well, it doesn't reflect their recent pop culture then. I think it was so 2000-ish, along with gyaru trend. The younger celebrities mostly have "normal" teeth, just like their chinese counterparts.
Btw I prefer real teeth to veneer, so I don't mind C-actors with slightly crooked teeth like Bai Lu or Yang Zi. They're still gorgeous and it gives them individuality.

pls don’t spread misinformation, japanese young actors now fix their crooked teeth too, even the most popular ones like Yamazaki Kento or Hamabe Minami did.

I know Koike Eiko will slay in this kind of role

Nakajima Arisa is super pretty and she nailed Nano's character in her own way

omg the last scene gave me goosebump,
Toda Erika is such a versatile actress

sadly no, but that's for the better

I'm glad it's well received though, Kmovie industry is strugling with low attendance recently.

I should have managed my expectation. It's decent but not leaving a lasting impression on me.
Yoo Hai-Jin is excellent, I know PJH is one of the best K-actors in his generation but he's just okayish here. The villagers are interesting but the progressing relationship with the king feels rushed. It feels something is lacking. I didn't even cry at the should-be-emotional last scenes. For me it's 7/10

What does Stardust do to him? He has charisma, acting chop, look, but his career goes nowhere.

dramaotaku, but you have to be a member first

reading all the theory here is fun. This drama needs to be more popular, I can't believe TBS doesn't put in on Netflix global.

quirky but adorable movie, just like Cha cha

what? 5 cm per second is his debut? such a talented kid

I agree with the direction take,
the Jp version doesn't explicitly show that the ML is dying too but the actor looks frail with sad looking eyes so it doesn't feel forced.

the japanese version is the og

yes, that's why it's called a tearjerker

I've only watched the first half since it came out quite late at night in my country. Idk how to feel, the ML isn't convincing enough as a gloomy & frail highschooler unlike the actor in the JP version. He looks like a regular at a gym. I love the FL though.

it's not always the case but sure it's hard to pass the original in this case. The ambience, the cast and the directing complement each other.

my exact question

One of my favorite drama from this season, it's hilarious and i love how it tackled a serious issue in an interesting way. I hope the rumor about the sequel is true.
