"The Little Son of the Chaebol Family" starring Song Joong Ki and "Dark Glory" starring Song Hye Kyo have been broadcast at similar times, and they are both relatively popular, so it is inevitable that people will compare the two dramas.
I like both of them because "Descendants of the Sun" is very fond of them, so I don't mean to step on one of them, just purely express my feelings after watching the show.
First, from the perspective of domestic popularity, "Dark Glory" is higher.
The two dramas have different broadcast platforms, "Dark Glory" is a Netflix online drama, "The Little Son of a Chaebol Family" is a Taiwan drama, I don't know the perception of these two dramas in South Korea and abroad, here I will only talk about the domestic ones. After the second season of "Dark Glory" was broadcast, the topic heat and discussion degree on various media platforms were indeed higher than that of "The Little Son of the Chaebol Family", and the number of viewers and ratings on Douban can also be seen.
Second, from the perspective of plot, "The Little Son of the Chaebol Family" is better.
"The Little Son of the Chaebol Family" is a cool drama of revenge after the male protagonist is reborn, in fact, the plot itself is not new, but because it closely combines South Korea's political transformation and social changes since the 80s of the last century and large-scale business war dramas plus some internal family power struggle scenes, the plot is fuller and more interesting. But this drama was changed by the screenwriter to the ending of the original work, and it directly ended badly, belonging to high opening and low walking, resulting in a plummeting Douban score.
"Dark Glory" is also a revenge drama, but it is a story of the heroine who returned from school bullying and returned to take revenge on the perpetrator and the people next to her, although the plot is also very exciting, but the story line is relatively single, fortunately, the ending is good and there is no bad ending.
Third, from the perspective of the protagonist's acting skills, Song Huiqiao's acting skills are better.
Because the plot setting of "Dark Glory" is relatively heavy, involving a lot of dark sides of humanity, Song Huiqiao's acting skills have made a great breakthrough, and the texture has directly risen to a level. There are many old drama bones in "The Little Son of the Chaebol Family", although Song Zhongji can also be regarded as a normal play, but the overall performance is relatively dull, there is no feeling of eye-catching, but has been crushed by the old drama bones, especially by the grandfather directly killed in seconds.
After watching these two dramas, I still have the filter of "Descendants of the Sun" for the two of them, and suddenly I especially want to relive "Descendants of the Sun", how beautiful the once double-song CP is, but unfortunately it has been BE outside the play.
I wonder if it's because of good things and regrets that people always miss it?
