how is two popular actors welcoming a healthy baby into this shitty world not newsworthy? i dont get the bitterness…
Celebrating a healthy baby sets the bar too low. Save the celebrations for when the baby gets a PhD. Until then, it's a bunch of cooing and diaper changes
The article below this one is literally about Gong Yoo mourning the death of his father, which is even less newsworthy…
Gossip isn't necessarily unverified, speculative, negative or neutral. It's personal information or rumors about others that are sometimes true, positive or celebratory, such as rumors about celebrities getting married or achieving success
Comparing MDL to BBC, NBC or IMDB is an ignorant comparison. These platforms have different purposes and audiences. IMDB's focus is on providing information about movies, TV shows, and celebrities. MDL's focus is on Asian dramas and movies. MDL should strive to maintain a higher standard than IMDB
"By this logic, any reported news, once it reaches the public, becomes classified as gossip"
That's not wrong. With the advent of social media, the lines between formal news outlets and informal gossip channels have become less defined. The traditional distinction between gossip and news isn't applicable in today's media landscape. Any news related to the private lives of others that enters the public domain is a form of gossip

Gossip is the circulation of rumors and personal information about others. The initial "dating" or "marriage" information that came directly from the celebrities or their companies takes on the qualities of gossip once it's disseminated and discussed among fans
It would be beneficial to have separate news sections. MDL would organize its content, and users would find the type of information they are interested in

I support the LGB community
I reject "transgenderism," and its assertion that undergoing surgery or imitating the external characteristics typically associated with the opposite-sex constitutes a change in one's womanhood or manhood

"Gossip" traditionally refers to casual or unconstrained conversation about personal or trivial matters, and entertainment news about celebrity marriages or retirements fits the definition

A low birth rate doesn't mean that every celebrity baby is a national treasure. Is a celebrity getting a new car good news because gas prices are high? It's another case of rich people doing rich people things
Low birth rates aren't a problem. Korean women are making more informed decisions about their bodies. That's good news
Someone passing away, dating or getting married isn't newsworthy. These announcements don't have a significant impact on us. They are frivolous subjects that don't deserve coverage or journalistic investigation

Oh, how silly of us to engage in critical thinking about a fictional trope. The appropriate response to fiction is to blindly accept it like a mindless drone! /sarcasm
Look, the omegaverse trope is a lie. It divides women into two distinct groups: feminine-presenting and masculine-presenting
The "men" possessing women's ability to give birth are the masculine-presenting women. Calling them "men" demonstrates a fundamental lack of understanding of human anatomy
I don't care that it's fiction. The ability to become "pregnant" is an inherent characteristic of women. A "man" who becomes "pregnant" is a man-looking woman
You use language that originates from the real world to describe fictional characters not representative of real men. It opens the door to objections
I can see that the word "man" is being used as a superficial label. And I can see that the mislabeling is ruining BL/yaoi. I will take it seriously
All 10 seconds of it, LOL. I was waiting for that moment barely breathing. At least there was that - or else there'd…
We can now breathe a sigh of relief and continue enjoying the story with our uncle safely by our side. I would have thrown hands if he didn't survive the ordeal
You see, it is all about personal preference. I could not pass ep 1 of Vigilante. The ML did not do it as Vigilante…
Thank you for giving Vigilante a chance. I enjoyed watching Nam Joo-hyuk bring justice to the survivors wronged by the legal system. The intense hand-to-hand combat, and the dynamic between Nam Joo-hyuk and the wealthy man who takes an interest in him, made for a captivating and thought-provoking viewing experience
He's pretty in Vigilante. His ethereal beauty added to the mystique and allure of his character
5. Hope not. If it were me, I'd be loyal to the uncle and lay down the "life" that he saved for him to show my…
I believe his decision to raise his niece and teach her self-defense was originally out of guilt and responsibility. It was influenced by his mother's last wishes to take care of the niece. It's possible that season 2 will explore ambiguous aspects of his character. I still don't want him gone

OP said "personally." They shared their personal preference
Nam Joo-hyuk's romcom roles were snoozefests compared to his spicy vigilante gig. He shook things up and proved he's more than a pretty face in a romcom
okay, if there's a season two, then it could go like this:1. we see Pensin taking care of Minhye. She's 100% alive…
5. Hope not. If it were me, I'd be loyal to the uncle and lay down the "life" that he saved for him to show my gratitude and respect. Laying down WITH him would be inappropriate
7. The uncle has earned the right to stick around. I don't want him gone. The Grim Reaper would take a look at him and be like, "I'm out. This guy is too good to be true!"
The uncle is my favorite character. He's the kind of character that could make the Grinch's heart grow three sizes too big. Sure, he made mistakes in the past, but he's blamed/slapped himself, taken responsibility for them and stepped up as a parent figure to his niece. He's got a heart of gold
He's a flawed hero, and I'm willing to overlook his flaws. I'll rewatch this thriller for him and the happy ending/reunion
One problem I have with "sexual content" is the infamous Netflix algorithm always assuming we are hormone-driven teenagers who can't handle anything more complex than a gratuitous side-boob or suggestive scene that adds absolutely nothing to the story. Joke's on you, Netflix! My libido is so low, it's practically non-existent
There are like two sex scenes that happen for only a few seconds at a time... it's not much or that bad
What you're saying is, I can blink and I'll miss the "sexual content?" That's a relief. I'll practice my rapid-blink technique and hope I don't miss an important plot point while I'm at it
