“Police officers work in groups of two. I shouldn’t get separated from my partner. That’s why I should’ve been there. I should’ve been hit along with her.” 💔

man that one scene in “cinderella’s stepsister” where moon geunyoung is running away and she turns to look behind her as the pencil falls out from her hair is so iconic that now and then it still pops up in my head

Mary Stayed Out All Night. 7

Story: 6

Acting: 10

Chemistry: 10

Comparable to: Bel Ami (kdrama) ; Trot Lovers (kdrama) Something About 1% (kdrama)

It’s an oldie, a humdinger of an oldie too. It’s one of those batsh*it crazy ones, where everyone is dialed up to hundred on melodramatic acid, but it’s so fun to watch. Of coarse you can’t take anything seriously, the storyline is your basic love triangle/marriage contract one. Both main leads have wonderful chemistry together. It does get awfully frustrating though in the middle half going back in forth in the love triangle. The music in this is beautiful I do have to say. It’s a major plus. Love love the ost. I did have a fun time watching this one. Yes there is glaring problems with it and yes it’s hella cliche, but it’s enjoyable especially if you fast forward through some scenes that do get draggy.

felt like rewatching the first korean movie I ever saw - my little bride (2004, dir. kim hojoon)

man, back in those days kdramas and movies were hard to get your hands on. there were no official sources, fansubs were always a crapshoot, and if I wanted to own something i’d have to wait for a china trip to get a physical copy. I remember coming across this dvd in a random video store in my dinky little hometown and being elated.

the plot is pretty simple - arranged marriage, hijinks ensue. one thing that I appreciated on rewatching though is how the gender roles are reversed in the development of their relationship - bo eun is the one who does whatever she wants and sangmin quietly looks out for her and plays the self sacrificing spouse role.

man, i’m obsessed with moon geun young. I was already a fan from autumn in my heart (THE og classic kdrama❤️), and she freaking owned this movie. she’s just so good. she has so much range, and she nails it every time. her knack for physical comedy is insane, she portrays the cheeky teenage girl character so well. all her cute little mannerisms in this are super naturalistic and charming. I miss her doing comedy, I really do.

kim rae won also gets to work his comedy chops here, and acquits himself admirably. I have no idea what he’s up to now, but I remember when he was one of the Hot New Things. this made me feel super old - the realization that my contemporaries are part of the previous generation of pop culture now🥲

also wow shin se kyung is stunning in this. they put a little too much makeup on her for my taste, but man she’s just so pretty. no surprise she went on to become a leading lady.

watching this sent me on a massive nostalgia trip. the 2000s was when the hallyu wave was really starting to peak, and so many mainstays of k-ent were formed during this era. the music, fashion, actors, story tropes, all of it reminded me of how exciting it was to be a k-ent fan at the time. the internet made everything accessible to the west, and I remember going on the d-addicts forums (now there’s a name you haven’t heard in a while!) every day to gush about the popular new shows. veteran actors like hyun bin, song hye kyo, song seung heon etc were just getting their breakout roles. looking back, it’s insane how far we’ve come and how much k-ent has proliferated. I appreciate the ability to just pick up my tv remote and netflix any new kdrama, but i’ll always have fond memories of those early years.

Haunting and the Aftermath of Trauma: A Tale of Two Sisters (2003, dir. Kim Jee-woon)

this has been on my watch list so long, i'm glad i finally got to see it!

while there were some issues with the sound dynamic & scene pacing (mainly that the film was extremely quiet except when there were scare sound cues that were just way too loud; and that some scenes had a very odd way of cutting between action and reaction, leaving a little too much air in-between), i overall had a really good time. it's engaging to try and unravel the mystery of what's going on, and while that definitely wasn't exactly hard to do, it still gives you good pay-off when you get to the conclusion.

im soo-jung is just as magnetic to watch here as she was a year later in my personal favorite i'm a cyborg, but that's ok, and yum jung-ah is fantastically unsettling. their dynamic especially really solidifies the creepy, strained atmosphere of the film, and they play off each other perfectly.

the lighting and photography were very intriguing, especially the purple tint on many of the scenes, and the long quiet shots, which were made even more impactful by the extremely minimal soundtrack.

not all scare effects landed, but i was particularly impressed by the very slow build-up to the scare by the sink. i'm not a jumpscare fan in general, but this one felt really earned and appropriate as a storytelling device.

there was a slight effort to over-explain towards the end, but i think it was resolved quite elegantly. i think the narrative greatly benefited from not trying to diagnose su-mi or explain away all of her experience as symptoms of a specific mental illness. hauntings in stories are the aftermath of extreme pain, as are post-traumatic disorders in psychiatry, and in that way i think it can often be very impactful to let the two intersect. a haunting is trauma. the house is the mind. you wish to forget it all, but you can't.

DRAMA REVIEW | MOVING (2023)

In a time when we are suffering from an over-saturation of content and less than mediocre stories, particularly related to people with superpowers, South Korea has released MOVING and proved there's still hope for the genre.

Like its tittle the story is in constant move, not only pushing forward but going back to different timelines to give us context o our main characters and how the things happening in present time are a direct consequence to the past. Technically, MOVING is perfect. One of the strongest points is definitely the editing and this can be seen in the way the story jumps from one year to another but you never lose track of what's happening nor leaves you confused. There are gaps to fill but with other episodes that will give you answers. The score complements the actions and emotions of the characters to perfection.

The performances are top notch and it's not surprise considering this drama is stacked. If you have been watching korean dramas or films for a while, you will recognize even the most random character or one-episode-cameo it's performed by an award winning actor or actress. These people have a reputation for a reason and they deliver in every scene, with a look, a touch, a smile or a punch that will push you through a wall. For some characters in the drama literally speaking.

Zo In Sung hasn't starred in a drama since Dear My Friends (2016) and I am so glad this is his return to the tv format. In MOVING he delivered a nuance, charming and badass performance that in the hands of another would have fell flat. His character's entire existence it's what pushes most of the story forward: a person used as a weapon to kill but all he ever wanted was to live. The big mystery of the drama it's to find out what was his fate after he got separated from those he loves.

Ryoo Seung Ryong remains one of the most compelling actors of his generation, giving us the incredible story of a good man lost in life until he found his purpose and redemption. His storyline, full of gore and violence, was actually a tender love story about how far a man will go to protect his family. Marvelous.

Han Hyo Joo's character could have easily fallen into the Smurfette principle but no. She's an equal to the men who love her and those that want to kill her, with a very strong motivation to keep herself on the top of the game. This character's loneliness comes through every scene she's in, bottling everything up in order to be strong for her family but you can tell she's waiting for a chance to be free and, most importantly, for her son to be able to live freely.

Ko Yoon Jung, Lee Jeong Ha and Kim Do Hoon are really promising actors, particularly considering they hold their own while performance with so many household names. I think Kim Do Hoon and Kim Sun Kyun probably gave one of the most heartbreaking yet beautiful stories in the drama.

Like I mentioned before every single actor in this drama brought their A+ game face but I would be doing a disservice if I didn't mention Kim Hee Won, Cha Tae Hyun, Ryoo Seung Bum, Park Hee Soon, Yang Dong Geun, Jo Bok Rae, Park Kwang Jae, Kim Joong He and, of course, Kwak Sun Young. She in particular was SPECTACULAR.

None of these characters are one-dimensional, they are not defined by the label society wants to put on them. They are all joined together by the experiences, hardships, love, motivations and ambitions they share. At the end of the day, related or not by blood, they are a family. Even the so-called enemies.

MOVING it's absolutely worthy of the hype that surrounds it through all social media and news outlets putting in the category of one of 2023 best tv shows. I only regret I didn't have the time to watch it sooner so I could have add it to mine.
