berliansiahaan Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 sia3 said: @cikamoiHmm thanks for the clarification. The similarities between SG and BOFs component that I didn't enjoy is the part where the parents get involed in their children's relationships. I, personally, is not fond of storyline of this sort anymore. I've seen too many versions of it, that's why I am sincerely hoping that this drama won't have this component in it. Or else, it will be BOF deja vu all over. *shaking heads* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wisteria7 Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Hmmm,@Maja it seems like what cikamoi just explained. There's a lot of speculation about what his part will be like but nothing is official.I really don't intend to drive myself crazy trying to outguess what will happen.I will just have fun watching it when it plays.Maybe the old Faith forum perverts will be back. I'm glad i was one of the originals. The double and triple meanings were fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not familiar with the genres much Here is another definition of "Makjang" from Blue... The word “makjang” as commonly used in reference to dramas is a made-up term – a misnomer of the word “ggeutjang” (끝장), combined with the word “majimak” (마지막). (Ggeutjang means death or the end, whereas majimak means final or last.) Koreans frequently say the phrase “갈때까지 간다,” and it means “seeing things to the end, whatever may come of it.” In popular culture, the term “makjang” came to be used to represent the idea of having reached that extreme. For instance, a thug who steals from his mob boss, commits murder, and now on the run can be described as leading a makjang life. Then what makes a drama makjang? When it comes to dramas, when plot devices involving extreme, absurd, or outrageous instances of life (cases that make you go, hmm, what’s the likelihood of that happening in an average person’s lifetime) are dealt with in an illogical or twisted manner to arouse or hook the viewers, or conveniently inserted for that exact purpose, they are described as makjang. (Think American daytime soaps.) Some frequently used makjang devices include birth secrets, potential incest, adultery, revenge, terminal illnesses, rape, murder, and suicide. But it is important to note that it is not the mere appearance of these elements that make a makjang, but in how they are handled and how much this deviates from what is an acceptable behavior. For example, just because a drama deals with an extramarital affair doesn’t automatically make it a makjang. But in a case where the husband has an affair with his wife’s friend, tries to force his wife to have an abortion despite her refusal to do so, and then eventually watches as his wife drowns in a boating accident that he caused, well, this comes awfully close to being safely classified a makjang (a scene from Temptation of a Wife). Since “makjang” is not an official word, it’s difficult to say what would be the correct or incorrect usage of the word. But as commonly used, makjang can be used as a noun to refer to the classification/genre of dramas that play up their “makjang elements”, or as an adjective that describes the characteristics of such elements.Source: http://belectricground.com/2011/04/11/korean-language-and-culture-series-makjang/ I get it reminds me of nice guy ,yawang the drama I am currently watching and some if not all aspects of city hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
