Titanic
The fanfic storyline is like a sequel to
the original movie. Rose, who is pregnant with Jack’s baby, tries to run away
and live as a lower class woman but is caught by Cal. They stay at a hotel
where Rose meets Jack who had also survived. They secretly meet up and plan to
run away.
This fanfic has a happy ending for Jack and
Rose. I think this worked well because the original movie had a sad ending
making people feel heartbroken due to the characters’ love story, so by writing
a happy ending it fulfills people’s longingness for Jack and Rose’s happiness.
The author has uploaded this fanfic in separate
chapters. By doing this, the author has created breaks and each ending of a
chapter is during an important event therefore it makes readers curious and
wants to keep reading.
I found this easy and fun to read as the
plot flows at a reasonable pace.
August Rush
This fanfic plot continues from the ending
of the original film. Louis and Lyla meet Evan after his concert. Louis and
Lyla still have feelings for each other. The three of them return to Lyla’s
home. They start a new life as a family and the whole fanfic is about them
getting to know each other.
This fanfic was created because the author
wanted more from the ending and there must be others who would agree. Although
the story is a good insight into the characters’ new life, the writing style is
quite distracting. Most of the text is conversations in speech marks, lacking
description of any settings. There are many grammatical and spelling errors
that brings the quality of this fanfic down. Sometimes the author is unclear of
the logical flow of the plot making readers confused therefore I didn’t enjoy
reading this fanfic as well others who left negative reviews.
Spirited Away
This fanfic is a sequel to the original movie.
Haku and Chihiro are living in their own world when Yubaba orders Haku to bring
Chihiro back because her parents died leaving her no reason to stay in the
human world. He brings her back and she reunites with old friends such as Lin.
The story revolves around Haku and Chihiro’s love story.
This fanfic is confusing to read because the
author makes it unclear about which characters are saying what. I had to read
the text over a few times to understand at was going on. I think the reason why
this fanfic is unclear is because the author is unsure and has not planned a
strong storyline. This can be seen when chapters are very short with the author’s
comment on not having any ideas. In the story there is a scene where Haku is
drunk which I think is awkward as we know these characters from a children’s
film.
Dream High
This fan fiction is a Sam Dong centric fan
fiction on the night of the Grammy's. The author imagines and develops the very
last part of the drama. Sam Dong is getting ready for his performance and looks
back to the path he took to get famous. Included in his memories is Hye Mi, the
girl who helped him achieve his dream and whom he loved. He realizes he must
forget her.
This fanfic is written with lots of detail
so readers feel like they are there with the character. The author used Dream
High's original music as well, so this fan fiction is like a film script. The
original story of this drama has Hye-Mi and Sam Dong's love but this fan
fiction is the author's own creative writing. The author is a huge fan of Sam
Dong and changed the love story so that the Hye Mi would not end up with Sam
Dong. This fanfic is a good read for other fans of Sam Dong who were not
pleased with Hye Mi.
You're Beautiful
This fanfic is set in a scene from the
drama series. It is the final episode where the two lovers Mi Nyu and Tae Kyung
are finally together after overcoming the obstacles to their love. It is at Tae
Kyung’s concert. He is on the stage singing and spots her in the crowd and runs
to Mi Nyu.
I found this fanfic interesting because it
as a unique approach to writing a fanfic. The author uses a song by FT ISLAND (a
member from this band acted in the drama) and the fanfic is inspired by this
song. The story is fitted between the lyrics that match the situation of the
characters. I think this was a simple but effective way to show emotions and
thoughts of the characters. I also liked the structuring of this fanfic, each
paragraph was about one character so it was clear and easy to understand.
