ep 12 its getting boring, ml is bad, fl is nice and the monk just learns a basic story of not all demons r bad not all humans are good. probably gonna drop.
does anyone have a similar drama to this one please ??? i still can't get over it for 2 years till now :"(
I know the other person reccomended itazura no kiss but i watched the anime and read the manga for it and it's quite a toxic relationship so heads up :)
Well, I know this is late, but not really. She doesn't have much development, but begins to come out of her shell…
im still around halfway through the drama and I'm just thinking of skipping her scenes w the male lead because they never really have conversations, its just her saying good luck 😭 thanks for responding
I had to get this off my chest, what blackface??? If you're referring to the Reggae Boy author, that just means…
I was raised in london too. YOUR lack of experience with the stereotype is yours only, but its an extremely common stereotype. Like I said, black people get shunned from working, their partners parents dont accept them into the family, all because people are aware of this stereotype. So the fact you have not recognised the writer used this stereotype is possibly due to your lack of awareness of the stereotype. The fact I, and many others have noticed the use of this stereotype is because we are aware. You should probably do some research on the stereotype, because then there is no point arguing about it if you don't even know about it. I also reccomend searching up "backstreet rookie racism/blackface" because maybe you'd then be aware that noticing the stereotype is not racist. Believing the stereotype is. So no, I did not think he is a typical black man. I thought he is a character who has been built with this harmful stereotype.

So, you are saying, racism is only a problem if death is involved. Lol? You do realise how everyday racism affects people. These harmful stereotypes continue to uphold this view of black people being dirty, turning it into a societal view. It's difficult for black people, and a lot of other POC to be hired for jobs because of institutional racism. They think their hair is 'dirty' and 'unprofessional'. You think racism isnt much of a problem unless murder is involved? That's seriously messed up. People are affected day to day through racism and the negative stereotypes you are ultimately defending are one of the major problems.

When did i say i thought black people are dirty lmao??? you seriously cannot comprehend the fact the writer has used a STEREOTYPE to profit off of for comical humour. Identifying a stereotype is not the same as believing in the stereotype, stop saying some nonsense bc you know I'm right.
The second point you make is just.. dumbfounding. You're evidently saying the racism is 'no problem' since its everywhere. Are you crazy? If theres many other scenes like this in other western shows, you think people wont speak up about it?? Of course they will. Idk why you think this show is so special that only BSR is getting complaints about racism, all shows that have racist scenes get complaints. So, no its not a "selective uproar", its asking the writer to have some respect for black people. That scene was an issue because he, who is not affiliated with Nigerian or Jamaican culture at all, is identifying himself as such. If a white person pretented to be asian, I would be upset and I definitely hope you would be or you're shaming your people.
"Ask yourself why you havent said anything about that" Sorry to tell you, but you are self projecting. If something I am watching has racist remarks, and is profitting of a HARMFUL stereotype, I DO speak up about it. You should take some effort to do the same, since here you are, using your energy to defend racism out of all things instead.

Im asian lol. The writer had made so many racist scenes in this show using the reggae author. a) he appeared black until they mentioned he was fully korean. before that, i had to go on mdl to check if the actor was black or atleast half black. b) they used the very existential stereotype of black people being dirty to characterize the reggae author - and no, this is not racist on my behalf. the fact a fly got stuck in his dreads says it all (and MANY black people have an issue with this, so youre saying them appropriating it that way makes them racist too?). c) the scene of the Nigerian man entering the store, and the reggae author saying "we are the Jamaican family" - if you cannot see the issue with that, then I do not think you have the brain capacity of arguing about whether the writer is racist, or shall I say humouring racism or not.

yes, blackface. he is a korean man appearing as a black man purposely. to add on, the writer has purposely made this character appear dirty and uncleansly, stereotyping black men. if thats not racist then what is? you claim I'm racist but im a person of colour calling out racism. on the other hand, you seem like a typical kdrama stan who purposely ignores racism just bc their favourite actors or writers are involved. fix up x
so that could be why 😁
