I'm surprised she didn't think that guy would misunderstand their friendship. It was pretty obvious he was giving her special attention. Mixed signals!!
It's a beautiful movie. I can't believe it's almost 20 years old. It's such a sad story told in a comic way, but it's really captivating. The hard life of a woman who was rejected by almost everyone.
I liked how it portrays the characters struggle to re-adjust to society with their 'criminal' label, but I wish…
you make the assumption that everyone that is caught up in crime did it because they wanted too. Sometimes crime happens to innocent people, imagine the high number of black people in prisons in the US due to systematic racism. Even this show reminds you of how systems like the police harass ex-criminals to get confessions. That one character in the Bento shop lost her job coz of the police sniffing around.
They gave you a few scenarios that are very understandable and try to remind you of your own bias. ie. Criminal = Bad person. Like one of the characters said Recidivism is high. This is because even if you try to live a good life as a criminal the world continues to treat you like a criminal including hindering your ability to make a living.
It's hard to say I loved it when it is the reality of most people. the police are dirty and will always try to protect their institution. Yes I cried and was inspired to donate to the Innocence Project and say a little prayer for all the other prisoners who may not get freedom in this side of life.
I'm not sure what you mean by that but i do prefer manga than live aciton more when it come josei and shojounless…
Good for you! Reading is always better of course. I meant they are all the same stories, nothing new it's a hit or miss but good for none serious watching.
Most josei/Shoujo live manga adaptations are average, there are one or two that are truly outstanding but mostly just average same old themes.
I know what to expect from them so I'm not bothered.
Yeah, she does & someone takes photos of them kissing. She later quits her teaching job coz of it. The school found out. Ends with them meeting as adults though, so kind of open-ended on whether or not they continue.
She is only 19 years old and not a local, so that lifestyle was new to her and her mom.
That's no excuse to be disrespectful and cause all those problems. I never saw her trying to learn anything or become part of her new life she was impulsive in everything she did.
so I watch this drama from beginning to end and I did enjoy it the only thing I did not like is I did not feel…
You really can't compare Kdrama and Jdramas. They do romance very differently and the face that most live manga adaptations tend to be fast paced with no time for expressing complicated feelings.
It's a beautiful series about the life of nomadic shepherds but I didn't like the FL. She was kind of irritating and acted so childish like she was a stranger to that lifestyle. Maybe, I missed something.
His next drama doesn't sound promising either. I think he's going to be overshadowed by the younger cast. I think the younger version of his character might be the one doing all the romantic scenes. Sounds like a melodrama too.
By what they did to durian flowers what do mean? U meant dusting the flowers with some kind of florets while doing…
Yes, thanks that's exactly what I meant. I guessed the cutting away of some of the fruit. But was wondering what he was doing -I was just surprised that the old lady could just write a random piece of paper and that would be accepted as a will. -Also if the old lady had adopted Thongkam what did that mean? Was that ceremony just meaningless? -
Yes it's beautiful, rich and full of Thai culture. I'm kind of sad that there was nowhere to reference some of the stuff they were doing. I would have loved to know why they did that to the Durian flowers and why it's important. Knowing the meaning of the ritual would have enriched the experience. Let me know if there is an explainer somewhere. -What are the rules of Thai inheritance and adoption. Do you just sign random papers? I didn't know Durian were such a big deal and can make you rich.
Kdramas writers are some of the most ignorant, tone-deaf writers in the world. They rely on outdated stereotypes and caricature.s.They don't fact check their information when it's comes to stuff that you can just do a Google search.
They've been called-out many times for this but it keeps coming up. They need to do better, you can't go global but still remain ignorant & expect people to support that.
