(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Jeong-Hyun Lee, Jeong-Jin Kim = The original webtoon drama, which is very difficult to satisfy both the original reader and new viewers, has boomed after a long time.
‘Wonderful Rumors’ is on the verge of surpassing 10% viewer ratings (Nielsen Korea paid furniture), and is hitting the highest score since OCN opening each time, and Netflix’Sweet Home’ has succeeded in getting a topic by shooting a flare from the K-Creature drama.
The common point between the two works is that the existing images are vividly brought to life by realizing the background and characters in the webtoon.
Cho Byeong-gyu, who plays the title role of’Wonderful Rumors’, resembles the rumors from the original webtoon, and the action of the Counters four members is much hotter and exciting as the movement is added. The various demons that make Counters’ performance stand out are thrilling on weekend nights.
‘Sweet Home’ also put the greatest effort in realizing the green home appearing in Naver’s webtoon, and played a big role in raising the creepy atmosphere of the play to its peak. Hyun-soo, the protagonist who has become a monster, is played by actor Song Kang, who has eyes like a deer, and embodies a character that is a monster but does not lose humanity.

The tvN drama’Goddess Advent’, which is supported by young female viewers, is also based on the webtoon of the same name by the author Meow, and the unique cuteness is transferred to the video. Joo-kyung, the female protagonist who covers her appearance complex with make-up, boasts a high synchro rate, with a lovely charm actor Moon Ga-young.
For a while, the drama based on the webtoon might have stagnated, but there is an analysis that the reason that the dramas based on the webtoon have recently reached their peak again is that the viewers have become accustomed to the unrealistic setting of webtoons.
On the 26th, popular culture critic Jung Deok-Hyun said, “Webtoons are used quite a lot as original data for dramas, so the work itself has increased, and the’manga-like’ part was viewed as a negative meaning in the past, but recently, it is a trend to accept it. said.
Ha Jae-geun, a popular culture critic, analyzed, “As several successful works come out, we are increasingly looking for original webtoons. Since we have succeeded in a platform called webtoons, it has already been verified, so there is a tendency to dramatize safe works with many fans.”

However, there are also concerns that if the number of dramas based on webtoons increases excessively, pure creative plays may become a market structure that is difficult to see.
Critic Jung said, “The reason for remake of the original work is to reduce the risk, and in that case, the creations that come out on the premise of the drama lose their chances.” “Of course, on the contrary, webtoon writers also participate in the production of the drama. It also has the effect of helping each other through’.’
Critic Ha predicted, “If you just adapt the original, the ability to create pure drama scripts may be deteriorated in the industrial aspect. There is a fear that the training of new writers may be reduced.”
