Another lofty queen

The drama has a positive and negative side:
The positive side is that if you watch it, you will enjoy its crazy events, political conspiracies, power struggles, the strength of the acting of the heroes and secondary characters, and the high-quality directing and cinematography. The work resembles a full drama consisting of 20 episodes, although it consists of only 8 episodes, thanks to the fast pace of the story.. But The work is full of disgusting nudity and sex scenes in all episodes, so the drama is rated +21
I saw mixed reactions to the nudity and sex scenes, and in fact this is normal in many extreme historical shows, especially since the work is broadcast on a digital platform and not a TV channel to be censored on certain scenes, in addition to the fact that they put a 21 rating as a warning. The drama is a dark, violent and bloody Saijok type drama, and this is not suitable for those who watch cute or comedic dramas. Unfortunately, expect this type of scene in any drama shown on networks such as NETFLIX, DISNEY+, Coupang Play and TVING..

Game over... Best short drama during the first three weeks of 2024

If you go to this drama thinking that it will be like other death game series, such as Squid Game and Night Has Come, then you are wrong, and you will not find what you expect if you are a fan of this genre. However, this show will attract you because it stays in the genre of games with many genres mixed together in a perfect way, it is a mixture of school drama that sharpens its plot with bullying scenes intersected in the style of a drama (2019's Class of Lies) and follows the atmosphere and direction of 2023 Bitch X Rich and Weak. Hero Class 2022.
But the basic premise of this game is out of the ordinary and does not place itself in those dramatic circles because of its depth, and each episode contains a new discovery and battles of intelligence provoked by some games for social survival that quickly escalate into an intense psychological war.

It is a 10-hour lesson for all bullies and bystanders that looks at the hierarchy of societies in a school setting as a microcosm, noting in this triangle that exists in all societies that it is the provocation of the upper classes that creates class conflict, and the existence of bullying between classes is nothing but a reflection of slavery.
I also appreciate the way they cast a ray of hope. Not only is it a dark or painful story, but its poignancy is softened as camaraderie blossoms between the girls, meaning “friendships can be made that transcend the boundaries of class and status.”

Aside from the content, the best thing about this drama is the cast. Every actress was amazing and every character made it exciting and unpredictable. Although there are many, each one contributes to advancing the plot and raising the level of tension by depicting the nature of the relationships between them. It keeps viewers guessing not only how the game will be destroyed but also the nature, background and behavior of each one.
The music is also one of the drama's best points and the OST in particular is great, making every moment intense as if sending the message, "A dangerous battle of wits will take place."
Summary of the statement...
The drama (Pyramid Game) is wonderful and entertaining from beginning to end. It was a tightly directed story whose facts and characters were unpredictable and ended satisfactorily. It was also characterized by an ideal crew and excellent acting with a perfect rhythm.
Therefore, as a high-level production, it succeeded in arousing global interest
As the only Korean content among the selections of the Series Mania 2024 festival, which is the largest event in Europe dedicated to TV series to recognize the best works.
Therefore, add the pyramid game to your list, but do not play it in your social life. Rather, try to break it whenever you find yourself trapped in such a situation, because what is certain is that this hierarchy will remain in place as long as human society continues, and this is relatively what the conclusion represents.

To tell you the truth, the moment I saw you for the first time I knew I would fall in love with you

A drama full of emotion. I did not watch the Japanese version, but I really liked the story, the actors’ performances, and the music was calm
There was a sense of sadness in the series. I felt sad in most of the scenes💔
, how misunderstanding destroys the relationship and that love requires courage.....

16 episodes. I lived the atmosphere of Cha Jin and Mo Eun’s relationship. I enjoyed the story and the narration was touching. At the beginning, we lived the atmosphere of the beginnings like any relationship, and how Mo Eun is passionate about her love and that Cha Jin loves her, but he was not able to convey his feelings to Mo Eun because he had a previous painful love story. Also, after his ex-girlfriend returned, he had an impact on their relationship. I felt the same way Mo Eun felt when she felt jealous of Song seo
Also during the series there is a one-sided and hidden love between Gohan and Mo Eun, but he was not brave to tell her his love. She should have realized that. She is always grateful to him for always being by her side, but she did not feel his love. I really feel sorry for Gohan.
also The character Mo Dam, Mo Eun's brother, and her friend Ji Yoo, had a cute relationship and scenes that added fun to the series.
Also, Ki Hyun's character was warm and their friendship was unconditional. The series is really enjoyable and worth watching..💜

Worst Evil

The first three episodes of The Worst of Evil series,
The series does not depict the life of the Korean mafia, but rather it exposes you to the nighttime street gangs in Gangnam Province, which work in protecting nightclubs, restaurants, and stores as a form of camouflage for the major crime of “drug smuggling.”
Gang life follows a hierarchy. The leader controls all the districts, followed by the leaders of those districts. One of them is the leader of “Gangnam,” which is the Villain character played by Wi Ha Joon, and so on, we arrive at the newcomer with the lowest rank, which is Ji Chang Wook, who plays the role of an undercover policeman within the gang. .
I was hoping that the level of gangs in Korea would rise to the point where it could be defined as the mafia, similar to the “Italian” and “Russian” and even Japanese mafia..but Korean drama continues to be reserved about addressing this field, unlike cinema..
The Worst of Evil series did not bring anything new to this entity, but I liked its very important detail, which is the recruitment of freshmen from secondary schools. I liked it because it is a real phenomenon that was very widespread between the eighties and nineties of the last century in the continent of Asia in general, and perhaps it was the most prominent. In the state of Japan in an attempt to revive the Yakuza organization after its intellectual and ideological death.
What is most important in the detail of secondary schools is that it reminds us a little of the atmosphere of the mafia, which is formed on the foundations and principles of loyalty, appreciation and respect emanating from the “family”. There are no strangers in this organization, but rather it is a unified cohesion, and for this reason the assignment is carried out from the secondary school where the new recruits are in communication. They are connected to their new world, and they already carry intellectual imprints without being taught that.
Here it is quite natural for the matter to be limited to a gang battle rather than a mafia war. Up to this point, of course, the matter could develop.
Building the character of the gang leader, from a DJ who lives a quiet life to the leader of a dangerous criminal organization, was rather good without mentioning the details of the leader’s background. Rather, the pace was fast as an arrow from the starting point up to the level that the leader reached and will remain at until he meets the main character and the main plot begins to move. .
The method of infiltration into the "Gangnam" gang by the policeman is considered the best glimpse in these episodes. It is a good method in terms of wording and does not lead viewers into confusion. There are great details that the policeman went through in order to reach this complex position.
The style of action and the depiction of gang battles was balanced, or we can say that it was not impressive. We cannot say that it was brutal or we could also say that it was censored. It was a “normal” style of action that carried the usual Korean touch in action series, with the addition of some blood and weapons. Al-Bayda, especially some of the dead, so that we, as viewers, accept the idea of ​​the criminal organization and what it could lead to in order to achieve its highest goals, the most prominent of which is the acquisition and control of the provinces.
As for the character of the detective, the wife of the undercover policeman, she is one of the secondary characters on which a course of events that enhances the main plot will be built. At least in this series, a female character will be inserted, but “we have a convincing reason for that.”
His acting performance is very special. Ji Chang Wook finally abandoned his gentle and friendly features and his light series, which of course failed. Not because he cannot act, but because they are lower than normal series in terms of quality. Finally, the spirit of the actor that was lost for about seven years has returned. He is a professional. Entirely in the action categories, he still carries the same enthusiasm and passion for such types of drama, and most importantly, he has improved his performance and fitness. People like Ji Chang Wook cannot judge their acting performance, because he gives you a very wonderful impression in a series like this. Then you see another person performing poorly in light dramatic works, and for this reason we say that good choice of work is one of the most important factors for the success of actors.
Then we talk about the all-around actor, Wi Ha Joon. Honestly, he is a very amazing actor!
Wei Hajun cannot rise to be a mafia leader. Such complex characters are easy to emulate for South Korean movie tycoons. It will be a long journey for him to reach that point.
But the actor gives you the impression of conviction when you watch him perform any character! He actually played the character of the "policeman", "the psychopath", the "lover", even though he played the role of a fictional character and described him as a gang leader. He is an actor who always diversifies his work and roles and gives you a realistic personality and depth. He is a very diligent character. Perhaps the most prominent thing that he worked hard at in this series is the pitch of voice and the method of delivery, and the actor, frankly, has a face and features that any character can be based on, whether it is Prota or Anti.
The soundtrack is almost non-existent, but some of the instrumentals are quite good.
The most important thing we will talk about about this series is the “story” itself. Did it bring a new The Worst of Evil? The answer: No. Even the director himself is aware of this. It is an idea that was circulated by all authors in the world after the success of the movie Infernal Affairs in 2002. More importantly, it is a very predictable idea, meaning you can easily predict the course of events. Rather, you can predict events as well.
However, the method of formulating the story and its solemnity in the night atmosphere and the continuous style of movement still kills some of the stereotypes of the work, and Korea needs such series to break the routine of crime in drama. We have become accustomed to the style of chase, and now in this work we are familiar with the style of battles and intrigues.

A hero sent from heaven or an unpunished sinner

Another series that comes to ask big, complex questions about justice and morality, thrusting us into a world where the lines between right and wrong are blurred. Mostly leaning towards the drama of The Vigilante 2023, but here the way they've gone about it is interesting and innovative with some tropes being used to dig deep into them with unremarkable black comedy.
What I liked is that the main hero is not the center of the story, but rather it was written as a transition between several main characters in a vicious pursuit, and we can understand the reason for this in the end as their points of view change.
Therefore, this show, with its dark atmosphere, its dark moral structure, and the disturbing ending that does not give you a clear answer, came only to show you the characters with all their flaws and allow you to watch them exist in that shadow reflected from their consequences, circumstances, or their own imaginary ideas.

However, unfortunately...
After setting up an interesting premise, the show fails to delve into the depth of the story, and quickly falls into a state of extremely slow burn. Especially since I was expecting another dark psychological crime drama from director Lee Chang Hee after his long absence since (Strangers from Hell 2019), but I did not understand where the flaw was here: Is it in the scenario or in the plot?
It is true that it makes this new drama, A Killer Paradox, different from other works in KDrama and distinguished by its directing style, and it is no wonder that this series is good in this aspect. Rather, this series should be among the best directed this season, especially with the consistency of the musical background to highlight the comedic tone. Dark and give life to the display.

⚒️🔨 However, somehow it slowly lost its charm as we approached the end. The first four episodes are good on all levels and in all aspects. After that, the story continues with all kinds of deception and unnecessary twists, and sometimes the rhythm of the episodes as well as the development of the story is disjointed, chaotic, and slow until the end of the episode. The eighth (last) one I already knew where it was going (away from the detective story) and it wasn't surprising that it turned out that way.

♻️ In general...
It is not what you would expect from a suspense series about a serial killer or a hero with superpowers who targets bad guys, as indicated in the summary of his story. It is just a crime, investigation and chase series with a story with a dark atmosphere and revenge quests, far from being a fictional story. It has a chaotic plot, is relatively slow and boring.
In general, it could have been produced as a long, dark film, omitting the plot of the murderous detective because it is sideways and was only used to add more tension and events to the scenario. I personally did not like adding that character, but I understand that he had to be there to make the story more clear. However, the ending caught the eye. My attention to his past.

The flower that blooms at night

Here it is, the flower of the night is blooming 🌸
Knight Flower left me wondering how to describe it to you

First, if you're looking for romance, look elsewhere. This drama is a comedy in a historical guise with some mystery based on the secrets of the past. It gives you only a touch of romance (a touch to titillate and attract) and then it will leave you in the end without any kiss.
But open another bow, there was a butterfly of chemistry fluttering between the flower and the knight.

What is certain is that Lee Ha-nee is the prominent, dueling and blooming flower in this show. This series would not have been good with others, and as usual, its series, especially those with a sense of humor, do not achieve high results for no reason. There is something to watch and/or enjoy.
Of course, without ignoring the rest of the crew, each one of them watered this flower with his important role, goal, and lines or appearances until it bloomed, because the show is basically based on the widow and her personality between day and night.

Now what I want to say, which is the most important...
The story in its first half was good and entertaining in terms of comedy and dramatic atmosphere because the focus was on the lives of widows in that era, and therefore the historical and cultural sense was present. However, in its second half, the story quickly turns to a slow pace and becomes heavy with some ridiculous comedic situations.
It also lacked strong plots and knots, and then again with the final episode we enjoy the same energy in the first episodes because they left everything until the end and it was resolved with absolute ease. The fact that the ending was completely expected and cliched is because this type of story that comes in a historical guise focuses more on the journey and not on the destination or the path.
In general...
This far from perfect drama is just the right show to have a good, entertaining time, because there was a lot that I enjoyed. It started off very well with a light story, nice characters, and a heart of humor and then started dragging its feet and throwing everything at the end.
As a historical drama, it lacks the typical sajok features with a repetitive story of political conflict.
Overall, I finished this drama feeling satisfied either way. If you are looking for a good time and love the heroine, I will recommend you try it, but if you are like me, a fan of historical series, do not expect much from it.
If I wanted to exaggerate and flatter her, I would describe her as a simplified female version of a drama (Iljimea 2008).

"You have to live, my dear. I lost my sight, but I can still see you. Close my ears, but I can still hear you. And without the feet, I can still follow you. Without the sound, I can still call you. Break my hand, but I can still hold you. Hold you with my heart as if I were to hold you in my hand, let my heart stop. But My mind will keep beating, and if you ignite this spark in my mind, then you will flow through my body like water"
This is how Shinji Ozumoto describes his love for Hibiki Eda. The plot of the story is wonderful to the point that you have the idea of ​​loving someone in this way. The film describes the love of a deaf girl for a manga writer who becomes blind and how she helps him hold on to hope and live his life and not give up and be able to find happiness in the simplest things in his life... Performance. The actors were wonderful. I felt sad and happy. I lived the roles with them, and their feelings reached me

Another historic masterpiece?

wonderful ending and an amazing conclusion
For the most wonderful, strongest, most luxurious, and most enjoyable drama so far in 2024
No wonder, as it is the first K-Drama to rely on the latest Hollywood special effects (Virtual Production VP). It is the second work through which the production aims to restore the glories and style of ancient historical series, thus becoming the 34th epic drama of KBS, which was developed to celebrate the half-century anniversary of the channel’s broadcast system.

On the other hand, the Goryeo-Khitan War is a historical epic that aims to create pride and make known the origin of Korea by honoring the exceptional historical achievements during the war of the Goryeo-Khitan kingdoms, whose historical background goes back from the years 1009 to 1020. It is not necessary to be of Korean origin in order to live Their events or be inspired and feel their feelings of pride.
It is the story of many heroes, including the young Emperor Hyeonjong who unified his kingdom under the tolerant leadership of his political mentor, Gang Gam-chan, who led a 26-year war against the Liao dynasty. They succeeded in bringing victory and prosperity to the Goryeo Kingdom and peace in the East Asian region.

⚔️ All this in the plot of a series that tells stories rich in events and close to historical facts throughout 32 episodes, driven by the characters that the writer built, drawn, distributed and developed in a wonderful way. It sometimes reminds us of the series The King of Legend 2010, commonly known as (Clash of Kings).
In addition, it is characterized by deep dialogues with intelligent responses through which the characters’ points of view are explored, whether in their conflict or discussion. With good ossets and perfect music, it worked to enhance the atmosphere
The cast, full of familiar faces from older productions, also brought value to this show especially with the performances of young actor Kim Dong-jun and veteran Choi Soo-jong.

Summary of the statement...
This series captivated me for 4 months of showing since November 2023, so it will leave a big void in my routine on Saturdays and Sundays, especially since it gave me a distinct cinematic experience.
For me, the series “The Goryeo-Khitan War” is more than just a historical drama, it is a ticket back to that time, and it will certainly succeed, even if only slightly, in bringing you back to the days and years in which the K-drama was characterized by epic historical works in the old school style.
On the other hand, it contains all the basic elements that make sageuk wonderful in a modern way, taking advantage of the latest technologies.
It is an inspiring story driven by characters and balanced with constructive dialogues in the plot of a series rich in exciting and poignant events, with music that helps convey feelings and immerse oneself in the atmosphere.
True, it may be intended for history buffs or fans of serious historical drama, but I think even if you are not one of them, this is definitely a drama worth watching.
