I’ve heard people who express negativity in comments on places like this have no friends. Do you think that…
The user is posting hate comments on all the currently airing K-drama pages. He's a troll, and there has been an influx of them this year for K-dramas on this site.
Prior to the #metoo movement, women who brought attention to their being sexual assaulted were dismissed as "batshit…
When did I ever say there wasn't anti-Chinese sentiment in Korea? You are putting a crazy amount of words in my mouth with this entire comment.
Holy crap, dude. There is something seriously insane about you. You realize there is anti-Korean sentiment in China too? You realize that you're being super anti-Korean right now and making fringe/disingenuous statements? I don't know any Koreans who believe hanfu is a copy of hanbok, what? I've seen fringe comments of Chinese netizens calling hanbok a thieving copy of hanfu, but I don't use that to generalize all Chinese.
Why can't we just try to be neutral about these countries? Why do you have to be so crazy?
So I was sympathetic until I read this comment and your other comments bashing Korea and its people. You're also…
Yes, because you are literally relaying Chinese nationalist talking points verbatim. Any kind of nationalistic rhetoric is annoying, you are whatever the equivalent of koreaboo is for China.
And, no, don't try to play coy. You were talking about South Koreans, go ahead and edit your comments, I remember them. In fact, you literally are insulting Koreans in multiple comments here and in another reply to a comment of mine.

Do you even know what South Koreans are saying? I'm ethnically Korean (raised in the US) and go on Korean forums, I haven't even seen this mentioned yet on there. Wanna know something? I've seen Chinese social media too (not just Rednote, but Douyin, Tieba, Baidu, etc.) they're exactly the same in toxicity as Korean ones.
You're being just as racist as the Koreans you're criticizing.

Except... they do? Your talking points here for example? There are movies like Year Hare Affair that depict Koreans as literal ethnic slurs (along with a ton of other racist depictions). Again, you're being super disingenuous.

Oh, stop. My husband is Chinese. I know all about how China jailed feminists in that country i.e. the feminist five and shutdown the metoo movements. Both countries have their issues, but holy crap, dude, you are being seriously disingenuous here.
Despite openly solicitating international audiences since the beginning of the 21st century, South Korea has repeatedly…
So I was sympathetic until I read this comment and your other comments bashing Korea and its people. You're also likely not even arguing with Koreans in these threads, but holy cow, you are being seriously obtuse in your jingoism here.
You also clearly haven't read about the ongoing gender war in China if you think the issues in South Korea are unique to that country.
Look, you can have your qualms about the show and voice them, but once you start acting just as demeaning in the rhetoric you're criticizing, you're nothing more than a hypocrite.
“ A series insulted my country and made it appear unsafe…”Hmmmmm yours isn’t the only country mentioned…
I mean, I also support upping punishments, but that doesn't mean it's an epidemic. This is what I mean by unfair depictions like you are also complaining about.
There was a somewhat famous case: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_of_Kim_Sun-il It's unfair, and I think this show is wrong for depicting Iraq as unsafe, but this is what I mean by people easily making broad strokes off singular articles/whatever.
The drug thing, especially, is a bit ridiculous if you know Korean drug laws.
“ A series insulted my country and made it appear unsafe…”Hmmmmm yours isn’t the only country mentioned…
Statistically, this is actually not true at all.
I get your frustrations, though. Honestly, Korea has been depicted quite poorly in other countries' media too. That's probably why you have the conceptions of the above.
There is a South Korean actress who was blacklisted for having an affair with a director, but when men cheat on…
This is a little bit in bad faith, their have been actresses in the past who had affairs and weren't blacklisted. The Kim Minhee/Hong Sangsoo thing is a bit of a different scenario.
It's really a shame not more people are watching this. It's such a nice slice of life drama about family and love…
Agreed! Better than the score would indicate.
But nowadays, it seems like unless a show is completely engaging in its first episode, people will give up on it. Shows that start slow are bound to not be that popular.
I haven't watched it yet but looking at the comments not many people have liked it so far. Even after having the…
I don't think these types of concepts work well in live action and are better suited for animation or webtoons. Although, part of Omniscient Readers' issue was not staying faithful to the material in its writing too.
Study Group was great, but that is not really a mix of fantasy like the above.
That said, quarters 2 and 3 tend to be slower than 1 and 4 for Asian TV. At least, that was often my experience. Hopefully, quarter 4 picks back up, but we'll see.
