With the relaxation of the "Korean Restriction Order", the Chinese mainland film and television market has once again seen a boom in remakes of classic Korean dramas. These remakes of Korean dramas cover many well-known works, such as "Misheng", "Full House", "Sungkyunkwan Scandal" and "I Hear Your Voice". The craze has sparked memories of the popular Korean dramas of yesteryear, as well as widespread debate about the quality of remakes and the novelty of originality.
The remake of the TV series is highly topical because it carries the deep feelings and expectations of the majority of fans of the original work. However, high expectations can also cause a lot of pressure, and if the remake does not meet expectations, it will inevitably cause strong dissatisfaction from the audience. After the rumors of the remake of "Please Answer 1988" were announced, many voices called for "mercy" and "protection of the original work" appeared on the Internet, which shows how much the audience cherishes the original.
2. The challenge of localization adaptation The remake of "Please Answer 1988" is set in the 1997 handover of Hong Kong, and the main setting is set in Luohu District, Shenzhen. The first challenge faced by this original localization adaptation was how to properly present the 80s Korean characteristic town style and cultural elements in the original book in the Chinese Chinese context.
Localization is not only a simple change of space and time, but also a deeper integration of culture and emotion. Elements such as neighborhood relationships, family strife, and youthful memories portrayed in the original work need to find resonance in the new environment. Therefore, script creators and directors must not only be well versed in the connotation of the original work, but also have a thorough understanding of Chinese social conditions and public opinion.
3. The problem of role remodeling The characters such as Li Wenjing, Huang Miao and Xu Tao in the original book are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and have attracted much attention. When filming a new version, it is necessary to reproduce the core spirit of the original character and inject innovative elements, and the casting strategy, character interpretation strength, and character relationship shaping tricks will directly determine whether it can win the favor of the audience.
Take Li Wenjing as an example, she has a distinct and charming personality in the original book, and is loved by the audience. The TV adaptation needs to maintain this feature and try to meet the aesthetic and emotional needs of Chinese audiences. This poses a challenge for both actors and screenwriters.
Fourth, the continuation and innovation of emotional clues The multi-layered emotional depiction in the original work of "Please Answer 1988", from friends to lovers, family and social aspects are carefully handled, so that each scene touches the audience's heart. Therefore, the remake must innovate and integrate new elements on the basis of retaining the original emotional clues in order to achieve new breakthroughs.
The display of emotions needs to be delicate and sincere, and in order to meet the requirements of the remake, it is necessary to discover new emotional torrents, so that the audience can find new touching feelings in the familiar plot. Therefore, while respecting the original work, screenwriters need to be brave in innovation and bold breakthroughs.
Intercultural differences undoubtedly have an impact on remakes. How elements of Korean originals should be properly represented in the remake of the local version is a question worth further studying. Careful consideration should be given to details such as food and beverage customs, festival customs, and language expressions and values.
Cultural blending is not a simple copy, it is necessary to explore the commonalities between the two, in order to let the audience appreciate the unique cultural charm while watching the series. Therefore, in the process of adaptation, the film crew needs to continue to carry out cultural exchange and thinking activities.
6. Satisfaction and transcendence of the audience's expectations The audience's high hopes for the remake stem from their deep affection for the original. In view of this, how to achieve its own breakthrough under the premise of meeting the expectations of the public has become a challenging goal.
To meet the audience's expectations, the original work needs to be respected, and to exceed the audience's expectations, it is necessary to innovate and break through. The Genesis team should explore new perspectives and techniques in the creation, so that the adaptation can not only inherit the spirit of the original work, but also glow with unique charm.
7. The future outlook for the remake Remakes are difficult, but they also contain infinite possibilities. With continuous exploration and innovation, remakes are expected to lead the vigorous development of the mainland film and television industry.
In the future, remakes should respect the original work and emphasize localization and innovation, so as to make it closer to the audience's life and emotional attitude. At the same time, remakes need to strengthen quality control, improve creative standards, and make the work a classic reproduction and surpassing it.
8. Conclusion: Expectations and worries coexistWith the release of information about the remake of "Please Answer 1988", the topic caused an enthusiastic response among a wide audience. Everyone has different attitudes towards remakes. This diversity is showing its extraordinary appeal and challenge.
