Akage Girl

Can I just say that so far, I have loved everything the Hong sisters write? This show is no exception. I believe these two women really excel at character development through action and dialogue. The Master’s Sun is no exception. It is all about the characters or at least in the case of this show, its all about the main characters.
STORY:
The story is fairly simple, poor Tae Gong Shil (well done by Gong Hyo Jin) sees ghosts and that makes her life miserable. On a fateful rainy night, the driver of a car picks up Tae Gong Shil who is waving from the side of the road; even though the passenger tells him to drive on. Tae Gong Shil climbs into the back with Joo Joong Won, the CEO of Kingdom (delicious performance from So Ji Sub). From the moment she touches him she realizes the physical touch from Joo Joong Won blocks her ability to see ghosts and soon after that she just can’t get enough of physical time with CEO Joo……yeah……me either. He was a fun character……and very easy on the eyes.
Like all good shows, they start to form a strange relationship fraught with ghosts, jealous rivals, a childhood kidnapping, and a few not very nice people. Will they fall in love? Sounds inevitable to me.
CHARACTERS:
The best character by far is Tae Gong Shil, she has so many conflicting facets to her character that we can’t help but be captivated. At first I didn’t think the character of Joo Joong Won was keeping up but come episode 10…..wow, he practically burst on the screen all over again and became so much more fun and multi-dimensional. Both these characters kept me on my toes the entire show. The other supporting characters did a great job but, in the end, when one of these two were on the screen, that is all you see.
MUSIC:
The music wasn’t very memorable except the song Touch Love, I am considering downloading it as it was pretty cool. The rest didn’t detract from the story but didn’t add much as well.
REWATCH:
Please watch it again just to see if the characters are as interesting the second time around. I just can’t stop thinking about Tae Gong Shil and Joo Jong Won. There are many words to describe them, frustrating, lively, infuriating, good-looking, funny, but NOT boring.
