2020 tvN, OCN, JTBC Drama Line-up
2020/01/02, Source
There has been a huge shift in home theaters in 2019; cable and general programming are finally producing results that threaten ground-wave channels. While ground-wave dramas plunged down to 2~3%, jTBC's "SKY Castle" jumped over the 20% wall. tvN and OCN haven't had significant results, but they created several popular dramas such as "Hotel Del Luna", "Crash Landing on You" and "Strangers from Hell". It has become an environment where platforms for accessing content are diverse, and viewers are no longer dependent on just TV.

In the opening scene to "Love, Again" we see Hyeon-woo (played by Kwon Sang-woo) and Seon-yeong (played by Lee Jung-hyun) having a bitter, meaningless argument.

Joong-soo (played by Bae Sung-woo) is a Catholic priest and exorcist.

Further events create the disturbing impression that the demonic spirit's actual goal was just to get into Joong-soo's head, although cryptic warnings about a horrible fate to befall Joong-soo's family are, well, the actual plot of the movie,...More

As a fan of both of these actors and their project choices, this film does appeal to me, especially the part where Kim Hae-sook's character attacks Kim Rae-won's. I want to know why, and to do that, this film needs to come out,...More
[HanCinema's Film Review] "Midnight Runners"
2017/08/26
Gi-joon (played by Park Seo-joon) is a well-meaning generally dopey kid who loves meat. Hee-yeol (played by Kang Ha-neul) is a bespectacled stiff young man who knows where the meat comes from. Together, they join the police academy...and train, is technically all they do for most of "Midnight Runners", since they're not real cops. We even get a training montage near the end, where we see them get all manly and swole for the sake of taking on the movie's final boss- crime, in the abstract,...More

[HanCinema's Film Review] "Real"
2017/07/08
Tae-yeong (played by Kim Soo-hyun) is a man in a suit who owns a casino and can always be found chewing gum. The first act of "Real" has him talking to psychiatrist Jin-gi (played by Lee Sung-min) about some sort of...thing that happened. This framing device ends up being dropped completely as Tae-yeong ends up embroiled in some sort of...thing involving his exact duplicate (also played by Kim Soo-hyun) who is differentiated from the original by a crystal mask, then padding, and finally glasses. Then they do lots of other...things that are highly sexy, violent, and colorful, but otherwise largely incomprehensible,...More

"The Legend of the Blue Sea" isn't an overly complex story. Unlike "My Love from the Star" it is a a little light on deeper plot development. The action moves forward as does the romance, but this drama seems more about light enjoyment (despite heavy subject matter) than serious plot exploration. There is nothing wrong with such a drama. In fact, it's welcome, especially when Jun Ji-hyun and her penchant for comedy are involved. That said, Jun Ji-hyun and her spot on comedic acting can't save a lack of clean direction,...More

[HanCinema's Drama Review] "Scarlet Heart: Ryeo" Episode 7
2016/09/13
Soo begins her adjustment to palace life under the harsh eye of Lady Oh (played by Woo Hee-jin). It's hard to feel sorry for Soo because while aspects of her new life are obviously unpleasant, they're also fairly unremarkable considering this is Goryeo. You know, none of the other maids get to have pick me ups in the form of handsome princes chasing them around every few scenes. Although I'll admit getting mad at Soo for giving immediate medical attention to the man angrily demanding immediate medical attention was kind of silly,...More

2016/05/14
The Actual Case The film is based on an actual unsolved case that shocked the nation for over a decade, and regarded the disappearance of five kids, from 9 to 13 years old, in the Daegu Mountains in 1991. The children (U Cheol-won, Jo Ho-yeon, Kim Yeong-gyu, Park Chan-in and Kim Jong-sik) were living in a village near Mt. Waryong and on the 26th of that year decided to head to the mountain to search for salamander eggs, following a path that begun in the back of their school. After failing to return for several hours, their worried parents called the police. The authorities though, were certain that it was a usual case of children getting away for a few days and then returning, and they did not proceed to a formal investigation, despite the parents' pleas,...More

2016/01/16
We find out who Deok-seon's husband is, and you'll probably be surprised at the groom's identity in the grand wedding setpiece. Not that this is all that important. The main thrust of "Answer Me 1988" has always been on the powerful sense of community. This, oddly enough, is the most important part of wedding preparation presented here- the characters have to come to grips with the fact that they're leaving their parents' home, to start out on something new,...More

The wrap-up for "Answer Me 1988" begins, as we close here with a sort of pre-epilogue. Nothing is fully resolved quite yet, and indeed, as the cliffhanger reminds us, most of the adult characters really aren't even aware of what's going on romance-wise. That's because the major setpiece is a love letter to the parents of "Answer Me 1988"- the ones who did their best for their kids, and each other, and who will always have a loving community in thanks for that,...More

It looks like the characters are just hanging around in the same neighborhood and the same houses they were this entire time and yet somehow, everything looks a tad shinier. A tad cooler. Especially the characters themselves. Note how Taek very nearly appears cool and attractive now, even though he mostly acts the same. What's causing these changes? The haircuts? The beer?

The theme this episode is on pain, and how we recover from it. On the literal level it's just physical pain. Seong-gyoon is still smarting from his wound, and elsewhere other characters also deal with disabling accidents. But on the more powerful metaphorical level the main topic under discussion is emotional pain, as every potential romantic couple separates save for one. Then, one cute time slip montage later, we've jumped five years ahead to 1994,...More

With this episode "Answer Me 1988" attempts to explain why its story, to the extent this drama has a story at all, moves so slowly and with so little apparent inertia. Somewhat paradoxically, the reason for this is that the characters are mostly doing all right. They're happy. And the surest way to risk destroying happiness is through radical change. Making a love confession requires courage, not because we're scared of rejection, but because we're scared that the possible potential change could be for the worse,...More

Story has never really been a strong point of "Answer Me 1988". There's very little conflict to speak of, and what conflict we do get tends to be solved without much aplomb. Note how Seon-woo's reaction to the big emotional discoveries of the last episode is to...play catch with Taek's dad. Even bearing in mind the rather mild twist that comes out of that exposition, there's not really much more to that scene than what's right there on the surface,...More

One of the nicer parts of "Answer Me 1988" is how incredibly even-handed the drama is with character focus. Part of this is probably just a necessity of production- if Deok-seon was actually the focus the way lead characters normally are I'd expect Hyeri would have collapsed from exhaustion due to overwork by now. Instead, her role here is subdued to a mild act of heroism while focus instead shifts to Jeong-bong and Mi-ok. In case you don't remember who those characters are- Jeong-hwan's older brother and Deok-seon's shorter female friend,...More

Bo-ra helpfully narrates the theme of this episode at the closing. This is fortunate, since until that point I was at a bit of a loss as to what the title card, a linguistic variation on the title of "Superman is Back" variety show, had to do with the episode proper. We don't really get to see that much of men taking care of their families, unless you count Seong-gyoon's misadventures trying to fix household appliances back in the days before it was cheaper to just buy new. Indeed, one memorable sequence involves the entire neighborhood getting riled over a nonexistent crisis,...More

The theme this episode is love- nothing too excessive. As usual "Answer Me 1988" is focused on the subtle nuances of living in a close community, and this manifests best in the exploration of the relationship between So-ra and Seon-woo. It needs to be noted, once again, that this romance has a fairly unusual dynamic because these two literally grew up together. For them, dating isn't really a "get-to-know-you" thing because they already know each other,...More

Similar to last episode, there's not so much plot here, especially in the first portion as "Answer Me 1988" sticks to situation comedy. After strong episodes, or more specifically strong scenes of strong episodes, it's easy to get a little annoyed at low-stakes action like but I just have to remind myself that adolescence is a slow-burn and it's not really reasonable to expect that every big storyline event is going to receive a proper build-up.

The first portion of this episode moves pretty slow. It's just a token variety of the usual simple character jokes and pop culture references that "Answer Me 1988" always uses as a placeholder.

Even though the young characters are the main billed actors of "Answer Me 1988", I frequently get the feeling that it's the parents who are the real protagonists of the drama. The conflict of this episode is a case in point- the three main storylines are about the worries mothers have regarding what happens to their children when they're not looking. This being 1988, there are good precedents for that. There weren't any "don't try this at home disclaimers" for silly stunts seen on television. A lack of cell phones made checking up at home difficult. And also there was the whole college student movement getting into fights with the secret police,...More

Deok-seon wants to go to university. Her family is ambivalent about this. Which is weird to see because in the modern day this desire is so utterly banal that it barely even counts as a desire. In South Korea (and the United States too for that matter) everyone is supposed to go to college. It's not a factor that's influenced by such rational circumstances as money, career goals, or scholastic aptitude. As is usually the case with "Answer Me 1988", looking at the situation as presented in this drama mostly just makes me wonder why the world we live in today is the one that comes off weird in comparison,...More

The opening scenes are, rather innocently enough, about how girls like boys, but don't really know anything about them. That's the problem with having a peer group that also consists of teenagers. Everybody is equally clueless, but not everyone knows that they're equally clueless. This also leads to embarassments like Deok-seon's bizarre use of makeup. That's not a process which can or should be hurried. A pity the older So-ra is too busy being aggressive to offer much useful advice to her younger sister,...More

"The Martian" isn't going anywhere… Ridley Scott's sci-fi epic, "The Martian", managed to remain at the top of the box office pile without much fuss or competition.

After entering the fray last weekend in pole position, Nancy Meyers' "The Intern" had to take a step back in light of the next big space thriller to come out of Hollywood: "The Martian". Ridley Scott's adaptation of Andy Weir's novel was released in the States earlier this month, and has already grossed over $227 million worldwide, but arrived in Korea last Thursday and was given 1,132 screens to pool from. This epic space thriller has been well-received by critics and cinephiles alike (especially space junkies and science fans), and in Korea close to 1.5 million tickets were sold over its first weekend out,...More

Love Is Hope I wasn't sure what to expect of "It's Okay, That's Love" at all after hearing that it's about psychiatrists and psychological patients. However the atypical topic did immediately pique my curiosity but also uncertainty of what direction the Korean drama will take. Romance? Mystery? Fantasy? I decided to take a leap of faith and put my trust in two of my all time favorite actors: Jo In-sung and Gong Hyo-jin. I was not let down as the lead actors gave outstanding performances - so good that it was worth shedding tears for. The unexpected bonus was that many of the supporting characters were equally unique and memorable,...More

Yoo's "Gangnam Blues" shakes things up... Yoo Ha's action noir "Gangnam Blues" (aka "Gangnam 1970") was the number one player at box office over the weekend, pocketing over $5.5M (27%) and coming out on top in what was the most closely-contested tussle at the top we've seen thus far. The 709K filmgoers Yoo persuade into his caves (830) was narrowly enough to spoil Disney's big animated entrance into the game. "Big Hero 6" was, like Yoo's "Gangnam Blues", released in Korea last Wednesday, and competed over 822 screens to claimed 662K stubs ($5M - 25%). It was an awesome photo finish that ultimately favoured homemade Han over foreign fantasy, but only just,...More

Now that Jae-yeol's conflict has been mostly resolved, what else is there for the drama to do? We're not going to see the long, drawn-out recovery process, since that would be boring even if it's obviously important. And yes, it needs to be noted that there are in fact two timeskips here, and while Jae-yeol appears to have dealt with his problems by the time we get to the true ending, there's nothing particularly magical or unrealistic about his portrayal of happiness. It's the kind of happiness we see that bothers me.

2014/09/10
This episode is all about false reassurance. Jae-yeol takes minor recovery in his condition as justification for early release with...well, not bad consequences exactly. There's no significant disaster this episode that forces another serious reevaluation. It's more a matter of Jae-yeol just taking a hard look at himself and discovering the situation is exactly as dire as the doctors say. Everything is meticulously scripted and shot to lead to this shining moment of self-discovery. It's a huge building moment of humility for him. Remember that this is the same Jae-yeol who has an unimpeachable reputation as a dreamboat. His aggressive borderline illegal behavior has, to date, only ever gotten him good things in regards to his relationship with Hae-soo,...More

2014/09/04
Provided you saw the preview last episode, it's pretty easy to guess every major storyline event that happens this episode. Consequently, up until Jae-yeol finally gets committed, the proceedings are pretty uninspiring, and at their worst even invoke shades of the sociopathy that has defined the drama up until this point. Jae-yeol may not be consciously dangerous, but he's definitely a threat to himself and others and it's easy to feel sorry for the passerby minding their own business who got stuck into this, even if we never see them,...More
[HanCinema's Drama Review] "It's Okay, That's Love" Episode 13
2014/09/03
Pretty much the entirity of this episode is devoted to the seriousness of Jae-yeol's mental condition, and I have to admit I was actually fairly surprised at how tastefully this was handled. So far the drama's exploration of psychiatric conditions has been pretty superficial. I guess that since Jae-yeol's a main character, though, there's a sort of gravity to what he's experiencing that for once requires everyone to actually act like a serious professional and calmly discuss the best way of getting him treatment. Hae-soo undergoes a lot of conflict here, since it quickly becomes obvious that she will have to betray Jae-yeol's trust in the short term in order to get him long term treatment,...More

[HanCinema's Drama Review] "It's Okay, That's Love" Episode 12
2014/08/28
Jae-yeol and Hae-soo still spend a disproportionate amount of energy discussing marriage- but note the change in context. This isn't an abstraction. They aren't talking about this on a radio show like this was some kind of expert discussion. These are personal conversations in a casual atmosphere that deal with their situation on an individual level. There's actual genuine rapport here that's surprisingly effective. It's a good demonstration of how "It's Okay, That's Love" is getting at least some of the genre fundamentals down correctly,...More

Jin Kyung claimed that Jo In-sung's mental disorder was at its worst. On the twelfth episode of the SBS drama "It's Okay, That's Love", Jo Dong-min (Sung Dong-il) worried about Jang Jae-yeol's (Jo In-sung) mental disorder and decided to tell his wife Lee Yeong-jin (Jin Kyung) about it,...More

[HanCinema's Drama Review] "It's Okay, That's Love" Episode 10
2014/08/21
We get into more of Jae-yeol's tragic past in this episode, as the murder is shown in almost complete detail, at least from Jae-beom's perspective. But was it a murder? The more I think about it the less sense the whole situation makes. Their father was a known abuser. This can be corroborated, making it trivially easy for any half decent lawyer to make a claim of self defense. And even if Jae-beom refused to make that defense by insisting he didn't do anything, at the very least it would be a mitigating factor in sentencing. Add that in to Jae-beom being a minor and the lenient nature of the Korean criminal justice system in general... Look, what I'm getting at here is that this entire portion of the plot only makes sense from a screenwriting perspective. Trying to apply any lateral logic to the situation at all just serves to demonstrate how little sense any of it makes,...More

2014/08/20
The Jae-yeol / Hae-soo loveline moves into a strong position of security here. The Okinawa trip concludes, and our leads return to Korea with a clear sense of mutual respect and understanding. For the most part this is just the natural progression of the sequence of events from the last episode. It's just a matter of a few serious chats, an airing out of various psychological issues, and there it is- intimacy. There is not, at this point, anything that could be considered a serious emotional obstacle to the relationship. All of that was mainly on Hae-soo's end anyway,...More

2014/08/14
This episode is mostly just a fun date, so there's not a whole lot of objectionable material. It really does do wonders for the Jae-yeol / Hae-soo romance to just have them away from other people for a change. Without any targets to provoke for the most part these two are able to behave like sensible human beings who are more focused on one another's needs and happiness than in petty oneupsmanship,...More

On the seventh episode of the SBS drama "It's Okay, That's Love", Jang Jae-yeol (Jo In-sung) and Ji Hae-soo (Gong Hyo-jin) officially started dating. Jang Jae-yeol was going out to meet Ji Hae-soo after she agreed to be his girlfriend, but was attacked by his brother Jang Jae-beom (Yang Ik-june). Jang Jae-yeol was beat up badly by Jang Jae-beom, but still stood by his side and told Ji Hae-soo everything. She hugged him without a word and they became a couple,...More

In the opening of this episode, in the aftermath of a mental patient's escaping due entirely to the fault of Dong-min, Hae-soo completely fails to notice that a man is being beaten by a baseball bat and dragged away right in front of her. Jae-yeol, for his part, rather than get help, manages to escalate the fight in such a way that it completely destroys a nearby unrelated private space. The situation is a terrifying one- not from the perspective of the drama, but rather from the onlookers,...More

Which is a very good phase to get into, since I, at least, needed time apart from the antics of these two.

Obviously it would be better if both of them would act like that, but I'll take what I can get.

2014/07/31
The cliffhanger of the last episode was mildly creepy. The opening of this episode continues in that direction, quickly becoming really creepy. I genuinely have no idea how to view Jae-yeol's actions here. Are these gestures supposed to be romantic? Then why do they feel so vaguely threatening? I might be able to accept this kind of playfulness from long separated lovers but these two quite literally met each other only a few episodes ago. I'm surprised Hae-soo puts up with it, considering how she never puts up with anything else,...More

The drama continues to struggle against its main obstacle- the general unlikability of the main characters. I get that their antics are supposed to be cute, but most of the time I just end up thinking that these are not people I would ever want to be roommates with. Hae-soo takes vicious snipes and Jae-yeol chooses to escalate them. Living with one of them would be difficult enough- both at the same time is just plain worrisome,...More
[HanCinema's Drama Review] "Gabdong - The Serial Killer"
2014/07/26
There is a definite lack of variety in the topics Korean drama explores. There is also the issue of conforming, when some series attempt to break the mold only to be smacked back into it. While 'Gabdong - The Serial Killer' is not a perfect drama or one of the most exciting ones out there, it is to the creators' credit that they maintain its focus and tone throughout, resulting in a not brilliant, but good and most welcome attempt to be different and do it right. 'Gabdong - The Serial Killer' tells the story of a serial murder case the statute of limitations for which has expired. Ha Moo-yeom's (Yoon Sang-hyun) father was a suspect for the murders and after his death, Moo-yeom became obsessed with clearing his father's name. Along with his team and their new chief, Yang Cheol-gon (Sung Dong-il), who was convinced Moo-yeom's father was the murderer, they are trying to stop a new series of murders and find the killer, but also possibly the original Gap Dong,...More

When SBS revealed the theme of the follow-up drama to "You're Surrounded", I'll admit that I was skeptical. A romantic comedy centering around psychiatric patients? Could this type of drama be done in a tasteful way? Well, add a superstar cast - Gong Hyo-jin, Jo In-sung, Lee Kwang-soo, Sung Dong-il - and a well-written script and it seems like this show might be a smash hit for SBS. The director himself said that the drama's underlying message would be one of tolerance and breaking social prejudice and so far he is living up to his promise,...More

We get a prison, a giant massive party, what looks like the set for some kind of commercial, a hospital, and finally, a television variety show, all of this before the drama's even had much of a chance to explain what's actually going on. It's not literally a commercial, by the way. That was just an assumption I made based on how sexily that particular scene was shot,...More

Some of the historical films to look out for in 2014 include: "KUNDO : Age of the Rampant", "A Touch of Zen", "Pirates", "The Huntresses", and "Battle Of Myeongryang"; but before we usher in these new historical yarns, here's a quick look at the five highest grossing Korean period films of all-time that this year's entries will hope to challenge,...More

[HanCinema's Drama Review] "Answer Me 1994" Episode 21 Final
2013/12/28
The camera deliberately tantalizes us this episode. It constantly feels like we're just going to be one misstep away from Na-jeong's husband being suddenly and unexpectedly revealed, but no, those little pitter patters are just the inevitable outcropping of having nonprofessional friends videotape a wedding. If nothing else, "Answer Me 1994" certainly ends the same way it started out- mocking the viewer and getting away with it because comedy. For what it's worth, the question is resolved with a fair amount of time to go before the final true ending, and the episode hits the same hard notes it did with the apparent break-ups we had last time,...More
[HanCinema's Drama Review] "Answer Me 1994" Episode 20
2013/12/27
Romantic separation is the byword this time around, as the relationship between Na-jeong and Rubbish is (apparently) fully severed. The scene where this gets established carries a lot of emotional punch. As we saw earlier, they never really technically broke up. It was just that their sustained interest couldn't survive Na-jeong spending extended time working overseas. They're still both clearly heavily emotionally invested in each other, but once again, they've pretty much moved on. Something "Answer Me 1994" has done very well is using the setting of the nineties, and the limited technology therein, to establish limitations,...More

[HanCinema's Drama Review] "Answer Me 1994" Episode 17
2013/12/14
Binggrae's adventures with friends unrelated to the main cast continue. I think it's pretty clear at this point that his wallflower-like appearance in the drama isn't just an excuse of the script not having much for him to do. This is the essential part of his personality that seems to follow him everywhere. It's not the most exciting storyline, granted, but the way his plotline finally resolves is just plain adorable, and leaves a nice warm fuzzy feeling. We're in more ambiguous territory with Na-jeong and Rubbish, whose more madcap adventures hit another apex in a bizarre flashback,...More

2013/12/13
We really don't get to do much with Binggrae. Of the four potential suitors, the odds that he's Na-jeong's husband are by the far the most distant. So there's typically not a whole for him to actually do. "Answer Me 1994" appears to acknowledge that this episode, giving us a storyline centered almost entirely around Binggrae where he doesn't he really do anything. His general lack of character development in itself appears to be the narrative focus. The social event where he spends most of his time here bears a striking similarity to those earlier episodes where everybody has just got in from the country and wasn't really sure what to do yet,...More

2013/12/07
While last episode focused on the fuzzy, happy parts of the new relationship between Na-jeong and Rubbish, this one begins to take a more pragmatic view by showing us what their day-to-day life is in the household. I was rather curious why Na-jeong's parents didn't show up in the last episode, and the reason for that is made clear here very quickly. They have no idea that Na-jeong and Rubbish are seeing each other in a romantic light now. Or at least, they're pretending that they don't,...More

2013/12/06
There's a great nineties aesthetic going on throughout this episode. "Answer Me 1994", like almost any drama produced today, is ultimately a product of popular current-day writing tropes and situations. In this episode, that scenario is conversations that are both emotionally stunted and emotionally expressive, as participants try to express themselves as much as they can without risking offending the other person. The nineties music selection here is amazingly well-suited to these scenes, communicating a particular sadness and intimacy that just doesn't seem to go far enough. Incidentally, there's another giant time jump this episode. At this rate we'll almost certainly get a cameo from the drama's predecessor. At first this might seem to be a cheat- Na-jeong and Rubbish are finally couple, and we're skipping over all of that just to watch a relationship that's several months in? But the narrative reasons for this are sound,...More

The despair that accompanied the end of the last episode is pretty much over and done with as the drama returns back into more traditional territory. This time around the narrative structure is unusually cohesive, as a mystery is prompted at the beginning of the episode concerning Na-jeong's wedding, and a somewhat unusual event that took place there which seems inexplicable to a random outside observer. Music is involved. And so it is with the first setpiece, a trip to the music room,...More

2013/11/29
Part of the advantage of "Answer Me 1994" taking place over such a long period of time (we are, at this point, definitively in 1995) is that the romantic plotting gets a lot more room to breathe. Since there's no pressure to fully resolve all the lovelines within a few months, we often get to see extended reflective scenes where characters just sort of realize that even after several months not a whole lot has really happened. This episode contrasts this by making it quite clear that in this much time, several relevant things have happened,...More

The theme of this episode is unrequited love. For the most part this is a self-conscious focus taken by the characters. We now have two couples who are pretty clearly in requited love now, but spending too time on them is just kind of boring. Who wants to look at happy people when it's so much more fun to just stir about sullenly in the depths of misery? Hae-tae gets a focused personal plot for once, although it's not really a love plot so much as sheer lust,...More

This episode goes for a change of scenery and a rather extreme time-skip- I know I've been complaining about how the drama seemed stuck in summertime but I didn't think it would go this far. Although it's an appropriate enough step to take- if anything has been made clear it's that our various main characters are really bad at confessing their feelings of love, so it's understandable that it takes a momentous event to actually make them step up their game. Even if it's just a holiday. Yes, that's right- we finally get to love confessions and I have to admit, they were well worth the wait,...More

I guess it's too late for Yoon-jin to be the main character. That's a little disappointing- I love it every time she shows up onscreen simply because Yoon-jin is such a catalyst for action. She doesn't just sit around and wait for stuff to happen- she forcefully takes the steps necessary to insure that things go her way. Or maybe that's just my own preference for slapstick- given that we already know who her husband is going to be, it's not like there's much more she can do in the actual plot. On that front, our main characters spend the better part of this episode preoccupied with one of those magic image books. I never could figure out how those were supposed to work,...More

It's still summertime. Not even a specific month either, just summertime in general, just like the last few episodes. The drama is treading over the same ground and I must confess it's getting a little tiring. There are only so many episodes about nothing that can be produced before the reader finally starts to wonder, hey, is anything actually going to happen or is it just going to be an endless summer? For what it's worth, what little plot there is this time around is fairly interesting,...More

Summer continues in 1994 as characters continue to find ways to beat the heat. I'm not an expert, but I'm going to guess that air conditioning was not yet a universal thing during this time in South Korea, given the schemes characters resort to in order to stay cool. A heat wave can bring about that kind of madness- that a person is willing to look completely ridiculous just as long as they feel well-aerated. Well, except for Yoon-jin anyway. She never cared about appearances in the first place,...More

He's the kind of dad who demands the very best from his surrogate sons because he knows they can deliver.

This episode has a lot of focus on Yoon-jin. Do-hee puts a fairly convincing spin as the girl who has no nice side, no friends, and for the most part is perfectly fine with having all her social interactions be basically hostile ones. Who here has met a person like that in real life, particularly during university? Do you think that person had a secret fuzzy personality underneath? No, of course not. Why would you? Her character as a whole really emphasizes a lot of how this episode works, as get back to more general comedy. The opening scene is an extremely large meal,...More

The drama continues moving in the largely emotional territory that predominated the last episode. This time, rather than dealing with immediate attachments- the issue is loss. Don't worry- nobody dies or anything this time around. It's mostly just reflection on events in the backstory. Also making an appearance is a subplot involving a night club that's not particularly impressive. For some reason, I assumed when the nightclub first appeared that we were actually going to get to see what was inside it,...More

There are two essential jokes this episode. One is the story of a bunch of kids on the cusp of their twenties engaging in an elaborate drinking game. Where the last one wins...respect, I guess. Second, another set of characters is driving in a car. Quite a bit of a luxury to people from rural districts who are probably old enough to remember a time when people still used horse-drawn carriages. But this inevitably runs into its own pitfalls, particularly in the untrusting world of modern-day Seoul. The humor in these plotlines is passable. They're not terrible jokes, but this episode by and large lacks the creative dazzle of the gags in the first two episodes,...More

2013/01/12
Film: "The Grand Heist"" 바람과 함께 사라지다 (Ba-lam-gwa Ham-gge Sa-ra-ji-da) Director: Kim Joo-ho Stars: Cha Tae-hyun, Oh Ji-ho, Min Hyo-rin & Lee Chae-young Review Score: 4 / 5 Kim Joo-ho's first major feature "The Grand Heist" came into the charts last year when "The Thieves" had just hit its stride. Despite coming up against the likes Choi Dong-hoon's record-breaking hit, along with a few other money-makers both foreign and domestic, the film pulled together 4,909,937 admissions without ever being number one. That's a tally worthy of forth place in the list of highest grossing Korea films of 2012. A list led by "The Thieves" (12,983,182), followed by "Masquerade" (12,319,390), and that places Kim's heist flick almost two million behind "A Werewolf Boy" (6,654,390). The film is set during Korea's favoured Chosun period, and here the royal family have control over the production and distribution of ice. In Kim's telling ice becomes a highly sought-after commodity that represents the indulgence and decadence of the rich and powerful, as well as the hopes and needs of the weak and in need. Jo Myung-soo, a royal nobleman played by Nam Kyung-eup, decides to put in motion plans that would give him exclusive rights and power of the ice trade. However, to do this he needs to take care of the resourceful and reckless Deok-moo (Cha Tae-hyun), and his dutiful father, as well Dong-soo (Oh Ji-ho), a skilled and incorruptible public office who watches over the ice warehouse and its workers,...More
