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. The boundary between ground-wave, cable networks and general service channels has been drastically torn down, and a full-fledged 'content war' has now begun. tvN, OCN and jTBC have challenged the ground-wave with their strong new 2020 lineup,...More

Comparison of American Remakes, "Entourage" and "The Good Wife"
2019/07/09, Source
Japanese, American and even English dramas are being remade in Korea. However, as cultural differences are evident, failure to reduce the gap will cause them to be completely shunned. "Entourage" was one of the first American dramas to be remade. It started off with a viewing percentage of 2.5%, then 1%, and finally 0%. The story of Yeong-bin, a rising star, his management director who went all-in on him, and Yeong-bin's friends who depended their life on the top star was portrayed by Cho Jin-woong, Seo Kang-joon and other big stars, but the drama failed miserably, even in terms of popularity,...More

[HanCinema's Film Review] "The Swindlers"
2017/12/01
In an odd twist for the wacky charming con artist genre of films, the opening scene of "The Swindlers" features a disturbingly large assortment of people thrown into suicidal despair as a result of a massive fraud. Ji-seong (played by Hyun Bin) is obliquely related to the scam, but most of the movie is not from his perspective. That role falls to Prosecutor Hee-soo (played by Yoo Ji-tae) who operates his own gang of con artists, and also has a connection to the huge embezzlement case,...More

[Funcurve Review] "Healer"
2016/01/23
Kill or Cure It's hard to define "Healer" as it's got a little bit of everything: super spy, crime, drama, romance, and family. It weaves a lot of concepts together to form one well-written, well-executed, thrilling, and emotional fusion drama. The main story is a complex one, wrapped layers deep waiting for us to peel back. But at a high level, "Healer" is about a skilled "night courier" who steals items for clients in return for money and how his life completely changed with a strange job from a famous reporter requesting him to find a girl. Little did Healer or the audience realize how much their fates have been intertwined and that they would eventually work together to uncover important mysteries that not only involve everyone around them, but also explain their roots,...More
