SO agree. My nature demands I continue to call out such, as the injustices in the world continue. Standing by and not calling them out, or anyone out on any issues that harm others, is acceptance and the equivalent of writing the articles themselves.

After one frustrating hour of reading yet another gossipy type/ rag article on MDL, I wrote down a list of the words used in the HEADLINES here on MDL. All were by one contributor at the time, and since has started to be picked up by the second contributor.
*declines offer *minimizes the appearance *alleged by *reposted by *receives offer *dating rumors *speculating *will finally return *decided to decline *in discussion with *in talks to join *got involved in *returns to acting after incident *apologizes *has replaced XXX with XXX
This was the minimal as I didn't go months back and I was tired of thinking about the articles and REALLY tired of calling them out in comments. On my written list I included the 'reason' the headline was speculative, rather than facts based on confirmations.
You're not wrong that Western celebrity culture can be invasive and toxic, but to say Korea isn’t worse in many…
Give it up, hun, you lost the argument when you said "Who are you to say people must support a celebrity when they don't want to and tell them how they ought to support them???: OP didn't even allude to such.
Too, inserting "The difference is that America is huge (to put into perspective, Korea is the size of Indiana...) so celebriries have way more opportunities to bounce back." is comparing apples to oranges. Percentages from both countries is a much better indicater, not land acreage or population numbers.
I recently saw something really really disgusting comment about an actor getting 50 likes. The people calling…
Too little moderation. Too much acceptance by letting all the hate remain. Do the Mods and Admins not understand what a hate comment is compared to JUST not liking a drama/movie or an actor/actress? There's quite a dif. There are Users who have nothing but time on our hands who have volunteered to help moderate. SPAM comments have remained for 5 straight days UNTIL Users begged for them to be deleted. Then the Users were chastised for reporting them. What they leave up, they condone, so MDL is complicit.
Does anyone know who plays the character of the Damo (tea girl) who serves tea to the police and Gwi Dong? Gwi Dong called her Lady Yak-a-lot in Ep 20 when he and a buddy were playing chess. I've seen her in a number of dramas and it's bugging me that I can't recall her name or what she was in to look her up.
Agree. The last episode was a disappointment with the fangirly commentary from the cameramen and Eun Woo basking in it. All 3 should be ashamed. It felt like they were trying to debase all of Kwak Dong Yeon's good traits which are skills, throughout the show with physical beauty which one is either born with or acquired through surgery. Skills vs Beauty didn't set too well with me and I knocked off 3 stars for it, and the lack of instructions to the 2 before they mounted the horses.
So many k dramas showing us just how toxic Korea is and it's really painting a picture that men cheat the most…
Kdramas not afraid to show the toxic side of their country, whereas other countries gloss it over. Infidelity, cheating, here she is commenting yet again. You watched it, didn't you? You just can't help yourself.
