What would be your reaction if they humiliated your culture. If you even have one 🤭
What's with the "It's 2023" all over the place? It's 2023, so about time for every girl anywhere in the world to be able to get an education and a good joob so she can take care of herself? That 2023??
"Distorted" wow... It's ONE character. He was a fun character, he recognized that Sarang is a special person, he was friends with Gu Won all along...
Also... why are you watching K-drama if you don't like people falling for women, having a drink, having fun... It's okay for other cultures to do these things, but not your own? It's okay to watch all this stuff when you’re not allowed to do them yourselves? I'm genuinely baffled.
Or is it that you can recognize it’s “only a drama" when it’s other cultures…
When you copy American scenario that offend Arab,this will heppenyou should learn more about Arab than copy character…
If it's all so offensive... why are Arabs watching K-drama... with all the smoochies, and alcohol, and crazy plots and stuff... I mean... there are rules about things you can't do, but you can watch other cultures do them? Okay.
The amount of times Asian actors have had to play other Asian nationalities…
Other example... I'm Dutch. Do you know how many times Dutch actors have had to portray villains in American shows and movies? Many. Do you know how many times Dutch actors have had to portray (Nazi) Germans, or East Europeans? Several. Do you know how often Dutch people complain about this? Please... we've got better things to do. Like enjoying the hell out of those shows and movies…
This Prince character was enjoyable. He brought some fun. He recognized Sarang’s worth. And he parted as friends with Gu Won. What’s so negative about that...
And about the Indian actor playing him… maybe it was hard to find an Arab actor who can speak Korean so well?
Oh… and the what-if-he'd-been-gay argument… hypocritical... and also not true… there are plenty of gay stereotypes in entertainment!
lol It's called "acting." Nothing even the tiniest bit explicit was shown. You saw two 15 year-old TEENAGERS exchange…
The age of consent in Japan is 16 actually, as of this month. You're right however about the difference between real sex and acting. They didn't show much more than a small peck on the lips. Everything else is in people's heads...
japan's age of consent really needs to go up, cause that was weird as hell. Disturbing even. No need to literally…
The age of consent in Japan HAS gone up.... just this month actually (June '23)... to 16. That's for real sex though. This was acting, with a lot of suggestion involved.... they only showed a small peck on the lips... they never "litteraly showed IT"...
