is that the nine-tailed fox in the former is closer to the setting of "monster" in the traditional narrative, while the latter is more inclined to set and bless superpowers in the way of beasts. Although the first episode of the
play has many logical dropouts, the highlights are also obvious, but the second episode of the narrative clues is cumbersome and broken, causing the score to drop quickly , currently Douban has fallen from 8.4 to 7.9; it is worth noting, perhaps This is the story of the fox ghost and the flower demon from the perspective of this kind of urban bizarre talk. The setting itself has its own "shortcut" .
One, urban strange talk, fox ghost flower demon.
puts the ancient doctrine of gods and monsters in the context of modern cities, and it has always been an effective path for film and television dramas to break through time and space.
The heroine in " Druna Hotel " has a thousand years of history. In Li Dongxu's previous work "The Lonely and Brilliant God-Ghost", neither of the two heroes is "human." The web drama "Soul Ferry" small and medium convenience store The setting of the big universe is hidden inside, and the amazing narrative entrance was once unlocked. All of these, the advantage of the collision setting of "modern city and ancient legend" is obvious.
One, a new way to reconstruct the old impression.
The bus patients who died in "The Legend of Nine Tailed Fox", after arriving at the center of the dead, sat in rows on small benches to listen to the lecture. It was obviously about the trial of the underworld, and the presentation was like tourists listening to the guide.
Human-shaped foxes may not always eat liver or “charm”, and they may also open pet hospitals.
can understand the words of cats, dogs and small animals.
In the familiar context of modern life, re-interpreting the defamiliarization elements in the ancient fairy tale of the flower demon, the wonderful effect of mixing and matching, has always been the big move of this kind of setting .
For example, in "Soul Ferry", the lord of hell looks like a soft girl, and the New Year in the Underworld will be like a real estate company. The paradoxical, ironic, and funny details are all extra points in the story.
Two, skewer narration from different eras, enrich visual experience.
In the opening part of the second episode of "The Legend of Nine Tailed Fox", Li Ran, played by Li Dongxu, is dressed in ancient costume and stands on the top of the mountain in red.
Whether it is the setting of the identity of the mountain god, the scene of a three-way ferry on the river, or the search for rebirth, The pictures are very ornamental. The
lens presents different eras in turn, from ancient costumes to modern to contemporary times. The changes in makeup, hair, and clothing have relatively rich visual perception levels.
Three, enhance the sense of horror and suspense.
In the opening part of "Nine Tailed Fox", the heroine (played by Zhao Baoer) at the bus stop in the middle of the night carries a drunk old man who cannot walk, but the weight of the other person is extraordinary. People worry that the next second will become a violent means of "trying to strangle people."
On the bus that entered the tunnel on the other side, there was also a tension that was about to happen. The female middle school student who survived the
bus case went home with the hostess late at night, and the two talked together. The story repeatedly hinted that "this girl is a fake and she has a problem", but when the real face is revealed and how to turn her face is still Unknown, this process of waiting for the answer to be revealed is also a time for the sense of suspense and horror. Although
has a lot of slots logically, in the first two episodes, both men and women are lovable, and the creation of famous scenes is also remarkable.
Second, the protagonist’s personality is maximized. The trend of
in this year's romance drama is obvious. The heroine of the "nothing, waiting to be protected" type is becoming less and less pleasing. Correspondingly, the heroine is more capable of playing.
The heroine played by Li Zhi-eun in "Druner Hotel" is astounding to carry a gun and punish the wicked in public, with a force value of max~ "Itaewon class" in the role of Kim Domi is also very capable of "making waves", "The King: Forever Monarch" 》Zhongjin Gaoyin is a criminal police officer, and it demonstrates the business ability of pulling wind when it goes online.
Regardless of whether it involves strange forces or not, it is a general trend that the heroine is more and more able to play .
The heroine in the second episode of "The Legend of the Nine Tails" is currently known as an ordinary human being, but her abilities are not in the slightest. The initial surprise of the
series is that when the heroine was young, was more intelligent, calm, and brave than .
The young girl in the play discovers that the "mother" is not the real mother but a human-shaped fox. "The other party is false.
introduced the fake "mother" into the kitchen and successfully dispersed the two enemies. After confirming the identity of the other party, they quickly pierced out the scissors, which was surprisingly calm and brave.
From the point of view of common sense, this age does not match this kind of behavioral ability, but as long as the play can successfully establish the character, "the ability to transcend age" will not become a real slot. In the first episode of
, the heroine knows that the female high school student is a fake, and sets up a situation to try to find out the truth. She leaves a note for the hero as a guide; photographs the inhuman fight between the hero and the younger brother, and comes to the door with the U disk evidence. "Threat", after jumping off the building to test and confirm the identity of the "inhuman", he simply took a burst of anesthetics.
is a chain buckle, and the ability setting is very exciting.
Of course, if considers its links from the perspective of the original drama, each link is prone to problems, but as a romantic drama, writing an aggressive heroine is already an improvement; the problem is that the second episode of the heroine The ability of seems to be faintly disconnected.
As for the personality of the male protagonist, the most important core trait is affectionate.
in essence, romance dramaThe perfectionist emotional "opium" is often sold.
Whether the nine-tailed fox looks arrogant or not, whether it has a poisonous tongue, or whether it has a quality of life is not important. The important thing is affection. The endless deep affection is always deep. The
play repeatedly emphasizes the huge price that the mountain god has fallen in love with ordinary humans: six hundred years of hard labor (similar to labor reform?)
has been out of the world for hundreds of years, searching repeatedly, and never regrets.
Excluding all other factors, the play successfully "maximizes" the advantages of both men and women in the opening stage of the play, and it has already won half.
Three, extra points for romantic scenes, points deduction for scattered narration. The obvious advantages of
in the current play include the creation of romantic scenes of , and the aesthetic texture is very online.
At the end of the first episode, the virgin protagonist jumped off the building for temptation, and the protagonist flew to save people. In the upside down lights of the entire city and the hazy moonlight, the flying scenes are very romantic and dreamy.
At the beginning of the second episode, a beautiful picture of one person and one fox in the ancient mountains and forests. The composition color, picture presentation and background music are all typical Korean romance, very beautiful. When the lady of
died, the male protagonist chased him and sent out the fox beads. The desperate affection was also impressive.
Li Dongxu makes people feel more and more that he is too suitable for this kind of tragic role of life; the mature control and presentation ability of the team's Korean romantic style is also an important bonus.
The innovative ability of romance dramas is often not strong, most of which only change the coat of speech, essentially changing the soup without changing the medicine . The three-dimensional degree of
shaping the role and the rigorous degree of logical closed loop often cannot stand the test. For
, love stories are always an important category with a large market, the essential reason lies in the rigid demand attribute of "emotional products".
Whether the nine-tailed fox is a good mountain god or not is not important, whether the heroine’s planning is thorough or not is not important. The strange story of the modern urban fox, ghost and flower demon sells affectionate and romantic lining.
However, after watching the main content of the second episode, it makes people feel that the content of the drama is too much and cumbersome. There are many narrative lines in a limited volume, and some are scattered, which makes it difficult to judge the follow-up product trend.
The tragedy of the heroine’s colleague’s mother, the young man who happened upon the wishing pool before the actor’s brother made the bus tragedy, the tragedy of the unknown island for decades, there are too many narrative lines. If
can be used by future screenwriters to integrate multiple lines into one big conspiracy in the same story, this sense of chaos may be resolved.
But the perception at this stage is that a passerby suddenly goes online at every turn, opens a new story line, and the thread is too much and too broken.
look forward to the follow-up can "group into a big circle."
