JadeCloud, is Namsoon a remake of Bong Soon, or are they different stories from the same âuniverse?â I really enjoyed Bong Soon - hilarious, a really well-written love-triangle story, admirable characters, and Park Bo-Young just rocked the title role (she became a fave after I saw her later in âOh My Ghost!â Itâs like she was born on a stage.) Iâve seen âNamsoonâ currently available in the roster of some streaming service - either Fletnix or A-zonPrime, I forget. Though Iâm not convinced the story concept is strong enough to support a whole second series, I might check it out anyway.
But to answer the lead question: The strangest drama Iâve seen would have to be the original âGalileoâ with Masaharu Fukuyama and Kou Shibasaki (both of them successful Pop singers when theyâre not acting.)
Fukuyama-san plays a genius physics professor named Yukawa-sensei; Shibasaki-san plays a rookie cop named Utsumi-san who gets assigned bizarre cases nobody else wants to tackle. She asks him for his input and he always refuses - until she tells him that the case is âimpossible.â Which she knows is irresistible bait that he always takes. So together they investigate these weird, seemingly impossible cases - and in the end they always have perfectly rational though scientifically obscure explanations.
Itâs one of those dramas that makes me think - and thatâs always a good thing (some of my buds say âa rare thingâ but I try not to listen to them. )
Oh, 'just thought of another: âSubete ga F ni Naru,â or âThe Perfect Insider,â which I think ran on C-roll before they went 95% Anime. Itâs similar to Galileo in that a mismatched but symbiotic pair of investigators solves bizarre cases - in this series theyâre all locked-room mysteries, so each episode is like a mind puzzle:
'Really wish I could watch these again⊠hint hint!
As for Strong Girl Namsoon, it is a story in the same âuniverseâ. I believe the FL is a cousin of Do Bong Soonâs, or at least a relative of some kind.
W is great in my opinion, but I am a fan of supernatural/ time travelling stories. I wouldnât have thought of it weird to be honest. A very good watch with enough to keep your brain working through the story.
Thatâs an interesting list of dramas! Sweat and Soap definitely stands out as a unique and original drama. Itâs refreshing to see something so unconventional in the romance genre. As for A Good Day to be a Dog, I totally get the hesitation, but I think itâs fascinating how K-Dramas explore such bizarre and fantastical concepts!
On a related note, if you enjoy quirky and unique experiences, you might like Car Parking Multiplayer mod apk. Itâs a fun game where you can interact with others in a virtual world, and itâs a great way to unwind after watching such creative dramas!
Thatâs such a fun topic! For me, one of the strangest and most original dramas Iâve ever seen was Itâs Okay to Be Not Okay. The fairytale elements mixed with psychological themes made it feel completely different from anything else. I also found rope hero mod apk 2025 pretty unique when it first came outâcombining sci-fi with romance in such an emotional way!
