I don't like the direction this drama is taking. What's with every one and making it seem that her not getting…
I don’t know how common it is in Korean society, but it’s relatively common where I come from. A mutual friend’s husband of thirty years had cheated on their wife and had another family, and she hesitated for a while before getting a divorce. Even then, she received backlash. I’ve had a few cases of this happen within my community, and it disgusts me more than what I can properly convey.
This was a hard show for me to watch, specifically because of the sensitive subject at hand. Realistically, I’d hardly condone this in real life mainly because of the problematic power dynamic at play here. In real life I wouldn’t get to experience and view the world through people’s lives like this, in the lens of a visual piece of media. However, when I have a clear view on how the characters think, what they’re thinking, and how they handle their life, I am inclined to want to root for them. Because I am able to see the world through their light, I can better view the dynamic of their relationship and how they treat each other— a closer look than I’d usually have. In this show it was handled realistically, and I could see how the love was portrayed between the two leads—it was unconditional.
I was about to blast you for half of your takes but you rated “dali and the cocky prince” and “mine” properly so I’ll excuse the rest. I’m proud you have moderate taste
Usually when I’m watching shows I don’t even bat an eye when there are passionate kissing scenes half the time because I’ve gotten desensitized to them, but the way Lu Chen looks at Gui Xiao already gives me butterflies and has me squealing
Between the main leads, no. The main female lead has a niece who’s in a love triangle currently, but it doesn’t take up much screentime since they’re supporting characters
Maybe lots of young people won't watch this drama because the female lead is not pretty like other actresses but…
She looks beautiful to me, to be honest. It’s sad to see how actors/actresses are treated as something that go bad after some amount of time, that they’re less desirable in certain roles after said age. She’s skilled and is able to own her role as haeng seon, so I hope she gets recognized more for that rather than being judged on her age initially
This plotline is long since over, but since it keeps coming up lately... I need to say this. I can ABSOLUTELY…
To me, I understand that she wanted to be with Taehee again. But trying to use the driver’s death in order to “eliminate” taehee’s problem so he can heal is disgusting. Her history with him doesn’t mean anything if he’s trying to avoid her. He doesn’t need his brother’s killer dead (also the legal implications that action holds), he needs to be able to communicate his trauma so he can properly grieve. Also I don’t know how she doesn’t see it but he looks so pained to be around her…that’s a great indication that he probably doesn’t want her around
Episode 7 is out! Watch with English subtitles here: https://donsubbers.wordpress.com/2022/12/08/seishun-cinderella-ep-07/
Thank you for all the hard work. I’m not a subber, but volunteering to subtitle shows out of your own personal time with no direct benefit is admirable. I know I’m saying this out of the blue, but your work is well appreciated
Did a good amount of the members of Theia really leave because of the prophecy? Or because of yoomin’s death? I mean, I don’t know if it really matters, but know I’m curious how that will play out
That’s because I think a lot of people especially non asians do not understand why children continue to bow…
Marriage and conception discussions are downright terrible to go through, especially if you’re going against the norm. I’d get disowned if I said I’d want to date someone of the same gender
Dong Jin: Yes
When I tell you I screamed— I’m eating this up. The way they yearn for each other has me on the floor rolling 😭
