Honestly, I am still amazed by the passion and ardor of certain types of K-fans. It’s truly fanatical stuff. You could write a fully researched thesis about it and publish it somewhere. 🤣

Haha…it helps that I don’t actually tweet, so I just browse. Plus, I was really curious. I mean, they cancelling folks in SK if you break up with someone too harshly…lol. So…I am not surprised some folks have their knives out.

So I did a deep, deep dive on Twitter using translation and from what I read it seems like blood is in the water in regards to SJK. Plus, it doesn’t help that his last drama wasn’t that good. Lots of people seem to think he divorced first wife to be with new chick who is now new wife. Lots of folks say they don’t like him as a person, and some question his acting. On a side note, I heard Glory is off the hook! As soon as all 16 episodes air, I am binging that for sure! 🤣👍🏽🖖🏽

Thanks for the update. The MBs will have all the good deets!

Thank you! I am intrigued by this because it’s interesting. You have a well loved star doing something out of the box. I casually read on here that the big K-stars don’t even want to reveal a relationship to the public for fear of the fandom’s response. This seems swift and sudden…like a let the chips fall where they may kind of tactic, Balls to the wall and all that…

Oh…okay. Sorry. I don’t always get the responses right. Thank you 🙏🏽

Funny… I like him from Descendants of the Sun. That was the 3rd K-drama I watched once I got hooked. I haven’t watched him in anything else except Vincenzo. He’s cute, but not really my type of cute.

I liked this a lot! I need to see the second one now!

Yep, which is why a deep—pregnancy resulting—relationship is now in the works. Idk….just judging by this guys previous relationship’s…he falls fast and hard, without real thought behind his decisions. Yet….western women will break a lesser man. I wish them and V2 the best of luck. TBH…I was not thrilled by Vincenzo 1….so…. 🤷🏽‍♀️

It did improve, but I was surprised that me a non-native speaker could understand him at all! His Italian wasn’t smooth, but he put in effort I could literally hear. I was amazed by his simple fluency, since I know that isn’t his first language. Again, she did a good job. I can see why a relationship developed.

As for V2….I don’t know. That’s why I am interested to hear from real South Koreans. They are the deciders of his fate.

I feel like we will know the answer to this question with the release—or non release—of Vincenzo 2. I will also say on a side note that after having finally watched Vincenzo, that the SJK’s Italian was very, very good. And I say this having lived in Italy for five years. If his new wife was his teacher then she did a damn good job at teaching him 😉, and I can see how a relationship developed. Italian isn’t called a Romance language…lol…so to speak….for nothing. 🤣

I remember reading on this board about a K-star being canceled because he broke up with a girl in a really harsh way and she told the world, and they cancelled him on the spot. He had to publicly apologize to get back in the public’s good graces, and then it took awhile. I wish the couple all the best, but I really wonder what folks are saying in South Korea.

No, I don’t care one way or another tbh. But, I am genuinely curious as to the response in South Korea. If you know the answer feel free to chime in. I am not hating, but more curious because of the conservative nature of the society,

I don’t follow the personal lives of K-stars, so forgive me if this has been asked but what is the reaction in South Korea to this news? I am curious because I was under the impression things are way more conservative there. It seems like this kind of news (sudden pregnancy and marriage) would be heavily frowned upon. I mean, this is the type of thing I would expect to lead to cancelling for a Korean star. 🤷🏽‍♀️ Just wondering.

I just read the description for that and it sounds awesome! Thanks for the recommendation. I just found it.

Lots of great things being said about this show, but I’ll wait for all 16 episodes before I jump in.

Question. Did the brother stay behind because he was infected? He was so level headed I cannot fathom why he would commit suicide unless he was infected.

The end of episode eight gave me chills. Excellent symbolism.

So I just finished this…and I am underwhelmed. It’s not bad. It’s just average throughout and nothing really stands out. Lee Se Young is great, but I question the direction to have her cry so frequently and so pitifully in damn near every episode.

18 episodes in and I am thinking about fast forwarding. I’m still in the game though.
