@waruihime

Yup, Tamra’s the name of Jeju. And yeah, the island known for wind, rocks, and women. Famous for tough diving ladies.

Anyway, here’s an English wiki entry:

Trying to remember my Korean history … wasn’t Tamna the old name of Jeju-do? Sometime during the Silla kingdom timeframe?

I’m still not convinced.

I guess I’m going to wait what Javabeans think after watching the first episodes of it.

@Ora
How is it “unfair” that there’s a French guy in this drama but there’s never been a European girl? It’s hardly unfair, it’s just that no kdrama has required a European female lead so far. The only reason why they’re bringing in Pierre Deporte is because Tamna the Island is based on a manga about a European man being shipwrecked there, and casting a top Korean actor and making him dye his hair platinum blonde wouldn’t really work that well. Unless there’s a similar requirement for a non-Korean female lead, I see no reason why they should cast one in the future. It’d be weird to see that happening without a need for it.

@Ora Something about your statement seems off to me. Korea isn’t exactly a melting pot at the same rate other western countries are. So it seems unlikely they would have a European descent lead. It would be unfitting to me if they had a non Korean lead. I don’t understand why it isn’t ‘fair’ that they put in a French dude and not a girl. I should hope a country would produce something that reflects their society. Something their people would want to watch. They can get imported shows all the time. Although this drama is obviously historically un-reliable, there’s more of a chance of a french explorer coming ashore then his women counterpart. Also not to mention the problems that will occur if they ever had a drama that was based on a non Korean or Asian actress. Ratings dropping, possible viewer protest. To me what your asking is what they did to the Dragon ball Z movie.
