DRAMA REVIEW | Not Others (2023)
This drama was a pleasant surprise. It's not that common to see a kdrama that has as leads a single mother and her grown daughter, mostly because of the stigma this kind of family stills carries in South Korea.
Thankfully, Not Others manages to not make it all about the stigma of teen pregnancy or single motherhood, it finds a good balance between every day life events, criminal investigation and rom-com. Particularly because Mom and Daughter are so unbothered by it that they carry on with a "it sounds like a you problem" when someone points out they are, within their society, wildly unconventional.
At the heart of it, there's a story of two women making their way in the world through hardships, love and growing pains. About how it's possible to choose your family and make that unit be whatever you want, not what it's expected.
My favourite part of this drama was the performances. Jeon Hye Jin and Soo-young shine as the outspoken Mother-Daughter duo. Their characters are kind, smart and brave about their life choices. They have great chemistry with each other and make you feel everything.
The rest of the cast delivers solid support. Kim Hye Eun plays the rich, cool aunt and she's a hoot in every scene she's in. Park Sung-hoon in a great counterpart for Soo-young and Ahn Jae Wook delivers as the lovable fool supporting whatever his ladies wish for.
There's also a murder mystery surrounding the central story that manages to keep it all very centered and makes all the characters interact with each other making their world better developed.
Don't miss out on this found family! Their affection it's the real deal.

Asian male leads that went against the norms and redefined thirst traps for you?
For me it was lee joon gi from flower of evil! Who is the genius tell me!!! That decided to make this meticulous, detail oriented crafty man who is painted as a violent sociopath but turns out to be a huuuuuge softie in need of love and just wants to make his family happy and get some cuddles and stuff
my brain's a little too fuzzy right now so idk about going against the norms, but here's some favorite Characters That Are Just Hot
ma dong seok as yoon sang hwa | train to busan
Tumblr media
he loves his wife and unborn baby. he wears a fancy lil scarf. he'll punch you into the roof of a train car. the sheer bruhery of this guy.
jang hyuk as park gye won | bloody heart
Tumblr media
look this whole post could just be jang hyuk characters (his character in chuno i think is the quintessential definition of a thirst trap), but this character gets a special shout-out because he works the least sexiest outfit of Royal Minister for the duration of the drama and also the atrocities??
wi ha joon as choi do il | little women
Tumblr media
the clown wigs i wore throughout this entire drama because of this guy. sort of like a human trojan horse but snaccify it. being toxic in his little outfits 10/10
chen kun as ning yi | the rise of phoenixes
Tumblr media
mansplain. manipulate. malewife. "chen kun with long hair" is a Movement.
shin sung rok as kim seo jin | kairos
Tumblr media
when you like them flawed and morally ambiguous and in desperate need of a divorce. "i can fix him" but if fixing him required you to probably stab someone in an infinite time loop down the road
shin ha kyun as lee dong sik | beyond evil
Tumblr media
he's done nothing wrong in his entire life except for perhaps inspiring the thousands of morally ambiguous daddy complexes that emerged from this drama
BONUS! some ladies
ha ji won as sung nyang | empress ki
Tumblr media
she'll get your whole family killed and ruin your career and you'll thank her for it
lee si young as seo yi kyung | sweet home
Tumblr media
ma'am.
kim ok bin as taealha | arthdal chronicles
Tumblr media
she's scary (appreciative)

Parasite -Decoding & Deconstructing
Tumblr media
Released in 2019, Parasite is a film by director Bong Joon-ho that deals with the issues between the poor and the rich people in society. It is more like a smaller version of South Korea, conveying the stereotype that the rich are happy and the poor are always unhappy. The actors in the film are perfect, but the director put the plot into a movie full of holes. To express and show the problem, it is an ideal commercial film, but it does not reflect the real social issues and is not worth more analysis and reflection. Generally speaking, for a movie with a strong story, there is a minimum requirement for the plot development to conform to the basic logic. Of course, some degree of factual and logical sacrifice is necessary for theme expression and dramatic effect. But this sacrifice of the actual parasite plot does not achieve the same thematic expression effect, which is empty.
First, arranging four family members into the wealthy family, which takes up the first 1/3 of the film, is very dramatic and does not go smoothly with common sense. Suppose the director asked Choi Woo-Sik for a job interview on the first day and suggested that a clip of his sister Kim Ki-Jung would show the character's ingenuity. (19:45 -- 20:37) In the latter part, the director arranged all the members of the Kim family into the Park family was too deliberate. Although the director uses this plot to express the unfairness of wealth and status in the character of the rich who are "naive" and "easy to fool," Bong Joon-ho forgot that the art of cinema comes from the reality of life, above life. This has wholly ignored the plot elements that can foreshadow a character.
If the Kim family moving smoothly into the mansion is necessary for the development of the plot, then they can also be unobtrusively qualified for the work of the mansion; it seems too false and strange. First, being a nanny and a driver for a wealthy family is not a simple job, especially for Gook Moon-gwang nanny, who had worked for years under a former builder before getting used to it. Apart from the work content, the nanny's mannerisms and appearance are entirely different from those of the old couple living in the slum environment. From 50:30-52:00, the director asked Jang Hye-jin to play the role of the nanny, and it can be seen that she was able to do the job very quickly. Then, of course, to convince the audience of the Kim family s deceitful tactics and loopholes, the director features Choi Woo-Sik rehearsing at home (42:00-43:01) and questioning the taste of Jang Hye-jin and Kim Ki-taek with the Park family s son. However, these passages are illogical and undermine the legitimacy of the characters. Let the wealthy family's "easy to fool" side becomes "stupid"; the poor become "Superman."
The screenwriter and director do not understand the appearance of the actual poor and the real rich, divorced from the background of the time to show the characters, will become an artistic puppet that overhead reality. The rich man in the film does not look like the rich man, although the director does not set the image of the successor of the chaebol status or a man born with a silver spoon but is a company boss. Because , the director sets the level of a successful person to be inferior to that of a chauffeur, making people think Park's family got rich by lottery. For example, in the clip (48:00-50:30), Kim Ki-taek made Park Dong-ik and Choi Yeon-gyo believe their fake company, The Care, by using fake business cards to make his wife become the nanny of the Park family. The Park family quickly believed them and did not investigate the company. The rich image played by Lee Sun-kyun is untenable after such content development. Just imagine which wealthy company boss can easily trust others to recommend the company; capitalists rely on exploitation that also has to be social elite. The director does not pave the way for this unexplained plot, nor does he explain the follow-up. Although Bong wanted to use such stories to construct the differences and a follow-up story about the development of parasitic behaviors between the rich and the poor, his characterization was always on the surface. It cannot convince the audience that this is real life. In the movie, the director made Choi Woo-sik and Park So-dam's poor family characters not look even poor. Society has different kinds of poor families because they may have no ability and no chance to get work, but the director only created the poor family with a thoughtful mind, quick-witted, capable of faking and deceiving and planning out the proper lines in advance. For such a family, it would be completely impractical for the director to let them live in a semi-basement setting. If the family's personality is based on reality, it's more likely that viewers will believe that they've already cheated their way to little success.
In addition, on a rainy night of camping, the Kim family occupied the host's house but suddenly encountered a visit from Gook Moon-gwang. Gook Moon-gwang's husband had been hiding in the basement of the house. Both families lived tough, and both think each other is a good person just because of poverty, so there is no surplus sympathy to share with others. They also believe that if they are rich like the Park family, they will naturally live sincerely and kindly. (1:02:55 -- 1:09:17) The director is trying to say that poverty is the reason for them or that poverty is the reason for the original sin. To maintain the most basic survival needs, people can break all moral bottom lines and harm others. But why poor? The director didn't expand the content and touch on fundamental reasons. Gook Moon-gwang's family owes money to loan sharks because her husband failed in business. The Kim family doesn't take things seriously on the job. Here, the director's explanation of the social government is absent. The Park family's rich and the Kim family's poor have also become synonymous with good and evil. The conclusion that rich people tend to be good should be based on the premise that everyone has the same moral height, regardless of the rich and poor. However, the movie does not describe the story of the characters played by Lee Sun-Kyun and Cho Yeo-Jeong, but highlights the characteristics of being easy to deceive. The Kim family always wants more after work by cheating. Gook Moon-gwang's husband even thinks life in the villa's basement is so good that he can always live there. Compared with the generosity of the Park family, the director's plot expression made the poor people deprived of even the people's eyes of sympathy.
Tumblr media
It would be impossible if the director did not think to express the difference between the poor and the rich, the rich despise the poor. On the contrary, the director is very self-centered in his expression. For example, "smell" is his focus in this film. In the story, the Kim family has many poor appearance plots and loopholes as they become fake rich workers, but the director would not make the Park family notice. Instead, he uses "smell" as a metaphor to make Park feel the taste of the poor. Of course, there's no problem with "smell" as a cinematic metaphor,  but he mistakenly deliberately highlights it so that this element is overused and boring. The director was afraid that the audience could not see what he wanted to express, and he let Lee Sun-Kyun repeatedly say it from beginning to end, regardless of whether it was reasonable. It seems that whenever the director thinks it's time for a "smell" to appear, it should. As for what reason it occurs, no one knows. For example, it's understandable that the killer escapes from the basement and is filled with hatred to seek revenge on the main character's family. The killer stabbed So-dam Park's Kim Ki-Jung because he saw her in the first spot, which is also understandable. However, the problem came when Park Dong-ik picked up the car keys from underneath the killer after he got killed in reverse. (1:52:50-1:55:50) This time, the appearance of the smell is straightforward, as if all the previous preparation is for this moment; all smells created are meant to rationalize Park Dong-ik's killing. The director thoughtfully clarifies Kim's father's "bad" charges, even not evil people into bad ones.
The climax of the conflict that the director has to create when he starts the story but cannot solve the ending. The same goes for the movie ending (1:55:56-1:58:47), where the director keeps the people he needs and cuts out the characters he feels he can't reasonably explain. An inexplicable appearance at the scene of the criminal, the reporter only said "a homeless death" as the result of the investigation; After Kim killed Park and disappeared from the house, the police did not investigate the house and concluded the investigation with the verdict of "Kim Ki-taek is missing." These are places where the ending of the movie doesn't make sense. But the director doesn't seem to care because he only wants to express this parasitic problem of poverty and wealth that can never break through through Kim, who stays in the basement and writes letters, and Kim's son, who gets letters outside. Kim Ki-taek does not know when her son will see the signal but types Morse code once a day (1:59:20 -- 2:04:06). As you can see, the light flash is visible outside but also inside the house. The director doesn't explain whether the Germans will find out about the ending.
As a drama with the gap between the rich and the poor as the main contradiction, it leads to the intensification of the contradiction in reality, and brings a kind of impersonal negative feeling of "yes, life is like this". As a purely entertaining commercial film, it kind of passes, but as a film that provokes human reflection, it does not make any sense, and even has the opposite effect.

I’m trying to binge-watch the Kdrama “Missing Crown Prince” starring Suho and Hong Ye Ji (whom I remember from “Love Song for Illusion”). Unfortunately, though I love Hong Ye Ji’s character, Lady Choi Myeung Yun, Suho’s character Crown Prince Yi Geon doesn’t do much for me. I find him bland and I can’t seem to resonate with him emotionally.
While his plight as the wronged crown prince has been fodder for many a Kdrama in the past, I think other dramas developed the plot and character better. Suho is doing a decent job (not Lee Sun Kyun levels by any means but good enough for a light drama like this one) as an actor so maybe it’s the way his character was written. I feel like Yi Geon’s emotional arc is always just on the brink of reaching its climax but not really getting enough energy so it always falls short.
I liked Hong Ye Ji when I first saw her in “Love Song for Illusion” (though I dropped this drama when I decided to go for “Captivating The King”, which seemed like a better version of its plot). She plays the part of a strong female lead very well. However, I felt like her character Myeung Yun faltered midway in the drama because they suddenly took her out of the scenes to make way for Grand Prince Do Seong’s arc. She became confined in their mansion with nothing better to do but sit there and worry about what’s happening to her father and the mysterious scholar she saved.
I wasn’t into the romance either. I felt like Yi Geon and Myeung Yun were being forced into a romantic setup by the drama just because they were the leads. I actually felt like Myeung Yun seemed to have more substantial encounters with Do Seong than with Yi Geon, even though she nurses Yi Geon’s injuries a couple of times.
Grand Prince Do Seong (played by Kim Min-kyu) is cute and he has a great hyung-nim/dong saeng vibe with Yi Geon, but his serious moments lacked the gravitas to convince me to take him seriously. He just looked too much like a lost little boy.
In any case, this drama is okay if all you want is something to pass the time.

Parasite - A Divide In Class
Tumblr media
Title – Parasite (2019)
Director – Bong Joon-Ho 
Cast – Choi Woo-shik, Park So-dam, Song Kang-ho, Lee Sun-kyun, Cho Yeo-jeong, Jang Hye-jin 
Plot – Parasite revolves around the Kim family of four living below the poverty line, struggling to make ends meet. But then (!!) the son of the family, Ki-woo (Choi Woo-shik), gets a business venture from his friend, Min (Park Seo-joon), to work as a tutor for the daughter of the rich, well-off Park family. This is the initial catapult into this story… Slowly (but surely), the Kims worm their way into the lives of the Parks like parasites…
At its core, this film is a social commentary on the deep-rooted societal issues of class division and economic inequality present in South Korea. It gives insight into the divide between the two classes and serves as a device to portray the grim contrast of the ever-growing gap between the rich and the poor. Parasite is a story that doesn’t necessarily have villains or heroes, just people who are products of their environments. This thriller-comedy explores the lengths people will go to support their families.
Before I delve into these influential characters that were created for this film, I want to address the recent passing of Lee Sun-kyun. Lee played the role of Park Dong-ik, the patriarch of the Park family, and he did an exceptional job of portraying a pompous businessman. Sadly, the actor took his own life on the 27th of December, 2023. This came as quite a shock, not only in South Korea but to the rest of the world. Lee Sun-kyun was a well-known K-drama actor known for his notable role in Coffee Prince (Lee Yoon-jung, 2007). The circumstance revolving around his death is one that I hope gives South Koreans an awakening to the worrisome problem of famous Korean stars feeling pressure into committing suicide as the only option for their personal issues. Lee Sun-kyun will be remembered as an outstanding actor.
The cast of this film worked insanely well together, which is reflected in how the characters interacted with one another. Each character brings a different aspect and perspective to the story. 
Park Yeon-kyo (Cho Yeo-jeong), the mother of the affluent family, fell for the scheme of the Kim family, thinking that she was making the best choices for her family. While this can be seen as wrongdoing by the Kims, they were left in a dire situation where this seemed like the best option. The system they are living in South Korea does not favour them, so why should they oblige to it?
From a technical standpoint, Parasite exceeds all expectations for a successful film. Places where this film truly excels are in the use of sets and props. One prop detail that stands out to me is the waste bin in the Park household. It can be a detail that is easily overlooked, but the waste bin is completely silent and only for $2300! This is obviously quite a hefty price for a bin, and Bong Joon-ho thought so as well, stating that he “and my (his) crew members were like: ‘What the f**k? What kind of idiot would buy a trash can that’s going to smell anyway?” The absurdity of the price of the bin is funnily enough fitting to something that would definitely be in the Park’s house. 
Bong Joon-Ho is able to convey his message in the division of class between the Kims and Parks through the different sets for their houses. The Kim family live in a basement flat at the bottom of a hill, symbolising how they are at the lowest, not only literally but also financially. They are crammed into a filthy apartment that is regularly mentioned as being pungent, to the point where it leaves a smell on them. Meanwhile, the Park family lives near the top of a hill, representing their financial prospects. This house is depicted as a grand architectural masterpiece that is always clean and tidy, thanks to the domestic housekeeper.
Bong Joon-Ho truly created a cinematic masterpiece with this film, and I am not saying this to be biased; he literally did. Parasite received the Palme d’Or from the Cannes Film Festival and four Academy Awards from the Oscars, including the ones for Best Picture and Best Directing. Bong achieved an incredibly difficult feat by receiving the most prestigious awards, and all for the same film. This mass international recognition from a South Korean film to a Western audience was a challenge, considering the language barrier, but despite that, in a historical moment, Parasite was the first non-English film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture. All these awards only further prove how Bong Joon-Ho is one the most credible and decorated directors of this age in cinema.
Concluding Thoughts – In the end, Parasite is a film that was deserving of all the awards and praise it received. I’m embarrassed to say it took me four years after its initial release to view the film; I feel that I missed out on its original hype, but regardless of that, I am very glad I thoroughly enjoyed it. This film captivates through brilliantly thought-through dark humour in a way that many other films strive to. I would highly recommend it to anyone who has yet to watch it!
My final rating – ★★★★★
