ikr lol the garbage part specially
but have you also noticed their obsession with adultery dramas?

Yeah, I read somewhere that S.Korea ranks higher than Japan when it comes to suicide rate, a terrible thing. As for loneliness, have you seen those documentaries about them not being able to connect to other people? It's really rampant in Japan. Also this:

I agree with everything except the "male-centric country not being a bad thing." I believe that patriarchy is a terrible thing and as long as men do not respect women or see them just as breeding vessels they cannot move on as a society. They are superior technology wise but look at the high number of suicides and lonely people. They are dying out as a nation. And I love Japan but I have to acknowledge its bad sides.

I just don't see how he'll recover from this... :/ Unless he disappears for some time, and reconciles with his wife.

Even the late Kobe Bryant lost more than few endorsements when he was charged with sexual assault. Organizations and companies do not want to be associated with adulterers and criminals. Completely normal if you ask me.

I don't think you should have brought up that thing with the kids... It's as if you're blaming Anne in a way, that is terrible.
Unless they publicly announce that some of his kids aren't his, statements like these should be avoided.

Oh I see. Well, I don't see how she'll recover from this scandal... the backlash is strong in S.Korea too.

I think her scenes will be cut out... Having in mind that they closed her official website, it's very possible they fired her.

According to the synopsis, he's a stalker, but what creeps me out the most is the fact that he's pursuing her first, it's usually the other way round.

I wonder the same, I guess you're referring to that creepy naked scene from the trailer... :/

I just don't think they were special in any way individually. I understood them culturally.

I kinda agree with you but I think the film also portrays the other, dark and realistic, side - people with mental disabilities can hurt other people.

A bit off topic but I wanna mention that Corpus Christi and Honeyland are amazing, for those interested in other foreign films :)

I agree, I personally couldn't relate or connect to any character individually so I don't think any of them deserve such an award.

You're right, I should have included the dramas that these gifs are from. The article is really old so I'll try to find them and replace the broken links.

Doesn't matter, the ratings change all the time

Godfrey Gao is mentioned, among others... If you have a longer list feel free to send it to me and I'll gladly update the article. It's impossible for me to know everything after all! :) There are just too many countries to cover.

What needs to be updated exactly?
