Looking forward for her future works! I really hope she will change kdrama world, different from misogynistic…
I'm looking forward to her future works as well!!! But, to be fair, while you could argue that KES early works contained some misogynistic elements, that really isn't true of the later ones.
I will watch anything that you want to write, Kwon Eun Sol. I think you're a genius. Search.WWW was excellent, but your Twenty Five, Twenty One is a masterpiece, from beginning to end ... and I'm so pleased that we saw your whole vision despite the public's bullying. Good for you, strong, wise and talented woman!!! You've given us a gorgeous story, with layer upon layer of insight, unique characters to adore ... and so many incredibly moving and funny moments. I love it, the philosophy that runs through it, and all of the wonderful memories that you made for us to treasure. Thank you!!!
So reading many of the early comments on different places including here on MDL it's clearly that a lot people…
A LOT of people make ridiculous assumptions based on short descriptions, tags. shady rumours, one actor or one previous project from the writer or director. And they do it ALL THE TIME!!! They'll jump all over a drama before it even airs it's first episode. They'll judge it to oblivion, complaining and even getting angry about something that hasn't happened yet. It's actually really a sad phenomenon because all kinds of decent dramas get drawn through the mud this way. And of course, fewer people will even see them because there was so much unfounded but incredibly negative talk before they could even be seen.
Why do people make up their minds and actually have arguments about a drama after reading such a short description? Surely you guys know enough not to pay so much attention to kdrama descriptions or posters or even trailers and tags. They are always misleading or plainly wrong because there's no way that any subtlety can be conveyed in only a few lines. Just keep an open mind, and watch it when it comes out.
Thank you for this review. It's nice to have received new things to think about about as I start my first re-watch. Melancholia will undoubtedly be one of the dramas that I turn to again and again whenever I need a sure thing to lift me up and make me feel a bit better.
