' }% O* h0 a, q3 k2 R9 `Though far from realistic, Flower Boy Ramyun Shop is the closest I’ve seen a drama come in recent years to capturing that youthful giddiness of young romance in the way of soonjung manhwas, aka shojo manga, aka those “pure comics” targeted to a largely female, youthful audience.

Characterized by a zany sense of humor — at times witty, at others quirky and random — Ramyun Shop is actually more than the fluff it presents itself as. Marketed as a eye-candy lightweight, it’s a better-written drama than you might suppose at first glance, with each episode converging on a theme that expresses itself in witty dialogue, extended metaphors, and occasionally a symbolic device. That it wraps this all up in an easy-breezy, fast-flowing plot means that this drama has successfully managed to seem effortless, without being effortless.

1 }' N. R3 @) |9 kThe show owes a lot to Jung Il-woo for its appeal, both in bringing the target audience and in bringing a ridiculous character to live and turning him into a living, breathing, emoting manchild you can’t help but feel for. It’s to Jung’s credit that he has not one noteworthy character but two, with his 49 Days Scheduler stealing scenes left and right in that show. " ]! G* a$ N3 u7 l4 e

With three episodes left to go, the jury’s still out on how this drama will shake out, so I’m reserving judgment on its overall score. But a drama that recalls the giddy flush of youth and ushers in laugh-out-loud hilarity will always be welcome in my book.

[' p C: D+ N$ F+ P' ?. L, O' N+ xIt’s interesting to me that Ramyun Shop feels like a drama written for the younger generation, by the younger genration. The cultural references, the use of slang, the attitudes — they bespeak a plugged-into-this-generation vibe that’s different from other trendies. No wonder, then, that it’s been such a hit with the teenage and twentysomething viewership, which shows that tvN’s onto something with their marketing strategy. But I say, just keep backing up the pretty with satisfying stories — you’ll capture that audience and then some.
