Love was definitely in the air when it came to 2020 Korean dramas as we were treated with one lovely on-screen couple after another. Many of them had such tangible chemistry that fans began to ship the lead pairs IRL too.

Kim Soon Ok-Kim Eun-hee-Kim Eun-suk, 2020 Home Theater is Kim Shi-dae 3 Generation X


2020.12.24

 

2020122409547222328_5.jpg?222?rnd=9410

 

In the history of Korean political history, the term `` era of the three Kims '' refers to a span of 30 years enjoyed by three deceased politicians... Those who are now the most influential in broadcasters also constitute the "era of the three kim". Authors write dramas. They are similar in age. And if you look at broadcasters in 2020, it's not easy to pin down the year other than the names of these three. The main characters are Kim Soon Ok, born in 1971, Kim Eun Hee, born in 1972, and Kim Eun Suk, born in 1973.

 

In 2008, when writer Kim Soon Ok became known as SBS "The Temptation of a Wife," Kim Eun Hee's successful work on SBS "Sign" was in 2011, and Kim Eun Sook's hit SBS work "Lovers in Paris" was in 2004. 10 years is enough time. Over the past 10 years, Korean home theater has been transformed by these “three kims”....

 

Screenwriter Kim Eun Suk presented "The King: Eternal Monarch" on SBS. The ratings ended at 7-8%, down slightly from their initial 10%, but the global response was good. In East Asia, such as Hong Kong, and Southeast Asia, such as Thailand, it is constantly gaining popularity thanks to Netflix, as well as in South America. There are parts with a halo of his previous works "Goblin" and "Mr. Sunshine", but it is noteworthy that her worldview was even deeper.

 

The three Kims also have a common denominator, as they are writers who build a solid view of the world. The "worldview" is seen as the foundation of intellectual property (IP) rights for cultural content in 2020. Like BTS, it is important for singers these days to continue their stories with an independent worldview. A worldview literally defines one content identity and is an element that can provide a wide range of industrial impact.

 

In it, fantasy is the key to success. All three create a situation that seems unlikely in reality and open the board. Spectators experience sensations like a roller coaster, which in their works cannot be experienced in reality. It also makes it possible for objectification to see reality only when you get out of reality. Fantasy in drama requires a distance of about half a step, which should not be too far from reality, but they gracefully guard this distance with their works.

 

2020122409547222328_4.jpg?222?rnd=4823

 

Their work is extremely relevant. This is because the times when you are unable to leave the house due to Corona 19 and the shutdown times when you cannot walk up to each other are getting longer. Disappointing reality. You always need a way out somewhere. With a tool called drama, they constantly transport viewers to different fantasies. At the beginning of the drama, their work was criticized for its vibrant color, but as a result of recent years, they have proven themselves to be the most suitable storytellers of our time.

 

Artist Sun-Ok Kim is planning a second and third season for Penthouse. Screenwriter Kim Eun Hee is set to air tvN'Jirisan early next year, and Kim Eun Sook is also keen on her next job due to the relatively low ratings for "King." What will we be fascinated and fascinated with by these three storytellers in the coming 2020s? It can be foreseen that there is still work to be done on the drama.

True beauty: they reference dramas by Lee Min Ho and Hyun Bin

 

Updated December 24, 2020


Nb3KBD70?format=jpg&name=medium

 

The drama "True Beauty" surprised the audience by paying tribute to the popular K-dramas "Love Crash Landing" and "The King: Eternal Monarch."

 

Although it does not capture audiences in South Korea, True Beauty has become a favorite with an international audience that is eagerly awaiting the premiere of its two weekly chapters. They released episodes 5 and 6 this week, and they were furious over their bows to Lee Min Ho and Hyun Bin's dramas.

 

In Episode 5, two scenes created a splash in tvN's K-drama, which went viral immediately.

 

The first excerpt was in Chapter 5 of True Beauty, when Moon Ga Young dreams that she goes on a school trip without makeup, and her friends look at her in surprise when faced with this situation, Cha Eun Woo appears in the middle of the forest, dressed in an elegant suit ... ride a horse.

 

This scene was associated with Lee Min Ho and his role as emperor in the drama King: Eternal Monarch. Here is an excerpt.

Crash Landing on You to The King: Eternal Monarch; Hilarious K drama references in Moon Ga Young's True Beauty

 

*SPOILERS ALERT* With fans loving True Beauty's crisp storytelling and earnest performances by the youthful cast, we look at some hilarious K-drama references that have been made so far on the popular tvN drama.

 

true_beauty_k_drama_references.jpg?itok=

 

December 2020 is ending on a good note in the K-drama sphere as we have shows like True Beauty giving us some much-needed company. Based on the popular webtoon of the same name, the tvN drama is turning out to be an unmissable series with a very interesting cast to boast about including Moon Ga-young, ASTRO member Cha Eun-woo, Hwang In-yeob and Park Yoo-na.

 

Given the youthful storytelling of True Beauty, it doesn't come as much a surprise that there have been several pop culture references being made on the show. Amongst them, we also have True Beauty recreating some classic romantic K-drama sequences but with tons of hilarity interlaced in them.

 

Let's take a look at three K-dramas which were hilariously referenced to in True Beauty below:

 

The King: Eternal Monarch

 

 

 

From one classic 2020 K-drama to another; True Beauty Ep 5 also saw a hilarious reference to The King: Eternal Monarch. In a funny dream sequence, Ju-gyeong envisions going on a school trip without her makeup on with all her classmates looking at her in utter bewilderment. However, saving her from embarrassment was none other than Su-ho who comes riding on a horse while adorning a royal attire starkly similar to Lee Gon (Lee Min-ho). Even Ju-gyeong dons a tan winter coat similar to Jeong Tae-eul's (Kim Go-eun) in the recreated scene which abruptly ends when Su-ho's head turns into that of a pig. That's the moment when Ju-gyeong is harshly woken up from her bizarre dream.

While almost the entire world will collectively agree that 2020 has been one big abysmal year, many of us relied on entertainment to provide us with a much-needed distraction from reality. Moreover, Korean dramas, which were already popular from before, found an even bigger fanbase during the quarantine period. Many 2020 dramas have already reached cult status; that's how impactful of a year it has been.

 

Pinkvilla recently held a poll to determine which 2020 K-drama was the ultimate favourite for fans. The poll was divided into two sections; in the first one, we had The King: Eternal Monarch, It's Okay To Not Be Okay, Crash Landing on You and Itaewon Class, while in the second one, we had Hospital Playlist, Start-Up, The World of the Married and Record of Youth. In the first poll, emerging victorious was Lee Min-ho and Kim Go-eun's fantasy romance series as The King: Eternal Monarch stood atop with 40.1 percent votes.

 

Following second was Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin's eternal romance series Crash Landing on You which collected 29.3 percent votes. Rounding up the list, we had Kim Soo-hyun, Seo Ye-ji and Oh Jung-se's fantasy drama It's Okay to Not Be Okay and Park Seo-joon's revenge drama Itaewon Class at No. 3 and No. 4 with 23.3 percent votes and 7.4 percent votes respectively.

Global spread of K-content through Netflix
 

Netflix is driving the global popularity of K-content by introducing various Korean works to the world, including Asia.


VICE, a famous digital media in North America, highlighted the explosive popularity of Korean dramas that have recently been happening throughout Asia. The media emphasized Netflix's role as the main background for K-content to spread globally, noting that K-content viewing in Asia through Netflix has increased significantly this year.

 

The media reported that K-content viewing in Asia has quadrupled this year compared to last year. In addition, compared to January and February this year, K-content viewing increased by 150% across Asia on average from March to July, suggesting that K-content could spread more widely through Netflix, which allows users to enjoy various contents without time difference. In addition, he emphasized the 2.5 times increase in viewership in North America and Europe, including the U.S., Canada, Portugal, and Spain, explaining that K-content is recognized as a popular genre in the West.

 

In addition, the media pointed out that the Korean Wave, including director Bong Joon-ho's "Parasite," which swept the academy, and BTS's Billboard charts, is a global cultural phenomenon, and that the Korean Wave is expanding to not only movies but also TV series through Netflix. He then introduced Netflix's original Korean series "The King: Eternal Monarch," etc, as 10 Korean dramas that gained huge popularity through Netflix.

 

Meanwhile, Netflix has invested about 770 billion won (US$700 million) since 2015 to produce K-content that moves the hearts of people around the world, and recently announced that it will double its investment in Asian content next year through foreign media. Since its entry into Korea in 2016, Netflix has introduced Netflix's original Korean genres, and has supported up to 31 language subtitles and more than 20 language dubbing, contributing to the expansion of the New Hallyu area.

In this incredibly emotional scene, Lee Gon charges ahead on his white horse, the perfect knight in shining armor to save Jung Tae Eul. However, Tae Eul herself has put up the bravest fight when faced with a threat to her life in a land wholly alien to her. It is particularly significant because of how Tae Eul finally surrenders herself to Lee Gon because she doesn’t need to fight anymore. He will protect her at all costs.
