I thought she was recognized as a good actress? She's pulled off some challenging roles, I don't get it either.…
She was incredible in The Interest Of Love, a top performance that changed my view of her.
(I've never seen Jong-suk put in a shift like that, in my view he's best suited as a support actor, a la Secret Garden. Moving to lead roles exposed his lack of range quite badly.)
The Interest of Love was a top quality production from JTBC, I don't think there's any way for her to shine opposite Lee Jong-suk, regardless of the overall production quality. Likewise, he needs someone that can carry a drama, I don't think she's got the energy or charisma to do it all by herself - hence I think it's a bad pairing.

The Korean anti Japanese activists don't seem to want to admit that their government kept the reparations from Japan to themselves - South Korea was a dictatorship until quite recently, and like every government in the world, has hidden certain facts from its population and was prone to corruption - South Korean dramas and films are extremely scornful of its past regime.

At the same time, it seems popular with actors to get involved in anti Japanese sentiment - to try to sell that material to Japan is pushing it for me. Park Seo-joon was even advertising noodles in Japan after Itaewon-class, can't see that happening in future. CLOY was #1 in Japan, I wonder what those middle aged ladies will think of Hyun Bin after Harbin comes out. It seems that actors feel the need to appease these anti Japanese groups, especially the actors that did well in Japan - I'm starting to wonder how big that movement actually is. I feel there's one branch of K-ent working for it, another against: Pro-reunion, anti-Japan Vs anti-North, pro-Japan.

But it defintely had some inspirations from real incidents, I guesshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Pzq0URbL2M
Not much of a documentary. The reference section looks dubious, and I can't trust a historian that hides their identity - if they have confidence in their research, they should show their face as they talk, instead of hiding behind animation graphics.

From the references we can fact check, they come from Japan and other archives and those are the facts that are generally well known.

Japan never apologized. Also have you ever watched a japanese action movie? Chances are you will at least hear…
By the way, it has apologised, South Korea asks for another apology every time it feels upset. Of course, countries don't ask for apologies, it's activists within South Korea that stoke up the past. Whatever reparations and apologies were issued, it triggers people all over again to be reminded of what happened.

What's your stake in the matter? By that I mean, what's it to you?

"Oh no!What's next? They're going to put immigrants and gays in my beloved K-dramas?😭 How will I cope? Damn…
Modern feminists want to uglify everything. They hate femininity and beauty, I guess it's a threat to them. In the past, feminism was about women's rights... now that women have better rights than men, feminism should have become obsolete, so what does it do? Goes to even further extremes, gets stupid and erodes the progress made by women. Everything modern feminists say is disingenuous, tribal and divisive.
