![]() This role can either be played with negative and corrupt ideals, or as the hero, helping the town in its fight against criminals. ![]() You may know this role from your familiarisation of the ‘Sheriff's Badge’, which is a star-shaped badge that is worn on-duty. Sheriff: The ‘head’ of the town in terms of law enforcement (when in a rural town). ![]() I’ll briefly outline what these roles are about. Other characters such as a ‘Saloon Owner ’ and ‘Lawman' for example are also normally casted too, which make for a great dynamic respectively. When it comes to story, common plots in this genre include: conflicts over resources such as water and food revenge stories that emphasise that someone was wrongly killed plots that are centred around an outlaw gang causing destruction wherever they go, and anything and everything between – oh, and don’t be surprised if you see some sort of railroad either.Īll great western television needs these roles: ‘Sheriff(s)’, ‘Outlaw(s)’, ‘Gunslinger(s)’, ‘Rancher(s)’ and ‘Bounty Hunter(s)’. It’s the unknown of what’s next.įor People a Little Unfamiliar with this Genre The story is always interesting and action can come onto your screen instantly. The dynamics and relationships between each and every character is a great thing to watch, and the bromance can become really strong and heart-warming. A great western will always get these two things perfectly, it should keep you guessing on who would come out on top if ever in a Mexican standoff. I personally like the western genre because of the conflict and characters. In this article, I thought it would be nice to look at this underrated and now less-popular genre, and see how a K-Drama with ‘western genre’ influences could work in fantasy: exploring the best locations in South Korea in which it could be filmed, who could handle directing such a unique drama, and which actors would suit the main roles that are needed in a great western: Sheriff, Outlaws, Gunslingers, Rancher and Bounty Hunter. In fact, I was surprised that there is a clickable option for ‘Western’ as a genre, due to the no results when clicked on, and when hearing that it could be removed perhaps one day in the future, why not embrace the genre now with the question: What would the Western Genre look like if made into a K-Drama? I think it’s quite obvious to state why there has never been a K-Drama (or any Asian Drama for that matter) with loud yee-haw cowboys riding their horses, chewing dirty tobacco and drinking alcohol from sunrise to sunset.
