A hilarious comedy thriller drama that unfortunately gets bogged down with unnecessary romance and bad editing. It definitely could have been a 10 episode series and it would’ve been a knock out series. Seo in Guk is phenomenal in this. He had just the right over the top humor and darkness to his character, while I absolutely love Oh Yeon Seo, the writing for her character was awful and didn’t fit right. For the romance I more so rooted for the secondary couple more. I guess I was hoping for more of a best buddy relationship for the main couple. Overall still would recommend to watch once if you love mystery comedies.

Weak Hero Class 1 (2022)

[gaymer-hag-stan]

On the 25th of March, fourteen years ago, After School released their third Korean single, "Bang!".

The title track is known for its energetic beats, catchy melody, and powerful choreography. It became a hit for its fusion of electronic and hip-hop elements, showcasing the group's dynamic performance style.

Hoo-nam to Seon-ja ("Sons And Daughters"), and Sung-shil to Ji-eun ("What Is Love?") :

"I was raised in this house. What makes you think you will be treated different than me just because you married my brother? You will end up like me in no time. Fearful, silenced, beaten down, your confidence tread upon, your womanhood thrown in the dirt. Why are you doing this to yourself? Do you know how much I hurt? Why do you think I am the way I am?"

THE PLAYER 2: MASTER OF SWINDLERS

GENRES: Action, Drama, Comedy

SUMMARY: The players are at it again, seeking both personal revenge and national justice.

THIS SHOW HAS EVERYTHING: Gourmet eats, sham gallery owners, despicable real estate dealers, sadist millionaires, car chases, chaotic punches, stabbings, bombs, idols, drugs, grey suits, and conflicted Presidents.

HOT TAKE: The first season of this show, just like this second season, was silly action fun with som decent cast chemistry thrown in as a nice bow. Nothing too adventurous to worry about--the lead is handsome, the tough guy is unbeatable, the hacker is the best in the world, and their driver can hold her own wherever she goes.

Did we need another season? Not really, but I'm not going to complain that we did. Are we getting another one after this? You betcha.

Revenant

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2024

Revenant (2023, South Korea)

Directors: Lee Jung Rim & Kim Jae Hong

Writer: Kim Eun Hee

Mini-review:

I finally got the chance to watch this, and it didn't disappoint at all. I love me a good horror thriller, a genre that's very in rare in the world of k-dramas, and this one ticks all the boxes for me. Sure, it's not super scary or anything, but it does know how to be creepy as hell. And while it was the central mystery that kept me hooked from beginning to end, I also appreciated the way they used individual "cases" to build up the main plot, especially during the first half. On top of that, the show is superbly acted, with Kim Tae Ri being particularly excellent in a sort of dual role. But really, I don't think I have a single complaint. Revenant is truly that good, and I will certainly add it to my favorite dramas list.

P.S. There is a lot of triggering content throughout its twelve episodes, so be careful with that and make sure to check warnings.

Writer: Kim Ran

Date: 2019

Language: Korean

Country: South Korea

Cast: Ji Soo, Jung Chae-Yeon, Jin Young, Choi Ri, Kang Tae-Oh

8 + 8 olmak üzere 2 sezondan oluşan bir platform dizisi. Birbirinden bambaşka karakterde dört kişinin aynı evi paylaşmak zorunda kalmasıyla, onların hayata dair yaşadıkları zorluklara dostluklarına ve aşk hayatlarına şahit olduğumuz bir diziydi. Güzel bir dizi miydi? Yeaaaniğ! Kötü bir dizi miydi? Yeaaniğ! Var ile yok arasında bir diziydi. Çekimleri, oyunculuklar kötü değildi o yüzden rahatsız edici bir şey yoktu. Bayıldığım bir detay var mıydı? İlgi çekici bir şey gördüm mü derseniz o da yoktu o yüzden güzel dizide diyemeyeceğim.

Konusu gerçekten tam anlamı ile 4 kişinin “ Slice of life “ından oluşuyor. O yüzden karakterleri anlatayım;

Tae-O(Ji Soo); Zengin bir ailenin oğludur. 20 yaşında kendi başına eve çıkar. Arkadaş canlısı bir insandır. 3 yaşından beri Song-Yi (Jung Chae-Yeon) ile arkadaştır.

Song-Yi(Jung Chae-Yeon) babası ölünce annesi evi terk etmiş tek başına yaşamaya çalışan bir üniversite öğrencisidir. Oturduğu ev satılıp onu kapının önüne koydukları için evsiz kalır. Bir şekilde arkadaşı Tae-O’nun yanında kalmaya başlar.

Ga-Rin(Choi Ri); Ailesi çok zengin olan bu kızımız büyük bir şirketin varisidir. Ama şimdiye kadar bir fanusta yaşadığından hayatı deneyimlemek kendi ayakları üzerinde durabildiğini görmek için evden kaçar. Bir şekilde tek tanıdığı arkadaşı olan Tae-O’nun evine gelir.

Hoon (Kang Tae-Oh); En hayalperest olan karakter Hoon’dur. Müzikal bir tiyatroda rol almak isteyen amatör bir oyuncudur. Ama ailesi bu duruma şiddetle karşı çıkmaktadır. Babasının şiddete başvurması bardağı taşıran son damla olur ve evi terk eder. Geldiği yer ise Tae-O’nun evidir.

Böylece ev ahalisi olan dörtlü tamamlanmış olur. Karakterlerimizin dışında iki kişi daha vardır. Biri Do-Hyun(Jin Young); Tae-O’nun yakın arkadaşı. Ailesini durumu kötü olduğu için birden fazla işte çalışarak geçimini sağlayan realistik ve yalnız biri. Diğeri ise ; Ryu Se-Hyun(Hong Ji-Yoon) ‘dur. Film kulübü öğrencisi olan bu kızımız Song-Yi’nin evini satın alan ailenin şımarık kızıdır. Aynı zamanda Tae-O’nun hoşlandığı kızıdır.

Dizide ikinci erkek, ikinci kadın kavramları biraz birbirlerine giriyor. En başta çocukluk arkadaşları olan ikili çift olacak gibi dursa da kızımızın aklı Do-Hyun’a kayıyor. Zaten Tae-O’nun hoşlandığı kız da Se-Hyun. Ama böyle olunca da izleyici ha şimdi ha sonra diye karakterlerin ayrılıklarını beklerken buluyor kendini. Çünkü biliyoruz ki onlar başrol değiller… Aslında bir yere kadar izleyiciyi ikna etmeyi de başardılar diyebilirim. Gerçekten yakın arkadaş olunabileceğine inanmanın eşiğine geldik.

Dizi çok durağan, olağan ve aksiyonsuz bir yapım olduğu için bütün mevzuyu son bölüme bırakmaları beni biraz darladı. Kötü karakter olsaydı biraz duygu geçişi yaşasaydık bile dedim. Zira yoktu. Dizide entrika, baş ağrısı, sinir krizi yoktu. Ama öte yandan şeker şerbet bir aşk, kıskanılacak bir arkadaş ortamı falanda yoktu. Dizinin eksiği, dizide bir şey olmamasıydı.

Dizideki tek güzel şey, o da güzel bir şey bulmak için çabalarsanız, Hoon ile Ga-Rin çiftiydi. Birbirlerinden inanılmaz zıt iki karakterin yakınlaşmaları dizinin durağanlığını bir tık sarstığı için izlemeye değerdi. Keza oyuncu Kang Tae-Oh’u severiz.

Sonuç olarak, izlediğimi bile hatırlamayacağım çok ortalama bir diziydi. Boşsanız izleyip geçebilirsiniz. Pek bir şey beklemeyin.

Never Twice. 8.5

Story: 8

Acting: 10

Chemistry: 10

Comparable to: Beautiful Love, Wonderful Life, (kdrama) ;Homemade Love Story (kdrama)

It’s a family story drama with 72 episodes (32min long). Is it worthwhile watching. Absolutely. It’s hella melodramatic though, so keep that in mind going in. You have a corrupt family, a somewhat vengeful widow, a suicidal couple, a golfer, two adults nearing their 50s who act like they’re in their 20s and a cute older couple. It can get a bit bonkers at times especially towards the later half, the ending had me rolling my eyes on how everyone ended up in one big happy family. And I mean EVERYONE. It’s still a really nice drama even with its ups and downs especially with the main leads who had a beautiful storyline that was written brilliantly for them. I mean the chemistry between the two. *chefs kiss*

Rang: "I'm going out!"

Yeon: "Where?"

Rang: "Either to get icecream with Yu-ri and Soo-oh or to commit a murder, we'll decide in the car."

Yeon: "Okay, be home at 10."

Ancestors of K-beauty - 8090s edition

The 5 beauty trend queens :

- of the 80s :

Oh Hyun-kyung - the fact that shes the most prolific Miss Korea winner - 1989 - says it all. Plus that lip commercial? Iconic. The MiKos were the beauty trendsetters of the 80s and the industry literally set the "Jin" as the standard of make up the next few years.

Hwang Shin-hye - homegirl ain't called Computer Beauty for nothing! The only person who actually embodied both the 80s and 90s at the same time. She had naturally arched eyebrows and those heart shaped lips that later became a thing.

Lee Ji-yeon - the originator of the innocent concept and image in the pop music industry, which is the entire k-beauty aesthetic now. Give her the credit. See through bangs, no makeup makeup, thick straight eyebrows, skincare, thin lips.

Kim Wan-sun - when people talk about a 80s diva, they mean her.

Jang Yoon-jeong - Miss Universe contestant in 1988 and a big part of the 80s look - plump lips and cheeks, an obnoxious curl in the forehead, big hair, red lipstick, purple eyeshadow...

Honourable mentions : Lee Mi-yeon for being the absolute innocent cutiepieeee

1990s :

Lee Young-ae : Her 1992 Mamonde Lip commercial literally turned the beauty world upside down. She was the embodiment of the strong, city, career woman that was the image women wanted to be , in those few seconds. Dark red lipstick, short shoulder length hair, pant suit, iconic. Literally influenced the industry for the next 7 years or so.

Kim Hye-soo : She embodied the "career woman" image since the beginning and always had a more mature persona, and especially her dark and matte eye looks as well as her super arched eyebrows were to die for.

Kim Hee-sun : Trendy hairstyle queen - she got the strand highlights, the low ponytail, the hairband and so many other big trends out there. Plus her lips were always dark and we love it.

Ha Soo-bin : the k-manhwa aesthetic in one human, was super popular despite the strong career unnie image being prevalent. It was her shocking popularity that the above trend faded and more natural, innocent makeup following Soobin's appearance became the aesthetic.

Lee Seung-yeon : Miss Korea second runner up, had a pretty illustrious career plus super iconic Smokey eye look. Alao popularised perma curls and headbands after her role in "Cinderella"
