Fantasy drama is a very common film and television drama theme in recent years, and the fantasy dramas of China and South Korea are often compared by netizens. In fact, china and South Korea have very classic fantasy dramas. South Korea has "W Two Worlds", "Ghosts", "Legend of the Blue Sea" and so on, while China has also had classic works such as "Siteng", "Douluo Continent" and "Breaking the Sky" in recent years. And which is the advantage or disadvantage of the fantasy dramas of China and South Korea? This is a matter of divergence.
Some netizens believe that South Korea's fantasy dramas are better than China's quality. They believe that Korea is very good in the modern fantasy drama area, and generally has a very exquisite worldview structure, and it will combine fantasy and romance themes. In recent years, "You from the Stars" and "Ghosts" that have exploded in China in recent years are enough to serve as examples. Some domestic dramas are relatively easy to be spit on as thunder dramas, such as Ju Jingyi's "Please Love Under the Full Moon" and so on.
Korean modern fantasy movies are also very good, such as the very special "Walking with God". And the domestic "Love Through the Millennium" is also a remake of Korean dramas, which shows that the fantasy Korean dramas are still good.
Of course, this view is not shared by everyone, and some netizens believe that China's fantasy dramas are superior to South Korean fantasy dramas. From the perspective of world view, in fact, the world view of "Siteng" is not rougher than that of Korean fantasy dramas, but it is very grand. And South Korea's fantasy dramas are considered good, in fact, because Koreans are good at shooting ambiguous and romantic atmosphere, not so much that fantasy dramas are filmed well, but rather that idol dramas are filmed well. It is not so much a fantasy drama as a dog blood love drama. And fantasy dramas such as "Star You" also have problems such as plot delays. The more novel one is "w two worlds", while other Korean fantasy dramas about ghosts and myths are actually far inferior to Chinese fantasy dramas.
More netizens believe that in fact, they think that Korean fantasy dramas are better filmed, which is a foreign filter. If we could all understand Korean, we probably wouldn't think so. I think that China's fantasy dramas are inferior to South Korea's, which is actually a manifestation of "mother tongue shame".
Some netizens pointed out that in fact, many of South Korea's fantasy dramas are "borrowed" or even "stolen" from China. The themes of many fantasy dramas in Korea are actually related to Chinese mythology. For example, "Ghosts" tells the story of black impermanence and wild ghosts, and "The Legend of the Nine-tailed Fox", which tells the story of fox spirits, these stories seem to see some shadows in "Liaozhai". The role of Li Dongxu's emissaries in "Ghosts" is just black and white impermanence in China. And "Druna Hotel" has a "pawnshop number eight" feeling. "Flower Travels" is based on China's "Journey to the West", telling the story of Sun Wukong, the great saint of Qitian, who has a deadly decadent beauty, and Chen Shanmei, a Sanzang mage with a unique worldly nature.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of Chinese and Korean fantasy dramas? Different people may have different answers in their minds. But what is certain is that China's fantasy dramas are getting better and better now, and I believe that there will be more novel themes of fantasy dramas in the future.
