Well, the first parallel worlds drama of 2020 has been mostly a dud, though it could revive and redeem itself with the final few episodes. It’s time to look ahead and the second such themed drama arrives in July on cable network OCN with Train. It was originally going to star Kim Jae Wook but he passed so the leading man is Yoon Shi Yoon and I loved both actors so it’s a fair swap. I remain allergic to leading lady Kyung Soo Jin, sorry it all stems from Secret Love Affair and I’ve avoided her dramas since, and she was also annoying as the younger Son Ye Jin in Shark and the young Lee Bo Young in Equator Man. With that said, I really love the teaser trailer and do want to see what another screenwriter does with the parallel worlds conceit so I’m definitely checking this out and maybe she’ll surprise me or my allergy to her is gone.
Teaser for Train:
parallel worlds are really hard to deliver flawlessly to screen. if drama fails to sense the worlds, audience feel like being fooled. not to mention they have eagle eyes. I think the scriptwriter and pd of a drama with this genre should be very careful about details so that there wouldnt be any conflicts in the show.
I may check this one out and give it a try.
Good Luck!!!
Oh no, why you’ve avoided her dramas? Meloholic was good, I mean, its OST.
I’m the opposite too as I rather enjoyed Kyung Soo Jin’s Meloholic. A pity Joseon Survival Period was a mess, else I think she’s rather decent.
