Philippine Remakes Of Korean Dramas - Great Or Terrible?

Izvor: KiWi

Have you ever identified your self watching a random television series on a Philippine channel? And because the story continues to unfold within this episode, do you begin to wonder why the storyline appears so familiar? Then the show stops to provide technique to a industrial break and also you are greeted by the title of one of your favorite Korean dramas.

Philippine television stations are very fond of displaying original versions of dramas from Korea. A number of them flop, but most of them come to be really popular amongst Filipinos. Then soon after these television stations reap the rewards of showing the best tv show, they decide to squeeze all the things they are able to out with the drama by generating a localized remake of it.

Purists will argue that these remakes are no pinoy tv more than poor imitations or bastardized versions of your original Korean drama. On the other hand, these that are a lot more open minded argue that all these involved inside the production and filming of those dramas are in a position to infuse the neighborhood Philippine culture and traditions in to the storyline of these dramas.

I am personally on the fence with regards to this issue. While I have set to see a Filipino version of a Korean show that's at par or superior than the original, I think that the tv stations are gradually receiving there. I imply if Japan and Korea have been capable to create exceptional remakes of Taiwan's Meteor Garden then the Philippines surely has the potential to accomplish so at the same time.

Right now the prime two tv stations in the Philippines are displaying remakes of two of the much better Korean dramas in recent years. GMA channel 7 is showing its rendition of Stairway to Heaven, though ABS-CBN channel 2 is showing its rendition of Lovers in Paris. I am especially extra fond of your latter because I feel they've a better crop of actors.
