#Day23 An innovative drama you watched in 2024
More than innovative, I found #TheTrunk atypical in the K-drama world. Though it's not one of my favorites, it doesn't sugarcoat violence or sex and it does show everything.

The Trunk (2 / 2 posts)
(2024 - Netflix 8 1:03 eps)Although the story is languid, the characters are so dysfunctional that you reel from one shock to another. The contrast is excellent. What act or thought makes someone unworthy of love? How do you demonstrate love? Another ending that after consideration is perfect, although initially it felt out of place.

The Trunk (1 / 2 posts)
(2024 - Netflix 8 1:03 eps)A divorced wife whose ex-husband still loves her applies for a new wife for him from a contract marriage company that provides 1-year contracts. The new couple slowly gets to know each other, but unresolved past traumas arouse suspicions & jealousies & crazy things begin to happen. The synopsis on MDL is wrong again - yes, there is a mystery, but that is not the story & neither is the romance.
Warning - sex, drugs, & suicide are depicted.
The pacing, aesthetics & sound create a sense of isolation fitting the emotionally damaged characters we meet. They all carry baggage (the trunk) that makes their connections to others extremely tenuous. They use contracts, drugs, other people, & avoidance to deal with their problems instead of facing them. The acting is amazing, with some profound dialogue to make us think about relationships differently.
