I've been looking forward newest drama JTBC of age of youth , as it was announced, as I am particularly fond of stories that have strong female friendships, especially if they are not only vehicles that are more the love lives of our discuss protagonists. Although the premiere was not as optimistic as I expected from the promos, it did its job to help us with our five roommates in the introduction, take us through this uncertain, anxious first days of college than through the eyes of the newest and youngest addition see the house. It's a scary world out there as a newly minted young adults on their own - but it can also be a time for growth and discovery, set on the way to a newer of themselves and perhaps better version.
EPISODE 1: "The fear Takeoff #slipper"
a young woman who is passed out on the bus awake by a loud horns frightened. She looks out the window to get a view of the city when the bus in Seoul crosses.
A radio presenter told that it March 1, the beginning of a new school year and a new beginning. Confidence - - Her advice to students is the main back to school important to remember, and that instead of stressing out about what lies ahead, they should feel confident about the future
Now from the bus , the young. Woman navigates his way to a share of the Belle Epoque called. She climbs the stairs to the front door; a chic grandmotherly woman follows behind her and asks her who she is.
awkward bow, the young woman quietly: she is YOO EUN-Jae ( Park Hye-soo ) and they moved in today.
Once inside, Eun-jae passes the stairs when the grandmother calls after her, to tell her she could have a hard time. Well, that's reassuring.
Eun-jae said in a voice-over:... "A new class A new school year A new beginning Every time I these things face when I have nightmares I do not think new things as something. to look forward to, but something to be feared. "
Eun-jae finds her apartment and closes his eyes, took a deep breath before the bell to ring.
inside one of its soon-to-be roommate is in bed with her boyfriend, and her eyes open pop when she hears the bell. It is JUNG YE EUN ( Han Seung-yeon ), and she hurries out of her room, her clothes straightened. Your friend peeking over around the corner, and the two peer, to Ye-eun gets a call from Eun-jae in the intercom screen.
Meanwhile, place the grandmother Eun-jae outside the apartment. Ye-eun hear the grandmother's voice and freaks out, quickly pushing her boyfriend in her room. When the grandmother enters the passcode on the door, Ye-eun calls that it comes, and successfully hid shoes under her skirt her boyfriend just as the door opens.
Ye-eun smiles violently by her conversation with the grandmother and invites Eun-jae in the apartment. Concerned about her boyfriend discovered to be, it leads Eun-jae in her new room in a hurry and closes the door.
you are Eun-jae a quick overview of their roommate Eun-jae are actual roommate, a "really old" business major in her fourth year; Ye-eun is the third year studying nutrition; and Ye-eun roommate, a communications major, who does volunteer work away. The last housemate is another business major, the Ye-eun says something like an exhibitionist is.
as Ye-eun nervously babbling, at the door every so often looked her friend quietly tiptoed out of the apartment. When he texts he has made sure she snaps out of tour guide mode and leaves Eun-jae on her own.
Eun-jae sitting at her new desk and place under a box that opens. Inside she finds a photo of a ballet dancer.
They examined their new place, the. Multiples of coffee cups, toiletries and slippers in the common areas of the apartment finding In the living room, lists a panel of three house rules: no boys, no friends, and no boys who are friends. Also rule breakers will be kicked.
Eun-jae puts her shoes in an empty room on the shoe rack, then opens under the storage cabinet above. Inside they found a pair of pointe shoes that probably in the photo of the dancer was found it earlier and examined it curiously.
Eun-jae's washing her hair in the bathroom when the exhibitionist roommate, KANG Yi NA ( Ryu Hwa-young ) goes straight and sits to pee. Eun-jae is obviously uncomfortable, but Yi-na starts just in a conversation while she is taking care of business, then leaves the door wide open when she passes out again.
At the end of the day, Eun-jae makes it light and crawls off to bed. After a few moments, she looks at her roommate empty bed and switched on the light again, and tried to sleep.
In a fuzzy dreamlike sequence migrates a young girl in a school as the sounds of children laughing eerily in the background echo. A random montage of shots follows a girl outside in a field, Eun-jae for ballet shoes, the image of ballet dancers, a goldfish flopping on the floor to reach. Numbers flashing the scenes by. Uh, that's weird.
Eun-jae awakes from her nightmare when the lights off in her room. It's just her roommate who climbs into bed.
The next morning, Eun-jae wakes alone in her room. She is surprised to find post-it note of her roommate that they turn off the light, ask at bedtime because she thought it was considerate by allowing to stand.
Ye-eun finds Eun- jae in the kitchen and eyes Eun-jae hungrily toast. Ha, Eun-jae scores her toast devotion to Ye-Eun, who raves about Eun-jae homemade jam nut and helps to more. Yi-na joins them in the kitchen in just a towel and a poor Eun-jae - to route it, is to seek in Yi-na.
Since the three settle into breakfast, Eun-jae asks Ye-Eun, who is the dance major, it tells found over the photo. Ye-eun and Yi-na exchanged glances, and Ye-eun says vaguely that the dancer was a former roommate who lived in Eun-jae rooms.
Eun-jae starts boxes in her room unpacking, but then startled is to find that her roommate is in bed, under the covers. Eun-jae stammers an apology for her when her phone rings loud bothers. She takes the call from her mother outside on the roof, and is forced to say hello to a ajusshi (perhaps her stepfather). When she goes back down, missing only to see her roommate who is already out the door.
Back in her room, Eun-jae finds another Post-it note that these bring a her in text instead of talking about the call to the phone, and vibrate your phone.
When Eun-jae starts her new life at school, it is clear that she is a loner, has to address the problems up. She says nothing, if the guy standing next to her on the bus she holds with his sack beat their place instead of giving up. She says Ye-eun she did not go to the orientation. In her psychology class, beside her sat a man and lends her spring, but you can only watch when he leaves with the stylus at the end of class.
Eun-jae at home eating lunch on the TV, then running to get out of a couple of tangerines from a passing vendor. When she returns, she finally meets her roommate, YOON JIN-MYUNG ( Han Ye-ri ), face-to-face -. But Jin-myung does not pleased
Talk formally Eun-jae, Jin-myung first words to her are off the TV when leaving home. She then asks to keep communal areas clean and unplug appliances that are not in use.
Eun-jae leans Jin-myung and says hello. Jin-myung looks a bit surprised by this; it returns a little bow. Eun-jae attracts some mandarins to give Jin-myung, but Jin-myung is out the door again without a word. Disappointed, Eun-jae, sighs and says that she wants to go home. Seriously, I would feel the same way.
It is not easy for Eun-jae follow in the next few days. Ye-eun eating Eun-jae jam - a lot of it - straight from the jar. leave Jin-myung passive-aggressive holding post-it notes. Yi-na steps to Eun-jae shoes and push them out of the way first use the toilet. Ye-eun throws her underwear with Eun-jae of the load in the washing machine, and promised to hang the clothes to dry. Of course it does, and Eun-jae's do it stuck (by Yi-na she does not cry at first their stuff from the disc take).
is enticed with frustration stewing, Eun-jae is to write their own post-it notes, but then argue a garment in the living room by the sounds of Yi-na and Ye-eun through. Eun-jae ends for wearing Yi-na Top unknowingly trip Ye-eun, and the next thing she knows, Ye-eun and Yi-na is in an all-out battle. Ye-eun bites Yi-na, and Eun-jae takes a kick to the face when she tried to intervene.
The next morning, Ye-eun stomps around; Yi-nas mad that Ye Eun sour; and Jin-myung has Eun-jae more unwanted advice, to tell her to see what she says.
Ye-eun complains to her friend about what a psycho Yi-na, and shows him her bruises from the fight. Meanwhile complains Yi-na to a man about noon, the Ye-Eun is the psychotic one: She has a bite mark to prove it. It is not clear whether Yi-na is in a relationship with this man - if he freaks out about Yi-na splashing soup on his pants, she asks jokingly, which bought the outfit noona him. But when he moved to go clean the toilet, Yi-na gets angry and storms out.
Jin-myung will eat lunch in the cafeteria when she sees the dancer who used to be her roommate. The girl holds in her tracks when she sees Jin-myung, eyes wide, but Jin-myung looks down and does not recognize them.
Eun-jae's back in the classroom, and to see them terrified that another student she let her classmates borrow last time the same yellow pen. When Eun-jae asks the student says she found it on the floor. Annoyed Eun-jae looks at the man who borrowed the pen whose name YOON JONG-yeol ( Shin Hyun-soo ) return; she looks down quickly when he saw him start.
psychology lecture today is on the concept of "positioning", or, as the people with words to put themselves and others in relation to each other. Eun-jae finds this idea to her roommate Application: Jin-myung's cold, Yi-nas an exhibitionist, and Ye-eun's whiny - but they are all creepy. You wonder how they can find her position in the house.
She thinks that even when it's hard, they have to stand up for themselves. She introduces herself to do just that and provide snappy comebacks to her roommate, and I like this version of Eun-jae way better. She decides that from now on, it will say what they have to say and are not afraid to look at other people in the eye.
After class she passes on to Jong-yeol and demanded that he return her pen. He winks at her back, unsure of what they have to say, then stammers out an excuse. That's enough Eun-jae to meet that goes smiling.
Eun-jae returns home and finds her roommates friendly hanging at the kitchen table, as if the fight the night before never happened. Eun-jae heads to the refrigerator and is not happy find almost empty with her jar of jam.
She remembers the decisions they made in class, and finally says something: Who ate her jam, and why they should do it without asking? Your roommate think she's a great thing about do anything, and Eun-jae is quite overwhelmed -. By the end of the conversation, it is to look back on the floor and mutter
Eun-jae has another nightmare with some new scenes: The same young girl which we previously saw standing in a classroom, but nobody recognizes them. Someone peeks behind a door, and a cup of milk splashing on the floor. Eun-jae wakes with a start-up, breathing hard and drenched in sweat.
There is a new day, but nothing much has changed for Eun-jae. It is run over by someone bag on the bus. At the end of class, Eun-jae leaves in the middle of a message from a fellow student at a get-together for the psychology department. Jong-yeol in the same class again - he has a psychology major, along with Eun-jae - and watches Eun-jae leave with interest.
Eun-jae runs in Ye-eun on their way to the library, but Ye-eun is deflected by a text from her boyfriend. She dumps her stuff on Eun-jae, asked her to save her a place in the library. Eun-jae does exactly, but she's nervous to add seats to library order.
They eventually sends Ye-eun a text to ask if it is carried to future planning, then rubs his stomach, as she feels not good. Read Ye-eun not even Eun-jae text, as she and her friend hang out in a cafe.
No response from Ye-eun, Eun-jae returns Ye-Eun empty spot on their place and find a student hanging over. The student ends Ye-Eun stuff at the front desk to take over the stored seat to complain, shooting angry glances at Eun-jae all the time.
Eun-jae raises in the bathroom, and when she comes out, she sees the dancer, who lived at the next sink in her room. Eun-jae loses no time to tell her that they recently moved into their old rooms at the Belle Epoque, it then asks why she undressed - it was a problem in the house?
The girl's eyes are wide and she freaked out clearly, but everything she says that it was not an issue before the bath to leave in a hurry.
Eun-jae stops of Ye-Eun things at the front desk to pick up and will be chewed staffer from a library. To make matters worse, she has to haul all Ye-Eun stuff at home on the crowded bus, where they will be yelled at when they met with someone.
Ye-Eun again at home, chatting it. With Yi-na and Jin-myung She wonders why Eun-jae is not home yet, and Yi-na is calling them for the benefits of Eun-jae accept who they "Eun-soon" is called - ". Unaffected" a play on Eun-jae Name with the word for Yi-na and Ye-eun gossip about Eun-jae naivety wondered if all the girls from out of town are like them.
Ye-eun decides Eun-jae to call, and of course, it turns out, Eun-jae is already standing at the entrance all the time. Ye-eun smiles nervously and apologized for not in the library displays. Without a word, Eun-jae angry Ye-Eun falls books on the floor, then her purse actually raises from the .
Dropping her speech to banmal, Eun-jae asks Ye eun if it's Eun-jae thinks a joke. It deals more with the group: "Although I do not know, even if I an idiot seems like ... You do not need to be so you do not have to be so mean, you do not laugh at me." Tears in his eyes, as she continues: "you could be at least a little Art Not everyone is used here to live like you I find it so hard, I could die..!"
No one says anything, although the three roommates look do a little chastened. Eun-jae stomps to her room to throw herself on her bed and sobbing loudly enough to hear for the other girls. But the other three are really clueless, each wondering what goes with Eun-jae on.
In her room, Eun-jae continue to cry for her mother and called and said she wants to go home -. Not that it was a house that could go back
to Yi Cut -na face appear warped as she looks down on Eun-jae, who is ill in bed now. In her feverish haze, Eun-jae each their roommate looks on their check-in their visits with a blur of more nightmare-y interspersed scenes.
The next morning, Ye Eun, Yi-na, and Jin-myung clean the apartment. Eun-jae seems to feel better, but it does not come out her room until she has absolutely to use the bathroom.
your roommate seem happy Eun-jae and see about, and they exchange friendly greetings before they relieve themselves hurry. Considering that Eun-jae must have waited a really long time to go, Ye-eun jokes that there must be a hobby of her to keep things until they explode, heh.
Eun-jae empties the trash out of her room, and she discovers some crumpled post-it notes and opens it. They are designs of the notes rejected, the Jin-myung has her was abandoned, crossed with words and everything. Eun-jae realizes that Jin-myung had actually put time and care in these notes.
When Eun-jae, the girl at the kitchen table joins, Ye-eun She takes an instant porridge and tells her to take medicine after eating. Thankfully, Eun-jae apologizes meekly to Ye-eun for the day ahead, but Ye-eun told only her anger at the sinner to take, not the pocket, ha. It sets the slurry prior Eun-jae, and the three roommates watch as she takes a bite.
For the first time, Jin-myung speaks in banmal to Eun-jae to tell her to talk things inside and not accumulate. She says sure, they will have to learn to live with some things, but they should also speak, if something is really troublesome.
Yi-na Eun-jae says now begin, but Eun-jae can not bring something to say. So Ye-eun it kicks off, to tell Eun-jae that she too noisy types - to hear it from her room. will be
Eun-jae she says cautiously, then says Ye-eun that she heard all of Ye-Eun talking with her boyfriend. Mortified, Ye-eun looks around the table to confirm, and instead of answering outright, Jin-myung makes a hilarious impression of Ye Eun Baby Language. They each take turns asking each other, stop to do certain things, laugh and a newfound comfort to share.
on the bus to school, Eun-jae said that she thought it was just her, which retained; only she who was uncomfortable; only they walk on eggshells.
But then we see things from the perspective of the residents. Ye-eun put on headphones when Eun-jae typing to got loud. Yi-na squirmed to get out of the bathroom while waiting for Eun-jae. Jin-myung pondered over the words in her post-it to use, notes the need to scribble phrases and start
Eun-jae next :. "I thought it would not matter if I did not say anything. I was afraid I would be hated, if I said something. I felt like they would laugh at me. In this way, I thought that the other of were me different. More disrespectful. More ruthless. I thought she did not care. I was arrogant. "
is made on the bus, Eun-jae again through a bag. She thinks of herself that every person like they just, and they are just as anxious, and as a way she is. She closes her eyes for a moment, then finally spoke up and said to the man next to her that his bag her hits. He apologized profusely, and Eun-jae smiles.
The class Jong-yeol comes to Eun-jae and gives its yellow pen. He takes a seat in front of her; After a pause, he turns around and asks back Eun-jae her name.
After picking to the sound of laughter home a pair of slippers, Eun-jae back upwards. The last and final housemate SONG Ji-won ( Park Eun-bin ) has arrived, and Eun-jae of the group concurs (minus Jin-myung) for a beer.
Ji-won is warm and friendly, tells Eun-jae, be that was the first order of business for the residents to have their drinks and find out more about them. For example, she wonders Eun-jae have an older brother? If not, an uncle? HAHA. Eun-jae tells her youngest uncle in his forties, and Ji-won is shocked and said Eun-jae out. I kind of love them.
Eun-jae takes a long sip of her beer, then takes the opportunity to ask Ji-won, she went on her last roommate and why. Young, Eun-jae's really set on getting an answer to this question, it is not?
The mood on the table moves, since the three older residents hem and haw. Finally, Ji-won says it's no big deal: leave the roommate because she became pregnant. Eun-jae jaw drops (haha, Ji-won Eun-jae says to use protection), but Yi-na and Ye-eun reactions appear ... fishy. As the story more.
Yi-na wonders if Eun-jae thought the dancers leave because the residents had harassed her, and despite Eun-jae denial, it is clear that is exactly what she thought. Ji-won suggests that they take this opportunity to get together friendly by allowing them to tell each other their secrets.
comes to the time, Jin-myung home, the girls are pretty drunk and we see a shot of the five pairs of feet in slippers clothed. Ye-eun asks Jin-myung in the mystery telling game, but Jin-myung just says she wished she had to do to keep time, worth something secret. Eun-jae recapitulates what's been spilled already: see Yi-nas two different types, and they had done the work on their eyes but not her breast. Ye-eun weighed again 63 kilos (almost 139 pounds). Ji-won never get through the first day.
In a voiceover, Eun-jae says, there are two kinds of secrets that you can tell, and those who can not. And she has a secret that she never anyone can tell. Out loud, Eun-jae tells her roommate her secret is that to drink it started as a high school freshman.
Ji-won says drunk, that she has a real secret: she can see ghosts. Eun-jae told that her is real secret that she killed someone. Wait, what?
Ji-won claimed that there is a spirit with them in the room, pointing to the cupboard under the shoe rack, but none of the girls seem particularly shocked. Instead, says Yi-na something curious: "So, I think I did it then kill." And Jin-myung said that there is a person, she would want to die. Eun-jae with them looks in shock.
The party winds up as the girls stumble to put to bed (or, in Ji-won case in the dining pass out). Eun-jae looks around and thinks that her roommates are really strange people.
Final assembly of the dream / nightmare scenes flash by, but this time with scenes from the Yi-na and Jin-myung. The scenes begin and end with a shot of the housing where the Ji-won ghost lives supposedly.
COMMENTS
Well, that's not quite what I expected. Considering the premise of the show - the everyday trials and tribulations of five roommates college life to navigate - I was forward to look a little more about the cheerful, funny side, but I was surprised how melancholy the first episode as a whole feel.
Overall, the look and feel of the show, from the lighting and camera angle to the meager background music, are quite underestimated that fit more pensive and thoughtful tone of the story. But the show then took things in a completely different direction with its shrill dream sequences and storylines sighted at their former roommate, Eun-jae past, and Ji-won spirit ability. In those moments, I was confused about what I show watched - this should be a secret drama / thriller / horror story or a piece of life? Not that it necessarily be a terrible thing to go the way of a Mystery-infused show, but I was dropped because it seemed to come out of left field.
On the bright side, as I am. Our five heroines and the actors, they represent The characters are interesting, sometimes frustrating and unappealing, but in a way that it makes people realistically. My favorite parts of this hour were the interactions between our household if they scream were together, to laugh together, or just hang in the kitchen. I love that a down-and-out battle like the one between Ye-eun and Yi-na in one day might be too late (after their friends some cursing), and that the roommate on a sick every check-in concerned would Eun-jae after they pitched a fit with them the night before. By the way, could my favorite roommate just be Ji-won, the completely light up the screen in their five minutes of airtime at the end - her warm, funny personality is exactly what has to this group to solve, and their guards down let this first episode was all about Eun-jae and Park Hye-soo did.
course to convey a solid job the ups and downs of her character. Her bow is what we have seen before - a country girl new to the big city, discover their voice - but I liked the way the show deals with the realization that they through a rather narrow lens see her roommate all had together. Because we pretty much only things were shown by Eun-jae view we were on the trip with her and thought that Ye-un, Yi-na, and Jin-myung are the worst. It was fun with Eun-jae to discover that her roommates are not as bad as they first appeared actually. I also appreciate that Eun-jae is not so wide-eyed and innocent as they first came off as it makes it more interesting as a character - but I do not think that we make the way a [1945011zugehenbrauchen] actual killer ... right?
in its course only twelve episodes, the show is not a ton amount of time, the storylines for each of our girls forward and develop their friendships to move with each other. I saw enough good things in the first episode to remain optimistic and trust the show found its footing. This is my hope for the consequences to come: more of our roommates say banal, true stories of what it's like having five girls live in a house and try to school and life on the way to find out, and []; _taboola.push ({mode: "Thumbnails-a 'container' taboola Down Item Thumbnails" placement "Below Article Thumbnails" target_type, "Mix"});
