Jeong Nyeon

Kim Taeri once again shows her quality, Establishing herself as an actress whose NEVER FAIL DRAMA.

Since the Trailer, Jeongnyeon has radiated the aura of a MASTERPIECE.

And sure enough After the first episode aired, Jeongnyeon: The Star is Born seemed to be a magnet to watch it again and again while waiting for the next episode.

Kim Taeri's sing Pansori is amazing, at first I thought it was lipsync, but it turns out I was wrong, KIM TAERI SINGS ALL THAT SONGS WITH HER OWN VOICE! It was proven after I watched the behind-the-scenes video of making this drama. I also heard that she studied and practiced for 3 years to sing Pansori, also practiced dancing, even visit Mokpo to learn dialects in preparation for her role as a shabby village girl like a potato who dreams of becoming a Shining Star "Prince" in new world named Yeosong Gukgeuk.

It's really amazing, this is a different level of hard work.

I enjoyed every single performance in this drama. I don't understand why there are haters who write bad reviews about this drama, and it seems like they are writing nonsense without watching the drama. I was also surprised, when I saw the bad ratings in each episode, it turned out that many of them came from South Korea, which is where this drama originated. Uniquely, this drama shows Korean culture to the world, Even introducing the Korean Cultural Heritage recognized by UNESCO, namely Pansori, to the world very well. But Koreans who give it bad ratings as if it just like doesn't respect their own culture. Or is it because this is a drama with a female narrative? So the Korean people who are known for their patriarchy don't like it?

By the way this is a Good Drama from A to Z, its well made.

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.

My first impression when I was about to watch it was "ah this looks like a boring drama" but I heard it was popular in Korea, so I tried 1 episode. Surprisingly, the drama turned out to be interesting, so I couldn't help but watch it until the end.

I feel like even 12 episodes isn't enough, I want more. I'm afraid to say it, but this is the best Kdrama of 2024. This is the first time I've watched a drama that includes a culture content that seems boring but turns out to be really fun even make me watched Gukgeuk on Youtube. If I ever get a chance to go to Korea, Of course I would pay any amount to watch a Gukgeuk performance live, just like what i saw at the drama.

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.
