Masterpiece in the making!
wow this is amazing, ep 1 shows a new kdrama masterpiece in the making!!!It is a family drama involving a city family moved to a small village .... so there are tons of fun scenes and actors
The music is sooo fun LOL spaghetti western with the ML village scenes LOL
This is a great comedy. Yeah there are all kinds of real life scenes, but everything is permeated with gentle or raucous comedy
the topics of the drama are not light :) We get to see a corporate-failed dad, school-failed older son, america-failed mom and 2 younger sons, and then ... various mysterious village personas and shady corporate personas....
The drama is really comical yet it is very deep and heavy, actually. That sense of lightness and VIBRANT LIFE PUSHING FORWARD is accomplished by being present in the moment....
Moment-to-moment, we get to see the depth and the lightness and humor in each moment, and the LIFE AND LIGHT that permeates everything and pushes towards healing.
kdramas are masters in that and this is definitely one of those pedigreed masterful kdramas .
It is MASTERFUL STORYTELLING. Showing the muck, the process out, the healing, and the transformation.
I love acting of the ML actor, he is one of my favorites.
I am not sure why it is only 1 episode per week, that is the only bummer.
Overall, this looks like a masterpiece in the making! A really fun drama, deep complex yet fun! The classic kdrama style, talking about super deep and heavy subject with a sense of lightness and humor.

Made for Pursuit of Jade and Hwood fans :)
Hm... This feels like watching... Pursuit of Jade or something like that....Totally looks like a cdrama. A gaunt girl-like idol-face ML, male idol hype and worship... overly dramatic and self-important ... bombastic sensationalistic "pretty" scenes... plus psycho behaviors from ML and FL, and basically - two arrogant psychos getting together to rule the world.
Those are the hwood and cdrama bombastic details that somehow should serve as "the plot"
This is male idol worship and also worship of the rich and ruling. Just like hwood. For example, the scene of ML parading on that runway to the throne in ep 1 in his flowing robes - ah so mysteriously handsome... not. It is CRINGE.
I don't see dialogues, I dont see messages, I dont see content, the acting is cringe, there is no LIGHTNESS anywhere, it is so heavy and so self absorbed in its own self importance -
just lots of bombastic flashy scenes -
overall, looks and feels like a Chinese military parade or PoJ or some hwood trash - cdrams and Hwood are very similar, if you have not noticed yet :)
I am out of here, this is disgustingly content-free. It is a cdrama in Korean lol or hwood in Korean
TOO MANY RED FLAGS :) pun intented
I JUST READ THE REVIEW BY OPPA_ AND THAT IS THE MOST EXCELLENT REVIEW YOU SHOULD READ TO UNDERSTAND THE UNDERLYING BRAINWASHING OF THIS DRAMA.
>>>>Oppa_ review described in great more detail how Perfect Crown brainwashes ppl into romanticizing autocracy. <<<<<< I refer to it indirectly in my review and leave it to you to figure it out, but Oppa_ describes it straigt on and backs it with historical data.
(Oppa_ is a rather sexist person, based on statements againt women in their posts and reviews, so he/she did not comment on the male worship in Perfect Crown... but you have that in my review.)
Farewell :)

An easy comfortable watch, i.e. good script, good filming, good family drama, lots of good actors
This drama is a breath of fresh air, showing normal people doing normal things, it FLOWS easily and effortlessly.... it is an enjoyable watch. The quality of this drama is on par with any miniseries.In the Discussion section, ppl say this is an easy watch, bc there are no snags, sufferings, dragging, etc. The drama just flows naturally and easily. That means - good script, good filming, and good acting.
ML starts to be more than just a pokerface around ep 10, and that enlivened the drama a lot. ML-FL and SML-SFL and any combo of those 4 interacting is very fun to watch.
There are plenty seasoned actors in there too, which makes it interesting to watch. My fav is Grandma from the restaurant.
Last but not least, i love the styling in this drama, each character has unique and consistent styling that makes the character more believable.
The camera and production are great too, visually it is seamless and interesting.
and the music is really fun, really matches the plot
overall, highly recommended so far
This is a classy drama on par with any drama out there
It is only 9 bc there was some cringe with FL in early episodes, she was .. hm.. immature... and ML was poker faced snotty snub and hat was just boring and ugly...
and luckily, ML became a lot more lively and FL dropped the cringe, and how those two play off each other is just HILARIOUS. They are a very endearing and fun couple
ML actor has a knack for acting friendly scenes, he is very charming and endearing, and FL bounces off him in most hilarious ways' and SML and SFL are acted perfectly. So it is fun to watch
====
I am starting to sync up with this drama because it is normal and pleasant and comfortable and ML finally started to wake up, so the scenes ML-FL and SML-SFL and any combo are totally hilarious and well done. I loved the senior home, ride home and the restaurant. The arrows were HILARIOUS :) I loved grandma and grandpa in bed. It is nice that Uncle and Aunt also love each other, and have a good bed life too. I like how the drama is showing love in many different ways.
In terms of looks, this is a well done drama, everyone is styled perfectly, so it is a PLEASURE to look at them. I love the "prefection" look of SML and her classy outfits, hair and jewelry, and I love the vibrant energetic look, smile and white teeth of SML who just exudes good health, and I love his clothes, looks really good on him,
and today I was studying fashion, ML looks good in light blue shirt and shiny jacket. and FL is actually cute and her clothes fit her character. I love the navy vest and blue-gold tie of SML's dad.
ML is excellent in "friendly" scenes, that is where he really shines and is super cute and charming. The serious snotty poker face scenes just are NOT for him. Then he is just a scrawny little nothing. The drama should let him go free with displaying good times and affection and humor. The bike ride home was HILARIOUS :) That's why I want to feed him and send him surfing, he gotta keep up with that strong lady.
Bc ML woke up, FL can now act more. FL actress has many facial expressions and really has fun acting off ML, and is great for comedy. I am enjoying watching her bc she is so lively and energetic.
I love watching the Grandma next door :) she is fun

No content... flashy scenes, fake acting, silly dialogue
Well this is like a slide show of very sensational and/or pretty images, whizzing by fast...The acting is sooooo fake... soooo cringe... ough bad!!!
and the dialogue is super simple and rather silly
it is just over the top bombastic and dramatic
I doubt there is any humor in this or any lightness
it is great for audience that cannot focus on acting
Basically a short vertical but in a long format.

PURSUIT OF JADE - wow what a scam lmao
I just read an article about Chinese government's public announcement asking for focus on good scripts rather than just looks ... and millions of fans, international too, are saying they just care to see a pretty face and how the ML actor is so beautiful...
I would say to idol fans swooning over the "beauty" of these Chinese actors: Capool beautiful LMAO Chinese military publicly complained about ML not looking like a man... Indeed, he looks like a porcelan doll skinny sickly teenage girl .... yeah with tons of makeup...
Gees, I found myself symphatizing with Chinese military and Chinese government LMAO Never ever expected that :) but on this issue, I totally see their point :)
And I wish them good luck... It is their fault they dumbed down the ppl so much that this is happening... the people do not have any interest to think about deeper subjects and they only care to swoon over some pretty boys.... HOW COME IDOL FANS ARE NOT PROTESTING THE WAR IN IRAN OR GENOCIDE IN GAZA - OR THEIR OWN GOVERNMENT? but are playing hookie worshiping porcelan-pretty faces?...
So funny, the cover photo for the "popular actors" shows 4 ppl 2 men and 2 women - who look almost identical... And inside the article, all these ppl look alike.....
The new trend is a triangular jaw and a unisex look, same for men and women... and they all look like porcelan dolls and like teenagers... They look like they came out of a cartoon..... So weird
So unhealthy.. they all look super skinny, like starved teenagers...
And even a funnier thing, the West is swooning over a cdrama, so communism WON globally LMAO
Pursuit of Jade is the best terrorist attack from China, ever LMAO
Holywood is dead and China gets to brainwash the world! Lol but with Holywood-like dramas lmao No content, just the looks and hype
THE WEST HAS SWITCHED TO CHINESE !!!!
The idol fans are great at spreading Chinese influence :) I never expected this but there we go
I wonder what will come out of this - world peace OR spread of Chinese communism lifestyle.. OR... spreading Hollywood under Chinese name... ?
Let's see :)
Also, Chinese seem to be only able to protest their government by choosing to watch these Hollywood-like delulu shows focused on the shallow ideas of some external beauty and without any meaningful messages.
This is certainly going somewhere....not good lmao
Creative amazing storytelling kdramas are going extinct... The ingredients of a good story:
part 1: flaws,
part 2: falling and having to try hard to get up
part 3: transformation
are to be found only in kdramas.
Unfortunately, new kdramas tend to focus only on the Holywood recipe to show only the TWISTED PART 1: flaws and making more and deeper flaws...
as the Hwood fans switch to ASIAN DRAMAS WITH HWOOD FEEL - essentially Hwood minus too much s.x and violence - the ex-Hwood ppl bring their preferences ... and since the West has the $$$$$$$$ and hundreds of millions of users... they call the shots
Asian dramas are going Hwood way. The totally wicked unexpected twist is that Cdramas - as most fake, silly, dramatic, shallow, meaningless, and sensationalistic - are closest to Hwood so ppl love them LMAO
This turn of events is better than any drama out there LMAO but it is actually scary and sad.
Idol fans are blind and irrational, and lack common sense and objectivity , so them overtaking the world is a scary thing
So let us see what happens :) The way it is going, this is my prediction:
THE IDOL FANS WIN :) ultimately, as the world slides into Idiocracy, 2006 american movie, or american movie Equilibrium, but not quite, bc ppl will be like porcelan dolls and not able to live their own lives.
Eventually one day everything will look like that cheesy cdrama, just a bunch of fast whizzing images and nobody thinking. Then the whole world will collapse and we EITHER enter Matrix movie or everything disappears and humans start from scratch

wow holywood with asian actors - meaningless fast paced chaos and drama, no content, no acting
If you like holywood, great, this will please you, here is LOTS to see and nothing real is happening. The conversations are menanigless, short and supposedly witty and funny. You will feel right at home!!!!IF YOU WANT SOME SUBSTANCE AND SOME GOOD ACTING THEN ... RUN!!!!! dont waste time on this drugged-out fantasy without content
and the acting is super bad
the whole thing is fake
yeah the story is kinda interesting but the execution of it is a total hoola boola smoke and mirrors show, just a whirling non stop some kind of crazy happening, AND NO CONTENT
