It definitely depends on the viewer when it comes to perception. But camera angles, lighting, music, etc can influence how someone views a scene. So angles or framing that is typically used in sexual situations is odd to me to use in the case of SA. I've dropped different movies because of the angles they've used before.

I actually have not seen his work. I've only seen bits and pieces as well as the effect of them afterwards. I don't think it's fair to form solid opinions without having full context, like actually watching them fully, but I still end up forming partial opinions. Like the fact that Ryan Murphy didn't get permission from the victim's families, added sexual scenarios, and dramatized real life crimes. I think it feels different if the crimes are so long ago that the victim's families can no longer be affected by it, but so many of them were blindsided when the shows came out. The amount of thirst edits, people getting tattoos of the actors playing irl serial killers, and parents even dressing their kids as serial killers were insaneee.

I geniunly can't remember where I watched it. I checked the main fansub sites I watch and even checked some of the pirate sites, but couldn't find it? I wonder if it was deleted. If I come across it though, I'll send a link over.

btw I saw that you have Yoo Ah In as your profile pic. he's one of my favorite actors! do you have a favorite movie of his? You can dm me a reply so we don't make the comment section too long if you want.

I don't normally write extremely negative comments. I felt compelled by this one because the directing style felt so odd to me. There is a place for SA stories. They can be done with genuine empathy and nuance. But the directing of this one just reminds me of many other movies where SA scenes are too long, too graphic, and oddly sexualized. It reminds me of Ryan Murphy and how often he takes dark topics and sexualizes them for the sake of doing so, rather than handling the very real crimes that have happened and do happen to real victims every day.

I'm curious to know which threads you're referring to? I tend to write comments on most things I watch, but I don't tend to hate things as viscerally as this one lol. Normally I just complain about things being boring or technical issues that I wish were better.

Do you have the link yet?

I wish the drama had focused more on character development and growth rather than romance. The original webtoon was about the FL learning how meaningful hobbies can be, even if they don't lead to better higher paying jobs. The joy and community of the drawing club as well as the very weird ML help the FL to grow. Instead they focused on romance and made this seem more average/blank yn FL. When the point of the webtoon was her growth, the point of the drama is that a hot guy likes her while the side plot is sometimes she stands up for herself.

Also with such a weird ML, showcase that more. It's fun having unconventional fun characters like that.

pig pen was such a crazy weird, but amazing webtoon! how are they going to translate that into a live action form??

The pacing is awful and the first 30 minutes have practically nothing to do with the rest of the movie. The character building and motivations are completely different halfway thorough and it's not through character growth or development, it just happens. Ughh I wanted to like this, but the execution is so poor.

Can someone let me know when there are links?

This was so good as a rewatch. I can't believe how good the golden era of kdrama romcoms were. The emotional depth, the warm and natural chemistry, and the comedy was so good. Seung Ho's performance is steller here. It's not often you see such effort and talent in romcoms anymore...Way more of a rarity now.

It's a really interesting and unique concept, but sadly the budget is quite low. This would've been sooo good with a better budget, directing, and pacing because the story is really good.

Does anyone know where to watch this with eng subs?

Please let me know when this is out with eng sub

Anyone know where to watch this with eng subs yet?

Goodness I've been waiting forever to watch this with eng subs. Why in the world would a streaming service only get the rights for the dubbed version?

Thanks for the update!

The ML was such a unique character. I don't think I've seen such an emotional ML before or even an emotional MC that often. He felt everything and you could see every emotion in the way he held his body, by the look in his eyes, and see the thoughts running through his head. What a wonderful messy, flawed, and well written ML.

I've gotten so used to watching actors get stabbed or hurt and get up like nothing happened but a minor scrape. It was jarring and so impactful seeing an actor actually ACT hurt. The body in shock moving in odd ways, the act of trying to get up, the unfocused eyes, not being able to scream, etc. Zo In Sung, my goodness what an actor.

ahhh this sounds so creative and funn

I was so confused why the final episode was 2 and half hours long! Luckily it's because it's 80% recap. Idk why they did it like that, but if you to the final episode that timestamp is right. I skipped to the current game at time stamp 1 hour and 31 minutes.

If you've never seen an early 2000's jdrama or an anime-style live action, then you're gonna get some whiplash from this show. But if you have, you'll love the excessive editing, funky styles, and nostalgia it brings. Watch it as a show from 2007 as a it's charming point and it's a great time.

This show is a mess, yet really fun with it's own charm, natural chemistry/intimacy, and heart. Skip all the secondary couples and enjoy a romance between two very flawed characters. I think it's fun watching older shows where not every character is perfect, instead their flawed and somewhat grounded.

This is my first time re-watching in 7 years and it's still super fun.

The leads have so many endearing and warm hugs, I love it when there is realistic moments of intimacy like that. Hugs are so underrated in the romance drama wordl!
