I have been having this debate with myself and not sure what I will do. Because once I start, I will be committed to the whole duration which will take up substantially more of my time and energy. Do I have the stamina for this, I wonder.
When Park Sihoo-ssi’s drama “Local Hero” (“Neighborhood Hero”) was first aired on OCN in Korea, I did previews and reviews of every episode. In addition, I also covered many different aspects of how I saw the drama, the characters, the plots and the different themes. I thought this would give deeper insights and make the drama more interesting for viewers. Of course, this also gave me the opportunity to think deeper and analyse the different themes presented by the drama.
It was gruelling, hard work! 16 episodes over eight weeks. Every weekend, while I enjoyed watching Park Sihoo-ssi’s Baek Siyoon in action, I also had to quickly put on my thinking cap to come up with a topic to write immediately after the broadcast for posting the next day. As the drama had a late airtime of 11 pm Korean time, by the time I finish watching and writing, it was into the wee hours of the next morning! Very tiring over two consecutive nights, especially on Mondays when I have to go to work early in the morning!
Now with Park Sihoo-ssi’s new drama “My Golden Life” already on air, I have this debate with myself. Do I want to do again what I did for “Local Hero”? This time, it will be tougher! 50 episodes, if not more. Half a year of intense work and commitment, leaving me barely time for anything else? As it is, my plate is pretty crowded.
And I know myself well. I don’t go for half measures and I don’t cut corners. Whatever I do, I will have to go the full mile and according to standards I set for myself. And as always, everything from scratch, everything on my own. Even thinking about it makes me tired already…but it also perks me up as it will make the drama even more interesting as I get a chance to delve deeper than just watching superficially. I like the exhilarating feeling!
Should I or should I not?
It is not as if someone asked me to do it or that any one might even think what I do of any value. Just my usual blogging in sharing my thoughts and views. And is Park Sihoo-ssi really worth all this effort?
Hmmm…I don’t know!
辩论
我一直在跟自己进行辩论,不知道怎么做。因为一旦开始,将会致力于整段时间,大大增加我投入的时间和精力。自己也不知道,究竟是否有这样的耐力。
当施厚君的电视剧“小区英雄”(“邻家英雄”)首次在韩国的OCN台播出时,每一集我都写了预览和评论。此外,我还分享了自己对电视剧的人物,剧情和不同的主题等的看法。我认为这更深入的洞察力,可以让观众对这剧更有趣。当然,也让我有机会深入思考,分析电视剧的不同主题。
这是艰苦,辛勤的工作!16集, 8 个星期时间。每个周末,看完我最喜欢的演员施厚君饰演的白时允的精彩演出后,还要立即动脑筋想第二天要发的文章的内容,然后熬夜的写出。由于电视剧播放的时间较晚,在韩国晚上11点,当我看完电视剧,写完文章时,已经是第二天凌晨了!连两夜的不足睡眠,是特别疲劳,尤其是星期一早必须上班!
现在,随着施厚君的新电视剧“我黄金光辉的人生”的播出,我在和自己进行辩论。是否跟“小区英雄”一样做呢?这一次,会更艰难! 至少50集,半年的激烈投入和承诺,几乎再也没有时间去做别的事情。我的盘子现在都已经好拥挤了。
我非常了解自己。我不是一个做事可以随便半途而废的人,也不会接受不完善的效果。无论做什么,都必须按照自己设定的标准,全力以赴。一如既往,从零开始,一切都会是自己的创作。想想要半年的劳力,都感到累了…但也感到兴奋,因为这么去研究,可以感觉到电视剧更有趣,更深入有深度,而不仅是看表面。
我应该还是不应该呢?
做不做都是自愿,没有人要求我这么做,也未必有人会认为我所做的有什么价值。是自己平日的博客分享想法和观点罢了。而施厚君真的值得我这么费劲吗?
嗯…我不知道!

#朴施厚# #我黃金光輝的人生# 很欣賞姐姐和各位姐妹們對施厚的用心和真誠的付出.所以無論姐姐做什麼樣的決定,我們都一定會支持你.只希望不要太累,盡力量就可以了.姐姐加油,我們也要繼續努力,用自己的方法去守護喜愛的男神喲!
两年多来,从每日的博文中可以看出N姐是思维敏捷目光敏锐之人,但是目前的网站文章类型有很大的随机性和灵活性,往往会跟随施厚的行程做零时调整,文章可长可短但信息量大,即使这样也已能体会到背后的辛苦。若要写深度剧评,尤其要在剧集播出的当天晚上写出,我想是不可取的。虽说是用来“消遣”的轻松家庭剧,但对韩国国情社会状况的信息涵盖量是非常广泛的,背后可引发思考的东西很多,仓促写就无疑会影响文章的深度和剧评质量。所以我建议每周五晚写就周六上午交稿发出,既能让观剧者再次回味上周的剧情有利晚上看新一集,也能让自己有更多深入思考的时间,不致影响体力。无论如何,总是期待N姐的新视角剧评,相信一定会让我们从中受益的(请原谅我的自私自利^^)
文章分享的同时,作者的心深处,应该是有答案了吧!没有人,比我们自己更加了解自身的感知!在限定的条件下,以最顺其自然的节奏,带进日常的生活里,就是最佳的感觉和最强的能力!时间看似漫长,未知汹涌,考验耐心的时刻,牢牢抓住能量源的,永远都是自己的❤!尘土,轻轻拂去,心灵,更上一层的高度!计划的未来里,施厚君是重要的一部分,这样的感觉下,请一定不要吝啬自己的想法,语言,文采!”千金难买,一颗化繁为简,惦记的心!”
hello ! .listen to your heart. if one night you want to share a little pearl … do it! if other nights, it does not speak to you … share us what has come to you throughout the week. cool ! the most important it’s to have fun and pleasure for you. to enjoy the joy of seeing psh play
Nance, I don’t think it is the question wbether PSH is worth it or not. You should not pressure yourself, because it may kill all creativity as well. First of all, you must enjoy watching the drama like all of us. Do you want to share a deeper thought on a particular episode immediately after watching? That’s fine and appreciated. Don’t tie yourself and leave room for flexibility. I agree with Claudie on the blog: listen to and follow your heart!
“Can the leopard change his spots?”This proverbial question is quering the ability of any person or creature to change his inner being. And I think Nance, you are the person who can’t change your inner being, as you are aslo a Scorpion too. You are a strong and determined woman, who although busy with your job, you always think of Park Si Hoo, of his acting , of his dramas, etc. So, you’ll always share us your thoughts and views about him, although this endeavour will exhaust you. Because you feel that everything it’s worth doing. that “his dramas become more interesting”. “No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may.We ourselves must walk the path.”[Buddha]. So , Nance ,if you think Park SI Hoo is really worth of your big effort, then do it . We’ll be the beneficiaries too.
I’d love to read the analyzes you make about the drama. They will are ample, full of substance and enlightening, like always. That’s why I worry about you reading this article today, because it’s like a signal that you want to „take the plunge” and go at a rhythm that exhausts you and „it can kill all creativity as well” as Wilma said. We do not want that dear “scorpion”. And PSH does not want a fan with eyebrows. Claudie pointed out the feelings that animate us and link us to this blog: fun, pleasure, joy. And love. And then, why the final question? I do not understand it.
