek and visually stunning, and Jeon Jong Seo more than rises up to the challenge. She definitely has what it takes to be an action movie star. Tbh, the script and the story are much weaker and unoriginal than in The Call, but Lee Chung Hyun clearly knows how to direct the hell out of an action scene. Also, the movie is pretty short, so it goes straight to the point and it never gets boring. Anyway, I hope these two keep collaborating, cause so far they've been on fire together.

P.S. There's quite a lot of triggering content, and I recommend looking up some warnings before watching.

Wedding Impossible

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2024

Wedding Impossible (2024, South Korea)

Director: Kwon Young Il

Writers: Oh Hye Won & Park Seul Ki (based on the webtoon by Song Jung Won)

Mini-review:

Well, this drama was entertaining, but nothing more. It was especially funny at the beginning, thanks to that sort of 'rivalry' between the leads. However, once they solved that and started moving into purely romantic territory, the story began to lose steam quickly. Tbh, I kept watching to the very end because of the sizzling chemistry between Jeon Jong Seo and Moon Sang Min. And I guess I wanted to see how in the world they were gonna clear up the mess created by the characters, which was pretty fascinating. I feel like the show would have been better if the director had put more thought into its style, cause the whole thing looked pretty cheap and bland. But still, Wedding Impossible is fun enough, and I can see fans of classic romcoms enjoying it a lot.

PROJECT WOLF HUNTING (2022) ★★★★☆

      Les forces de police coréennes rapatrient, un groupe de dangereux criminels sur un cargo spécialement affrété et conditionné. Malgré la sécurité accrue, ceux-ci parviennent à s’échapper et massacrent les forces de l’ordre ainsi que les membres de l’équipage. Toutefois, un mal bien plus profond se libère également de la soute du bateau…     “Project Wolf Hunting” est un thriller d’action…

Money Heist: Korea – Joint Economic Area.

Calificación del drama: 4/5 (⭐️).

Opinión del drama:

Como una persona que disfrutó y vivió todo el fenómeno que fue “La Casa de Papel”, no sabía qué esperar del primer remake de una de las series que cambio al mundo.

Me agradó la manera en que manejaron a las coreas y el impacto tan grande que sería unirlas, considero que fue una manera de mostrar los conflictos políticos que, considero, la serie original a veces no llegaba a abordar y que mejor manera de mostrar la “unión” de las coreas con el saludo en la línea que las divide.

El saludo, la esperanza estaba por los cielos de que las coreas estuvieran en paz y pudieran unirse en un futuro cercano, la manera en que se quita de la maqueta la línea divisoria del sur y del norte, simplemente cine.

Son muchos detalles que se aportaron a un mensaje tan fuerte como lo fue en la versión original, Corea se arriesgó con este drama pero no decepcionaron. Algo tan polémico como la cultura de Corea del Norte y trataron de mostrarlo en este drama, las diferencias entre los Surcoreanos y los Norcoreanos, pero a la vez las similitudes que los acercan a simplemente tratarse como personas y alejarse de las etiquetas y prejuicios del pasado.

Siempre se hablará de como se muestra a los Norcoreanos en los dramas, que tal vez Corea del Sur se trate de mostrar como un “héroe” y tal vez como extranjera nunca termine de comprender lo que las hizo dividirse y lo que las sigue dividiendo, pero es un tema que tiene que hablarse, pues simplemente, en ambos hemisferios hay personas con sueños, metas y ambiciones.

No es simplemente quitar la frontera, sino la unión de una comunidad, de dejar la etiqueta “Es del Sur” o “Él es del Norte” para simplemente considerarse ciudadanos coreanos.

Opinión de los personajes:

No hablaré de todos los personajes detalladamente, porque son un montón, pero destacaré lo que más me gustó de su interpretación.

Tokyo (Jung Jong Seo): Para mí, Tokyo siempre debe de estar primero. La actriz es simplemente magnífica en cada papel que interpreta. Esta interpretación creo que le dio más sentido a la misión de Tokyo, no solo como acto de rebeldía ante la situación de seguridad en su país, sino en todo lo que conlleva ser un Norcoreano en Corea del Sur.

Seon Woo Jin (Kim Yoon Jin): Pura diosa y bad ass woman en este proyecto, qué bendición. La inspectora se convirtió de mis personajes favoritos en esta versión.

Profesor (Yoo Ji Tae): Estuvo bien, solo que considero que hizo una copia exacta del profesor y no aporto al personaje.

Berlín (Park Hae Soo): GRAN ACTOR, GRAN PERSONAJE, EXCELENTE INTERPRETACIÓN. Miren, se dicen muchas cosas del Corea del Norte y no sé cuáles son ciertas, pero el flashback y lo que nos hizo ver porque Berlín es como es, simplemente magnificó.

Moscow (Lee Wong Jong): Bien, me cayó bien. Este personaje siempre merece algo mejor.

Denver (Kim Ji Hoon): Mi crush, me enamoré. Denver de por sí ya era de los personajes más carismáticos que nos pudo brindar “La Casa de Papel” y Kim Ji Hoon logró mejorarlo.

Río (Lee Hyun Woo): Me cae muy bien, por lo que pude conocer del actor, se alejó de los dramas un tiempo por críticas a sus actuaciones, pero en este papel me gustó mucho. Brindo una parte más humana y personal como lo es la cultura del estudio en corea y lo que debes llegar a ser si eres de una familia con poder.

Oslo (Lee Kyu Ho): Bien, me sigue dando miedo.

Nairobi (Jang Yoon Joo): Qué pedazo de mujer, de verdad que la quiero mucho. Yo siempre la defenderé, tú tienes todas las razones para hacer lo que quieras y no le debes de dar explicaciones a nadie.

Helsinki (Kim Ji Hoon): Bien, me sigue dando miedo.

Big Mouth. 7/8

Story: 9

Acting: 10 👌

Chemistry: 10

Comparable to: Vagabond (kdrama) ; Flower of Evil (kdrama); Cruel City (kdrama) ; Mouse (kdrama)

Is the drama way way overhyped, yeah. Is it good yeppers. First half of the drama is excellent but unfortunately it didn’t keep that pace and kind of steadily decline throughout the series (what is with all the Hulu/Disney+ shows. They start out like a bang then poof out at the end) First off though, Lee Jong Suk is phenomenal in this, there’s no denying that. Im Yoon Na is just as good, the chemistry between them were amazing. The rest of the cast is outstanding as well. The storyline is not overtly complicated nor is the mystery part that hard to figure out, the whole ‘who’s big mouth’ revelation is actually underwhelming when everything was revealed. In the end though, overall It’s a decent thriller suspense kdrama that was entertaining to watch.

Drama Review #1: Shooting Stars

Rank: 9/10

Genre: Romance, Comedy

Review: It is a very entertaining drama, with fun scenes. I really liked how it didn't had tedious and annoying twists. It was fun to watch. I give it a 9 because there were some topics that didn't land as much as I expected but overall, I recommend!!

Favorite character: Kang Yuseong (team leader)

Special reasons to watch: 1. The male leads are super hot! Lee Jungshin, Kim Youngdae, Yoon Jong Hoon together is just eye candy 2. Describing the struggles of both actors and staff of companies 3. Lee Seunghyub (N.Flying) raising as an actor. 4. lots of amazing cameos!
