Dissosiyatif Kimlik Bozukluğu üzerine şahane bir dizi yapılmış. 2015 yılı için ekstra başarılı bir senaryo, bulunmaz bir oyunculuk diyebilirim. Zenginliği nesilden nesille geçen bir aileye torun kontenjanından katılan Cha Do-Hyun(Ji Sung) şirketin başına geçmek için Amerika’daki eğitimini tamamlayıp ülkesine döner. Ailesinden bile sakladığı hastalığını yalnızca asistanı ve doktoru bilmektedir. Kimlik bozukluğu olan karakterimiz kendi içinde bir sürü karakteri barındırmaktadır. Diğer yandan ise ülkesine yeni döndüğü için ailesine kendini kanıtlamak zorundadır. Bulunduğu mevki sebebiyle hastalığını kontrol altında tutması gerekir. Kendi doktorunun da tavsiyesi ile eve yatılı bir doktor almaya karar verir. Evde onu kontrol altında tutacak, şirkette de asistanı gibi rol yapacaktır. Bir şekilde ikna olup oyuna dahil olan yeni mezun doktorumuz Oh Ri-Jin(Hwang Jung-Eum) daha ilk günden Cha Do-Hyun ‘un alt karakterleri ile tanışır.
Bu noktada Cha Do-Hyun’un alt karakterlerden bahsetmek lazım. İlk kendini gösteren alt benlik Shin Se-Gi’dir. Mahallenin bıçkın delikanlısı, asi gencidir. Kural tanımaz, sert ve acımazsızdır. Aslında kızımız Do-Hyun’dan önce Se-Gi ile tanışıyor. Bu noktada diziye çok ufak da olsa fantastik durum katılmış diyebilirim. Kimliği Shin Se-Gi’ye dönüştüğü zaman boynunda bir dövme beliriyor. Aslında bu öyle abartılı fantastik bir şey değil, hatta belki de orada sadece o karakter öyle hissettiği için “varmış” gibi görünüyordu. Yani sihirli bir durumdan çok başka bir kişiliğe geçerken izleyiciye de o değişimi yaşatmak için yapılmış bir detay gibiydi.
Bir diğer kişilik Ferry Park mahallenin ayyaşı, neşelisi denilebilir. Hobi olarak patlayıcı ‘oyuncaklar’ üretiyor. 40lı yaşlarında olduğu düşünülüyor. En büyük hayali kendi isminin olduğu bir tekne sahibi olmak. Anlaşması kolay bir kişilik. Ahn Yo Sub ve Ahn Yo Na; 17 yaşında ikizler. Yo-Sub intihara meyilli depresif bir erkekken, Yo-Na ise tam tersi inanılmaz neşeli, ayran gönüllü genç bir kız. Aynı zamanda Oh Ri-Jin’in erkek kardeşi Oh Ri-On(Park Seo-Joon)’a aşık… Oh Ri-On(Park Seo-Joon) işsizmiş gibi görünen bir yazar. Omega takma adıyla kurgu romanları yazıyor ve yayınlanan bütün eserleri çok büyük bir hayran kitlesine sahip. Burada dizideki isim seçimlerine özellikle bayıldım. Kardeşlerin birinin adı Orijin diğerinin adı ise Orion gibi telaffuz ediliyor. Çok tatlı bir detay olmuş.
Bütün alt benlikleri tek tek anlatmak istemiyorum bunlar göze çarpanlardı diyebilirim. Baktığınız zaman kişilik bozukluğu üzerine bir hikaye anlatılıyormuş gibi görünse de aslında senaryo çok daha fazlasını barındırıyor. Çok daha fazlasını irdeliyor. Çocuk ihmali ve istismarı, travmalar gibi ince buz üzerinde yürüyen konular gündemde.  O yüzden dizinin türüne romantik komedi demek biraz haksızlık olur. Bu kadar ciddi ve travmatik konular etrafında dönerken bile izleyiciye kahkaha attırmayı başarıyor olması ise ayrıca ayakta alkışlanması gereken bir noktaydı. Düşündüğünüz gibi trajediden trajediye koşup sizi helak etmiyor. Yaşanmış bütün o travmaları ve trajedileri sarıp sarmalayıp içine mizah katmışlar.
Beğenmediğim şeyler olmadı mı? Oldu. Öncelikle en birinci kadın başrolü hiç beğenemedim. Abartılı, yapay bir oyunculuk sergiliyordu. Ona rağmen dizi çok iyiydi inanın. Keşke kadın oyuncu Han Ji-Min oynasaydı diye çok çok içimden geçirdim. Hwang Jung-Eum mimiksiz değil de fazla mimikli bir oyuncu, bence. İkinci beğenmediğim şey ise Hwang Jung-Eum’un karakteri Oh Ri-Jin’di maalesef 😊. Yani; henüz 1 yıllık doktor olarak her şeyi çözmesi ve kendi profesör hocasının 11 yıldır iyileştiremediği hastayı tedavi etmesi biraz manasızdı. Bir hastalık üzerine hikaye kurgulanıyor ise en azından biraz olsun çalışılmış üzerine düşünülmüş temellere dayanmasını beklerdim.
Beğenilmeyenleri konuşup çözdüysek sıra beğenilenlerde… Ji Sung !!! sen neymişsin… tek kelime ile anlatılamayacak bir şahanelik. İnanılmaz bir performans. 7 farklı karaktere bürünebilme kabiliyeti ve karakterler arası geçişlerde dahi izleyiciye hangi karakter olduğunu söylemeden anlatabilme yeteneği. Ne diyeyim bilmiyorum. Her karakterin, şivesi yaşı cinsiyeti farklı farklı olmasına rağmen, konuşmadan bakışlarıyla bile hangi karakter olduğunu anlayabiliyordunuz. Tek kişilik dev bir kadro gibiydi adeta. Buna rağmen yanına bir de oyunculuk anlamında benim takdir edip inanılmaz beğendiğim diğer bir aktörü koymasınlar mı; Park Seo-Joon. O da bence, her dizide başka karaktere bürünme konusunda bir dahi.
Bu dizinin erkek oyuncuları için farklı tercih yapılmış olsaydı, tutmasının imkanı yoktu, net. Bu yorumumu en güzel destekleyen şey ise 2015 yılı en iyi çift ödülünü Ji Sung ve Park Seo Joon ‘un canlandırdıkları Ahn Yo Na ve Oh Ri On karakterleriyle almış olmalarıdır. Ödül töreninde o kadar sevimliydiler ki açıp izlemelisiniz. Dizinin finalinde kapanış öncesi 4.duvarı yıkıp kameraya veda ettikleri bir sahne var. Orada Ji Sung’un kullandığı bütün aksan ve şiveleri ile veda etmesi ve o kısacık vedada bile pürüzsüz geçişler yapması aklımda kalan sahnelerden biriydi.
Sonuç olarak; diziyi kesin izleyin.
OST:
Lilly Mandover, Nashow - Auditory Hallucination

the impossible heir episodes 1-4 ramblings
Last week was an eventful one for Lee Jae Wook, Hong Su Zu, and Lee Jun-young's The Impossible Heir. Not only was last week the premiere of the series, but Dispatch, the popular Korean tabloid, released "earth-shattering" news that Lee Jae Wook was dating aespa's Karina. This garnered controversy and scrutiny towards the show and could have contributed to its ratings. However, as a self-professed Lee Jae Wook fan, I tuned in to watch the show last week regardless of the news. The Impossible Heir is arguable Lee Jae Wook's first "adult" show. Much of his prior work involved dramas that catered to the YA audience and for the first time we see him essaying a far more mature and morally dubious character as Han Tae Oh. While the show is marketed as having three leads, in my opinion, Tae Oh steals the show.
Tumblr media
In the first episode, we are introduced to a teenage Han Tae Oh. The son of a murderer, for the sake of his and his mother's safety, he's forced by himself to a small town. Unlike his peers, he has no legal guardian and rents a rundown house in the village. Before the first day of school, he manages to provoke the ire of Kang In Ha, the illegitimate son of the Kang-Oh chaebol family. While the two boys are initially at odds with each other and even end up having a dramatic fight in the school lunchroom, the episode ends with an unlikely partnership- Tae Oh offering to use his intelligence to help In Ha achieve the impossible- the opportunity to be the next heir of Kang Oh Group over his two legitimate half brothers.
Tumblr media
Over the next three episodes, we see Tae Oh and In Ha grow up as college students and later employees at Kang Oh. During their college years, we see a blossoming friendship between the two as In Ha becomes Tae Oh's only companion during their time at Hankuk University. Alongside their internal scheming to take over Kang Oh, we see glimpses that their friendship is no different from any other peers. They have birthday meals, eat lunch together in the cafeteria, and drink late night beers from the convenience. In Ha constantly chides Tae Oh for working too many part time jobs, but remains the dutiful wealthy friend that is willing to book a tutoring gig for Tae Oh or drop him off at work to help him financially stay afloat. The dynamics between both men take a sharp turn with the introduction of Na Hye-Won, who both male leads end up falling for though she ultimately ends up dating In Ha, mainly because she views In Ha as her key to overcoming poverty and acquiring wealth and prestige.
Tumblr media
Just as episode two ends, the show takes another five year time leap and both men are working for Kang Oh group. Hye-Won also becomes what appears to be a staff member for a political party. The three remain as co-conspirators in their efforts to take over Kang Oh Group. Of the three, perhaps the person who gets closest to the chairman, Kang Jun Mo, is Tae Oh, who ascends to the role of his personal secretary. Tae Oh becomes Jun Mo's greatest asset and trusted confidante. Through his role, he starts to move the game pieces that would create a clear path of succession for In Ha.
Tumblr media
The weakest aspect of the The Impossible Heir 's writing has to be Na Hye Won's character arc. Nothing about her frankly makes any sense. During the second episode, we are introduced to Hye Won as both In Ha's and Tae Oh's classmate and Tae Oh's neighbor. While its obvious that Tae Oh may have developed feelings for Hye Won due to their chance encounters, In Ha's feelings arise out of nowhere- to the point that it almost feels like he only wants Hye Won because he wants to take a person Tae Oh cherishes from him. However, if this was the case, the intensity of love that In Ha develops for Hye Won makes no sense. Furthermore, its puzzling to see the two boys so readily accept a stranger as a partner in developing and implementing a plan they have spent years working on together. Exacerbating this poor placement of the female lead is her poor portrayal by Hong Su Zu. Hong Su Zu's acting has been widely criticized by the Korean audience since the airing of the second episode. While I could see others' complaints last week, it did not initially bother me as much. However, the poor acting has become glaringly apparent in this week's episodes. If Hye Won is supposed to be who she's written to be- a morally grey character who is willing to do whatever it takes, including playing with someone's feelings, to escape her present circumstances, I would expect her to be desperate, shrewd, cunning, manipulative, and charismatic. However, the version that is presented to us is so blasé, stoic, and mediocre. Hong Su Zu's expressions and delivery are extremely limited- it's hard to swallow the thought that she's supposed to be a crucial main character.
Tumblr media
Conversely, Tae-Oh's arc is the strongest point in the writing. As audience members, we are gripped by the elusive question- what does Tae-Oh get from this partnership? Why is he fiercely loyal to In Ha? and Does he truly want the best for his friend or is he planning on throwing him under the bus? Lee Jae Wook excels in playing the ambitious yet guarded Tae Oh, who becomes the "catalyst" of the story. Without Tae Oh, there's no plot. While Hye Won is a disappointing female lead, I was surprised by the chemistry between Tae-Oh and Choi Hee Jin's Kang Huiju, the younger half sister of Kang In Ha. Huiju develops an obsessive never-ending one-sided crush on Tae Oh when he becomes her short-lived mathematics tutor. At first glance, it's easy to brush her off as a minor character, but the amount of screen time she receives on the show suggests otherwise and Choi Hee Jin excels in playing the "petulant spoiled brat who surprisingly may be the only person in her family with a conscience".
If Tae Oh is a volcano patiently waiting to erupt at the right time,Huiju is a raging forest fire traveling at 100 mph. Her love and desire for Tae Oh is all consuming and destructive- something she wholeheartedly embraces but Tae-Oh fears. When Huiju's spontaneity comes to a head with Tae Oh's restraint, we see an electrifying chemistry between the two and we see another dimension of Tae Oh. While he can be avoidant and harsh, he is also gentle, kind, and protective. Its this internal push and pull that makes their relationship worth exploring.
One of the highlights of the latest episode was when Huiji confronts Tae Oh in a parking garage adamantly professing that she will force her parents to agree to their marriage and that she "will protect" Tae-Oh. I found her confession interesting on many levels because so far, all of Tae-Oh's relationships are exploitative. The other characters including his closest friend In Ha are only concerned about what Tae Oh can do for them and this is the first time we see someone offering to do something for him with no reciprocity. It's unclear if Hui Ju is a red herring or someone who will grow to be an integral part of Tae-Oh's life. As a viewer, I have to say that this relationship is one of the main draws to the show and is something that the writers utilize appropriately.
Overall, Impossible Heir is a Malthusian and Machiavellian drama that wholeheartedly embraces the capitalistic jungle. It may not be a show that fans of prior Lee Jae Wook's dramas will love, but it still deserves to be given a chance.

***

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

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
