Kim Jae Wook is Written out of Inspiring Generation

 Last week I wrote a post about how much I am loving Inspiring Generation. It is well written, the cinematography is excellent, the music is wonderful, and the cast is made up of some amazing actors. Yes, there are a lot of superlatives in that sentence, but I don't care, it's a good story. But now, I am not so sure how I feel about things. It's amazing what can happen in a week isn't it?

I'm going to be honest, I am not watching this show for Kim Hyung Joong, but he is what got me interested in the drama along with the fact that the story sounded really interesting. What sealed the deal for me was the fact that Kim Jae Wook and Song Jae Rim were going to be in it, which bring us to the problem at hand.

Kim Jae Wook isn't going to be in the show anymore! What the heck? I was so excited for him to be in a drama where he actually gets to freaking speak and maybe get a girl and now he's gone. Gone. Forever. And without a legitimate explanation. He didn't even get a good ending! I didn't know that he was written out until I read this article! What kind of writing team says an actor is going to be gone two episodes after his last episode?! *flips table*

The reason that he is being written out awkwardly - that is the only way I can see that happening - is because one of the four writers is leaving and being replaced by someone who apparently doesn't like Kim Jae Wook's character. It's not like his character had any back story or a clear objective, other than to win Ok Ryeon over (which I was totally rooting for) but for second male leads, do they always need to be these amazing characters? I was actually enjoying the simplicity of his character because there are so many other crazy things happening in this drama. 

So, once again, I am denied the wonderfulness that is Kim Jae Wook. If something happens to Song Jae Rim now, I might do something that I will regret. Do you hear me new writer? Don't screw up this drama! I like it!

Are you Watchinng "Inspiring Generation"?

Because if you aren't, you totally should because it's awesome. Why is it so awesome you ask? Well, I would be more than happy to tell you.

The cinematography is freaking gorgeous 

 
There are more ships in this harbor than any harbor should rightfully have. We'll just have to see who sails and who sinks.  

Jung Tae and Ok Ryeon                 Soo Ok and Ok Ryeon

 Gaya and Shinichi                                 Aoki and Gaya

Jung Tae and Il Hwa                           Jung Tae and Gaya

These are all the main pairings and as you can see, Gaya is a hot commodity. Gaya and Ok Ryeon are literally the only important females in the story so I guess when you only have two options, the suitors pile up. 

Right now I am rooting for the Soo Ok and Ok Ryeon pairing because I am kind of in love with Kim Jae Wook and I don't think that Jung Tae really likes Ok Ryeon. It feels like it's a sense of duty type of deal. For Gaya, I'm stuck between Shinichi and Aoki. Is it wrong that I don't ship the main paring? Will that change in the future? Who knows. 

If it doesn't though, Jung Tae and Il Hwa can just continue to try to kill each other, or rather Il Hwa can keep knocking Jung Tae on his butt. 

Along with there being an insane amount of ships, there is also an abundance of gorgeous and talented men. Seriously, why are there so many male characters in this drama, it's hard to keep track sometimes.

      

 Kim Jae Wook                                 Song Jae Rim 

   Jo Dong Hyeok                                Kim Hyung Joon

When I heard that Kim Hyung Joong was going to be in a new drama I was interested in watching it; not because I was in love with him or anything, but because he hasn't done anything since Playful Kiss and I didn't really enjoy that drama. Then when I found out that Kim Jae Wook and Song Jae Rim were going to be in it too, that definitely sealed the deal. Give me more of them please.

The OST is beautiful

Um, how do you put a picture up for this? The music really is wonderful in this drama. It adds to the feel of the scene rather than take away from it. There is also a nice mix of traditional sounds and modern sounds that correlate well to the scenes they are accompanying. 

The acting and the story line are also quite wonderful

I have been rather stressed out on multiple occasions while watching this drama and that is a good thing. Even though we know our main character can't die, I have been scared and on the edge of my seat quite often for their lives even though there would be no drama if they died now.

The story, thus far, hasn't been romantically driven either which is a nice change. I guess it's a little hard for a story to be romantically driven when the main girl would like to painfully murder the main guy's family in front of him.

Overall, if this drama continues to be this good, it will probably be one of my favorite dramas of the year. We're only on episode six, so there is definitely time for the writers to panic and ruin everything (because that does happen), but let's all pray that it doesn't.
