Splash Splash LOVE (2015)

Socorro, que drama mais fofo! Eu estava de olho nele há bastante tempo atrás. Sempre tive vontade assistir e nesse final de semana resolvi me envolver com a historia dos dois.
Eu gostei muito do jeito como foi o desenrolar da historia, foram só dois episódios e mesmo assim eles conseguiram explorar muita coisa que eu particularmente nn achava ser possível. Mesmo eu tendo amado o jeito como ele se desenvolveu em apenas dois episódios eu ainda assistiria mais uns 14 episódios da historia dos dois sem reclamar.
Esse mini drama é ótimo para se assistir quando vc quer relaxar a mente e assistir algo leve e divertido para passar o tempo!

A short and sweet dream of every teenager is the theme of this special.
Not only it is tale of first crushes but also of first struggles, first experience ...so many firsts that you found it so relatable. A fun and successful tale which give some highlight of Korean history with glitter of romance.

As of acting, I like the female lead ...she is so relatable , her insecurities fears about life ..the struggle through which every one of us goes at some point of life . On the opposite the king was funny ......the chemistry between them is entertaining.
Music is entertaining.
Overall it is Fun watch ......

I watched this drama elsewhere but I would like to add in my review here. I enjoyed this rewatchable 2-episode drama from beginning to end and it left me wanting more 🙂 it was short, sweet and charming. There are plenty of funny scenes that made me burst out in laughter. It’s not just all humor as there are also plenty of serious moments and tear-jerking scenes. This drama does not waste time so do no worry about being bored.

The FL Danbi is super cute and silly. Her character is what one would expect from a quirky and adorable high school senior trying to find her footing. The king is young, handsome and strong headed. Their interactions are full of chemistry and you can see how the king admires every little thing about Danbi. She is the most precious person to him. Even the queen has found friendship with her. Through modern lenses, it can feel awkward or displeasing at the king not consummating with the queen and instead falling in love with another woman (Danbi). It’s even more uncomfortable to see Danbi falling in love with the king despite her knowing he is already married- doesn’t matter if he doesn’t love the queen, it’s still cheating. But, but! It’s the Joseon period and it’s normal for a king to have many wives. And, and! This is a romcom so I can forgive Danbi for being the other woman. 🙃

IMPACTING EACH OTHER:
1) Danbi escaped her modern period feeling defeated in life. But to survive in the Joseon dynasty, she had to think on her feet and be a person of valuable contribution to the king and kingdom. It just shows that she always had the potential and she just needed to believe in herself. With the King by her side and believing in her, it brought out the best in her that she never knew.

2) The King’s determination and drive to learn superseded gender discrimination and superstition. As long as Danbi was there, he felt he could change the world. She gave him hope. I really, really liked how her hoodie with the letters L, O, V, E was what inspired him to create the characters for their first writing system. It’s like... the Hangul came from his love for his people, the future of a new Korea and his woman. I’m melting ❣️

THE CORRIDOR:
When Danbi has learned that she’s to become the king’s concubine, she ran to that (secret?) corridor that I think connects his bed room and his study room. Something about this scene felt pure and sweet. Danbi has been hiding and running away from her problems then and now. But it was with the king whom she couldn’t runaway from or hide from. Whatever the matter was, they face it together. The music in this scene was perfect. Felt like the plucking of heartstrings.

OMG THE BEACH:
I love their time together at the beach. The first time at the beach when Danbi was on the run and the king meets her there, their reunion was moving. There needn’t be any words as they stared at each other affectionately. That moment when king rushes to her and kisses her passionately, I felt like I was Danbi fluttering 😂😍. This scene reminds me of the old American film Somewhere in Time (also a time-traveling love story) where there are times words are not enough when you are standing in front of the one you love. The last time Danbi and the king were at the beach together, he held on to her so lovingly and tightly as his tears flowed down his cheeks. It’s the goodbye he dreaded. And with a couple of nods exchanged between them, he let me her go through the portal. This is where I really appreciate the camera work here to show what the king may be feeling: He stood on the beach forlorn. My heart ached for him as he promised to himself that he will find her no matter how many years it takes. This lonely stance reminds me of Wang So from Moon Lovers as he stood alone thinking of Hae Soo and promising himself he will find her in the future. Life feels long when you yearn for the one you love that cannot return to you.

I'm so glad that I came across this drama special quite randomly! It was short, sweet and worth the watch!

First off, it's not your typical historical Korean drama, no no. If you are tired of those "who gets the throne", "family feud" dramas about the Joseon era, this will definitely be unique and fresh. The story looks quite ordinary and familiar from the start, but it's so well written, that only 2 episodes are enough. On the other hand, I also though that the directors could've made this into a full length drama with the continuation of the story in modern days. I was familiar with the main cast from other dramas before. Kim Seul Gi will forever be one of the spunkiest, most genuine drama actresses. She brought this story vitality. Also, Yoon Doo Joon is quite a new actor that I've discovered, but I thought that he was perfect for the role. Supporting cast - all very talented, but they'd need a side story, maybe a spin off. Nevertheless, this is something that I'd rewatch again for the beautiful and unique story!

So if you ever find yourself on an urge to watch an interesting and short drama, please give this one a go. I'm sure that you won't be disappointed and that it will leave you wanting more!

Fofo, emocionante, lindo!

Nunca que eu iria achar que um Drama de 2 episódios iria ser tão bom e me conquistar tanto!
Splash Splash LOVE fala sobre uma garota, nada inteligente, que vai fazer uma prova de vestibular e acaba descobrindo que tem uma habilidade de se transportar para outros anos e lugares através de uma poça de água. Após "entrar" dentro da poça ela é levada para a era de Joseon na Coreia antiga.
Pela sinopse pode parecer um drama bobo, mas ao decorrer dos minutos tudo foi obtendo mais sentido, pois cada elemento e cada parte ia fazendo uma relação com outra, fazendo assim, com que o drama ficasse muito mais interessante.
Achei muito interessante o fato de mostrarem a diferença na matemática da era de Joseon, onde eles não sabiam nem contar os números, para a nossa era atual. E que mesmo a protagonista sendo péssima em matemática no ano em que ela estava vivendo, era como uma gênia para a Coreia antiga. As cenas onde ela tentava ensinar coisas básicas como mostrar os números, contas simples de somar ou subtrair, etc foram uma importante parte, principalmente para o protagonista que através dos ensinos dela, foi uma importante peça para a matemática na Coreia no drama.
O final me surpreendeu muito (mas sem spoilers heheh), pode parecer bobo, mas chorei horrores assistindo o drama todo, e pincipalmente nos últimos minutos!
O casal é um amor, muito fofos! O drama me lembrou em algumas partes Mr. Queen, acho que é uma ótima recomendação para quem quer algum drama parecido com ele. Em geral eu amei demais, com certea merecia muito mais amor e reconhecimento, ainda mais por ser um drama que em 2 horas você completa inteiro. Gostaria de assistir ele mais 10 vezes com o sentimento que tive vendo pela primeira vez!
Por fim, gostaria de falar que esse é meu drama favorito do ano de 2015, por mais que pareça cringe ou bobo, ele me marcou muito e tenho certeza que todo mundo deveria ter a experiência de assistir esse mini drama pelo menos uma vez na vida! :)

A classic k-drama gem not to be missed !

This mini-drama is the perfect combination of rom-com, time travel, fantasy and historical . I have watched over 150 k-dramas and was in a drama slump when I found this gem on Viki. It’s a light easy watch, with brilliant story-telling weaving in cute romance, friendships with interesting historical nuggets about King Sejong and Jang Yeong-sil’s inventions.
Although this drama was released in 2015 (9 years ago!), the show doesn’t feel dated, and I really had a lot of fun watching it. It was also nice to see Jin Ki-joo and Ahn Hyo-seop in supporting roles in the drama (before they became the leading stars that they are now). This drama is an oldie but a goldie. The only reason why it’s not a 10 for me is because the length of the drama (2 x 60 min episodes) was just not long enough to show more of the various relationship development . A 4 epi drama would have been perfect!

I haven’t laughed this hard watching a drama in a while, and I’m very happy with the way everything was executed. The editing was sometimes a bit confusing and jumpy but not too bad. I know most of the cast in the drama except Doo Joon so overall it was fun seeing all these familiar faces in one drama. I’ve only seen Kim Seul Gi in two very short dramas, but I absolutely love her playfulness and cute acting. The storyline was overall incredible, but I can’t help but be quite unsatisfied with the way the drama ended. It was probably the best the writers could have done, but the ending doesn’t feel too happy since she ultimately left her lover and only met up with what I assume to be his reincarnated version. It’s quite sad and gives me Goblin vibes but it seems like they all recognized each other? Even then, I can’t imagine Sejong living another 30 years of his life without her by his side. Totally unrelated, but what is up with the queen’s reincarnation telling Danbi that sejong had 20 children and seduced a bunch of women? Was that real (in drama version) or a rumor? I don’t even know anymore. Anyhow, I loved this short little drama and I’m glad I watched. It just kind of hits home because the previous drama I watched had an incredibly sad ending and I wasn’t ready for that sadness in the end.

This is one of the shows you have to watch because its just that good it has a bittersweat ending but it is a fantastic love story in these two short episodes. It will make you laugh, cry and smile. All of the characters are wonderful there is no really hateful character in this story everybodys acting is on point you can feel the emotions between all of the characters in this drama. The song was perfect for this drama it fits it very well especially the ending it was so sad to see him let go of her in the end i kept thinking of this drama days after i finished it i gave it a 10 because its one of those dramas you watch and want to watch it over and over again this derseved a short short drama award im telling you now go watch it if you havent already its really good and funny give it a try.
