CD ep 4

Another small rant.

This drama is about anything except the title character. That is why she is NOT getting awed by modern technology or Soul or fancy food. She is not interested in anything for herself. She has no personal plans. She is not looking for her old friends and none of them reached out for her. NO media is chasing her although that story would probably be of international interest these days. NO. It’s all this big soap opera about the evil CEO, Psycho Cop and where is Ki-Ho, who is Ki-Ho and why he acts like a jerk. AS if anyone who knows anything about kdramas doesn’t know THAT. It’s so ridiculous. Somebody posted this drama had claimed to be surreal. No. Moon in a Day is surreal. This is just cheap melodrama.

    As far fetched as one might consider it, how is wanting to become a singer not a personal plan?? That’s one of the reasons why Mokha is participating in that lipsynch deal with Ranjoo.

    It’s like saying that any rom-com with the typical formula of boy meets girl and they fall in love is bad because we’ve seen it a thousand times before and we know how it is going to finish.

    In the end it’s all about the specific flavor of a show, sometimes it will suit our tastes sometimes it won’t.

      That’s barely there. In the first ep yes, she did want the career, the singing, the independence. After she was rescued she has not been the central piece of this story. In any halfway decent romcom we get to experience both leads falling in love, that’s the basic. In this it’s not about being predictable, if anything the denial of exploration of the one that should be the main lead is very unexpected.
      She is doing it much more to help Ranjoo than anything, even though it could, if people found out, cause a big scandal for her too.
      She doesn’t have singing lessons, or guitar, or a freaking hair cut. There is almost nothing there that is about the person Mok-Ha who has just spent 15 years in an island.
