Woori the Virgin

I tried to calm down and take a breather before writing this, but nah I'm still angry! How they did Sung Hoon will haunt me for life! And I'm more annoyed cause I liked most of the show on its own without comparing it to the original but WHY WRITER WHY!!! First off, let's not get it twisted. Sung Hoon is innocent and not to blame for these terrible reviews, HE CAME AND DID WHAT HE HAD TO DO PERIODT 😤 He brought out a new goofy, lighthearted earnest sweetness to the original USA Rafael, like actually had Justin Baldoni shaking with how amazing he portrayed Raf. And I love og Rafael, that's bae, but Sung Hoon created a whole Korean Raphael bae and THATS HOW Y'ALL REPAY HIM!?! 😡🌋 Woori wouldn't deserve him if she was the actual Immaculada!

Secondly, who tf is Shin Dong Wook? I'm actually asking cause he seems to never have had a lead role before so putting him up against Sung Hoon literally makes no sense. For him to be a viable choice for Woori he'd have to be an actor at Sung Hoon's level like disrespect is at all levels!

Thirdly, I'm no Woori fan just like i wasn't no fan of Jane in the USA version cause she also played too much BUT DAMN the way y'all hate Im Soo Hyang I'd only wish that on my worst enemy! What did she do murder your first born? Poison your grandma like? The hate she gets reeks of the same brand of hate given to Song Hye Kyo for her acting in Now, We Are Breaking Up which to me is giving misogyny and I'm not explaining it just is lol.

Finally, lol, I actually had a lot of fun watching this for the most part! The side characters made the roles their own, living up to the originals and then some. Hong Ji Yoon's version of Petra was hilariously unhinged, (side note: I always like her in shows I wonder why she's not in more things as a lead she's so funny). The matriarchal family which is a huge thing in USA Jane the Virgin is there. Woori's mom and grandma are the cutest most loving supportive women. And when her dad joins he's great too. That's why what. They. Did. Is. UNFORGIVABLE!

Let me go rewatch the USA Jane the Virgin for the 50th time just to feel something!!!

This make no sense. That is his blood he has no other blood relative with him. He doesn't get to be with his daughter everyday or every night. He doesn't get to see all her first moments. This is wrong just wrong. She was just a surrogate she had no relationship or ties to the father. This shouldn't have ended like this at all. This is horrible and I will not watch these actors or writers again.

There were some great unexpected twists all throughout. The photography was done very well with some very tender moments. . Great job with the overall theme and plot. OST is great too. Wow! Many life stories to be told with this show-that's how life is, right? That's one of the reasons I watch KDrama. I was wondering how it would end, and have to say, with the same, even pace of the main actress. She was very well composed. I didn't expect anything more than a romcom and was pleasantly surprised. I didn't particularly like the CEOs wardrobe, nothing like the main actor in 1% - he was fabulously dressed. Grandmother scenes were poignant. I liked how they showed the cast members when they were growing up. Nicely balanced.

Korean Drama " Woori The Virgin " is the remake of the American-Latin series, giving it a Korean twist, with the Korean family dynamics, the chaebol culture, and the cheesy twists.

The drama follows loosely the original plot, with the prompt of the pregnancy taking another turn and giving the creators new ground to work on. Thus, the drama focuses more on the family values, even when it came to the villains and the big criminal case. Those family dynamics were probably what saved the drama most of the time and gave some comical relief with the side stories.

On the other hand, the love triangle was boring and tragically cheesy, with little chemistry and many cliche twists.

As for the performances, they were all great by everyone in the cast.

The cinematography also did a good job with the mood of the drama, keeping it light and fluffy.

So, overall, 3 out of 10.

I know this show is going to get slaughtered for obvious reasons but I'm so enthusiastic about it!!! It's about what she wants and the production team too! Bravo Writer Jang!!! And especially to a very good cast!!!! I really loved ep 14!!! It's beautiful and refreshing and the epicenter is the child!!! Fabulous beautiful story!!! Kamsamnida and a 9/10 for you!!!
