I didn't expect the literature of Korean dramas to be so good

I revisited the Japanese anime "Monster" some time ago, and the fifth episode made me feel awe at this anime from fifteen years ago, and I felt that the Japanese made anime so literary.

Today I watched the third episode of "It's Okay to Be Mental". When the screen at the end changed and Kim Soo Hyun jumped up in place of the congressman's son, I suddenly felt like watching "Monster" at that time. When our directors and screenwriters are still thinking about how to convert a good script into a film that can be broadcast in line with "values", and how to deliberately create suspense and "show off their skills" to the audience, the directors of Japan and South Korea are already perfect. It explains how to present entertainment and literature together in front of the audience. Saying these things is not self-defeating. I also admit that we also have films that successfully reflect the literary quality, such as Wang Jing's "Ten Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart", which is definitely a masterpiece, but such a film has no market, and can Few people appreciate it.

I have always believed that the literariness of literary works is one of the main reasons why it is superior to film and television works. It allows the audience to obtain thousands of unique feelings from their own perspective, and it is different from film and television works similar to " Techniques such as "open ending" deliberately create a process of multiple interpretations. Korean dramas in recent years have impressed me with the level of these directors and writers, even with the extensive use of narration and dialogue, they can be properly interpreted. But this can't blame Chinese directors and screenwriters. After all, creative freedom is the primary productive force that tends to be advanced in the entertainment industry.

    Sorry, two episodes are abandoned. Kim Soo Hyun, hurry up and get out of the romance universe. The things that can be said in romance are too narrow, even if there is a discussion of social issues such as mental illness, it is attached to romance.

    The whole story is compact, the actors' acting skills are online, Kim Soo Hyun's lines are excellent, and the director's editing filters are all good. As expected of Kim Soo Hyun, the selected script is good
