HOKKIEN DRAMA.... they never change don't they??
If you all have watched hokkien drama on TV, or maybe the
not so young people in your house have, you'd realize one thing....
they are actually all the same...
They all have almost the same plot, trying to give audience the same message,
and almost the same old actors and actresses....
Here are some common faces... you see them on TV, you're watching a hokkien drama...
Now... you'd also realize this... they always involve two big companies
competing against each other and power struggle... and tall skyscrapers which they'd
always show audience a glimpse before every scene that's taken inside it....
On top of that... gangsters and triads!!! Same old same old..... thing.....
They always have gangsters.... and one of the main character will be these
thugs.... DANG!!!!
Finally, each and every scene of a hokkien drama runs really long. It takes at least
5 minutes for a scene to finish... and the show doesn't seem to end, they run for
thousands of episodes (metaphorically)..... it's like squeezing all the CSI in to 1 season....
