120528 ‘Dr. Jin’ Kim Jaejoong, Warm Visual and Affectionate Acting Perfection

In the MBC weekend drama first aired on the 26th, ‘Dr. Jin’, Kim Jaejoong’s period drama transformation won enthusiastic responses from the viewers.

In ‘Dr. Jin’, Kim Jaejoong plays the role of Kim Kyung Tak, who possesses firm beliefs and strong mindset, using his charismatic period accent. Just like how the director praised on the press conference, Kim Jaejoong showed multiple aspect of Kim Kyung Tak’s character well in episode 1 and 2, such as the strictness of a cold officer and the warmheartedness of a fiancee. He used his eyes filled with rich emotions and expressed the complicated thoughts of Kim Kyung Tak, which really completed the drama.

From Jaejoong’s command of “who are you” towards Jin Hyuk in episode one, to the tension between the two during the beheading scene in episode two, he perfectly digested the old Korean enunciation and accent, and successfully showcased his period drama acting abilities. Furthermore, the pain of a unrecognized son and the gentleness of a loving fiancee captivated the hearts of countless female audience.

After the airing, the enthusiasm towards Jaejoong’s period drama transformation and his new charismatic character was vivid in comments of the broadcast company’s site and various forums. Both “Kim Jaejoong” and “Kim Kyung Tak” were at the top of the searches at all the main search engines. Viewers commented, “Where can I find an affectionate man like Kim Kyung Tak?”, “Men who are very hardworking are very handsome!”, “I really felt the pain of an unrecognized son, who couldn’t even call ‘father’”.

The popularity overseas is already beyond anything normal. After the airing of the first two episodes, the twitter trend list of areas including Japan, Singapore, Taiwan and Hong Kong all topped with #JJinDrjin, which proves that there were many fans who watched the drama steaming.

Furthermore, Kim Jaejoong’s participation in ‘Dr. Jin”s OST, “Living Like a Dream”, also created a huge discussion. As soon as the song was revealed last week, it was first place at Daum Music, Cy World, and after the airing of the episodes it became top search phrases at search engines such as melon, bugs, and ollehmusic.

Rooftop Prince’s Ending: Park Yoochun – Han Jimin’s Vow of Love

120525 Park Yoochun – Han Jimin’s Vow Of Love, Viewers’ “Best Ending”

The happy ending for the time-travel romance drama, SBS’s “Rooftop Prince” has earned the viewers’ praise.

Broadcast on the night of 24 May, in the last episode of “Rooftop Prince”, the mystery of the crown princess murder was solved. Buyong (Played by Han Ji Min) had replaced the crown princess (Jung Yoomi) and fell into the Lotus pond to save her beloved Crown Prince Lee Gak (Park Yoochun) from the crown princess’s plot to murder him.

(Rest of the plot is omitted)

Park Ha, who opens a fruit juice store in Seoul meets Yong Taeyong who is a customer, but does not see his face as she is troubled. Later, she discovers a postcard at her door, with the signature “ㅌㅇ” and her sketch on it. Park Ha follows the card’s invitation and goes to Namsam tower, and meets Yong Taeyong there. Taeyong asks, “Why are you so late, I have been waiting for a long time” and Park Ha asks, “Where were you? I have been here all this while” and the two hold hands, as Taeyong becomes Lee Gak, dressed in his royal robes. With the commentary saying “Even after 300 years, I will still love you” and has a happy ending.

After the drama was broadcast, viewers responded, saying “It’s a happy ending, but my heart still aches. It’s sad that we won’t be able to see this sweet couple again” “This is the most beautiful ending among the recent dramas.” “This is my dream romance, both of them are beautiful” “Rooftop Prince, even after 300 years, I will still remember you” and other praises.

Since I wasn’t able to comment much on Rooftop Prince while it was airing, I’d like to leave some final comments now that it’s finished.

Rooftop Prince is actually a good drama. I’m not saying this just because Yoochun is the lead actor but simply because I enjoyed watching it. I think it has the right mix of mystery, suspense, romance, comedy and drama. Though some episodes – in my opinion – were a bit dragging, I found myself looking forward to each episode. I credit this to my desire to know the mystery behind the murder of the Crown Princess during the Joseon time and how it is link to the characters of the modern world.

I liked Yoochun’s acting here better than his acting in his first two dramas. I came to know that Yoochun can actually act in any genre – comedy, romance, drama – and still be an effective actor. Add to that, I really like Yoochun and Han Jimin’s chemistry on screen. I found myself giggling when they’re bickering or whenever they have a romantic moment. I’d love to see their pairing on a drama again in the future.

As for the ending, I like how the mystery of the Crown Princess’ death was explained in the last episode and I’m happy that I could actually see the link of what happened to Prince Lee Gak in the modern world to what happened to Joseon 300 years ago.

However, I felt a bit disappointed of the ending. I kinda felt it was unfair for Prince Lee Gak to be left alone with no Park Ha or Bu Young to be with him after everything that he’s been through in the modern world. While on the other hand Yong Tae Yong, who only appeared in the first and the final episodes, gets to be with Park Ha. I mean, seriously, that’s unfair.

But anyway, even if I had some complaints about the ending of the Lee Gak – Park Ha couple, I can still say that I enjoyed Rooftop Prince and I highly recommend it to those who want to watch a drama with a good mix of everything. ;)
