In the past six months, the end of the Korean drama "Spying" has caused many Korean drama fans to have a shortage of dramas. Although "I Am a Relic Organizer" has attracted the attention of many viewers after the broadcast of this period, because this drama is too easy to cry, even if the drama is excellent, many people will avoid talking about it.
In the past few months, many of the series produced in South Korea have not been highly praised. "Penthouse 3" has turned the audience from surprises in the second season to season 3 due to its tone-turning routine.
Although there are excellent works like "The Wise Doctor Life 2" to resist quality, it is only a few of them after all. This intermittent rhythm of watching dramas has been launched with the new drama being launched with the Song Ji Hyo leading the new drama, which has immediately made the audience regain its spirit.
Then let’s follow the plot to take a look at this latest fantasy Korean drama starring Song Ji Hyo
"Come to the Witch's Cafeteria"-2021-7-16
The drama is starring Song Ji Hyo, Nan Ji Hyo and Cai Zhongxie;
The plot mainly tells the story of the dish made by the witch to humans who need to make wishes. This kind of dish is the food that can achieve a wish, and if you want to achieve a wish in this way, you have to pay the corresponding price, even the soul.
After the opening of the show, a man who failed in business sat at the dining table and talked about his experience. Because of the failure of business, he owed a huge sum of money, which caused his wife and children to be implicated and wanted to pay off their debts through this wish.
His wish is to win a "Lotto Award"!
The next day, with the announcement of the lottery results of the "Lotto Award" in the dirty hut, he indeed won the prize, but when he received the prize, the first thing he had to do was bet!
But he was about to set off, but he found that his eyes were full of no see. It turned out that this was the witch's cooking, the man got the wish that had been realized, and the witch also got his eyes. A start like
seems a bit old-fashioned, but Korean dramas never play by routines. And after this incident, the witch closed the cafeteria and prepared to go to a child, but after going there, something unpredictable would happen.
Speaking of children, the camera immediately pointed at two people;
One is a workplace woman Zheng Zhen (played by Nam Ji-hyun), who not only has to drink with her leader every day, but also has to work overtime with high intensity. Even if these are done, they will inevitably be criticized by the leader.
For the pressure of the workplace, this seems to be something that every workplace person needs to bear, but because he was pulled by the leader in a drink, he happened to be discovered by his leader's wife, and the result was that she was fired, and helplessness came to her.
What's even worse is that because her mother knew she was fired, she took out the "coffin book" to invest in a fast food restaurant for her, but she was cheated of 300 million won. Zheng Zhen called the police and found a lawyer to try to get her money back fairly, but unfortunately she was refuted one by one.
At this time, she really felt despair, and there was a strong sense of hatred.
When she was in despair, the witch appeared in her fast food restaurant and gave her a chance to make a wish, the price was to use this fast food restaurant to pay for it.
Zheng Zhen, who was blinded by hatred, made a wish for revenge in a confused manner and signed a contract with the witch, and finally ate the "revenge blood steak" made by the witch.
The way to revenge is to kill the other party with a roomful of mice. Although this paragraph is not clearly described, it is also creepy in the only clip.
Speaking of creepy, Zheng Zhen often has nightmares after making a wish. It doesn’t matter if she has nightmares, but the important thing is that the high-energy lens suddenly arrives, making people stand upright.
Another one is Li Jiyong (played by Cai Zhongxie), a student who was admitted to the university. He was forced to commit suicide due to campus bullying. Due to the timely call from his classmates, he attempted suicide.
When she walked home, she found the "Witch Canteen". After entering, he was also ready to make a wish, but was blocked by Zheng Zhen because she knew that she would pay the price and would often have nightmares.
However, blocking is invalid. Li Jiyong still made a wish, and the plot did not introduce his wish, but hid it as a secret.
The suspense elements of Korean dramas are now omnipresent. Whether it is a sweet pet drama or a workplace drama, the audience must guess it.
Judging from the plots of the first two episodes, there are scenes that are extremely terrifying, plots that Korea likes to explore human nature, suspenseful colors that it has been more popular in the past two years, and of course, Song Ji Hyo's beauty in the prosperous era.
mentioned "beautiful beauty in the ages". In the play, she played a witch. In addition to being able to use magic, she also had a rich "queen style". She could open up her aura while raising her hands and feet, making netizens call out: "So cool, so cool";
In addition to "queen style", there is also a kind of arrogant style that despises everything. This makes people easily think of "Sito" which became popular on the Internet this year. Jing Tian played "Arrogant Vine" in it was rumored to be a good story. I wonder if Song Ji Hyo can "take over" in South Korea!
This fantasy drama maintains the Korean light comedy unique to Korean dramas. The incisive plots always make people laugh unintentionally and are worthy of fun.
For example, representative Wu came to send a gift for the "Witch Canteen" to relocate, a pot of mandra grass and a broom. When Zheng Zhen picked up the broom, she thought the witch would fly by this, but the witch stared at her and told her, "This is just for cleaning" !
When the witch was making food for Li Jiyong, she needed a leaf of Mandela grass. When Zheng Zhen was taking the leaves, the leaves of Mandela grass were red and shouted "It hurts and hurts". Zheng Zhen and Li Jiyong were so scared that they retreated repeatedly, and the scene was also full of joy.
In addition to the high-quality plot, the actors also complement the roles in terms of acting skills. The witch played by Song Ji Hyo has a feeling of being both good and evil;
When evil, it can be said that it is very substitutable in the control of expressions, but because of its beauty, this "evil" will be deducted some points;
In short, the plot does not look new, and it is a bit similar to our TV series "Pawnshop No. 8", but the core of the story is different and the expression is completely different.
In fact, "Come to the Witch Cafeteria" also shows that it has put in effort in the plot, corresponding to the current hot topics to process it, focusing on the difficulties of working women and campus bullying incidents, and using fantasy dramas to express dissatisfaction with the current situation.
then transforms the details in the event into metaphors to express their views, which is also the result of Korean dramas' patterning in recent years.
Although the script is relatively patterned, the actors' acting skills have made very good expressions, and they have the sense of déjà vu in the picture texture, special effects and transition shots. As an audience, there is still no resistance to such carefully produced Korean dramas.
