If the delicate picture, rich colors, let "the witch's condition." shows the charm of autumn and winter, then the wonderful performance of the actors in the play makes "the condition of the witch." It has been praised in word-of-mouth.
The two protagonists in particular, coupled with the acting skills of Mr. Gao Douxin, made all film critics shine. Gao Douxin's mother. Later, he won most of the praise, and played the role of a mother's intertwined family affection and love for her son vividly, which was responded to by many mothers, and the teacher played by Son Xiaoyizhen and the student played by Lee Joon-yi all bloomed with unparalleled brilliance. Makes the whole character plump and vivid, and almost all film critics are full of praise.
Many comments did not expect that Lee Joon-yi's progress was so obvious that it was enough to surprise everyone. At. The Witch's condition. Middle. Lee Joon-yi and Son Ye-jin. Even when playing against Gao Douxin, he did not fall behind at all, showing the charm of the actor Xiaoguang to the fullest. plus the brilliance of the supporting actors. makes the plot, which is already full of conflict and tension, even more exciting.
Compared to the Japanese original. South Korea's filming this time added a lot of details, fleshing out the two characters of Xiaoguang and Unknown a lot.
A character in any TV series. To be loved. It has to be flesh and blood to make people feel the authenticity of the character. The Japanese version is a classic. But after all, there are only eleven episodes, and while the plot is compact, it still lacks some extensions. This time the Korean version. Prepare to shoot sixteen episodes, while the length is extended. There are also more opportunities to show the details of each character. For example, the number of scenes in the school has increased, which makes Han Xiaozhu and Liu Yaren have a lot more lines. Liu Yaren even had a few separate scenes with Lee Joon-yi. There are also more opportunities to shine on the lens. For example, there are many scenes in the hospital, which exudes the charm of Gao Douxin, an old drama bone, and the love of the mother played by Gao Douxin for her son. For the love of the doctor in the hospital. Arm this mother one by one.
Although the plot is elongated, these Wu Xiuyan obviously grasp the rhythm very skillfully. did not fall into the situation of procrastination that Korean dramas have always been criticized. In the grasp of the plot. Wu Xiuyan did not think alone, but discussed with each character in the play to explore the potential charm of each character. In addition to Gao Douxin. Lee Joon-yi is actually the actor who has contributed the most. In terms of the grasp of the role of Xiaoguang. Lee Joon-yi has more and more opinions of his own. The originally slightly thin character, after adding a few scenes, gradually plumped up the role of Xiaoguang.
With the advancement of Canqing, the rhythm has been maintained very well, and the audience can't stop watching. This makes "The Witch's Condition" a rare excellent script in recent years, with a clear framework, full content, vivid characters, and a repeating plot. The pace of advancement is reasonable.
With the hit of the TV series, what Lin Xiyuan and Li Zhunyi were worried about, what the team TV station was worried about, and what the crew was worried about finally became a reality. This is a TV series about the love between teachers and students. Teacher-student love is a taboo topic in society. Morally speaking. It is forbidden love. The love affair between a male teacher and a female student is a taboo, and the love between a female teacher and a male student is another taboo. It's not just about puppy love. It is also a love affair between adults and minors, between teachers and students, and between teachers and students. Naturally. A trend has formed in the whole society, and the comments condemning it are constantly heard and frequently seen in the newspapers. For social conservatives. This TV series should be banned. In the TV series. The teacher-student relationship is filmed with a supportive attitude, which will definitely have a negative impact on society. Let alone. Now that the ratings of the TV series are so high, they have broken through the gem. For the younger generation, the potential negative impact is even greater. At the beginning of the first episode, Xiaoguang skips class and encourages the unknown as a teacher to skip class together, which in itself is against morality. Skipping a textbook is behavior that should not be supported. But the TV series filmed the act of skipping class as "chasing freedom." behavior, beautifying truancy. The conservatives of society, from this time on, have already put the "witch's condition." As a negative teaching material, it was strongly criticized.
The next few episodes, almost every plot of every episode, became a representative of rebellion. Conservatives have put the "witch's condition." Small as a target, concentrate all firepower to attack. Especially, in the fifth episode, it reached a peak, and the unknown and Xiaoguang kissed unlovingly, which was the first kiss of two people, with tears and a touching first kiss. But in the eyes of social conservatives. This is a complete rebellion. Teacher-student love is taboo, and puppy love is not allowed. Minors should not be exposed to "kissing". When the fifth episode aired, the condemnation of the TV series reached a new level. At this moment, the conditions of the witch have become a social phenomenon out of the category of a TV series.
After the end of the sixth episode. A statement appeared in the country's largest newspaper, the Chosun Ilbo. A joint statement from several civil society groups. Zhao TV was asked to stop broadcasting "The Witch's Condition" because the show was not only celebrating the teacher-student love that should have been banned. And it has gone out of the general category, and if it continues like this, it will cause serious harm to society and even ruin the country. In the statement. It is also mentioned that "if my child is in love with a teacher." eloped, or did something other than morality, will the small TV station or crew be responsible for us? This statement has set off a lot of indignation in the society, and the attention to the social phenomenon of stopping the "witch's condition" from crying continues to be high
There are already sociologists who have written articles commenting on the "conditions of witches" and commenting on this social phenomenon. Analyze the possible impact of TV dramas from positive and negative aspects, as well as the conditions of society for "witches". The reason for such a large recall. In the opinion of sociologists. Korean dramas have always been short of themes for parents, but they lack publicity in terms of socially sensitive themes. For example, in Japan, China, the United States, and Europe, TV dramas will all involve the life reality of the moral bottom line, and will discuss and explain the phenomenon. This not only makes TV dramas closer to life, but also becomes part of a social phenomenon. But South Korea has not done much in this regard. Apparently. This time, the "witch's condition" set off a shocking wave. It has led to a discussion in the whole society.
With opposing voices, there are naturally approving voices. Voices from a largely sane audience, sneering at conservatives. The phenomenon of teacher-student love is indeed wrong. But society has always existed, and it doesn't mean that if it is not filmed on TV series, it will not exist. The conservatives' remarks are obviously idealistic, believing that without the "conditions of witches", there will be no teacher-student love. Apparently. Conservatives try to blame the origin of the birth of "teacher-student love" on this "all evil" TV series.
The TV series is beautifying this love, but at the same time, it is also seriously portraying social reality. For example, after Unknown and Xiaoguang went out on a date together. The mother couldn't bear this fact, so she chose to call the police and complained that she had abducted her minor son Xiaoguang. In the end, the unknown was taken away by the police and spent the night in prison. This is also a social reality.
On the contrary, the pro-voters believe that through TV dramas, the majority of teenagers can correctly understand the cruelty of reality. At the same time, new issues are raised for the education of parents and schools.
In the play. I don't know what the role of this teacher is, but it reflects more than just the helplessness of people in the workplace. There are also various problems with schooling. Different from the Japanese version, the Korean version reflects the many shortcomings of Korean schools and education through the unknown and Xiaoguang's life at school, such as the bad phenomenon of classmates collectively rejecting students, the fact of classmate violence, etc., which is a fact that Lee Joon-yi learned through Goo Hara, and suggested that Oh so-yeon be added to the script, which also caused a strong response. It seems that the problem of school violence in South Korea has been around for a long time and has been widely resonated. Another example is the shortcomings of the education system, and so on. The TV series' true portrayal of reality has instead become a wake-up call, allowing the audience to have a new understanding of social phenomena.
In the eyes of the pro-advocates, the "witch's condition" is not only not wrong. And it's good. TV series need such a bloody theme. to stimulate some society this Tan stagnant.
Change is needed not only by everyone, but by society as a whole. The theme of "The Witch's Condition" is the same for everyone. Even in the eyes of some politicians, TV dramas can also become their campaign slogan, "change is the only constant, and Korean society needs to change".
The fierce confrontation between the conservative opposition and the pro-camp also became the day after the TV series ended. A wonderful part of the various newspapers.
In addition, some viewers also believe that TV series are just TV series after all, and they come from life, but they are different from life. There's no need to be so serious, just enjoy life's entertainment. Although the TV series is a reflection of the reality of Jiang, it is also a fact that can be changed under the screenwriter's pen. These viewers have a relaxed mindset. It's just a matter of watching TV series and enjoying TV dramas. They are not interested in any social phenomena and drawbacks, but are interested in the love between the unknown and Xiaoguang, and the beautiful scenery in the play. There is also an acting confrontation between several actors. More caring. In addition to the main teacher-student love in the play, the cheating between the little mother and the hospital doctor has also become the object of criticism, but this is just a dessert. In the play, the mother's deformed love for her son has even become a confinement, transferring her love for her husband to the confinement of her son, which has also become a social hotspot. Gao Douxin and Lee Joon-yi's wonderful performance. made the sparks between the mother and son burst even more, so that the audience couldn't help but devote themselves to the emotions between the mother and son.
Obviously, the "conditions of the witch" have now been equated with taboos, and every part of the play has become the focus of heated discussions.
The hot spot of society is in the "Witch Condition." The crew looks. It's nothing, because everything is just an appetizer. In the later episodes, Unknown and Hikaru break through the moral defenses. The problems that will arise will be even greater and more severe, and topics such as unmarried pregnancies, underage father roles, and miscarriages will also appear in the second half of the TV series, which is predictable. The discussion in society will not cool down, but will only get hotter and hotter.
Whether it's for or against, it's no longer a simple TV series broadcast. Rather, it is the object of concern of the whole society. The plot direction and character relationships of the TV series will become the object of discussion and newspaper comments the next day. What people are keen on is that there are exhibitions of plots, there are also explosions of plots, and there are social reactions. Now the "Witch's condition." It's like a bright spot full of light bulbs, focusing the attention of the whole society. Even if you don't watch TV series. People who don't know about this drama are almost non-existent.
