For what I have been told, "Dramatic" means "in your face" or like "Fantastic!!!" in an exciting kind of way. Not "dramatic" as in General Hospital-dramatic... Get my drift?? Again, I think the use of "Dramatic" is more meanigful to the japanese in an 'engrish' sense and way of thinking.

They aren't allowed to smile or wave at the guests, and their rehersals were focused on making everything into the look and feeling of a fashion show. Interesting.
