'A Time Called You' Disappoints Viewers for 'Inaccurate' Portrayal of South Korea
On September 8, Netflix introduced its newest series "A Time Called You," which is the Korean remake of the sought-after Taiwanese drama "Someday or One Day."
According to a source, the outfits of the characters did not match the weather. Students still wear winter uniforms in spring, when the cherry blossoms bloom.
This is because of the cold weather. However, in the series, the leads walk along the cherry blossoms in their summer uniforms.
Here are Koreans comment on the K-drama "A Time Called You."
- "They used scooters to school in 1998? They would've been nagged at."
- "It would have been better if they didn't do that to the uniforms and school at least. But I still enjoyed the drama."
- "They shouldn't have set a specific time setting then."
- "If they were going to do it, they should have done it properly."
Even though it is a fictional drama where things can be exaggerated, the time slip is an important part of the series' setup to fully express the narrative of the drama.
As the characters travel back and forth to 1998, Korean viewers expected a more accurate portrayal.
