This is a great day: Yoo Ah In IS BACK!!!! I'm SO happy to see this immensely talented actor again. And look at the rest of this incredible cast! 💖💖💖💖💖
Your list is a little ode to the works of the talented actor I’ve affectionately nicknamed ‘Hot Lips’ since discovering him in Reply 1988 🤭💋😅 PS: you'll soon be able to add this show too https://kisskh.at/782114-field-mouse
OMG NOO PLEASE KEEP WATCHING, everyone has an amazing growth by the end andd the ending is super satisfying!
Your comment actually made me want to keep watching 🙏🏻 I’m currently on episode 4 and I was this close to dropping it because of the “weak” ML (and the overly chaotic family members) 🙄 But I’ll keep going!
His huge talent will be dearly missed, but he leaves us with beautiful masterpieces such as Secret Love Affair, Something in the Rain, One Spring Night... Thank you, sir. May you rest in peace 🙏🏻
I get where your concerns come from.School violence cases in Korea get a lot of media attention, and the Ji Soo…
Thank you for sharing more of your perspective. Your long experience as both a long‑time teacher and student is really valuable.
It’s true that bullying can appear more visible or "imminent" in certain countries, especially when social structures, expectations, or pressures create environments where competition, hierarchy, or conformity are very strong. Social values, the way respect is taught, and the emphasis placed on success can definitely influence how young people interact and how conflicts develop.
At the same time, personal experiences with bullying vary enormously from one school, region or generation to another. Some people go through their entire education without ever witnessing it, while others encounter it early and often, even within the same country or school system. For example, I personally experienced bullying several times during my school years in a European environment that was 95% caucasian (like me). So experiences can differ widely, even in places that might seem “safe” or familiar.
Because of this, it’s difficult to draw broad conclusions about entire cultures based only on individual cases, even though those cases are meaningful.
I agree that long‑term social values shape behaviour, and that unhealthy competition, rigid hierarchies or pressure to “get ahead” can contribute to harmful dynamics. But these mechanisms exist in many places, not just in a few countries. Different societies simply express them in different ways; some more publicly, some more quietly, some more dramatically amplified by media.
In the end, bullying isn’t a “national trait”. It’s a complex human issue influenced by social norms, family structures, education systems, media, and generational changes. The roots can be cultural, psychological, structural, societal… often a mix of all of these. And like you said, it takes years of shaping values (good or bad) to create the environment young people grow up in.
Apparently:- The accusations against Ji Soo were never officially recognized as true by any court.- There was…
So far I haven’t found any reliable or official source confirming this point. But if it were true, it could quite possibly have influenced or helped things for veteran actor Lee Kyung‑young, indeed. 🙄
It is crazy how he admitted to the "rumor", reached out to resolve misunderstandings with some of his…
Actually, his ex‑agency was ordered to pay a very large compensation in the damages lawsuit related to River Where the Moon Rises. So there is a bit of “justice” (or karma) in this whole situation. Too bad Ji Soo can’t really benefit from it.
