Jeong Nyeon

If I wanted to live in a TV series, I wanted to live in this TV series, in this era. There are very few works that convey their own culture by endearing it to other cultures. They succeeded. Maybe the first 6 episodes of the mother character could have been conveyed better. It has its shortcomings, but it is a really difficult job... It is difficult to tell two intertwined stories... If the theater scenes were a little more meaningful, if there was integrity there, it would be a highly lasting work. But still, his originality and acting deserve praise. The television circuit could have been extended a little longer, but they wanted to focus on the stage. But the main character's outbursts are on point... We want it to be successful overall. The art design is beautiful...there is effort and effort.

A delightful intro to a form of theater new to me, and it's addictive. My next question is where do I find more of it to watch from here in New England ... and with subtitles.

My major beef is that there wasn't more of the actual Pansori performances in the early segments, although I understand that would've disrupted the narrative.

However, even though this is a Disney-esque movie about a talented teen who bridges adversities into success, this production goes far deeper into performance, and performance preparation, than most such movies, and I am grateful for that.

The personal story at the heart of the narrative is good enough, and the performances keep the story affecting. Notwithstanding the previous reviewer's unaccountable grumpiness, the motives of the key characters are transparent. This is a genre movie (Disney again) but the historical setting and Pansori subject matter elevate it; the performances and story keep your interest with a bit of acceptable melodrama along the way.

Another masterpiece of Kim Taeri. So short yet so meaningful drama. All my emotion released to this drama Happiness,Anger,Sadness,being inlove and heartbreak. The acting of all the cast is a must see specially Kim Taeri. The best Actress for me she is so brave to do this role. A must see drama im so inlove with jeongnyeon and this is not an ordinary drama no doubt Kim Taeri choose this drama to portray because she didn't choose a role that easy to do she choose something that challenge her and this is the perfect role for her. Her acting was incredible I hope she can get another baeksang for this drama she deserved it for than anyone else.

Having been a casual fan of Korean dramas for several decades now, I'd venture to guess this Korean drama is a top contender in terms of artistic quality and storytelling for 2024. Regardless of where it ranks in your personal list, it is undoubtedly brilliant television! It is remarkably executed with superb acting, beautiful cinematography and set design, and thoughtful portrayal of delicate historical material.

The show brings the traditional art of pansori to life, highlighting its lyrical beauty and poignant roots. As usual, Kim Taeri does no wrong, pouring her heart and soul into every scene.

I also cannot stop singing praises about the depth of the story. It includes elements of coming-of-age and chasing your dreams, mystery, friendship and rivalry, family relationships, and more. I'm grateful for this vivid celebration of pansori's art and emotions, brought masterfully to the screen with humor and heart.

I've watched a lot of Korean dramas, but I've never been interested in historical dramas other than Kingdom, but I tried watching Jeongnyeon because of Kim Taeri from 2521, and i never thought i would be interested in Pansori and Korean traditional theater after hearing the actors sing it and perform it on stage in a drama scene. I even search and watched Gukgeuk Show on Youtube. I also wish that if I visit Korea I will have the opportunity to watch Gukgeuk's performance live. And visit the village where Jeongnyeon comes from. I heard this drama is from Webtoon, I want to read it but unfortunately it is not available internationally.
