I agree with most of what you said except for one thing. The fact that more sides to the bully are shown is not…
I think you have misunderstood what I am saying ...first I knew that people are not absolute black , they have grey shades that add to depth of story ..it is not what I am feeling , it is what artist screen writers are failing ..the character writing of bully here is pathetic and stupid ..there is no proper insight into her behaviour and character, she is just a dichotomy , there are no layers ...it's not real ..she is just a poor plot device...for example if somebody capable of sexual harrasment then that person should have some darker thoughts and mind but we don't see any glimpses of that
I think I have already mentioned that through such poor writing , one tends to trivialise the impact of bullying ..it's not that you don't show the bullying and her intention , rather you show the act but failed to show its impact as if nothing happens
I am just feeling sad of the news how he has been replaced from two movies , though I knew it but still feeling depressed today ...the thing is he is not doing anything other than sad tropics and there are no other project lining up is giving me anxiety attack ...I hope sad tropics change everything and I wish him to see him in Netflix drama like squid game and others
Let's be clear and straight here about bullying and I hope these asian webtoon artist and producers get some adult education because they really need it ...what ha Nuel did to we Jin by exposing her undergarments was not only a bullying but a SEXUAL HARRASSMENT not lesser than a rape ...sexual harrassment need not necessarily happened to women by men but it could be done by female to female , male to male ....To anybody , there always a abuser and victim , position of power and powerless
I am not saying that do not show reality , I know in real life these things happen and we should not shy away from showing in media but the problem is how they show it especially in Asian media ..first they treat bullying as some sort of mere misadventure as insignificant as losing your pencil oneday They fail to show after effects on victims ..some sort of crying scene will be enough ..people who are sexually harassed have long terms devastating impact on them whether it is done by women or men In the show ae Jin just went back to her previous self, no anger no struggle ..just one scene is enough wow
Stop showing bullies as sympathetic character or relatable ones before proper redemption ..it's just a lazy writing like writers try to say "oh look this poor ha Nuel she is having tough exterior but in real she is very nice with a heart of gold who cares for her mother " .....it's not good character writing , its just an excuse for later events ...a person who is capable of sexually harassing , physically hurting must have a very damaging psyche and personality or external environment ...but I know just an apology will solve everything between ae Jin and ha Nuel wow ...just imagine a man had done the same thing to any girl ...would it be so easy to forgive him
But the way it is being treated as just insignificant event infact has grave potential to normalise bullying and cause misunderstanding what sexual harrassment consist of
I wish this was a 20 ep drama. Honestly there’s so much plot for them to play around with. Still, at least we…
Exactly , means we only got two scenes between the leads in yesterday's episode , inorder to wrap up everything we need more episodes so that romance will gets its due time
I didn't expect that this drama to be good , it's good to extend it with further episodes with proper satisfactory ending because most saeguk drama at the end just entrapped in fighting against the enemy and we get hardly any romance or moment between leads ..
Really I didn't expect the show to be good ,I thought this would be like anyother contract based marriage drama , like cold tough guy will get married to manic pixie girl for the most lame reason and certain out of place events made them fall in love , that's all ...nope drama is not like this , drama infact is a story how women survive in ancient world .. .most of dramas portray stereotypical female villains and dumb female lead , but here women have reason to do everything even for bad thing , they are not fighting for man's love instead they are fighting for power and securing their family even by any means , for their personal ambitions , for their children ....they are forming alliances and friendships ...this drama tell how women play such important role in power struggle among clans and families which is often seen as men's world Female lead is not dumb , she is able to comprehend what's going on I like how shrewd first wife was ,even on her death bed she successfully secure his son's position 😂😂 .. As for male lead , his composure remain what he was like ,after falling in love ..he didn't white wash his face and put lipstic like other ancient Chinese drama leads where they just try to look more beautiful then female , he did not become like puppy after falling in love and took 180° change in personality ...it felt more realistic and we able to relate with him
I think this will be great opportunity for song Hye kyo to showcase her acting diversity ....moreover I love grey protagonist ..they appear more humane to me ....
So the tutor is preparing his sister for the cp. just like in the original yi san drama. Even in that one at least…
I just don't like him seeing , he is in true sense very creepy ...he has this very psychopathic look on his face ..the actor who is playing must try other villian roles , he will do wonder
you guys really need to stop making excuses like this is a mature female lead you just don’t get it and all,…
The writers ,instead of breaking the stereotypes , asserted them that single old women are sad , even they are successful , they will never be happy until or unless they don't find a man to love them ..thy are promiscuous ....I don't deny these don't happen but watching this line of story again and again strengthened this prejudice against single career oriented women ..that's why I don't like it ..she remained damsel in distress even becoming top notch position in fashion industry or CEO of company (encounter) ...

.most of dramas portray stereotypical female villains and dumb female lead , but here women have reason to do everything even for bad thing , they are not fighting for man's love instead they are fighting for power and securing their family even by any means , for their personal ambitions , for their children ....they are forming alliances and friendships ...this drama tell how women play such important role in power struggle among clans and families which is often seen as men's world
Female lead is not dumb , she is able to comprehend what's going on
I like how shrewd first wife was ,even on her death bed she successfully secure his son's position 😂😂 ..
As for male lead , his composure remain what he was like ,after falling in love ..he didn't white wash his face and put lipstic like other ancient Chinese drama leads where they just try to look more beautiful then female , he did not become like puppy after falling in love and took 180° change in personality ...it felt
