WEDDING IMPOSSIBLE

GENRES: Comedy, Romance

SUMMARY: An actress plans to fake-marry her best friend but ends up going from enemies-to-lovers with his brother.

THIS SHOW HAS EVERYTHING: Lonely house dogs, lazy workdays, day trips to Busan, bus trips to undefined countrysides, acting contracts, bratty step siblings, thumb drives full of secrets, and a lot of running while holding hands.

HOT TAKE: This show could have taken a really earnest look at how people come to terms with their identity, their future, and how that intertwines with family expectations. Instead, it was a masterclass in vapid, stubborn chaebol power struggles, a vacuum of romantic chemistry, and never getting to the fucking point.

I kind of hate every character in this show? There was no real personal development for anyone, so they just came off as not really acting for their own benefit OR the benefit of others. The main plot's pacing was all over the place, there were too many unappealing sub-plots, and everything got conveniently tied up in an unsatisfying bow during the last 15 minutes of the series.

Twinkling Watermelon

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2023

Twinkling Watermelon (2023, South Korea)

Directors: Son Jung Hyun & Yoo Beom Sang

Writer: Jin Soo Wan

Mini-review:

I loved Twinkling Watermelon so so much. This drama made my Mondays and Tuesdays for eight weeks. The story might not be groundbreaking, but it's incredibly well-written and fun. I was afraid the plot would be too simple to make it through 16 one-hour episodes, but it never dragged at all. There was always something to look forward to, and many of the twists caught me by surprise. On top of that, the writer gave us two fantastic love stories. Seriously, both of them are among the best I've seen in a K-drama. But the real focus of the show is the friendship between all the main characters, and its portrayal of youth was really heartwarming and nostalgic. And the whole cast was incredible too, they absolutely delivered at every turn. The only flaw I can point out is that the representation wasn't perfect, and they should've hired at least some deaf actors. Besides that, I don't have any complaints. I might go as far as saying this is one of my favorite dramas of all time, and I'm gonna miss it so much.

Diziye başladıktan yaklaşık 1 saat sonra çok net bir şekilde “How to Get Away with Murder” havasını alıyorsunuz... İki dizinin çok ortak noktası ve benzerlikleri olması bu havayı güçlendiriyor. Tabi ki dizilerin birbiri ile alakası yok ama ister istemez benzeştiriyorsunuz. Kore dizilerinin tatlı ilişkileri, tesadüfleri, yanlış anlaşılmaları, küçüklükten tanışıklıkları gibi gibi klişelerin hiç birisi bu dizide yok. Dizinin konusu ve çizgisi tek bir şeye odaklanmış. Bence çok da güzel olmuş. Türkiye’de çok fazla Kore sineması bilinmediği için bizim haberimiz olmamış ama yayınlandığı dönem dünya çapında Netflix listelerinde zirveye yerleşmiş.

“Gerçeğe ve adalete giden yol hukuktan geçer.” Diyerek başlıyor dizimiz. Konusu ise prestijli bir üniversitenin hukuk fakültesindeki öğrencilerinin etrafında dönüyor. Merkezlerinde ise, eski savcı olan üniversite profesörü Yang Jong-Hoon (Kim Myung-Min) bulunuyor. Jong-Hoon öğrencilerine ceza hukuku öğretiyor. Açık sözlü ve sivri dilli olan bu hocamız oldukça kaba olması ile ünlü. Öğrenciler onu sevmeseler bile hem saygı duyuyor hem çekiniyorlar. Hocamızın ise bu durum umurunda değil. Tek amacı adil ve katkı sağlayan insanlar yetiştirip, doğru eğitim ile topluma düzgün hukukçular kazandırmak.

Katıldıkları bir ders sırasında beklenmedik bir şekilde, eski başsavcı olan diğer bir Profesör Seo Byung-Ju (Ahn Nae-Sang) odasında ölü olarak bulunur. Bütün deliler ise Profesör Yang’ı göstermektedir. Cinayeti kimin işlediğini bulmaya çalıştığımız bir hikaye örgüsü içerisinde eş zamanlı anlatılan diğer davalar, insan ilişkileri ve karakterlerin özel hayatları önümüze seriliyor.

Profesör Yang’ın öğrencileri hocalarını aklamaya çalışırken diğer yandan izleyicinin şüphelerini de üstlerine çekiyorlar. İzlerken sürekli katilin kim olduğu ile ilgili kafanız karışıyor. Dizi ile ilgili olumsuz olduğunu düşündüğüm noktalardan biri inanılmaz karışık bir zaman çizelgesi ile başlamış olmasıydı. İzlediğiniz sahnenin hangi zamana ait olduğunu anlamakta zorlanıyorsunuz. Ve bunu ilk bölümlerde kalabalık bir kadroyu tanımaya çalışırken yapıyorsunuz. Çok fazla karakteri bir anda yüklüyorlar. Birkaç bölüm geçip karakterleri tanımaya başladığınızda dizinin içine girebiliyorsunuz. Hukuk terimleri ve davalar için söyleyecek bir sözüm yok, dizinin rengi başından belli olduğu için bundan şikayet etmeye hakkımız olduğunu sanmıyorum. Bu tarz sağlık, hukuk gibi ciddi alanlarda bir şeyler izlemeyi sevmiyorsanız hiç size göre olmayabilir.

Çok fazla oyuncu olduğu için tek tek üzerinden geçmek zaman kaybı olacaktır. Ben izlerken bir tık ön plana çıkan iki kişiden bahsedeyim. İlki; okulda hocalık yapan eski hakim Kim Eun-Suk rolündeki Lee Jung-Eun’du. Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha, Soundtrack 1, Our Blues, Familiar Wife, Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-Joo, Fight for My Way, Oh My Ghost ve Mr. Sunshine gibi oldukça başarılı dizilere ismini yazdırmış bir oyuncu kendisi. Kore standartlarına uymayan proporsiyonlarına rağmen oynadığı her rolün altından başarı ile kalktı. Bu dizide de bence göz dolduruyordu. İkinci kişi ise, dizinin baş rolü sayılabilecek bir isim, Kim Beom’du. Tale of the Nine Tailed dizisinin yavru tilkisi bu dizide sınıf birincisi Han Joon-Hwi (Kim Beom) rolündeydi. Ghost Doctor dizisi ile başrolü kaldırabileceğini kanıtlamıştı. 

Konusu, kurgusu ve çekimleri ile çizgisini bozmayan yakışıklı bir dizi yapmışlar. Bir de üzerine oyunculuklarla enfes bir hale getirmişler. Özellikle müziklerini beğendiğim dizi sayısı çok az. Law school müzik konusunda tam bir profesyonellik örneği olabilir. Sahne geçişlerinde, karakterlerin tavan yaptığı noktalarda, duygu değişimlerinde bütün müzikler cuk oturuyordu. Belki sonrasında açıp dinlemek için çok uygun değillerdi ama dizi ile bir bütün hale gelmişti. Bütün sahnenin duygusunu zirveye taşıyordu.

Adalet, rekabet, suç, gizem, azim, hırs ne ararsanız vardı. Tek bir şey eksikti. Bittiğinde nasıl üzüldüm anlatamam. Dizide çift yoktu. Aşk vardı ama hep arka planda kaldı. Bastırıldı, örselendi. Joon-Hwi (Kim Beom)‘nin aşık halleri inanılmaz sevimliydi. Dizi bittiğinde o aşkın devamını görememiş olmak beni çok büyük hayal kırıklığına uğrattı. Birçok dizideki çiftten çok daha mükemmel bir ikili izleyebilirdik.

Kısaca dikkat çeken çalışma grubunun üzerinden de geçeyim. Kang Sol A(Ryoo Hye-Young), bölüme zar zor girmiş fakir bir aileden gelen en normal karakterdir. Diğerlerine yetişmek için ekstra ekstra çabalamak zorundadır. Kang Sol B(Lee Soo-Kyung) ise aynı isme sahip tam tersi bir karakterdir. Hırslı, yüksek notlar alan ve zengin bir aileden gelen soğuk bir kızdır. Seo Ji-Ho(David Lee), hep yavru köpek gibi üzgün bakışları olan sürekli bir şeylere canı sıkkınmış gibi dolaşan kendi halinde bir çocuktur. Jeon Ye-Seul (Ko Yoon-Jung) ortalama bir öğrencidir. Güzelliği ile ön plandadır. Yoo Seung-Jae(Hyun Woo) öğrenciden çok öğretim görevlisi gibi görünen aklı başında ağır başlı bir karakterdir. Min Bok-Ki(Lee Kang-Ji) çalışma grubunun maskotu gibidir. Hareketli eğlenceli bir öğrencidir. Jo Ye-Beom(Kim Min-Seok) öğretmenlerin gözüne girmeye çalışan ama onu sivriltecek bir özelliği olmayan silik bir karakterdir.

Ve kötü karakterlerden biri olan savcı Jin Hyeong-U (Park Hyuk-Kwon) oyunculuk anlamında göz dolduran bir diğer isimdi. Dikkat çeken 2 isim var demiştim ama dizi birçok iyi oyuncuya ev sahipliği yapmayı başarmış görünüyor. Park Hyuk-Kwon’u birçok dizide yan rollerde izledik. Something in the Rain, Where Stars Land ve en son Reborn Rich dizileri bunlardan sadece birkaçı.

Sonuç olarak, dizi beni tatmin etti. Çok keyif alarak merakla izledim. Bu tarz dizilerden sıkılmıyorsanız kesinlikle izlemelisiniz.

The Nature of Do-young and Dong-soo's Relationship

To start, I want to bring up how Do-young himself categorises their relationship, comparing it to Moon Sang-guk and Kim Jae-yeol.

This in itself is interesting because it shows just how aware and conscious he is of how closely they mirror their enemies. But what's even more interesting is the framing of this moment and this scene in general. Do-young and Dong-soo are sitting down, side by side, equal in height and distance. But does this mean that their relationship is now balanced? No and this is enforced by Do-young's answer to Dong-soo's question.

"They're like us. An attorney and a client."

By bringing up their roles in their relationship, Do-young emphasises the power dynamic in their partnership. Dong-soo is his attorney, hired by him to serve the his [the client's] needs. The same way that it may seem like Moon Sang-guk and Kim Jae-yeol have equal levels of power, it's clear who wields the sword and who buckles beneath it's weight.

This is made even more clear throughout the episode as we see Dong-soo coming up with clever plans to further the success of Do-young's business. However, unlike in previous episodes, Dong-soo receives verbal praise and recognition from Do-young, an act that pleases Dong-soo and continues to embolden him throughout the episode, leading him to make more daring moves on behalf of their joint goal.

One of these daring acts is when Dong-soo decides to visit Kim Jae-yeol in hospital in order to increase his distrust in Moon Sang-guk. However, this visit leads to Dong-soo almost losing his own life as he gets attacked by Jae-yeol's bodyguard. But while Dong-soo tries to fight him off, who comes to his rescue, who saves him from near death?

Do-young.

This singular moment bares so much significance in their relationship because this act is not only intimate, it's personal. Not only is this filmed in such a way to reflect this but Dong-soo's expression communicates just how pivotal this was!

In the past, Do-young has sent Oh-jae, his right-hand man, to save Dong-soo from a rival gang's attempts to hurt him. But for the man himself to come down from his throne and personally prevent such an attack speaks volumes. But what's interesting about this scene is their power dynamic remains unchanged. Do-young doesn't even help Dong-soo up, he looks down on him, fixing him into submission by a mere glance, a powerful gaze.

This formidable control that Do-young has over Dong-soo is shown throughout the episode. From Do-young's mere presence being a motivation for Dong-soo to brutally beat up the Family Gang's leader, and his need for Do-young's validation inspiring him to take even more dangerous risks.

But the moment that enforces this the most for me is how Dong-soo reacts when Do-young answers his phone call. Now after learning that Kim Jae-yeol's arrest was suspended, Do-young ignores Dong-soo's call earlier in the episode, punishing him for failing to achieve their plans. But later on, when Dong-soo calls him again, Do-young picks up and this is how Dong-soo reacts.

Not only was Dong-soo holding his breath as the phone was ringing, but when he hears that he's been connected, Dong-soo inhales deeply, almost out of relief, as if this mere action was a gift from God, a sign that he was back in his good graces.

This hold that Do-young has on him is even further enforced when Beom-jae warns him that the gangster is using him for his own goals, to which Dong-soo replies:

"So what? To catch Moon Sang-guk, I need Seo Do-young too."

Dong-soo acknowledges that he's being used and accepts it, the same way that he accepts Do-young's gifts, which he was given even more of in this episode! And it's this power dynamic based on validation and submission that is at the core of their relationship.

Dong-soo allows himself to be moulded into whatever Do-young desires/needs and in return Do-young gives Dong-soo special treatment, allowing him to make decisions on behalf his business and share his power. And it's these components of their partnership that keep them balanced and their relationship intact. Both of them know their roles and the mutual benefits they receive from their alliance. It's this awareness that will keep them together and help them to become stronger than their enemies. (at least I hope🥺️😭)

Funny moments from the Evilive BTSs 3/6

Shin Jae Ha - Han Beom Jae

Kim Jung Min - Director

Kim Young Kwang - Seo Do Young

Shin Ha Kyun - Han Dong Soo

Park Sang Won - Sang Woo

Caption: It took more than six minutes to film this scene. (Dong Soo and Beom Jae try to move their legs the moment they hear the "Cut!")

Caption: It is not easy to stand up so soon with sleepy legs.

Caption: Beom Jae looks so troubled.

Caption: (But what are the cute stickers on his back?)

Shin Jae Ha: They are for the mosquitoes.

Shin Jae Ha: There are so many of them here!

Caption: (How about some celebratory barley tea after? 😄)

Kim Jung Min: Please walk more slowly!

Caption: SLOW NOW

Caption: There is no "medium" speed; only "fast" and "slow" here 🤣

Caption: The door opens and Do Young enters.

Kim Young Kwang: How about me coming in carrying a chair?

Caption: (That would've been even scarier, for sure...)

Caption: What is the strange squeaking sound??

Caption: An otter has visited!

Caption: Everyone was momentarily distracted. (Except the actors, who were busy acting and missed it.)

Shin Ha Kyun: Wow! It was not a fish, it was an otter!

Kim Young Kwang: What! I wish I saw that...

Kim Young Kwang: Everyone's fascinated by a wild animal...

Caption: ...even if the show itself is dark and bloody 😅

Kim Young Kwang: WOWWWW! 🤩

Kim Young Kwang: I just pretended I was understanding everything!

Caption: Do Young didn't get a single thing, but he applauds nonetheless. He simply might be a big fan of Dong Soo. (Even Beom Jae is laughing, looking at Do Young 😆)

Caption: Sang Woo was about to start clapping, but...

Park Sang Won: Sorry, boss.

Caption: The boss is watching each and every one of them. (You can't even clap when you feel like it in this line of business!)

Caption: Staring at each other without saying anything makes them laugh.

Caption: Do Young failed not to laugh again, but there is a valid reason this time.

Shin Ha Kyun: I feel like I should look visibly surprised seeing him. Like, 'How has he found out??'

Kim Young Kwang: I had it under control until I saw your face!

Caption: This time, it was Dong Soo's certain look on his face that made Do Young lose it 😂
