No, Suho knows nothing. He only knows he needs to get the professor to the North, and he trusts his country will save him and his squad if they do their job well. He has no more idea about the background political deals than the ANSP field agents do.

Also, that man is not his real father. His biological father was billed a reactionary and banished to a mine. The powerful guy is either his mother's second husband, or just someone who saw the boy's potential and offered him a chance for redemption as a spy. Doubt he cares much about Suho when he is no more a useful tool.

This controversy was never a spontaneous uproar, it was always about present day politics. The current ruling party's leaders have "participant of the democracy movement" as one of their main credentials. And back in spring during the first petition, it was pushed hard on forums where the current president's supporters hang out.

Also, the whole scandal is a godsend for many parties. Elections are next spring, and both leading presidential candidates had to apologize for wrongdoings of their family members recently. There is a huge corruption scandal, with two "suicides" already, looming in the background, potentially tied to the left's leading candidate. Something that serves as distraction and rallying cry at the same time? Just what the doctor ordered...

Add to that clickbait journalism, fandoms eager to take down rivals, and koreaboos yearning to showcase their social awareness as soon as someone presses the right buttons (just claim "alt right propaganda"), and we get the perfect storm in a teacup...

Then key is for the door of the secret room or corridor, whatever she hides in there.

probably taped something on her leg, like a knife or gun

Unfortunately, this court decision means nothing for the haters, who scared away the sponsors and advertisers in the first place. They will continue to harass anyone associated with the drama.

On the other hand, here's some clever marketing strategy: pay some ads during Snowdrop episode, wait until boycott crew starts to clog your lines, apologize and announce you are not advertising anymore, see your sales increase as protesters now promote your brand 🤷‍♀️

They knew from the very beginning that they won't be able to stop the drama the legal way. That is why they keep coming up with lies and distortions to create public uproar, trying to force jtbc into cancelling it.
And they are bloody furious because the norm in Korea is that companies immediately give in and apologize, no matter how ridiculous the claims are... see also the case of Mr Queen.

Snowdrop is nothing like normal kdramas. In episode 5 we got conflict and stakes that would be penultimate episode stuff in an ordinary drama. How will they get out of the situation, and what will fill the rest of the screentime? Maybe everyone dies in ep6 and the remaining episodes will be flashbacks.

yes

I don't think I owe you an explanation or apology, sorry. Feel free to block me.

There have been a number of burner accounts created exclusively to make drama in this comment section, so those of us who often hang out here are cynical when a freshly made account leaves a generic negative comment.

But of course, people who actually tried the drama and found that it doesn't suit their taste have every right to say so.

Wish you fun on MDL!

Your opinion is perfectly valid. But writing a more detailed comment about why exactly you think the drama sucks would have gone a long way to show you were not just trolling. Especially since your account is only a few hours old.

Very kind of you to create a brand new account just to enlighten us.

Yes, that's exactly what is going on. They get hate comments and threats, and knetz are hoping to bury their careers forever.

They are currently raging against Yoo Inna too, who happened to narrate a documentary about artifacts in a museum of history.

He is the ANSP agent obsessed with catching the ML. He has been in the drama from episode 1. Currently trapped inside the building with the other hostages.

Oh look, another article with a source that is impossible to authenticate, trying to stir up the controversy again.
It almost seems like an agenda is at work...

there are a lot of different agendas at work with this controversy, anyone who still thinks it is mainly about the victims of an oppressive regime is very naive...

Yes the professor is South Korean. He was not hiding there, he was just attending the mess.

The NK spies were not hiding there or operating from there, Suho sneaked in, disguised, to catch the professor in a private place.

The church they used for filming is not the famous cathedral, nor does it look even remotely like it.

There were no priests or nuns involved in the scene, nor any reference to democracy activists.

Every single accusation they made was a lie.

At this rate, they might say that the NK spies are wearing pants, so did student activists, therefore it is an attempt to defile their memory or something...

they are super sensitive about their own history, but really insensitive about other countries and people

I think they have no legal way to stop the drama (which makes them doubly mad). So they continue to spread fake news to whip up public uproar.
Hope non-radicalized Koreans are starting to see through them by now...

Now that cathedral thing was another blatant lie they made up, the drama didn't use the "iconic cathedral", referenced the iconic bishop or whatever his rank was, and never showed the church as a nest of NK spies.

They are spreading so many lies to support their propaganda... and they dare to say that Snowdrop distorts history, when they distort and manipulate everything.
