I just wrote an article last month saying that there are so many plagiarized dramas. Can June be called Korean drama plagiarism month? , I didn’t expect that when I watched the first domestic variety show this year in July, it was a Korean variety show.

Just like the screenwriters of Korean dramas squatting on Chinese TV dramas, mainland variety show practitioners probably learn (chao) and practice (xi) Korean variety shows without skipping an episode every day.

This mainland variety show that makes me shake my head and sigh is "Landing in Yuanyuzhou" produced by Goose Factory on June 30. The object of my (chao) tribute (xi) is the variety show "New World: Virtual Currency Hegemony" broadcast by Netflix last year. War" (hereinafter referred to as the New World).

The variety show framework cannot be said to be completely similar, it can only be said to be exactly the same

First, let’s take a look at the framework of the Netflix Korean drama “New World: Battle for Virtual Currency”.

invited 2 women and 4 men, a total of 6 residents, to the island that Netflix invested heavily in building. Each person is assigned a room built according to their dreams. Life on the island requires you to earn virtual currency to live. If there is any remaining virtual currency in the end, it can be exchanged for real currency and used back in reality. In the first episode of

, the program team has prepared a lot of activities for everyone. You can get treasure boxes while playing. The treasure boxes can increase the value of everyone's virtual currency, so the first episode focuses on finding the treasure box and 6 people start a battle of wits and courage.

The first season of this variety show has a total of 8 episodes. The biggest attraction is:

. Netflix is ​​really luxurious. Every guest’s house on the island is absolutely super five-star luxury. Every program and facility on the island can be seen to be genuine. Materials cost a lot of money.

. The idea of ​​the game is indeed very interesting. It is equivalent to the real-life version of Monopoly. The creativity of Korean original variety shows has always been the best in Asia.

. The six guests who participated in the game had a strong sense of immersion. After all, many artists in South Korea make a living by running variety shows, and performing variety shows is their career.

Next let’s take a look at Goose’s “Landing on Yuanyu Island”.

is the same as "New World", creating a game place on a small island;

is also like "New World", inviting a total of 6 guests, 2 women and 4 men to play;

is also like "New World" Same, a virtual currency is popular on the island;

And the same as "New World", the first episode is to find the cat (bao) bowl (xiang) on ​​the island, and if you find it, you will get a monetary reward;

Then, everyone began to challenge their wits and courage for this currency. How about

? Is

the same recipe? Are

exactly the same framework? Does

have exactly the same guest structure?

What should I say?

Could it be that because Korean dramas often plagiarize us, mainland variety shows invite themselves to fight and fight back with chao xi? Or do domestic entertainment variety shows think that people who watch Korean variety shows will despise domestic entertainment variety shows, so Chao Xi will not be discovered?

If there is any difference, "Landing in Yuanyuzhou" is a low-end version of "New World"

There must be many fans of idols who will come to wash their hands. I have already expected this. Actually, I don’t think the two variety shows are exactly the same.

For example, at the beginning of Netflix's "New World: Cryptocurrency Contest", 6 guests checked in. This is one of the highlights of the variety show itself, allowing everyone to live in their dream house. Each house is a villa level. The program team allows players to live there for free.

However, "Landing in Yuanyuzhou" directly gave a few ordinary B&Bs . It cannot be said that they have no characteristics. It can also be said that they are fresh and refreshing. When I travel on a budget, it is okay to live in that kind of house, but compared with Han Zong , really unremarkable. The grade of the low-end version is instantly determined.

For another example, in terms of the variety show sense of several players, Korean variety shows are considered the best.

The most eye-catching one is naturally the prince of variety show, singing, film and television, Lee Seung Gi. He has been nominated for various awards many times as a variety show. After retiring from the army, he once again shined in Korean dramas with "家Master一一". The Korean drama " peeks into " created a suspenseful trend.

Generally speaking, there are very few people who like Korean variety shows who don’t watch variety shows starring celebrities like Lee Seung Gi. Are you too bold to chao xi the variety shows he stars in? It seems that as long as there is no shame, mainland variety shows can go to heaven.

On the other hand, there are 6 players in "Landing on Yuanyuzhou". None of them have as much influence in domestic entertainment as Lee Seung-gi does in Korean variety shows. Since they have copied the framework of Korean variety shows, they should at least find a few. What a distinguished guest! If you copy them, you will see pictures of tigers and dogs.

But I would like to add that Zhang Zixian’s acting skills in " Rebel " are indeed amazing. I don’t know why he is so keen on doing variety shows recently. If he can perform more good dramas with such good acting skills, it will definitely be a welfare for the audience. .

Of course, there is a guest who I feel is ok. That is, Yang surpasses .

Her role of chao xi is obviously the benchmark for Han Zong's Cao Baoer.

From the perspective of beautiful characters, this is okay. Cao Baoer is also famous in Korea for her beauty, and Yang Chaoyue's acting skills are also indescribable. The two people have very similar personalities.

Therefore, the 6 people gathered together basically have no sense of variety shows. Everyone felt confused after watching the first episode. I guess Chao Xi was the fault of the program team, and the 6 guests were not shown the original version of " "New World", so everyone didn't know how to act.

is certainly not without merit. Yang Chaoyue is very beautiful and behaves very carefree. Li Dan has always maintained his very sad personality. These two people are the most obvious characteristics of the first episode.

For example, "Landing in Yuanyuzhou" still adds some original elements on the basis of "New World". These original elements mainly add a piece of knowledge about investment and financial management and the intellectual problem of finding a cat (bao) bowl (xiang). At the end, an expert is found to explain an economic knowledge to everyone.

This change is a bit nondescript. Think about it, people who watch Yang Chaoyue and Bai Jingting, do they watch variety shows to learn economics knowledge? Didn't they come to see how their sister and brother conquered the world with their beauty? Could it be that people who have watched "The New World" wouldn't be able to recognize it if it is grafted with an economic thread?

In short, whether it is a Korean drama plagiarizing us or domestic entertainment plagiarizing a Korean variety show, it is shameful. But what’s even more sad is that it’s useless even if we shout, the plagiarism will always continue.

Dear, tell me, how can we stop this wrong behavior from becoming popular in the Chinese and Korean entertainment circles?
