You mean jtbc should satisfy their ego??? Apparently jtbc have given their clarification on the matter...what…
Agreed fam about Jisoo drama, this is a kind trigger. Here in Brazil we had a dictatorship and even now we dont accept when people try distorting the history to seems to be a good time. As an international fan, I really would like to see this drama but I will completely understand if it has to be canceled... therefore will not interfere but do nothing since it is not about my country nor my history
I know , they are happy with this small victory but they can't see the bigger lose later , it's funny some people…
lol the writers who are doing sageuks in futures are now changing all plots to fictions with false kings and false evidents. Except some, who writers said will keep true evidents. This is better and people won't criticize. Everyone is happy the end
It seems some losers sitting around at home busy signing online petitions to cancel several kdrama got access…
Let me put in my two cents.
So based on research Jisoo's character is named after this lady: " Chun Young Cho a well-known student protestor who survived questioning and torture at the infamous Namyeong-dong National Police Agency, which was known to house the "most perfectly concealed torture chamber" of the time, but her husband, Jung Moon Hwa, was also captured and framed as a "spy and conspirator of the government" during the democracy movement. After his imprisonment, Jung Moon Hwa died at a young age due to malnutrition".
Jae In character is based on this guy "According to a synopsis released by broadcasting station JTBC, Snowdrop is based on the real life memoirs of a man who escaped from a North Korean political prison camp. In 1987, amid tear gas explosions, the man, like the character Im, escapes to a female college dormitory while injured and is treated by a female student. The man turns out to be an armed spy, and is later forced to choose between his mission and the woman who saved him, who he also comes to fall in love with."
So the drama "Snowdrop" will be using the real name of a revered protest leader to fall in love and hide an enemy, that her husband was tortured in real life as being, as well as many many other people who were also tortured and died. I know that a Nazi and a Jew can fall in love and that would make a wonderful love story. But when you take on the name of someone known to have fought for something and turn her story into a love story between the very enemy she was fighting against, including love interests from the people who captured and tortured her husband in real life, that just doesn't cut it. PLUS the woman is still alive. If you want to make a drama using her name, tell her true story. If not use fictional names.
I suggest we wait for another JTBC statement to clarify the amount of questionable stuff in this drama. It's clear…
Ikr even JTBC director said that these students who were involved in this protesting back then is all "spies" and "not true koreans" causing to more drama and hates now
