I read about what Air City’s PD Yim Tae-Woo said in one of the recent newsarticle….

PD Yim said, initially Air City was supposed to be Episodic television, or Episodic drama, but they changed their plan and now it is and will be “Miniseries”….

I don’t know the reason behind it, but I hope this would help in explaining your wondering why they’ve been making it more like miniseries, not episodic drama!

Thanks for your summary, appreciate it, Javabeans! ^o^

�Let me be your trash can. Dump everything on me. Tell me what’s bothering you.�
This made me LOL. First, Kang Tae Bong was a spare tire. Now Ha Joon’s offered to be a trash can! What’s next in kdrama?

Re: presentation of the story, I’ve to agree with you. I hope they realize they can do better with their episodes. The traditional kdrama format isn’t really working well for the drama since the setting is practically a hotspot for new stories everyday/every episode.

One other issue I think that they should be doing better is building up the Big Bad every episode. Like tidbits about who he is and what he’s trying to do.

I’ve been reading your summaries for a while now, but I’ve never left a comment. How mean of me… You’re really great at summarizing and providing commentary about the episode. I thank you for your efforts.

The flawed structure of episodes 5 and 6 didn’t really stand out to me until you mentioned them in your summaries. Now they stick out like a sore thumb. I really have to agree with your complaints. The episodes would be sooo much better if they changed the structure. Like you said, the writers need to watch some American dramas and learn how to do it right…

Despite the flaws, I’m not going to stop watching the drama. I’m too in love with the cast and the drama itself to stop. LJJ really stands out. His acting really reflects his experience and star status. LJW looks good here, too. His hair in this drama fits him better than his hair in Smile Again did. CJW is beautiful in this drama, and I like how her character is a strong, I’m-the-boss type of girl. She always seems to play the weepy, damsel-in-distress type characters. I guess the only actor/character I don’t really like is the doctor lady, MW. I briefly saw some other drama with the same actress, and her acting in there sucks, too. She fails to bring her character to life, and so I can’t really take a liking to her two-dimensional doctor character. So yea, those are my thoughts.

Again, thanks for your wonderful summaries.

“Have they never watched American television? Koreans are masters at miniseries (or �limited-run drama series�), but if Air City can be used as an example, they still have no idea how to handle episodic television. (Episodic meaning each episode is a self-contained story, rather than serial/ongoing stories like traditional kdramas.) Each episode should contain a story with a beginning, middle and end. Simple concept, right? Instead, what they’ve been doing is having the episode contain the middle and end of one story, then the beginning of another. Seriously, writers. Go watch the first season of Alias. It’ll help, I promise.”

>>> lol!! i cant agree more. i loved alias. ^^ thanks muchos sarah!! hhaha aside from the contuinity thing, its still maintains my interest. but i think they started out with more oomph! its just like a bad joke waiting to happen, or a corny punchline.

i have a question, that friend of DK how an he be a highschool friend? i thought she lived in France for the longest time? she was 10 when she left? just trying to figure this out. not unless he studied in France too.
