I watched this short series Aftermath (2014) the year it premiered, then watched it again in 2017 to write my review. The series was based on a science fiction web toon by Kim Sun Kwon and originally filmed to appear on mobile devices. It was directed by Kim Yang Hee, a graduate of New York Film Academy, and produced by Oasis Pictures. Because of its short length you can breeze through this drama in no time. The young actors were new to me at the time, but now, several years later, I recognize some of them from other shows I've watched since its original premiere. The Story: Quiet, unassuming, and nice high school student Ahn Dae Yong (actor Dong Joon, Neighborhood Lawyer Jo Deul Ho, and the So Jisub film A Company Man) has an accident while talking to his girl friend Joo Hee Kyung (Sun Joo Ah, Doll House) on the top of a second story building, falling and landing on a car below. He is rushed to the hospital and ends up in a coma, but makes a miraculous recovery. Soon enough, his mother takes him home and he suddenly becomes aware he has developed a super power, to predict who could be a murderer and who is about to die. Those who appear to him to have red eyes seem to be destined to die soon, while those with blue eyes seem to be about to commit murder. (Since most Asian folks have dark brown to almost black eyes BOTH eye colors stand out as unusual to an audience). Ahn Dae Yong decides to use this power to try and save the lives of people with red eyes who are about to die, and after some successes and consequent notoriety in the media he becomes an unexpected hero to the people. Gone is his nice quiet life. At first he relishes all the extra attention he receives, for instance saving an entire bunch of people with red eyes who are on a train with him, and preventing a young lady withred eyes from committing suicide, but soon enough he starts dreading his newfound popularity, especially when some nefarious types such as bully Kim Jung Gu (Kim Geun Hyung) try to start trouble with him, to the point where he gets so angry HE suddenly develops blue eyes as he develops murderous thoughts toward the bullies, and even toward his own best male friend, Jo In Ho (Kim Min Sook, Descendants Of The Sun, High School: Love On). Can he ever get his life back to normal again, or is he destined to become a murderer? If you like short but suspenseful K-dramas and a strong performance by a leading man then check it out. It's scary, but since it was mostly aimed at teenagers it's not quite as scary as one would expect. HOME TO KOREAN DRAMA REVIEWS

A mostly funny and upbeat webdrama about a robot from the future coming to save what's left of a dysfunctional family in the present day, 109 Strange Things (2017) was perhaps too short for such a delightful story premise, but nevertheless I enjoyed every minute of it, particularly the performance of lead actor Choi Tae Joon (Exit, Padam Padam) as the robot, an actor whom I've always felt was underutilized by the Korean drama industry - he should have gotten so many better roles over the last ten years; he's such a completely natural and intelligent actor, not to mention very handsome in his own way, and it's no wonder popular Korean actress Park Shin Hye picked up on his attractions and made him her boyfriend in real life. I don't blame her one bit! As I write this he is doing his required military service so I probably won't see him in anything new for another two years. Not fair! Korea should make robots their military soldiers and leave young human men alone! (How's that for an odd Sci Fi statement?). ;) The pretty actress who was his leading lady was Jung Chae Yeon, the sweet lead from another favorite short drama of mine To: Jenny. She had nice chemistry with Choi Tae Joon here, which I'm sure in some scenes would have been difficult for her: how do you show growing feelings for a robot instead of a human man? Then again, when your leading man possesses such a beaming smile, how could you not warm to him? The Story: We first meet a recent college graduate young lady, who majored in Philosophy, named Shin Ki Won (Jung Chae Yeon), when she is on an interview with a large firm trying to find a job, but with only a liberal arts degree she is not accepted. We discover this has been a pattern of hers for several months: no one will hire her because she has no experience and a liberal arts degree is seen as basically useless in the corporate world. Even when she tries to tell them why philosophy interests her so much they dismiss her intelligent discourse on the subject. Ki Won is majorly disheartened at all the rejections she has been facing, and after this current rejection she goes home only to find her lazy, older married sister, with baby in tow, accompanied by her equally lazy unemployed brother-in-law, standing outside the door of their parents' house wanting in, since they've been kicked out of their apartment for non-payment of rent. Ki Won reluctantly lets them in and they quickly make themselves at home, asking when dinner will be ready! (no offers to pay for a dinner or make one themselves). Then added to the household burden is Ki Won's younger high school age sister, who seems to be a little slow in her studies, plus a younger brother still in college who lacks ambition as well. Their parents are nowhere to be seen and we learn they are on frequent "business trips" that have to do with the father of the family being a robotics science engineer and inventor. Ki Won overnight is placed in the awkward and unenviable position of having to look after all these losers in her family herself. After dinner, as they sit around arguing, as all irresponsible families tend to do, they suddenly hear a BOOM! sound and the lights in the house go out. They run outside and see a strange, lifelike robotic man who calls himself KDI-109 and tells them he's been sent back in time from the year 2050 in order to be of help to them and get them all on the fast track to success, especially Ki Won, whom he states is his primary mission case. He can take one look at them and know everything about them, their names, their ages, their body chemistries, and their weaknesses physically and mentally. Just as they decide he's too scary to accept into their lives, no matter what he says, a strange team of gangsters arrive on the scene (two men and one woman dressed all in dark clothes and giving off evil vibes) who seem to know all about this robot man and they want to kidnap him and dissect him to see how he works! The Shin family feel sympathy for him and with the robot's help manage to shake the gangsters off and bring KDI-109 back to their home. Slowly they all get to know one another and feel comfortable with each other. Soon enough KDI-109 seems to start fulfilling the promises he made to the family to improve their lives. He tells the younger sister that she has more flexible learning opportunities at another school, how to make the brother excel at college, how to make the older sister employable from home despite having a baby, how to find a new job for the chronically unemployed brother-in-law, and last but not least, how to get Ki Won to impress hiring executives at companies so that she can make herself more employable, perhaps even confident enough in future to start her own successful business! As Ki Won wrestles with life’s big questions, and with the demands of her dependent family, will KDI-109 help her find the answers she needs to be successful? What will happen to those gangsters who want to destroy 109 so they can tear him apart and find out how he was built? Will the family's father inventor ever return to help them all stabilize their lives -- and 109's -- as well? Will any romance be able to bloom between a human, and a robot? Watch this fun short drama and discover the answers for yourselves. Enjoy!

A completely addictive Korean historical drama (sageuk), I watched 100 Days My Prince (2018) in a two day marathon while waiting for upcoming episodes of an ongoing drama I was watching to arrive on schedule. I didn't know going in that this K-drama would be so captivating and enjoyable, but I should have known, given the excellence of this great ensemble cast, and the writing of scriptwriter No Ji Sul, who had written the unforgettable masterpiece Scent Of A Woman in 2011. I finally watched this in 2020, and I wouldn't have waited two years if I had known it would be that mesmerizing a drama! I've been watching the leading lady Nam Ji Hyun (23 when she made this drama) since she was a little girl in the 2005 fusion sageuk Rebirth: Next, and had really loved her in Angel Eyes (2014) playing the younger version of Gu Hye Sun's character, and her role in Late Night Restaurant (2015) playing Oh Ji Ho's young fiance (lucky girl!). She has a wonderful warmth about her that makes her an exceptional actress. Leading man D.O. (full name Do Kyung Soo from world famous Kpop group EXO) had very much impressed me in the masterpiece It's Okay, That's Love (2014), playing an imaginary character who haunted Jo In Sung's character's schizophrenic mind, and as a psychotic criminal in I Remember You (2015). He's pleasant to look at, no doubt, but with each drama or film I watch him in I realize that underneath that pretty boy outward appearance is an actor with great substance and depth and intelligence for one so young. There was one scene in this drama, in particular, that made my mouth drop down in awe due to his superb acting, when his character cradles the blood stained clothes of a friend who had died to protect him from assassination. I felt my hot tears pour down at that unforgettable scene. "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." - John 15:13 KJV. I can just imagine what an even more impressive actor D.O. will be ten years from now, and after he finishes military service and becomes more manly in appearance instead of boyish. Watch out, K-drama World! Rounding out the excellent main cast was veteran actor Cho Seung Ha (Gu Family Book) as the dastardly villain of the story (phenomenal performance, how I hated his character!), my particular favorite Kim Sun Ho (You Drive Me Crazy!, Catch The Ghost) as second male lead, playing a coy Royal Librarian, Jung Hae Kyun (Black Dog, My Mister) playing the supportive adoptive father of the female lead character (he's always excellent), and for comic relief Lee Joon Hyuk (The Wind Blows), and veteran actor Ahn Suk Hwan (Partner, Chuno) playing an oafish politician who inappropriately lusts after the much younger leading lady character. It is so much fun to watch so many familiar faces pop up in Korean dramas. They make you smile when you recognize them in the cast. Also, the two child actors who played the leads as children are worth noting, because they were simply fabulous, even if their time on screen was relatively short: Jung Ji Hoon (Goblin, My Mister, Circle), and cutie pie Heo Jung Hun, who had played Han Ji Min's character when young in Hyde, Jekyll, and I. Every time she was on the screen and smiled so pertly my heart melted, she was just that adorable! The Story: During the Joseon era, a young boy named Lee Yool (Jung Ji Hoon, child, D.O. adult), the nephew of the current King sitting on the throne, likes to play at pretend battles with his male friends, but he always needs to win to be happy, which leads to some bullying by him of children who can't keep up with his martial arts' skills. During one particular "battle", a strong and brave young nobleman's daughter named Yoon Si Yeo (Heo Jung Hun as a child, Nam Ji Hyun as an adult) enters the scene and rescues a bullied boy, and tells Lee Yool off to his face: "You're supposed to be kind to people weaker than you are", she lectures him. Despite himself, Lee Yool is impressed by this brave little girl and starts to befriend her. They grow to like each other and they cast former enmity aside. Lee Yool even promises to marry her someday, as cherry blossoms fall down all around them. However, in the adult world, plots to disrupt the Kingdom begin to brew, initiated by an ambitious Left State Councilor named Kim Cha Eon (Cho Song Ha), events which will threaten the happiness of these two childhood friends. Cha Eon wants a weak King on the throne so that he can control him, and recognizes that the current King's brother (Jo Han Chul) is perfect to fill that role. Being a coward at heart, this brother goes along with Cha Eon's plan to get rid of the current King, his brother, by force, so that he can take his place on the throne. This all works out almost too perfectly for the evil forces in the Kingdom, and the only one to object to the new King happens to be a righteous and noble minister, the father of little Si Yeo, who is murdered right before her eyes by the evil Left State Minister. He thrusts a sword into him with all the Satanic hate he can muster. Also watching events on the sidelines, in shock, is little Lee Yool, who will become a Prince now that his weak father will take the throne as King. The two childhood friends are torn apart by these tumultuous events, and little Si Yeo has to run away for her life with her protective older brother named Moo Yeon, and eventually brother and sister are parted by fate and she is raised by a kindhearted poor man (Jung Hae Kyun) in a distant village, whom she learns to call "father", in place of her biological nobleman father who was murdered. Si Yeo's name is changed to Hong Sim to protect her identity, because of course the Left State Councilor wants to kill her since she was a witness to her father's murder. Meanwhile, Prince Lee Yool grows up harboring resentments against his weak father who is now the King and easily manipulated by the Left State Councilor, who holds the real power in the Kingdom. As a maturing young man, Lee Yool blames his father for the early death of his beloved mother, which occurred under mysterious circumstances, and to make matters worse he is married off to a girl he does not love, Kim So Hye (Han So Hee), the daughter of that same evil Left State Councilor! The only things that bring Lee Yool any happiness are 1) becoming proficient at martial arts, 2) studying Confucianism, and 3) memories of that brave little girl he had grown to love in childhood. His only friends are his devoted bodyguard named Dong Joo (Do Ji Han, lovely performance), and a Royal Librarian with a good sense of irony and fun, named Jung Je Yoon (Kim Sun Ho, who always brightened my mood whenever he showed up in a scene). Je Yoon becomes a kind of secret advisor to the Prince, and even later he grows fond of Si Yeo alias Hong Sim, too, so yet another kind of Second Male Leaditis Syndrome befell me, as I watched his cute scenes with actress Nam Ji Hyun blossom on screen. I always knew she would never forget the Prince, but at times I couldn't help rooting for Je Yoon anyway. The Left State minister Cha Eon then finds out that his daughter the Princess, who is married to Lee Yool, is pregnant, but since he knows his daughter and Prince Lee Yool have never consummated their marriage, since the Prince does not love her, he realizes soon enough he will somehow have to get rid of Prince Lee Yool permanently before he discovers his "wife" is pregnant. When Cha Eon asks his daughter who the biological father of her child is she refuses to answer him, wanting to protect that man from discovery. The wicked Cha Eon secretly orders his private soldiers to assassinate Lee Yool, but during a chase through the woods the Prince's bodyguard comes up with the idea that they should switch clothes and separate, and the poor bodyguard is murdered in the Prince's place. While falling down a hill in the escape, Prince Lee Yool hits his head on a rock and blanks out. When he is discovered later, unconscious - by none other than "Hong Sim's" adopted father - and nursed back to health by him and his "daughter" Hong Sim - Lee Yool does not remember his identity when he wakes up. They give him the fake name of Won Deuk, and they pretend Won Deuk was an ex-soldier who is her fiance, hoping to keep the lusting paws of a local politician named Park Sun Do (Ahn Suk Hwan) off Hong Sim. They even hold a fake marriage ceremony, with all the funny locals in the village they live in attending and cheering them on. Even though Lee Yool as Won Deuk no longer remembers he was a Prince, he still strangely holds some of the same personality traits and quirks he had before, such as a rude way of speaking (his standard line to everyone is "This makes me uncomfortable" - it got to be a bit of a joke after awhile), and fussiness with the run down cabin they live in, and the plain food offered him (as a Prince he of course was served wonderful gourmet food!), plus troubles relating to women and to the plain people in the town. Eventually, some of his strengths as a Prince come into focus, for instance he can read Chinese (when most poor people of that time period were illiterate), and his skills at the bow and arrow and sword are incomparable. He slowly gains the respect of the poor village people, which enhances Hong Sim's standing in the community as well. They even make extra money by transcribing books into Chinese for the local bookseller, which helps pay off debts that are owed. As time goes on Lee Yool alias Won Deuk falls in love with his fake wife Hong Sim, and she feels closer to him as well. Will he ever recover his memory, or return to the palace as a Prince, and if he does, will the evil Left State Minister stop targeting him for assassination, or plan another one all over again? What will happen to the Prince's legal wife, who supposedly is carrying his child? Will Hong Sim ever be able to recover from the loss of her "Won Deuk", whom she has grown to love, as a real wife would love her real husband? Will they ever remember that they were once childhood friends? What about Hong Sim's long lost brother, Moo Yeon (Kim Jae Young as an adult) who saved her life as a child? Will she ever see him again? What will happen to the current King, who was placed on the throne after the deaths of too many innocent people, even his own brother? Will he abdicate in favor of his far more moral son, or will a harsh punishment be delivered to him instead? The multiple side stories going on in 100 Days My Prince add lots of cool interest to this drama as well (too many to go into here without giving away major spoilers), and I can guarantee that if you start this saqeuk you will become majorly hooked on this borderline masterpiece and probably want to marathon it the way I did. Check it out if you have a long block of time you can devote to it, especially if you like historical dramas. Overall this drama has a very sweet ambiance to it, and many poetic screen moments that will linger in your memory long after you have concluded the drama. Don't forget to bring tissues ... and Enjoy!

Following a three-year wait, a cutting-edge trauma center is about to be unveiled, featuring the latest advancements in medical technology. Prior to the official launch of the center, a critical situation arises involving a North Korean vessel stranded in South Korean waters.

From visually stunning cinematography to meticulously designed costumes and sets, K-dramas spare no expense in creating an immersive viewing experience. This commitment to excellence extends to the musical score, which complements the emotional dynamics of the storyline, leaving a lasting impact on the audience. The duration and format of Korean dramas also contribute to their popularity. With most series consisting of a manageable number of episodes, typically ranging from 16 to 20 , viewers find them accessible and binge-worthy. This compact storytelling approach ensures that each episode is a carefully crafted piece of the larger narrative, maintaining a steady pace that keeps viewers engaged from start to finish. Moreover, the global appeal of K-dramas lies in their ability to transcend cultural boundaries. While rooted in Korean culture, the themes explored are universally human, fostering a sense of empathy and connection among viewers from diverse backgrounds. The exploration of traditional Korean values, coupled with modern perspectives, provides a cultural bridge that invites international audiences to explore and appreciate the richness of Korean storytelling. The influence of social media has also played a significant role in the global proliferation of Korean dramas.

As the world continues to embrace the diverse narratives that K-dramas offer, it is evident that these captivating stories have firmly established themselves as a cultural export that transcends borders and brings people together through the magic of storytelling. Difference between korean drama (k-drama) and Chinese drama (c-drama)⁉️​ Korean dramas and Chinese dramas are like applies and oranges. They are quite different from each other. Kdramas on average are shorter than Cdramas but the story still drags so much because each episode is 1 hr to 1 hr 10 mins long whereas Cdrama episodes are approximately 45 mins. Modern Kdramas are better than modern Cdramas although in recent years, modern Cdramas have made some improvements. Historical Kdramas however aren't as good as the historical Cdramas. One thing the other answers haven't mentioned is the difference in physical appearance between Korean actors and Chinese actors. This is my opinion but to me Chinese actors/actresses have more diverse looks which isn't surprising considering the fact China has in total about 56 ethnic minorities whereas Korea is 99% Korean. Moreover, I think Kdrama plots tend to be way more predictable and cookie cutter. Regardless of the genre, they all follow a guideline of how the story will develop. Cdramas on the other hand I have noticed aren't as predictable and sad endings are a lot common in a Cdrama than a Kdrama. Other than that, we all know Kdramas are far more popular internationally than Cdramas.
