This week’s topic is thanks to the suggestion of @anne18 and @kurama — they started chatting about K-drama opening title sequences and it’s definitely a topic worth chatting about!
A lot of attention is paid to crafting a drama’s opening titles, but in the past it was hard to even see them as an international fan — desperate searches for episodes on the interwebs usually meant sacrificing that. Now, however, the story is different, and in recent years it’s been a joy to watch opening sequences that are so creative and do a great job of setting the drama’s tone. Whether it’s something interpretive and thematic (like the opening titles of Little Women or Tomorrow), something that just rocks the OST and sets the mood (like Happiness’s opening credits), or the recent move towards animated sequences like we saw with Business Proposal and One Dollar Lawyer — opening titles can be a drama to enjoy in themselves.
Are you an opening credits watcher? What are some of your favorite drama opening title sequences?
