Yes. It irritated me as well. I was frustrated with her not doing or saying ANYTHING to defy those bullies.
But she COULD have done something. And saying that is NOT "borderline victim blaming". It is an observation.
Korean culture or laws are different, so there may have been more limitations as to what she could do, but she could have at least said something to the bullies and not just cower and "accept" the abuse.
Of course she is afraid and some people have a harder time with confrontation, but if she continued to do or say nothing, the bullying would continue.
The bullies are of course are at fault, and they should receive negative consequences for their actions.
Saying that the girl could have said or done something, does NOT have to be "condemning" her, but can be empowering her. The bullies were trying to take her "power"/confidence away, and because they thought she wouldn't do anything. Thinking that she Can do something, could help her feel empowered and maybe hopeful.
Ooh, another large age gap drama, very exciting. (Also yβall need to stop exaggerating itβs not like their…
We were talking about the CHARACTERS and if that was supposed to be their ages and worrying about propriety and not wanting a young, naive person being taken advantage of, especially sexually. That, concern does not equal, HATING. Just because you don't like to read it, doesn't necessarily make it "hating" or "hateful"; (at least most of the comments weren't). Also, people , especially young ones, are impressionable and may actually think to "apply" or experience these type of "situations" and think that they are good. I am not "hating" on this drama, infact I checked it out for the actors. I also, sometimes like "Noona Romances " ( but with appropriate ages & reasonable gap in age).
from tencent it's scheduled to be one of the dramas that airs this year, but no other updates so far
Okay. Well at least we know that we should be able to see it this year. That is good. Thank you for letting me know! Hopefully we will get to see it sooner rather than later. π€π
I just really hope that most of their scenes won't be cut out.π₯Ίπ
