I've watched first 3 eps on Huace Youtube (membership). The production quality is top notch. Finally after long time I can watch "real" historical drama ✨️
Check WeTV and IQiyi Indonesia region. They will air it in the premiere time.
I contact wetv via DM. They said, they accept my suggestion. So basically, for now it wont air on wetv. This condition reminds me to joy of life season 2. It didnt air in indonesia region (so I watched on wetv region US LOL).
Huace youtube will release this drama on 20.30. So I will watch it on YT.
I am so excited for this drama. But seems this drama wont air on streaming platform in Indonesia region. So now I wish I can watch it on Huace youtube.
Now I realize another factor from what I already said last night. The title imply about human translation & interpretation: from missunderstanding become understanding & empathy; from hate become love; from stranger become lover. But the script itself didnt really do that. The main couple barely having deep & meaningful conversation. Dorami only tell FL secret, & ML do sacrifice. Until last eps, FL didnt know that SFL is her manager's fiancee. Etc. In example, the growth of FL rely on scenes when "she closed her eyes", suddenly everything come to resolution. The problems-resolution & characters development on CTLBT rely on editing LOL
I can compare this drama with Run On (a drama who also potray translator life) who really do great job about human communication: light, funny, but also deep & meaningful. Audience can see the growth of the character.
As someone who watched Hong sisters' drama since Sassy Girl Chunhyang era, watching CTLBT feels nostalgic: the signature character setting & plot of the writers. CTLBT feels like The Greatest Love + Master Sun.
On eps 2, I was teary because of this nostalgic vibes. I also love "dark" vibes on A Quite Woman filming /scene. I am so happy for first 6eps.
But unfortanely after watched 12 eps, I feel something off. My Girl, The Greatest Love, You're Beautiful left long lasting after taste for me. I was also very emotional when I watched those dramas. I still listen to those OST till now, & I always recall the emotion back then. But unfortunately I didnt really feel something emotional around eps 9-12. Why did suddenly I loose my empathy for the protagonist? Why all the problems seems like only decoration, that definitely would having happy ending?
My mind actively analyze why. I think the problems come from script structure & dialogue. The script failed to build depthness of the trauma of each character. The triangle love suddenly became main couple part + second couple part + Hiro part. The narative logic like: the manager moved to JHJ's house, but he never met CMH. Etc.
Now I am going to sleep. Seems my mind will still busy to analyze after that.

I love couple photo contest & bonfire game.
For the veteran scriptwriter (scriptwriter who start their career since late 90s or 2000s), I only love Noh Hee Kyung writer.
