One of HBO's biggest original series in the 2000s was Enturage, Created by Doug Elin In 2004 and loosely based on the experiences of executive producer Mark Walberg. The comedy series was followed by Vincent Chase (Adrian Granier), a star -star star, whose close friends were not so subcutaneously riding his shoots on his success in Hollywood. After the eight -season show on the show and Continuing the features of the filmEnturage was remedied for audiences in South Korea in 2016 as K-Drama, or scripted Korean television show on any genre. Also, titled "Entorage", the Korean version was not particularly successful with the local audience, but it remains an interesting watch, especially for HBO's original fans.

Korean "escorts" follows the popular actor of 20 something Young-Ban (Seo Kang-Aonun, in the middle above), who is accompanied by his three friends while enjoying life in the spotlight. The Young-Bina is carefully bothered by CEO of his agency Kim Eun-Gab (Joe Jinin-Wong, right), who often clashes with Yang-Bine's best friend and childhood manager, Lee Jo-Jinin (Ongong-Min, left). The pressures come to the head, as the next film on a young Bine movie is withstanding chaotic production, while his personal life faces increased control. Feeling their friend-and gold ticket in danger, young people's friends gather around him to give him the confidence and support he needs to continue his career.

All in all, this looks like a standard HBO's "escort" arc in the early seasons of the show, but digging deeper into the K-drama reveals its key differences.

The Korean "escort" is a little darker in a tone by his US counterpart, not just because of the differences between the protagonists of the two plays. The Young-Bin is a self-absorbed and stuck celebrity who teaches us as much as it should be as the series concludes, if his life lessons are held at all. The analogue of the Nyoni Drama of the Show (Kevin Dillon), Ja Jun (Lee Quang-SOO, the second from the right), is a faded K-Pop, which feels more pathetic than the drama has done so far. And the excesses of fame, namely easily purchased medicines and fast women, are significantly minimized to fit in Korean sensibilities, mitigating the male fantastic aspect of the show.

Even with these changes, "escort" is never related to the Korean audience, with Viewership is significantly reduced After its premiere of the series. The series was running for standard in the 16-episodes industry, but there were never public discussions for additional seasons or spinoff, despite the final leaving the room open for a sequel. The more abrasive sense of humor than most K-dramas can affect the muted response to the show, as well as the potential lack of localized enthusiasm for its American original material. Unfortunately, the show is currently unavailable to the United States, at least through legal means.

Korean "escort" will never be recognized as one of the best k-dramas of all timeBut it definitely creates fascinating viewing. And, at least on paper, Remain K-drama of "escort" makes much more sense than that of Film for Fantasy Zac Efron.
