A moment of silence for what it could.ve been
I.m just coming out of a kdrama break and I stumbled yesterday upon LA2. Oh my god, I said, finally. Oh my god, I said a day later, this is terrible.
If you.re reading this and you.ve watched kdramas for a couple of years now (personally I started 9 years ago) I would like to comment on 2 things that I absolutely hate about what we.ve been offered these years>
-Kdramas have become less focused on actual good plots and that focus has been put on details like fashion, hairstyle, makeup (that are usually way overboard- I mean, I like it, but too much dude)
-Actors are like plastic- they can't act anymore and they look like babydolls. Girls are way too perfect (to the last hair strand) and guys are just as perfect and what is worse is that (at least in my opinion) they are too feminized.
What does this have to do with love alarm?
1. Not one of them is actually playing a role. Everything is resumed to staring into blank spaces looking dramatic af. Let's add some tears in the eyes while looking like we blanked out at math class and this is what this drama is made of.
2. I can't help but compare> do you remember I miss you? Where Kim So Hyun played as the young character played my Yoon Eun Hye. Do you remember HOW INTENSE EVERTHING WAS? Do you remember the first 4 episodes where she appeared most often? Are you telling me that looking sad is all that she can do? GOD! I'm so angry about this. And that was 9 years ago! What happened?
3. The guys- (I mean she is also a part of this but let's look at the guys for now)- they have no personality. They have nothing special about them. The badass what-his-name-was is basically a hot stalker by season 2 and the other one- he's only worth of pity. I don't know why the writers were so cruel to the characters, they are so superficial, there's nothing profound about them (and adding a sprinkle of family drama really does not do the trick).
4. No, really, take a minute to look at their acting- all we get is close-ups of them staring and that's all
5. Must not forget the plot: But is there even one? :)
Don't get me wrong, I love a good old casual kdrama but this is too much. I'd rather watch some Love-evil parents-amnesia-I don't love you-Oh I love you- kinda crap. But in that era, the actors tried to SHOW THOSE GODDAMN EMOTIONS. Chaotic and stupid as they were, they were more complexe.
This aesthetic shit that they are trying to give us is really not appealing. Give me real acting and aesthetics if you want. I'm not accepting less, it's 2021 already.
