IDK why but I've been feeling so good since yesterday when I started rewatching Because This Is My First Life. My mood is all up and I just feel comforted. 역시 watching is indeed my therapy.

Come to think of it how many years has it been since I first watch this, I think 4-5 years already. Time flies so fast yet the feels still remains.

The Law Café

I had a feeling this series was based on a webtoon by its style and I wasn't wrong. I tried to find the webtoon but it's in Korean so I won't be able to read it yet. I'm sure it has its differences, but I will focus on the series adaptation.

The series was entertaining. It was a light romcom with interesting characters. Each episode brought a new set of dilemmas the team had to solve, some connected to the villain and others not so much.

I think they were daring in some aspects, for example, Yoo Ri's clothing. Maybe people that started watching Korean Drama don't see it as a big deal, but those that have been watching for years will notice quickly that this is a character who wears her clothes without hiding her shoulder. I don't know if I'm explaining myself well, but usually women use shirts under or over shirts or dresses with no sleeves (unless its an evening or wedding dress), but in this series Yoo Ri wears dresses and tops with spaghetti strips without any shirt covering her shoulders and upper arms.

Another thing, and this one is impactful, was the "me too" theme. In one of the episodes a young woman comes to Yoo Ri because her boss is sexually harassing her. In their search to find other victims, Bae Joon shares that he was sexually harassed by an superior while doing his military service, and said that others had suffered the same fate until they spoke up, this made the male victim come forward. And even though, when the situation was resolved, it was only the female victim who was with them (when I think the male victim should have been there as well), the statement they made brought gender equality to the table. I have always said that there are a lot of men who are sexually harassed and abused and they are silenced by social mockery and stereotypes. It is hard for women to come forward, it is just as hard for men too. And the use of "me too" to include both genders sent a real message: men and women should not have to suffer through sexual harassment and have their bodies violated by others.

I also liked the plot of their best friends who were married and had a baby. Han Se Yeon is a female police who loves her job and is good at it. She gave birth to their baby and after maternity leave returned to work. It is her husband, Do Jin Ki who opens his restaurant in the evenings to spend the day with his daughter. This is not a usual arrangement, and his mother resents Han Se Yeon for not leaving her job to be a full-time mother. At some point, Se Yeon thinks she is cutting Jin Ki's wings but he tells her that he loves her and their baby and that he doesn't mind being a stay-home father and take care of their child and part-timing in his own restaurant until she is older enough to go to school. This is another important topic, specially in South Korea.

i also liked the fact that the villain got prison time and didn't take the easy way out by committing suicide. Although, I do pity him to an extend because his father used him and treated him awfully.

Overall, it was a good series and it brought to light issues that are important and relevant these days. Plus, it was nice seeing Lee Seung Ki on the screen.

My replay button has died after this intense last scene from yesterday’s episode of Law Cafe

I admit I didn’t expect Lee Seung Gi and Lee Se Young to bring this intensity to the scene and I concede that their chemistry is as fire as my favourite couple (of all time )Ji Chang Wook and Nam Ji Hyun had in Suspicious Partner.

Honestly , there are so many parallels between Suspicious Partner and The Law Cafe that the latter feels like a reboot with an equally awesome couple and am totally here for it.

TODAY’S WEBTOON // KDRAMA DİZİ YORUMU

UYARI : Yazılar genel olarak spoiler içerebilir. İçermeyedebilir.

İmdb puanı :7,4 Benim puanım:  7

Drama: Today's Webtoon

Hangul: 오늘의 웹툰

Director: Jo Soo-Won, Kim Young-Hwan

Writer: Naoko Matsuda (manga), Jo Ye-Rang, Lee Jae-Eun

Date: 2022

Language: Korean

Country: South Korea

Cast: Kim Se-Jeong, Daniel Choi, Nam Yoon-Soo, Park Ho-San, Kim Kap-Soo, Lim Chul-Soo, Ko Chang-Seok, Hwang Young-Hee, Yoon Seo-A

Webtoon uyarlaması webtoon konulu bir dizi! İsmi ve konusu bile kulağa şahane geliyor. Beni gerçekten heyecanlandıran bir diziydi. Üstelik başrolünde Kim Se-Jeong’un oynaması da ekstra bonus oldu. Gel gelelim beklentimi tam karşıladığını söyleyemeyeceğim. Evet kötü değildi, keyifle izledim ama bir şeyler eksik bir diziydi.

Dizi; Judo milli takımından geçirdiği bir sakatlık nedeni ile ayrılan On Ma-Eum(Kim Se-Jeong)’un çeşitli işlerde dikiş tutturmaya çalışmasını anlatarak başlıyor. Kızımız çizgi roman/kafe işleten bir aileye sahip. Babası On Ki-Bong(Ko Chang-Seok), annesi Hwang Mi-Ok(Hwang Young-Hee) ve kız kardeşi On Nu-Ri(Yoon Seo-A) ile beraber yaşamaktadır. Yarı zamanlı çalıştığı bir lokantada paket servis yaparken bir webtoon yayın evinde iş başvurusunda bulunur. Aileden gelen webtoon aşkı iş bulmasının sevinci ile ikiyle çarpılmış oluyor.

Sözleşmeli çalışan olarak işe alınan iki kişiden biridir ve 1 yılın sonunda 1 kişi anlaşmalı olarak kadroya katılacaktır. Yani aslında bir nevi diğer yeni başlayan Goo Jun-Yeong(Nam Yoon-Soo) ile de rekabet içindedir. Ayrıca Jun-Yeong, Ma-Eum’un aksine webtoonlardan hiç anlamaz ve ilgisini de çekmemektedir ama okul birincilikleri ve notları onu bir adım öne çıkarmaya yetmiştir. Dizinin konusu; çizerler, teslim tarihleri ve şirketin maddi durumu arasında gidip gelen bir üçgenin içinde dönmektedir. Departman müdürü Jang Man-Cheol karakteri ile Park Ho-San’ı izlemek bence diziyi izlemeye yeterli bir sebep olabilir. Diziye şahane bir hava katmıştı.

Ana çizer kadrosu ve oyuncu seçimi de bir o kadar güzel yapılmıştı. Lim Chul-Soo’u gördüğüme oldukça sevindim ve karakteri Na Gang-Nam ile inanılmaz eğlendim. Öte yandan dizinin sıkıcı kişisel gelişim kitaplarını andıran sürekli mesaj içeren dramatik bir yanının olması o kadarda tatlı değildi. Her olay bir mesaj içeriyordu, her sorun bir güzellikle bitiyordu. Sorunların çözülmesinde gidiş yolunun beklenmedik seçimleri bir tık ilginçleştirse de “hayat bize hep yeni kapılar açar” şeklinde bir kamu spotu izlemek bir süre sonra sıkıcı gelmeye başlıyor.

Ve romantizm. Yok ki 😊 beklentiye bile girmeyin. Romantik hiçbir şey yok dizide. Hiç yeltenmemişler. Yani benim diziyi izlerken “şimdi bir şey olacak” hissiyatım ve hayal kırıklığım 12.bölüme kadar devam etti. Sonra pes ettim. Böyle de izlemek yorucu valla, yapmayın. Bilin ki romantik bir şey yok. Yan rollerde dahi yok. Romantizm yerine arkadaşlıktır ne bileyim vefa borcudur, efendime söyleyeyim abiliktir, babalıktır gibi daha dostane duygulara yer verilmiş. Yani bu duygular güzel değil demiyorum. Bunlarda güzel tabi ki ama şimdi tatlı bir kalp çarpıntısı ekleselerdi daha da güzel olmaz mıydı? Bence çok da müsaitti. Dizide bolca sevgi vardı. Ofis ekibi dostluk arkadaşlık için dev örnekti. Ebeveynler sevginin kralını gösteriyordu. Kimse seni seviyorum demiyordu ama herkes birbirini çok seviyordu.

Yine de bu kadar hayat dersini bir araya toplamadan biraz daha hareketli bir dizi olsaydı güzel olurdu dedim. Ve diziyi doğru bir ruh hali ile izlemek gerektiğini düşünüyorum. Tam olmasa da “Slice of life” modunuz açıkken izlerseniz bence seversiniz.

Weak Hero Character Names

For those who don't know, the Weak Hero webtoon anglicized a bunch of the characters' first names from Korean to English. They don't do this for newly introduced characters anymore AFAIK, but all the names they anglicized initially have been kept that way.

Since I've gotten a few people asking about the names, so I decided to compile a list of their original Korean names. You can find amost of these on their character profiles on the Weak Hero fandom page, but I figured people would appreciate having a quick reference that is all in one place. Hopefully this helps people learn/connect their original names.

Remember, this is not a full character list, it's for finding the Korean names of the characters that had their names anglicized.

The format will be:

Anglicized Name -> Korean Name (common alternative romanizations will be in parenthesis)

Eunjang High

Gray Yeon -> Yeon Sieun (Shi-eun)

Phillip Kim -> Kim Pilyoung (Pil-young)

Teddy Jin -> Jin Taeoh (Tae-oh)

Daehyeon High

Dean Kwon -> Kwon Hyeokjin (Hyuk-jin)

Jake Ji -> Ji Hakho (Hak-ho | Hagho)

Timothy Park -> Park Taegi (Tae-gi)*

Ganghak High

Jared Sun -> Seon Jongwon (Sun Jong-Wan)

Toby Kim -> Kim Dosik (Do-sik)

Wolf Keum -> Keum Seongje (Sung-je)

Hyeongshin High
