Young Lady and Gentleman movie review
Love Is Obstructed By Many Things In Long Episodes
The plot of Young Lady and Gentleman (2021) does not go too far from the chosen title. This 52-episode series follows the enduring love struggle between a 27-year-old girl and a wealthy 41-year-old widow with three children.
Nothing special since the first episode as the plot of this series has been very cliché from the beginning. Park Dan Dan, a 27-year-old girl, misunderstood and accused Lee Young Kuk when they first met.
Dan Dan didn’t know the man she slandered until he hit her on the head was a wealthy fashion company owner. He also did not expect that he would come to that man’s house to be the direct tutor for Lee Young Kuk’s three children.
As a widow, Young Kuk needed a professional to take care of her children and fulfill all their needs. The next plot is predictable; Of course, in an instant, Dan Dan became the new idol of Lee Young Kuk’s motherless children two years ago.
From regular meetings and interactions between bosses and employees, love begins to blossom. The very wide gap did not make Dan Truong hesitate; On the other hand, Young Kuk is a thoughtful person because he thinks about many things.
Even so, he couldn’t lie to his feelings. When overcoming obstacles from themselves, it is the turn of obstacles from other directions to appear in a hurry. And so on until the last episode.
Conflicts are repetitive and boring
The story Young Lady and Gentleman (2021) is actually very neatly written, no important details are omitted but the plot is repeated.
The conflicts shown in this film, whether they act as primary conflicts or secondary to supporting roles, tend to be repetitive and have one theme: love thwarted by words. blessing, love thwarted by differences, slander, and greed.
The same problem from the same character is presented at least two to three times to the point of frustrating you. With an average length of about one hour and ten minutes per episode, the conflicts that arise are the same. So the conflicts are often repeated, all that is felt is frustration and resentment.
Characters testing patience
Besides the tedious and bloody conflicts, Young Lady and Gentleman (2021) will challenge you with ‘magical’ characters that require patience. This movie is dominated by innocent versus cunning and greedy characters.
You will find more than one character offensive because of his stubborn head, preference for playing the victim, twisting his words, lying or deliberately covering up the truth and making money. They made this movie really tense. Not to mention all the characters have their own part of the story, which is annoying.
It’s tiresome to watch them fight over differences in social class, slanders based on greed, and other conspiracies for personal gain.
While there is no problem in terms of cinematography, this movie is not the best choice if you need entertainment. However, if you are curious about one of the highly rated KBS dramas, you can watch it.
