the battle/characteristics of the idol drama.

dang, dang, dang, dang~~~~
That is what I am going to write about in this blogpost. =)

1: Storyline
Top two drama have the same old storyline - ma que bian feng huang.
-He see her, she see him. He not happy about her, she not happy about him. But they keep on seeing each other. Then he bump into her, she bump into him. Then their heart go thum, thum, thum.
-He like somebody, she like somebody. But that somebody don't like her and him. Then somehow, they end up together.
Summary: coincidence lah!

2: Actors/actress
-Beautiful, handsome. BUT may not be famous. It might be the show make them famous. Evidence: position 1, 2, 3?, 4, 5, 6, 7?, 8, 9, 10, 11.
-Must not have a accent or else kena shoot by audience. Evidence: Zhang Dong Liang, William Li Wei Lian.
-Main lead able to sing. Evidence: All top 11.

3: Main character in show.
-Handsome lah, pretty lah, or either is very ugly then become very pretty. But comfirm got something that make the other one xin dong.
-Somehow very blur, insensitive, then don't know how to think about others, but the other one comfirm will like this person somehow.
-Then because of face, never confess. Want to confess, then have something happen.

4: Different companies
-Different company=different method. In top 11, 7 is under SET, then the rest is under GTV. And so can see the different standard. Other than this, SET have original scripts, but GTV take from comics.
-BUT different management company=different method. Ai yo, you think that you don't like that person/company then that person cannot survive in entertainment circle meh? WRONG! Jstar is one BIG, BIG, BIG example. You think that they will die when 5566 is not popular, or when 183 club is left with 3. But their 'lovely' boss-Sun Zhong/doreamon, is clever. Who thought that Ming Zhong will get such high rating? The (supposed-to-be(minus the no.2))top 3 drama got jstar people as main lead (as in at least one male/female lead), but if count those got ke chuan/not main lead, then is 6. So don't think that those not famous act one the rating will be low. THIS IS A WRONG THINKING!
-In comparison, bands like Bang Bang Tang, Fei Lun Hai, the show with them in, might not have such a good rating. Example: Bang Bang Tang, up till now their show average never break 3. I might be wrong)

5: Couple and rumors
(I know this part is going to be ironic)
-See them kiss here, hug there in the show then think that they are together. Ai yo, THIS IS IDOL DRAMA LAH!
-But also got a few is really 'suspicious' that up till now still got people catch ghost. Example: Mingen/Ming Dao and Qiao En (now not really, but still got)
-But some fans don't know that when the show is still shooting they might be in character.
-Rumors=media write one=might be the company give one=help the show to have higher rating(even though i don't know why)=then fans think they are really together.
-But also got some "couple" is good friends in real life. Example: Ming Dao and Qiao En.

6: Part 2?
-NEVER, NEVER, NEVER shoot part 2. The rating will be really going down. Up till now, all the drama that got shoot part 2 the rating is really... (I know, you know can aready)
-Reason? Simple lah!
not good=one person tell another person, then alot of people know=rating start to go down=the management start to promote all over again~=start to ruin the wonderful image of the original show in your heart. Even worse, you might start hating that show. Example: E Zuo Ju Er Wen.
good=one person tell another person, then alot of people know=rating rise=celebrate/qing gong=then change version of ost, disc lah(but don't change too many time, later backfire)= fans happy, company happy. No example, =(

7: Behind-the-scene people
Scriptwriter
VERY IMPORTANT AH!
-Among the most important thing in a drama. No good scriptwriter=no good script=no good drama=no people watch=poor rating=affects artise pricing. Example: Ying Ye 3+1.
Director
Also very important.
-Cannot shoot properly=cannot show the feel=cannot make the show touching=nobody want to watch. A good director example: Chen Ming Zhang (I know I am bias, but he is my favourite director. =x)
Overall scriptwriter
-Ai yo, I really don't know why have this position lor. That time Ying Ye 3+1 add this only, the rating... But anyway, i think that this is the one that make the script seems nicer or drraaagggg the whole show. Example: Ying Ye 3+1 and Ming Zhong Zhu Ding Wo Ai Ni.
Assitant Director
-Eh... Actually I never hear much about those people in this post doing much in taiwan drama leh. But I think is to help the director bah.
The others
-Also important, but I cannot remember.

8: New ones
-Now so many people acting, see until blur aready. But all is those usually can sing one or is model.
-Then start to say that who replace who who. Then the fans start screaming at each other. Example: Ruan Jing Tian replace Ming Dao. (but their fans never scream at each other and they are good friends.)
-But usually you see them BOOM then nothing happen after that show until their next show or event. Example: Ming Dao.

Conclusion: Idol drama nice to watch, but then... Haiz... Anyway, this is entirely in my view, and please tell me if I wrote something wrongly. Disclamier: Some of the dramas, I didn't watch, so my view might not be accurate.
*catch ghost= catch any suspicious points between two person.

The position I mention eariler is about the rating. It is shown below. (Taken with permission from Rui blog with editing.)
Author note: Rating might change any time, as there is alot of drama being shown. The rating might not be true, but i tried to double-check. New (edited) rating are all taken from chinese wikipedia. Colour-coded by the higest per part rating(beside the show name).
