Maybe and this is just a huge maybe... most child sponsorship programs in S. Korea are in those countries? So…
This is a very shallow drama. They are not trying to talk about charities or poverty. They just want to show "oh look he's sponsoring children instead of having his own" so their point here is to convey that visually. And yes, Koreans are known to be very racist. If that makes you drop this, then your feelings are valid. But I feel that we must also realize that we can't push our own ideals to others especially the whole production team of this drama.
When will korean writers leave Black people alone... Like if you only mention Black people as a charity case or…
Maybe and this is just a huge maybe... most child sponsorship programs in S. Korea are in those countries? So if they wanted to show child sponsorship that would immediately resonate with Korean viewers visually, that's what they'd show. Their primary audience is S. Korea so they'd appeal to that segment first and foremost.
they gotta buy the rights from somewhere, can't just steal a plot that was written by another author and change…
You cannot buy the plot and not talk about it. You know even with changes or even the worst b-quality adaptation of a work still helps the original creator and increase attention to the original work and that creator's other works.
First two episodes Chinese, English, Indonesia, Malay and Thai subtitles on Telegram https://www.patreon.com/posts/dreaming-of-2024-105289706?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link
It is censored, the bromance may get strong but there could be hints at subtle Bl like the untamed for example…
In the first 2 episodes, none of that. It does seem like Se Kyung has been keeping an eye on Yi Heon before the soul-switch happened so he noticed the change. Yi Heon also mentioned looking at Se Kyung in his diary. Meanwhile, DeukPal as Yi Heon doesn't show any attraction to Se Kyung. So we don't know how far it'll go.
they rejected my edit request because i should show proof. like how do i say i watched it and that actor isn't that character and i haven't seen his face in the episodes so far.
so far he's not shown much ( i skipped his scene s- i hope that wasn't important haha)
