Date: 2013-07-12 06:11 pm (UTC)the voice that dubbed Victoria's was annoyingly sweet

Date: 2013-07-13 01:05 am (UTC)That's totally new to me. Back In the philippines actors would use the standard dialect even though they're from different regions. And here in the US, actors have language coaches if they were to portray a character with a certain accent or whatnot.

Date: 2013-07-13 07:46 pm (UTC)I also don't know why they dub..... maybe the mic quality is bad during filming? Or just they don't trust the actors voices to portray what the director wants?? Orz

Date: 2013-07-13 07:48 pm (UTC)Also since Nickhun is portraying Chinese American, it's ok if he doesn't really speak Chinese. Pretty accurately describes a lot of the Chinese Americans around me.

oops, didn't reply correctly. trying again
