And she's NOT a single mother. Stop spreading lies. It makes you look stupid and helps destroy his reputation. Sad so many so-called K-drama fans are like this. It's bloody poisonous.
Don't believe what gossipers on random forums tell you. That's the problem with the K-drama community. People who spread gossip and lies based on something they've "heard" or "think". It's what's caused a large number of actors to commit suicide over the last few decades. Idiots spreading lies.
Oh do stop spreading lies. It's so annoying. Most actors who are smart start their own agency, that way they aren't paying an agent massive percentages of the income they earn, and there is zero accurate information about him being blacklisted. Just idiot "fans" spreading rumors.
I blocked iarami ,shes part of the problem with stuff like this happening.All they do is make assumptions and…
Absolutely correct. I used to be left-wing up until a few years ago when I realized much of the left-wing had gone batshit crazy :) Now I'm middle of the road leaning conservative but, as Elon Musk said, "middle of the road conservative" is now where the left used to be before they went extreme left and "woke" and destroyed everything.
And yep on the extreme on both sides, (although the extreme on the left nowadays seems to be a majority of the left, unfortunately). Both as lunatic as each other, and best avoided :)
EDIT: And btw, the left-wing used to be the open-minded ones. Now they're the ones screaming for censorship, calling everyone "racist", a "homophobe", a "bigot", a "transphobe", "a pedophile" etc towards anyone who disagrees with their lunacy and, in America at least, are the ones heading the cancel culture bullshit.
In other words, if you post a tweet they don't agree with, they all rush to get you banned as you are just not ALLOWED to have an opinion different from theirs.
Younger left-wingers (ages 16-30) are absolutely the worst (the AOCs of the world). Very narrow-minded, see the world within a small tunnel, and anyone whose opinions don't fit into that tunnel must immediately be shut down or cancelled. It's a shame, as they're missing out on so much if they would just open their minds.
Luckily much of the world, the normal left and the normal right at least, are waking up to their woke b.s., and it's looking very much likely that it will collapse quite soon. That time can't come soon enough :)

Ah, it might be 30 then. And yep, many, many more than 30 :)
Honestly, I do not understand the toxicity of so many K-drama fans -- Korean and international.
I always think they must have a pretty sad life to not only waste it being vile about someone they have never and will likely never meet, but then also attacking the fans who are supporting the actor/actress.
Yellow Handkerchief was the first ever K-drama I watched, back in 2003, and he was the first Korean actor I thought was wonderful.
He killed himself after supposedly admitting he was guilty of sexually harassing his students (he was teaching at a university), when for the longest time he had said he was innocent of the accusations.
But that's what Korean society and the Korean news media/police do. They harass the person so long, they will eventually say they're guilty just to get it to stop.
And I always think about Choi Jin Sil and Choi Jin Young's mother when I see a list of Korean actors who have committed suicide. (Their mother was alive, while I think their father had already died?)
Imagine having two of your children kill themselves (he actually killed himself about 18 months after she did, so was the same age as his sister when she died). Must have been terrible for their mother.

Yep, I gave up. You report, and they're still there spewing their bile a month later. I think it's probably run by a very small staff, and they just don't have the time unfortunately.
He was pushed into suicide by the police (a 19-HOUR interrogation right before he killed himself), the Korean news media and their constant harassment of any celebrity they think "made a mistake" and a certain vile segment of Korean netizens who apparently have such pathetic lives they take pleasure in destroying someone else's.
He was probably so distraught by the time that 19-hour interrogation ended, and with NO ending of the investigation in sight (which was bogus bullshit and nothing less than harassment right from the start), he probably just thought he could spare his wife and kids more anguish by just removing himself from their lives.
Unfortunately, it is also in Korean culture that the "honorable way" to fix something is to just kill yourself as it helps save the family's reputation.
A warped way of thinking, but definitely responsible for a certain percentage of Korea's high suicide rate. (A Korean commits suicide every 39 minutes -- an astonishing statistic).
And this, from that article, explains much of why celebrities kill themselves:
Korea is more a shame than a guilt culture,” said Breen. “In Christian culture, there is that cycle of repentance and forgiveness, and some mercy is built into the legal system, but you don’t have that so much here, so the sense of shame is overwhelming.”
Hence, suicide becomes a method of evading humiliation. “Suicide is not an act to take responsibility … but rather an act to avoid responsibility,” said Cho.
Evasion may be an unavoidable last resort given the possibility a successful defense is so slim. Public opinion is vindictive, and the judicial system, with extremely high conviction rates, arguably favors the prosecution over the defense.
“The system is seen as unfair and vicious, so once you fall foul of it, any sense of fair play or expectation of a reasonable outcome is not there,” Breen said. “You are done for.”
AS FOR ME... :)
For me, suicide would be the absolute last thing I ever did as, when you do, these fuckers win. And I'm too big of a bitch to ever let that happen. It's such a pity more Korean actors/singers don't have that "fuck you" attitude as well, as they'd be better off if they did.

Doesn't make any sense, does it? I think it's around 50 (?) as I hit the limit last week, and it won't let me block any more people -- just says I've hit the limit. But I just deleted one person to add Iarami, as that person has severe problems, and I have no interest in having someone like that in any capacity in my life :)
Was confused about who Larami was until I scrolled down. Damn, she seems upset about some personal issues, but…
Well said.
I am so sick of the vile people in the K-drama community, both Korean and international, who think it is acceptable to destroy someone's life or to still go after them when they are dead simply because that actor's/singer's so-called 'morals' aren't the same as theirs (because, of course, THEIRS are better morals than everyone else's).
All of these vile people need to be ostracized by decent people, until they have no-one to talk to but each other.
I usually respond once, to let them know I think they are the worst kind of person, and then from then on just act like they don't exist. Life is to short to allow that kind of evil into it.

Unfortunately, MDL has a limit on the number of people you can block. But... for people like this vile person, if your block list is full like mine, just skip over their comments without reading them. That way they are talking to the air :)
Lol Ageeed! I liked the 1st episode but it progressively got boring…Currently stuck on ep 9… And now reading…
Hope you love it as much as I did. It's the one drama I recommend to anyone that asks -- well, that and Crash Course in Romance (not perfect, but very entertaining and the FL and ML are fabulous together).
And while they're at it, they should skip that annoying "eew...an orphan, no history, no parents who would teach…
FL's parents in Tell Me That You Love Me do -- after the initial shock of learning their daughter is dating someone who is older and deaf, the mother comments how she feels sorry for him being an orphan and never knowing his parents.
Her entire reservations about the relationship are because he's deaf and not really because he's deaf, just that she thinks her daughter will have to deal with difficulties she wouldn't have to cope with if he was a hearing person.
A really nice surprise as, like you, so sick of that trope.
ROTFL. Yep. And they briefly show part of the interior in The Story of Park's Marriage Contract, and its far more lavish and bigger than in Crazy Love. And that was the real interior in CL, as I remember watching a Behind the Scenes video when it aired, and it was obvious the production company had just gone in, added a couple of lamps/an ultra modern recliner and started shooting, rather than pretending the enormous living room in other dramas actually FIT into that property :)
From what I remember, the CL scenes were the only ones that also likely reflected the taste of the owner -- ultra-modern, simple, chic -- you know, the style that fits the exterior of the house :)
It's weird they use the same place though, isn't it? I used to live in LA where I stumbled across filming for a drama or movie at least once a week in my neighborhood (affluent area in Santa Monica) -- and no, it was NEVER the same house :)
Edit: And thanks for the reminder -- it was on My Demon too :)
You do see the same sets/locations a lot in Korean dramas. I've now seen the same "rich man's house" four times in recent months, starting with Crazy Love and, last night, on the third episode of The Story of Park's Marriage Contract :)
It definitely takes away from the believability of a story when you have to go "Wait, didn't Crazy Love's Noh Go Jin (Kim Jae Wook) own that house?" - hahahaha.
