As this is a
week with lots of assignments to work on, we had a drama
screening session for the members to relax and enjoy while learning more about
the use of Korean language in dramas. This week, we watched Reply 1997
(starring A-pink’s Jung Eun Ji and Seo In Guk), which was a big hit in South
Korea back in year 2012-2013. This drama features how the main characters grow
up from young adults at age 18 to how they experience their first love, first
job and more.
It is not
only humorous, but also makes use of the Korean Busan and Seoul accent, which
is also something that we had noticed.
The Busan accent is much more muffled than the Seoul dialect, which is much clearer. It also requires a lot more ‘tongue rolling’ work to create the Busan accent. I personally quite like the Busan accent as it is more expressive :)
