Sky Castle: Dynamic drama that took over South Korea

Updated: Feb 24, 2019


 

Quick Thought


I recently just completed Sky Castle after a binge of about 2 days ago after hearing about the high ratings and popularity it has been gaining in South Korea and with me planning on watching this i thought "oh, this might be just another one of those cliche, stereotypical dramas." And, that turned out not to be the case, Sky Castle has to be one of the most and will be one of the most influential and memorable K-dramas of 2019. It brought along many sentimental feelings of happiness, doubtfulness, angst, and many more.

Synopsis


SKY Castle, the name of the luxury private town where wealthy doctors and professors live. It was built by the first president of Joo Nam university, which is the best university in Korea. Most of the residents are doctors and law school professors of the university. The drama describes all the ins and outs of how the noblewomen make their children enter the top university. It is a comic satirical drama that closely looks behind the scenes at the materialistic desires of the top upper-class parents in Korea, who vigorously push forward their plans to make their family succession of doctors and lawyers, from father to son.

OST

This has to be one of my most favorite OST of the year. Not only because it was able to capture the main essence of the song but also because it was able to draw the audiences emotion in a way that as many fans have revealed "every time you hear "We All Lie" by Ha Jin in the background you could tell something was about to go down" and honestly they were never wrong. The suspense built up by this OST was impeccable and it left a positive image.




Thanks for reading!
