Original title : Cinta Tak Seindah Drama Korea. It is an Indonesian rom com film. Written & directed by Meira Anastasia. Starring Lutesha, Jerome Kurnia, Ganindra Bimo, Dea Panendra, Anya Geraldine, Rafly Altama Putra.
Dhea gets a sweet surprise from her boyfriend, Bimo, in the form of a trip to Seoul, South Korea. She goes with her best friends , Kikan & Tara, who really like K-dramas like her. Dhea meets her ex from high school, Julian.
Will this be a situation like in K-dramas that happens in real life??
Rated 6.9/10. Languages Indonesian, Korean & English. Filming locations : Seoul, South Korea. ‘Fraser’s place’ & many other spots that we easily identify from the various dramas we have watched.
Most of it is enjoyable. But when it comes to parents’ accident, it could have been handles better. It is the directorial debut. She will learn.
The story in the hands of a Korean director would have been different. Better ? Maybe. IT blends the languages so well. The food hut’s owner looks more Korean than Julian.
The three going gaga over a photo of Gong Yoo & then Hyun Bin ! How did Julian know ?? He had seen Indonesian women do that earlier ! Well said.
With the friends when we peek into their lives , the director suddenly brings a boyfriend / admirer to Tar’s door! Just like ‘The Potato Lab’ but okay. It can happen.
I enjoyed it in bits & wished it was better.
