Been watching the first few episodes, and something strikes me right away. This KDrama has the look and feel of a Japanese manga comic.
From the hair styles on the “drop-dead” gorgeous actresses, to the stoic looks of the male characters, the manga influence is so obvious. They even have a Japanese grandfather figure with samurai sword, as well as the car salesmen who look like they came right out of a manga story.
I suppose this drama was either tailored for the Japan market, or they hope to make a bundle when thay finally sell the broadcast rights to the Japan market. Glad to see it’s one show that doesn’t take itself so serious. Curious to see if the director or writers are into manga.
