This is the exact definition of gaslighting right here.

calling countries "third world" = part of the problem

Well guess what, "kiddo" I guarantee I'm older than you and I've been trying to give you advice for a few days now and you aren't listening. And I disagree wholeheartedly with your statement that somehow you have the right to know a place better than someone else who lives there or is from there. Why don't you sit down and listen to your elders for once and stop being so condescending to people? Oh, and are you actually from France like your profile says?

So you're still here spamming every comment, I see. You know, you've been given the opportunity to learn something over these past few days - to listen to another person's lived experience, and to maybe learn something that's counter to the narrative that you've obviously been taught (and that's done you a serious disservice.) But you're waking up everyday and choosing ignorance instead, doubling down on the absolute statements, and generally just being obtuse and willfully misinformed. You keep repeating the ridiculous "prove it" demands over and over again, however the "proof" has already been provided - you just refuse to accept it, or even admit that there might just maybe be some truth that runs counter to what you've been spewing all over this page lately. Your world seems small and insular, and that's sad actually.

I've really loved eavesdropping on this exchange, and I agree with everything you both said so much!!

Your earlier comment! It’s a direct quote from you, “kiddo”

You are choosing to stay willfully ignorant.

"the poor, helpless, and impoverished black people in Africa"????? What in the actual f*ck is this comment??! WOW. This comment is so blatantly bad in SO MANY ways I don't even know where to start. All I can say is that in one comment you have managed to prove every single criticism on here completely and 100% accurate. This kind of thinking is the very height of white saviorism, of continued colonial thinking, and is just flat out wrong.

So your only answer to a comment that was filled with personal experiences, factual statements, and constructive criticisms was, "Nope, you're wrong, actual person from an actual African country, I know better than you about your own reality, because whatever I believe must be the universal truth for everyone because I say so." Get tf outta here with that. I've read a lot of comments on this thread today but your "Swallow your own pride and face your own reality" comment is by far the most patronizing and condescending one I've read yet.

WTF is this comment even trying to say?

"Being cheated on is like a wound that scars, it is always there." As a person who's had that experience, I know what you mean, but not everyone in the world reacts to situations and circumstances the same way, and we can't expect them to.

I agree, and I think you have very eloquently said what's been missing amidst all the negativity around this story. (And I say this as the one who's been cheated ON, not the cheater, lest anyone get the wrong idea.)

I agree with you 100%. And I sometimes wonder about the general age and life experience of folks here on MDL and if that really colors the reviews and ratings.

For being a K-drama from 2016, this doesn't deserve all the hate it gets, but I was definitely more invested in the second couple than the first.

This looks really good, and is in my queue already. I love the theme and the characters and general design look amazing from the trailer.

Wow, that's crazy...hopefully that means they're planning to release it somewhere else? (We can hope, even if it's unlikely...)

HAHAHAHAHA....I was just thinking the same thing about PBnJ.......I almost never get to see your comments outside of our messages!! LOL!

You're being very annoying right now. Stop acting like you're the overlord of what is good and what isn't. And your list looks like you mostly watch historical C-dramas, so I'm not sure what makes you think you're the expert here on sageuks. Let me say this AGAIN, we are NOT going to agree here, so just let it be and leave your lmaoos for someone else.

By the way, I also loved Someday or One Day (in my top ten) but so is Just Between Lovers. So *again* let's just agree to disagree because you're just not going to convince me that it was dull, boring, torture, or had terrible writing, etc, etc, etc because I don't think any of that is true. I think it was actually one of the best portrayals of trauma in k-dramaland.
(Also, you do know that The Red Sleeve is based on actual historical figures, right?)

There's always the option of just not watching it.
