WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT. in a sageuk??! one that was described as an R&J story??! HAS THE WORLD GONE MAD?

THANK GOD I CAN WATCH THIS NOW :3

dangermousie October 7 2011, 01:47:07 UTC

I know! Isn't it delicious?

PARK SHI HOO IS TOO PRETTY TO DIE, WORLD! Even the laws of sageuk bow to him.

unbelievable. i am now tempted to throw park shi hoo into every drama where a trope needs undoing. man on a mission!

I think not only the law of sageuk, I think the laws of dramaland bows to him. He's able to turn the eyes of the female lead to look at him who was originally the 2nd male lead. Not once, but twice! He's just too awesome.

okayyyyy i might check out this drama now! but this is very unlike R and J

dangermousie October 7 2011, 02:13:11 UTC

Yeah, but R&J were dmiwit adolescents who killed himself from overabundance of angst.

This one has grownups one of which wants to kill the other's father. A little different :)

Do you think they meant to kill him off and then audience response meant they decide to let him live? I'm not too knowledgeable about the live shoot system but does that apply to most KDramas even sageuks? I would think the production value alone required for sageuks would make it much harder to do on a live shoot.

dangermousie October 7 2011, 11:55:40 UTC

Sageuks are a lot less prone to liveshoots than most other dramas (they are not entirely prefilmed a la cdramas but they like to stay a couple weeks ahead) but often that disintegrates by the end - I am pretty sure by the end, TPM was doing pretty close to a liveshoot.

Re: keeping him alive due to popularity. No idea. But presumably they always intended him to be popular so that didn't alter their plan - it's not as if he's a secondary character who took over, a la Bidam.

My poor Bidam! Sorry ,had to be said. :)

Are you sure this isn't a dream sequence? I won't allow myself to be tricked by you, dm! :P Seriously if this is the ending, I'm totally adding this to my watch list. YAY.

dangermousie October 7 2011, 11:53:17 UTC

Yes, sure. It's made very explicit :) The Queen (heroine's mom) helps them fake their deaths and run away to live in peace and happiness. Watch away!
