And that's the core of everything I guess. I will admit that I did laugh at some scenes and I liked the reversal of genders HOWEVER that left a bad taste in my mouth in the end. Why? Because the ghost girl was imo portrayed in a bad way because of her sexual needs. It would have been a totally different story if the guy accepted her advances from the start, but he kept pushing her away until she turned into a rapey character. They were both victims imo, he because he was sexually abused and she because of a portrayal as being silly because of her basic human needs.

Thanks, now that you mentioned it, I do remember a couple of scenes of throwing water on someone's face :D Is rice throwing more prevalent in historical dramas?

I completely agree, that is why I also mentioned another drama that deals with discrimination and abuse at work, however, when it comes to the Misaeng example, it is correct that the behavior of men who abused her was not condoned, but HER behavior was, because (just like you said) it became apparent that a woman's perseverance was portrayed as the only way to deal with abusive people in a workplace, which is completely wrong. She was the victim and she did nothing but accept it in order not to lose her job (just like many other characters who endured worse fate for the same reason). And that sends a message that you should not speak up and report the abuse.

True and what I have also noticed is that when a female character is portrayed as successful and independent, she is usually a villain, an old "hag" or a bitchy person. Which is really sad.

You mean there is more abuse in Thai lakorns or...?

Hmm is there a gang rape scene, or that was just a metaphor? O_O
I think he is worse than an animal because he is too sadistic, however, each country portrayed his character in a slightly different way. The girl is the problem because she keeps on running after him and getting abused. I won't even start about her father who just lets all that happen.

You're right, the major audience consists of younger people and some of them will probably take on that relationship model and behave similarly in a real life. The scarier thing is that, the reason why dramas keep on showing the same abuse, is probably because such scenes are sought after by people who watch dramas.

You are right, and I agree. A couple of times I thought "He looks as if he really is cornered and afraid" even though he is physically stronger than her.
It would make a great addition to the article, I'd love to quote you ;)

Thank you! I believe that what is even worse than that kind of physical violence is the fact that the victim accepts and forgives it too easily. The problem arises when that kind of behavior gets portrayed as "good" and "romantic".

Lucky you ;) :D

Did you watch it in cinema or...? :)

Japanese dramas are usually not longer than 11 episodes :)
