Money and power. None of us know this first thing about who owns MDL or what it stands for, is it independent? Does it get paid for its articles? (rhetorical questions)

If anyone's wondering why the family contacted garosero.... well, I wouldn't doubt for a second that Dispatch has sat on this story for 10 years. It's in league with a higher power, so doesn't want to kill the goose. All msm, including dispatch cannot be trusted. When garosero are branded as nutters, those attacks are probably coming from the left (it's a right wing channel) or the money/state behind the industry - the controlling power. Some say it's the controlling powers that are evil, in Hollywood and probably the same in SK. Ever wonder why a fairly average guy hits the top, is it luck, talent, or something else? Could be the thing that's just hitting the headlines is the connection behind all the power circles around the world, the same reason seungli got a light sentence and others around him are currently thriving.
Sorry. Just rambling.

It's blackmail. The fact is that he did *not* confess until evidence was released. There could be more, this could be a warning shot to confess honourably - seems they want Sae-ron to rest in peace.

In cases like this, we normally look at who the friends are, the people who are close, get their comment, trace their connections.
Not surprising a member of big bang is one. I'd like to see a media outlet contacting writer Park Ji-eun for comment on why KSH starred in three of her dramas over the past 10 years - he's a good actor, but certainly not singular.

Yes, it's too late for damage control. I expect we'll soon find out what drove Sae-ron's dui too. And there's still the possibility she was suicided. With all this baggage it's possible several people wanted to silence her.

Koreaboo puts together the evidence and sources for all to see, with a convenient timeline. That is journalism. If you don't like the topic, it's your subjective opinion that it's trash. Silencing people does not nullify the evidence or their points of view, it makes you look complicit in trying to hide it. Mind your own business, this is the biggest story in town and MDL would look ridiculous if it ignored it.

Less okay to reinforce the wrong opinion with a slur.

What do you mean exactly? Tell me specifically what you mean about Korea, and what your authority is on the topic.

Shut up.

I can't stand people that say "pretty privilege". It's an ugly slur borne from jealousy.

It's the only reason I made an account, to keep track.
The only stuff I haven't added are older Japanese titles - whoever's in charge of listing Japanese stuff on here is a pompous jerk.

You don't know the facts or what they were up against.
Recently in the UK a popular newsreader at the BBC, Huw Edwards, got caught for grooming and more - apparently the boy's parents tried for years to do something, they were up against a power with links to high places within the BBC and above.
This type of corruption is worldwide - look at the French president for example, people died or were ruined trying to expose that couple.

Popular singer Wheesung died 4 days ago and there's no article - unless I missed it. He has a profile on MDL, he appeared on many shows and contributed music to dramas. Making me suspicious. He deserves an obituary on MDL. This story blows up at the same point in time, may or may not be a coincidence.

So, when a post is off topic because the publisher is suppressing the topic, you want to silence the voice that points it out.

It's possible KSH is being set up. Not that he's not guilty - sometimes when there's a very big fish, a smaller fish is thrown to the sharks.

Kim Soo-hyun's agency is his own company, it should be noted.
In the past, some years ago amid Ye-ji's scandal, I mentioned Gold Medalist seemed like a decent agency, I think I was wrong.
To sum up what I read, it paid off Sae-ron's penalty fee (reason behind her dui behaviour never discussed btw), billed her for it, she then posted a surprising photo online, immediately GM says no need to pay, then, perhaps once it thinks it's cleared up loose ends, tells her to pay up again? Blackmail revenge?

Btw, if you wonder why it matters to block stories on MDL, Hallyu is an export, a big business .... and more than that, is part of SK's public image. Foreign sites influence how businesses like Disney and Netflix invest. I can list a lot of reasons, I hope you're able to see what I mean.

Not what I'm saying. As you mentioned, Dispatch has published everything in SK. There's no collusion there, unless there's a bigger name involved - KSH could be a low hanging fruit to throw to the wolves.
Ever wondered how Big bang got away with their scandal lightly, when there's a bigger entity involved, a low hanging fruit gets eaten and the rest all come out of it unscathed, the narrative is dictated.
Your 'nonsense' rhetoric implicates you too.

It's not shit, it's a huge story. Dispatch is pretty reliable with its source and fact checking. MDL appears to be suppressing it. It wrote about Kim Sae-ron and stopped there. How connected is KSH I wonder? You know the *rumours" of organised, well connected cover ups with paedophilia one of the constants in all of them: the French president, British royals, Epstein, McCanns, SK must be no exception. It's dark. The MO is to control the narrative in the media.

You know, that's a valid point. There has been quite a lot of Disney involvement in this site recently, I'm wondering how far its involvement goes. Disney stands to lose money from this scandal and MDL is trying to hide it. Hmm.
