Time Slip Dr. Jin Episode 1
5 people found this review helpful
Well i'm a huge fan of JIN, so of course i'm biased & i will compare. Indeed, 1st episode so-so when it was freaking amazing in the japanese version. They took away all its magic. (No surprises here, the best jdramas are real masterpieces)
What startled me the most was the very BAD acting, especially from SSH (that i usually like). I mean, he arrives in the past & doesn't seem too shocked (expressionless face..). I laughed so hard when he almost immediately asks "What year is it" ! Champion haha, if i end up in a weird place this wouldn't be the 1st question that comes to my mind. But maybe it's the script's fault here. Anyway, he doesn't convey any feelings, even when he's trying to save his gf (it feels fake). PMY is for now completely dull & uninteresting (maybe that will change later on). Jaejoong is ok i guess. The people don't seem too amazed at the doctor's skills but it will change i hope.
OH & what to say about the guy with the tumor?!!! I won't express my full opinion on this so as not to spoil the story for those who don't know, but big disappointment here (he's supposed to be desperate, not having a nice stroll)
They did a bad job on the scenes/ideas they took from the 1st episode of JIN. The script appears to be kind of faltering for now. But what gives me hope is that they changed the story a little. So hopefully, if they continue to change the story it won't disappoint me. Because i liked the new elements added. I mean it's useless to do the same thing since it will never be as brilliant as JIN, they understood that i think.
So i'll continue watching a little out of curiosity. Even though it's nothing compared to the original, the concept/main story itself is such a beautiful one that I can't hate Dr. Jin either.
PS: those who haven't seen JIN should really do so, provided of course they like the magic feeling of jdramas, that can be subtle or boring for some
