The Color Concept on Little Women (2022)
Part 1: Princess of Thieves
The Princess of Thieves Orchid have 2 colors: Pink and Purple
Tumblr media
Which is the color of dress that Injoo and Hwayoung wear during Singapore climax scene
Injoo: Pink
Hwayoung: Purple
Pink as Injoo's color
Pink orchid have meaning: Romance, Love, Friendship
Injoo's main plot always not far from her sisters and Hwayoung. Her love for them is driving force that keep made Injoo move foward
Purple as Hwayoung's color
Purple orchid have meaning: Wisdom, Intellegence, MYSTERY
Wisdom: Hwayoung is Injoo's senior at workplace. Injoo saw Hwayoung as someone who teach her many things
Intellegence: Hwayoung had planned things very further and details, and outsmarting Sangah's manipulation
Mystery: Hwayoung is central mystery of the story
Tumblr media
Hwayoung's Apartment
Hwayoung have small purple orchid on her apartment at Singapore
Hwayoung's apartment wallpaper at South Korea have purple as main color. The wallpaper also used as background for one of main poster
***
Purple and Pink on title of Little Women
In opening sequence, the title Little Women have purple with pink shade as background color
In each ending of episode, the title Little Women appear before credits, usually appear in white text and black screen, before the text got painted. The first color of paint in text is Pink and Purple
Which is color of Injoo and Hwayoung
Tumblr media
It's like indicating how Little Women's plot story, beside the Oh Sisters, mostly will be around Injoo and Hwayoung
***
A glimpse of Pink and Purple color on Injoo and Hwayoung's clothes at South Korea
Tumblr media
At South Korea, Injoo mostly wear earth color pallete clothes and Hwayoung mostly wear colorless (black/white) clothes
(more explaination on Part 2: Earthenspoon & Nospoon)
But in 1st episode, there's small purple part in Hwayoung clothes. And when Injoo "playing rich", she wear pink clothes.
It's like hinting how they are part of Princess of Thieves later in story
***
Cinderella and Fairygodmother
Tumblr media
Hwayoung and Injoo in restaurant scene heavily referenced from Cinderella
Hwayoung is like Fairygodmother who dressing Injoo, the Cinderella, to "playing rich"
The Purple color on Hwayoung and Pink color on Injoo is similar with purple color on Cinderella's Pink dress and Fairygodmother's Purple cloak
***
Color Mood of Princess of Thieves
Tumblr media
In each scene when Injoo had thinking or talking about Hwayoung, the color mood around her change into combination of Pink and Purple; the color of Princess of Thieves
Quoting from Choo Jahyun (Hwayoung's actress)'s interview:
"It felt like Goeun (Injoo's actress) was living as both Injoo and Hwayoung at the same time in Little Women"
The combination of pink and purple color mood on those scenes is like symbolized how Injoo and Hwayoung become one on Injoo's mind
***
The Intruder: Yellow
On Princess of Thieves that appear on Singapore's auction, the flower has little shade of Yellow
Which is color of Won Sangah and fake!Hwayoung's dress on Singapore
Won = name of Korean money currency
Korean highest currency (50,000) has color of Yellow
Yellow = Sangah and Won Family = Capitalism
Tumblr media
Yellow vs Purple
On color wheel theory, Yellow and Purple are color that opposite to each other
Symbolized how Hwayoung (Purple) and Sangah (Yellow) are total opposite
Tumblr media
In opening sequence, Oh sisters were drawn mostly with shade of purple, and their background is yellow.
Indicating how the sisters are like "actors" in Sangah's play vs Hwayoung; how the battle between those masterminds was told from three sisters' perspective
It's also symbolized how Sangah = Yellow = Money = Capitalism is the main enemy
***
The Shadow of Flower
Tumblr media
Hwayoung (화영)'s name have meaning Beautiful Flower. The writer JSK had mentioned that she want to give a name to Hwayoung that relate to Flowers because Hwayoung love gardening
In hanja, Hwayoung have secret meaning of her name: 花影 = 꽃의 그림자 = Shadow of Flower
It's like symbolising how Hwayoung is shadow part of flowers:
1. Princess of Thieves: to Injoo
At first, Hwayoung's color seems like also Pink
Hwayoung mostly wear pink on her second account/alter ego Jin Mikyung and on Injoo's imagination about Hwayoung's second life
It's like foreshadowing how Hwayoung live under Injoo's name at Singapore
On locker scene, Hwayoung seems like giving off her pink clothes to Injoo. Like symbolizing she's fully giving the pink side of Princess of Thieves to Injoo, together with all money and Bruno Zumino shoes that she give to her on the bag
Tumblr media
2. Blue Ghost Orchid: to Sangah and Won Family/Jeongran
The surname Jin (진) on Jin Hwayoung is to give impression that Hwayoung is came from place that far away (indeed in character description of Hwayoung on official website, it's written Hwayoung is not from Seoul and came to there to work on Orchid Construction). If we look to Jin in Chinese surname version, it has meaning GOLD
It's like secret meaning on how Hwayoung in back have so many money and assets, because she's part of secret society Jeongran and worked for Won family
***
Thief Princess
youtube
There's Little Women OST titled "Thief Princess"
The OST indeed mostly got played in some scene that relate to Injoo or/and Hwayoung:
When Injoo decided to search the truth behind Hwayoung's death, and she look to the unbloomed Princess of Thieves
When Sangah give Injoo a blue suit, and then Injoo remembering how Hwayoung give her a black suit before this
When Hwayoung confess that she want Injoo to be happy on court scene

Idk, but I imagine a Batman-type ending for Little Women. Maybe with Injoo dying for her sisters (we all know she would do it without hesitation). But after a while we are shown In Kyung traveling to Singapore, and in the distance she can see her big sister, under a new identity, having lunch at a fancy restaurant with her sexy new husband (yes, Choi do il, I have blind hopes). They look at each other, do a Bruce Wayne/Alfred nod, and walk away. The cameras turn off. Credits appear. The best kdrama of the year is over.

Read a theory on twitter by one k fan that Doil has most probably transferred the money to Hyorin’s accounts. He was looking at her bankbooks when they went to rescue Inhye in that closed room. It will be such a genius move tbh. That would make Sangah as the person who embezzled money & hid them in her daughter’s accounts to avoid suspicions & then blamed it on a poor employee. I have always believed that Hyorin is her biggest weakness. Nothing will be sweeter than taking her down using that same weakness because she loved toying with Oh sisters using their love for each other. This would also complete the OG four little women.

Bloodhounds
Tumblr media
TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2023
Bloodhounds (2023, South Korea)
Director & Writer: Kim Joo Hwan (based on the webtoon by Jeong Chan)
Mini-review:
I'm gonna be honest: I'm not usually a big fan of these type of movies/shows and I only started this one because of the wonderful Woo Do Hwan. However, color me surprised, cause I ended up loving Bloodhounds. Sure, this story has been told a million times before, but the bromance, the incredibly lovable characters (and incredibly hateful villains!) and the showstopping action scenes take this show to the next level. I'm telling you, it's a really enjoyable experience.
On top of that, the cast absolutely delivers. The show is filled with knockout (pun intended) performances, there's not a single weak link. You can tell just how hard these actors worked to prepare for all the fights and action sequences. Oh, and I can't leave out Kim Joo Hwan's propulsive directing, which left me breathless in several episodes. I do think the final scene cut off way too suddenly, and the sort-of-time-jump in episode 7 is also rather awkward, but I guess it's understandable, considering all the trouble the show went through during post-production. Anyway, Bloodhounds took me by surprise, and I think most people who like action movies/shows focused on hand-to-hand combat will love this.

The level of badassery in this playlist knows no bounds. Kim Do Gi is a force of nature, a law unto himself. Conversely, he is a carer, a listener, a friend, and protector of those left behind, but at the end of the day, he is just a man who needs a place to call home.

Call It Love
Tumblr media
This is not the typical cross-lovers story. Shim Woo Joo - in her quest to avenge her family from her late father's mistress (and later wife) who took away their home - she meets Han Dong Jin (the woman's son). And in her attempt at revenge, she falls in love.
Even if the story sounds like the typical storyline, the execution is different. Here she has a male-best friend who is just a friend. There is no best friend-in love with her in silence troupe. They are truly best friends and he falls in love with her older sister. It explores what happens when a parent leaves home to be with someone else from different perspectives. Hae Sung (the eldest daughter) is always dating the wrong men but never gives up on being with someone. Yet, when she finds out that the man she is seeing is actually married, she feels horrible about herself because she has sworn never to do that. She knows how painful that is. Woo Joo took on the weight of the house, not going to school and working. She is the strong one, the one who takes charge, the one that suffers in silence while her older sister can play and her younger brother too. She is the one with the consuming anger, the one that knows the face of her father's lover, the one who confronted him and watched him leave with the other woman. And she is the one who seeks revenge when the woman throws them out of their home. Ji Goo was too little when it happened. He only remembers his father as a loving man. He never saw him with another woman, and he lives a pretty much carefree life. Their mother is also an elegant woman, who doesn't lower herself in front of the mistress or her unfaithful husband. I liked that too. I can understand their pain, I could relate to Woo Joo in many ways.
I could also see Dong Jin and how his mother's actions also affected his life. How he carried the shame of her unethical behavior, how he has to deal with the consequences of her actions. These are young people that are living with the hurt and pain, and I liked watching their healing process. I liked how the story unfolded, leaving cliché out of the equation. It felt real and its bittersweetness, mixed with the sweetness of hope, balancing the mood of the story.
I truly loved the story and recommend it.

I don’t normally post about TV shows, but I’ve been watching Extraordinary Attorney Woo on Netflix and I can’t stop thinking about it! I’ve never watched a K-Drama before, but I’m absolutely hooked and have saved a bunch more to my Netflix list. Let me know if there’s another one I should watch!

I am somewhat satisfied with the ending (except doil injoo not being the endgame lets talk about that later) but there are few things i wished to see differently.
1. ⁠The villain takedown was not satisfactory. I was left confused about the dynamics between sangah & jaesang. His character was definitely much more than just killing himself at one order of his wife. Especially when did see him overpowering her in the past. Also, I wanted a more painful end for Sangah.
2. ⁠The functioning of Jeongran Society. I was left confused whether the other members were aware of Sangah killing people in the name of the society? We do know that her dad was actively involved in murders but they dealt with it poorly considering they focused so much on it in the beginning. I was confused whether it was an actual foundation to help underprivileged children & then kill them off once they were no longer useful? Like how & why? I was strangely very much interested in the cult so imagine my disappointment that they didn’t clear these things.
3. ⁠Romanticising Hwayoung’s actions: unpopular opinion but hwayoung isn’t the hero the drama made her out to be. she intentionally dragged injoo into this mess by giving her the money. her happiness my foot. she ain’t dumb to not know what she was putting injoo into while living lavishly herself in singapore. She intentionally dragged Injoo in all the mess & gets away with only a sorry? just because she saved her life in Singapore when she was the reason why Injoo landed in danger in first place. I still don’t get her motives. if she indeed cared about injoo then she wouldn’t have given her the money at first place knowing how sangah has been grooming injoo using her. she would’ve sent injoo far away from anything related to sangah. they want us to feel bad for her? she used injoo’s naivety as well for her own benefits just like others. & the fact that she actually hired an innocent person to get killed in her place is so damn fkd up. all this just for a revenge? i am glad doil wasn’t involved in her plans because i had a theory that they were working together to bring down sangah. still mad that injoo forgave her just like that because she saved her life in singapore but not even a thank you to doil when he has protected her at each & every step 😭
4. ⁠Doil’s closure with his family. I know the story wasn’t about him but just a scene with him & his parents wouldn’t have hurt. Especially when his life was directly impacted by the evils of Jeongran Society. I wanted to know how he & his mom survived the accident? What happened to his dad? Argh if only.
5. ⁠Hyorin’s reaction to her parents’ death. No matter how evil they were, jaesang & sangah were still her parents & they should’ve shown atleast one reaction from her. Ah well.
6. ⁠One scene with the Oh sisters together in their new apartment. They should have given us atleast a reunion of them being happy together one last time.
All in all it was a fun watch. The screenplay was engaging with beautiful cinematography & great acting from everyone. I still think they needed 2 more episodes to wrap up things in a more convincing manner. 8/10 for me (deducting one point for the above mentioned reasons & one for no doil-injoo endgame)

D.P. (Season 2)
Tumblr media
TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2023
D.P. (Season 2, 2023, South Korea)
Director: Han Jun Hee
Writers: Kim Bo Tong & Han Jun Hee
Mini-review:
The moment has finally come: Netflix's best Korean Original has made its return with a second season. And these two years of waiting have been more than worth it. It seemed impossible but, somehow, this new season is even better than the first one. It preserves all of its many strengths, and then it takes them to the next level. Both the directing and the writing are amazingly intense. I spent six whole hours on the edge of my seat, biting my nails to the quick, and the last two episodes left me breathless. I also loved the show's attempts at experimenting, like the musicality in episode 3 or the horror undertones in episode 4. As for the acting, is there anything left to say? This is a cast full of incredible actors, and all of them give career-best performances. This time round, Jung Hae In and Son Suk Ku are probably the MVPs, but everyone does a flawless job. To sum up, this second season blew away my sky-high expectations, and I really hope we get a third one, cause TV shows don't get better than this.
P.S. There's a lot of triggering content here, so please be careful with that. Those of you who watched the first season already know this, but I'm saying it just in case.
