Hyeon-Oh know her password, but why he banged her doors like he cant get in????

Joo-Ran's family struggle probably not lighter than Jeong-Nyeon's. She is less talented and less brave, so far it make sense she is scared to speak up because of the consequnces.

Same, i still keep repeating to watch their performance of Chunhyangjeon.
When Yeong-Seo and Jeong-Nyeon perform their scene on stage, then its Jeong-Nyeon time to act, Yeong-Seo's background swiftly changed to real palace location. We can see that Yeong-Seo also moved by Jeong-Nyeon's Bangja.

Never officially adopted? He officially become family with JianJian.

No, its not the thought of him falling in love that make them family, but bonding by marriage. Zi Qiu didnt have romantical feeling to his sister, he feels weird too about it, he is affraid of abandonment.

As for Ling Xiao, i didnt get his reason to develop romantical feeling to JianJian. He is stressfull, missed her hometown but the writer make it the cure is Ling Xiao love JianJian?

well, the development of Ling Xiao romantical interest even creepier than Zu Qiu

From common people pov like me who didnt read the webtoon, its entertaining show. Its a amazing, especially how they present old Korean culture. So far the show focus on Jeong-Nyeon, her dream, her reason, her struggles.

For me its a show that tell the story of a girl from village who have a dream and fight for it. Because its longer than movie format, they can added many details that fit the story. So far its just beautifull story of a girl who chase her dream.

If they added queer romance in it, focus story will be stretched. For general audience, it'll probably doesn't taste like "beautifull story of a girl who chase her dream".

While webtoon fans complain about the change been made, general audience were entertained by the performance of the actors, their expression, the visual presentation they made, the richness of culture performed in motion capture, the sing, the song. All that cant be presented well on drawing.

Yes and many have spoke their feelings of objection about step sister turn to lover plot in original works.

you eliminate all of the moodlifter, lol.

I did watch Go Ahead, and rewatch it because of Family by Choice, oh mann.....

Jeongnyeon is really beautifull, personally i liked one part on episode 3.

idk AVB is...but Judge from Hell def i kept for reserve, haha.

waenyamyeon ?

She need someone close actually, not isolation.

Well so many good shows tbh. There are also Family by Choice, i think 4 first episode is a good moodlifter. Judge from Hell also quite entertaining. Then there is also Jeong-Nyeon.

In Go Ahead, she is.

When her 2 brothers come home and reunite after some years lived far away, Ju-Won isnt their cute little sister anymore.

Well let see how she will develop in Family by Choice.

I rewatch 2 first episodes of Family by Choice again.
From Ju-Won pov, she see them all as family. She see San-Ha and Hae-Jun as her older brother. From all their gestures it shows they are all close like family.

But, somehow the Korean showmaker make their family bonding not as close as the original. We can feel it, thats some part we complain.

JianJian always call her brother "Gege" and "Xiao Ge", means "older brother" and "little older brother". Zi Qui called Ling Xiao father as Ling ba (papa Ling), and Ling Xiao called JianJian's father as Li ba (papa Li).

Ju-Won occasionally called San-Ha "oppa", but Ju-Won never call Hae-Jun "oppa", Hae-Jun even giggle when Ju-Won called him "oppa". I dont understand Korean, i hardly hear what she address Hae-Jun, its translated sometimes as "you" or "brother" but i didnt hear "oppa". Ju-Won and Hae-Jun didnt call San-Ha's father as "father", more like "sir"? i think i heard they called him "ahjussi".

In the Korean version, so far we didnt see Ju-Won become so clingy to her brother especially to San-Ha. She really cared her two brother so much, but not on the same level of emotion like in Go Ahead. It probably because its only 4 episode aired or the showmaker did it on purpose.

This kind of things that made their bond is not as close as the og, and i think the Korean did it on purpose. So when they develop it to romantical relationship beween the sibling it doesnt feel as creep as the og version.

As for Ju-Won she see them all as family, but from Kim's family pov maybe not the same level as Ju-Won's. And hard to see how Hae-Jun see San-Ha's father. From some viewers pov probably their family bonding isnt convincing enough, because each family member value their relationship differently.

Yeah, in the og it was so clear she called them as Gege and Xiao Ge. And there is that one scene when she is announced her first period and showoff her bra her brother bought for her really set the tone JianJian see them all as close family member, she cant see them as an outsider even Ling ba and Ling Xiao lived upstairs.

In Family by Choice, Ju-Won rarely called San-Ha "oppa", but she called him "oppa". She never called Hae-Jun "oppa", even Hae-Jun giggles when Jun-Wo cutefully called him "oppa". In Family by Choice, the showmaker make the family bonding more distant from the og.

the poster don't say so

the og spent only 1/3 of the story in highschool time, from around ep14 the story shifted to adult time until it ended at ep40. If this adaptation follow main plot from the og, it'll probably the same and it'll be not a school drama.

I kept repeating watch them perform Chunhyangjeon on live stage. I kept rewatch all the episodes, but i rewatch the most is episode3. Their performance is so captivating, personally its my favorite episode so far.

I hope Jeong-Nyeon will have opportunity to perform like that again, and seeing her rivalry with Yeong-Seo again. Their rivalry remind me of Na Hee-Do vs Go Yu-Ri, fierce competition which push eachother to be better.

I tried to take a look the webtoon after watching the series because im curious of what happen next. From early chapter its so different than the series, no wonder the webtoon fans complained about it.

As for me, i prefer the series.

Yeah, dont know what is on Hye-Rang's mind. Is she just championed Yeong-Seo and see Jeong-Nyeon as a close rival to her, or jealous to Jeong-Nyeon? But i cant see her jealousy reason too.
