Pinóquio (2014)

Decente

Com certeza sou minoria por aqui, mas mesmo assim vou expressar minha opnião. Esse drama tinha muito pontecial e foi um ótimo drama até certo ponto, o enredo é interessante te faz ficar interessado rapidamente, o elenco é estelar então você sabe que terá boas atuações, porém esse hype dura pouco tempo e o drama depois do episódio 11 vai ficando arrastado e previsivel.
Falando em arrastado ,o drama poderia ter menos episódios , 16 estaria ótimo , tudo já estava praticamente esclarecido no episódio 10 o resto foi só esticamento da história.

A protagonista feminina deixou a desejar, era para parecer forte e determinada mas não me convenceu. Era apenas a inocente menina bonita , sensivel e em apuros e que sempre presisava do seu principe para salva-la quando estava em apuros,
Tenho que ressaltar que eu adorei vovô e o ahjussi eles eram fofos adorava quando eles estavam em cena principalmente o vovô.

Outro ponto que não me convenceu foi o romance , os protagonistas não tinham quimica, era forçado, era melhor nem ter, para que forçar romance, afinal eram como familía , o melhor para ele era ter um amor fraternal no máximo eu achei desnecessário e bem estranho esse romance.

Em fim é um drama decente não me arrependo de ter assistido mas com certeza não irei reassistir.

I'm definitely in the minority here, but I'll express my opinion anyway. This drama had a lot of potential and was a great drama up to a point, the plot is interesting makes you interested quickly, the cast is stellar so you know you will get good performances, however this hype lasts a short time and the drama after episode 11 goes getting drawn out and predictable.
Speaking of drag, the drama could have fewer episodes, 16 would be great, everything was practically cleared up in episode 10, the rest was just stretching the story.

The female protagonist left something to be desired, it was supposed to look strong and determined but it didn't convince me. She was just the innocent, beautiful, sensitive girl in trouble who always needed her prince to save her when she was in trouble,

Another point that didn't convince me was the romance, the protagonists didn't have chemistry, it was forced, it was better not to have it, why force romance, after all they were like family, the best thing for him was to have a maximum of brotherly love I found it unnecessary and fine this novel is strange.

In the end, it's a decent drama, I don't regret having watched it but I certainly won't rewatch it.

Pinocchio on the surface is about a bunch of reporters who learn what reporting is truly all about. Or at least, that's what I was expecting until I heard Lee Jong Suk joined the cast. I swear nobody has a knack for good roles the way he does. He just knows how to pick an amazing role and make it even more amazing with his acting skills. And that's what this drama was. Absolutely AMAZING. Every episode took me deeper and deeper into their story and by the time I was done, I was crying like a wild horse (if wild horses cry). Every character, every situation and every decision (made by Dal Po) either turned me into a huge of puddle of emotional mess or brought a huge, shiny grin on my face. Some stuff got me slapping my computer screen so hard (I'll make it up to you babe). There were no in-betweens. Also there were no dull moments.

Coming to characters. Dal Po is amazing. And not just your everyday amazing but amazing amazing. While I was watching I can't even count the number of times I would've made a choice completely different from him. He was so brave and just so right. The kind of path he took, there was no assurance that he would be able to avenge his family at all and as we moved further into the story, we realize that if he hadn't made the choices that he did, he wouldn't even have been able to catch the right culprit. As for Park Shin Hye, I've really only liked her in You're Beautiful. Her characters in Heirs and Flower Boy Next Door were extremely disappointing. But this is her best portrayal. I loved Choi In Ha and her blunt attitude (not that she had a choice considering the Pinocchio Syndrome). I think I'll have a hard time remembering it's not a real syndrome.

The supporting cast was amazing, especially Yoon Yoo Rae. Her little love-story towards the end was really cute (I'm trying really hard not to give spoilers here, but I'm so excited I can barely contain it, lol). In Ha's mom, her dad, her grandpa, everyone was great. Both the Caps and OMG the whole staff at YGN. I absolutely loved them. Especially the dude with the creepy grin and the hairband. He was awesome! Ahn Chan Soo was awesome. Kim Hae Sook is one of my favorite actors when it comes to moms and other older roles and the parts she plays always have something great to offer. Same happened here. Her character started out as a sweet and overly-protective mom which reminded me of her roles in Marriage Not Dating and I Hear Your Voice but it grew into so much more. Last (but most definitely not the least) Ki Jae Myung was mesmerizing. You know what he does is wrong, yet all you feel for him is sympathy and make excuses for him, because the emotional turmoil he goes through is simply palpable. He suffered through years of pain and guilt and he suffered all by himself. It was beautiful, the way his character was shaped.

The music is good, though not extremely good. It's melodious, relaxing and not too dramatic. Every Single Day has composed some nice ones for the OST.

Comparisons to I Hear Your voice are inevitable since the lead actor along with supporting cast and the writer-director were same for both dramas. And there is an essence of IHYV here in this drama, which makes it just as great. But nothing is repetitive and Pinocchio easily holds it's own. I would recommend it to everyone now that all the episodes are out and you don't have to live in agony waiting for new episodes.
