Korean TV Dramas are seeing more changes this year than in the last half decade, with most productions going the American way (shooting everything, or at least a good portion of the show before broadcast), and now even people behind the camera joining from Chungmuro -- in the past it was only actors. One of the most shining examples is
연애시대 (Alone in Love), produced by Han Ji-Seung. It was adapted from a Japanese novel, and it feels like everything but a Trendy Drama.
Pairing Son Ye-Jin of 작업의 정석 (The Art of Seduction) -- in a role finally showing there's something going on except that (really) pretty face -- with Gam Woo-Sung of 왕의 남자 (The King and The Clown), this is one hell of a show, with a great script, very good acting, and quite the charming atmosphere. The price might seem a little steep, but consider that:
1) This was shot in HD, and to take advantage of that, we get two episodes per Disc instead of the usual 3
2) There's a TON of really interesting extras
3) Last but not least, English Subs.
4) It looks so good I wanna hug it. Look
Disc 1 ~8 - 16 Episodes (Two Per Disc)
우연히 리퍼러를 검색하다가 외국 dvd쇼핑몰을 들어가게 되었는데 그쪽에서도 벌써 연애시대dvd를 판매하고 있더군 무려 119.99$로 그쪽에서 외국드라마가 수입되어 얼마정도에 팔리는지는 모르겠지만
있던데....
일단 반응은 국내나 국외나 같더라는...
예진은 이쁘다 그럭저럭 잘 만들어진 DVD 이다 하지만 비싸다...
곧 우리가 납득할만한 가격대로 조정될것이 확실시 된다.
