Philippine Remakes Of Korean Dramas - Good Or Undesirable?

Have you ever discovered yourself watching a random television series on a Philippine channel? And as the story continues to unfold within this episode, do you start to wonder why the storyline appears so familiar? Then the show stops to provide approach to a commercial break and also you are greeted by the title of certainly one of your preferred Korean dramas.

Philippine tv stations are very fond of pinoy tv  displaying original versions of dramas from Korea. A few of them flop, but the majority of them turn into actually famous among Filipinos. Then right after these television stations reap the rewards of showing the proper tv show, they choose to squeeze all the things they can out with the drama by producing a localized remake of it.

Purists will argue that these remakes are no more than poor imitations or bastardized versions in the original Korean drama. Even so, those that are much more open minded argue that all those involved within the production and filming of these dramas are in a position to infuse the local Philippine culture and traditions into the storyline of those dramas.

I am personally on the fence on the subject of this problem. While I have set to determine a Filipino version of a Korean show that may be at par or far better than the original, I think that the television stations are slowly finding there. I imply if Japan and Korea were in a position to produce fantastic remakes of Taiwan's Meteor Garden then the Philippines certainly has the potential to do so at the same time.

Correct now the leading two tv stations inside the Philippines are showing remakes of two from the better Korean dramas in recent years. GMA channel 7 is displaying its rendition of Stairway to Heaven, when ABS-CBN channel 2 is displaying its rendition of Lovers in Paris. I am particularly much more fond on the latter since I consider they've a improved crop of actors.

Still, I have yet to determine Philippine remakes of Korean dramas which might be as very good as the original.
