![]() ![]() Interacting with one of the kids (the child spirit’s brother) however brings back memories of Seon Mi as a kid, and this creates intense heart pain for Oh Gong. We see that post-Dragon, Oh Gong has completely forgotten everything that has happened, including Seon Mi. Ma Wang has such a greasy feel when he smiles so eerily sometimes! Also, question – how does he send the kids in? I thought people can only enter Suremdong when Oh Gong wants to? ![]() However, he refuses to step out of Suremdong and Ma Wang thus had to keep sending in people in to lure him out – like this bunch of kids that he’s talking to. While he narrates the story, we see that Oh Gong didn’t die, and is actually being nurtured back to health slowly by those around him. He sighed that the monkey had his real punishment now and is being sad and lonely somewhere. Why? “Because humans behave differently before and after they pooped.” HAHA Ma Wang. They locked him up in the Five Elements Mountain and he was then forgotten by the humans. In order to placate him, the Heavens made him into a deity, but they later punished him because he took a pillar from the heavenly palace to block the fire in the rocky mountains, something which scared the humans. The episode starts off with a tribute to the classic, where Ma Wang tells the kids (Han Joo’s children) the story of a monkey born from stone who had a bad temper. And if the show can equal the production quality of Goblin, all the better! I don’t know about everyone else, but I am in eager anticipation of A Korean Odyssey’s debut.įor those a little unsure about watching a foreign show with subtitles, go binge The Master’s Sun ahead of time and see if that will open your mind.HOW CAN IT ALL END SO QUICKLY I NEED MORE SON OH GONG. ![]() The Hong Sisters can also be pretty darn funny. The Master’s Sun remains one of my favorite shows of all time because the mythology and romance were just so amazing. And then they can head over to DramaFever and Viki for a larger collection of Asian Dramas to choose from.Īs for A Korean Oddysey, I am so excited that the Hong Sisters are bringing us another romantic fantasy. Hopefully, this will pave the way for more people to cross paths with global shows and the romantic awesomeness of K-dramas. Paying attention to Korean Dramas is a smart move. They understand that a variety of shows and not just Emmy darlings (sometimes, you just want to watch Fuller House) invites a wider interest in those who want to pay monthly for the increasing competition of streaming services. ![]() And in the hands of the Hong Sisters, I couldn’t be more thrilled. A Korean Odyssey sounds like a paranormal romance about demons and a love triangle. While there isn’t a lot known about the plot, clues have arisen on the Wikipedia page with character descriptions. AsianWiki gives us an ambiguous plot: “In 2017, Son O-Gong and King Wooma (Cha Seung-Won) are in conflict with each other and they look for a true light in a dark world where evils exists everywhere.” Of course, romance soon enters into the picture! RELATED | THE MASTER’S SUN REVIEW – THE MOST ROMANTIC SHOW OF ALL TIME? The Hong Sisters who brought us the ever so swoony and romantic The Master’s Sun takes the classic novel and puts a modern romantic fantasy twist on it. The series stars Lee Seung-Gi ( My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox), Cha Seung-Won ( The Greatest Love), and Oh Yeon-Seo ( My Sassy Girl). If you don’t want to wait for the Netflix premiere, you can also watch the series on Viki starting December 23rd. But in Korea, A Korean Odyssey begins on Decemon tvN. The US premiere on Netflix is still unknown. It’s directed by the director of the adorable romantic comedy, The Greatest Love, written by the talented Hong Sisters (just go watch The Master’s Sun), and comes from the studio (Studio Dragon) that brought us the epic series, Goblin, I’m not sure where the show can go wrong. A Korean Odyssey has quite the background too. Netflix has picked up a Korean series based on the 16th-century classic Chinese novel Journey to the West by Xi You Ji. ![]()
