I want to see this drama, and I want to see Ha Young as the FL. If SBS is afraid of toxic k-netizens, it should license the streaming rights to the global platforms where Ha Young's fans will welcome her with high ratings.
Great role for Ding Yu Xi. Allowed him show what a fine actor he is. I'd never seen Deng En Xi in anything before. She's so young, and yet a commanding presence.
Waiting to see just how bad public opinion will force SBS to put the drama on hold indefinitely which will not…
They could license the drama to global streaming platforms, not release it on Korean TV, and still make a profit, provided their sponsors agree. Btw, the Ha Young "controversy," has added 400,000 international fans to her Instagram followers. She's now at 1.4 million.
Squid Game is a Netflix drama and is was a massive hit internationally so it didn't matter to them if Koreans…
Ha Young, who was a big hit in season one of Trauma Code, dropped out of season 2 because she didn't want the hate she was getting from netizens to affect the drama or fellow actors and crew members. Netflix owes her bigtime for her decision, and I hope it leads to more Netflix produced dramas for her when the "controversy" blows over.
Honestly its messed up that she is being cancelled for something she didn't even do or know about. A lot of Koreans…
Politicians in Korean Assembly are using her to gain votes from the netizens doing the cancelling. She's fluent in English having gone to grad school at New York University, so I hope she's looking for an American agency.
NEVER forget your own history! Koreans must always defend the memory of those who were gone bc of the colonization.
She posted a long, written apology on Instagram for not knowing what her great-grandfather did 100 years ago, but that wasn't enough for them. They want her gone. Now, because of them, the government has begun a whole investigation and she's lost sponsorship, modeling contracts, and has had to step down from her role in Trauma Code 2. And all of this even though it's written in the Korean Constitution that "No citizen shall suffer unfavorable treatment on account of an act not of his own doing but committed by a relative."
Several posts on Instagram have said that Ha Young has decided not to appear in season 2 of Trauma Code. Meanwhile, SBS still hasn't decided what to do about The Long Shot Trial, which will complete filming in a few days and in which Ha Young is the FL. (They'll probably AI another head on her body and call the bot Samantha.) So, once again, the unforgiving k-people have succeeded in destroying a promising, hardworking actress.
Advice to Ha Young: Do not give up or give in! You went to grad school in New York and can speak English. Get yourself a Hollywood agent because there are more and more good roles being offered to Asian actresses these days.
Strong leads, love relationship based on respect, fearless brainy FL, modern take on misogyny, good pacing, dialogue that I haven't heard in every other costume c-drama before, some of the villains getting what they deserved well before the end. 10/10
If it weren't for you I would've never restarted this drama. I'm on episode 13 and I am hooked!
No, GHJ's divorce was much earlier--15 years earlier! Oh, now she's also the "ambassador" for Tiffany! Too bad her ex-mother-in-law, who regarded her as "common," can't see her now.
She's not stupid. Had she known would she have bragged about her great-grandfather?
I see. So, the "crimes" she has committed are ignorance and, as a result of her ignorance, boasting about the four generations of doctors in her family. And the punishment netizens and some activists want her to receive is the canceling of her career. Would they accept a large sum of won from her to help the families of the freedom fighters instead? Apparently, that's more than the various Korean governments have offered through the years.
SBS, if South Koreans don't want to watch it because of Ha Young's great-grandfather, don't air it on South Korean TV and just license the completed drama to Netflix for international viewers who like Ha Young's acting, think she's being unfairly victimized, want to watch The Long Shot Trial, and don't care if it's an adaptation of a Japanese TV series.
Deng En Xi in anything before. She's so young, and yet a commanding presence.
