What's the Story?
In DRAMAWORLD Claire Duncan (Liv Hewson, Santa Clarita Diet) works at her dad's sandwich shop, but just can't get into the groove of her life the way she gets invested in the lives of her favorite K-Drama characters. When a freak accident transports her into a different world, Claire soon discovers she's visiting a place where K-Drama happens all of the time -- in fact, it's the universe where K-Drama happens with K-Drama rules. Another visitor to Dramaworld named Seth (Justin Chon, Blue Bayou) knows the way things work and shows Claire around. But are things the way they seem? What happens when Claire gets involved with the inhabitants of Dramaworld?
Is It Any Good?
What works best in this series is the tongue-in-cheek parody of the perfect K-Drama world--and its rabid fans. The first season of Dramaworld was aired in 2016 in 10-minute episodes that used the short format to dramatic effect. The story was told succinctly, the punchlines were funny, and the cliffhangers were copious. The second season uses a longer format, delving into the sci-fi element of the show a little more deeply.
The romance feels juicy, and the comedy can be very funny. When it takes itself too seriously, the show loses momentum. Teens and adult fans of K-Drama or parodies will enjoy engaging with this outside/inside take on a genre with a very devoted following.
