Add to the above user's comment, there's also the Korean audience that cannot take a slightly bit of controversy…
As for me , I was tired of seeing unnecessary sex scenes in Western series and especially of seeing women in degrading situations (Think of Game of thrones), that's why I like watching Korean dramas. I fear that, to please a larger audience, especially from the US, K dramas will change and lose what makes them enjoyable for me.
Challenge to romance drama makers:have the 2 leads be total strangers, without forcing them to interact due to…
It's always the same story: the two leads knew each other when they were kids ; life separated them, one or the other (or both) lost their father (or their mother or both parents) in a tragic accident (or a traumatic event of the same kind), and they find each other again in their 30ths and fall in love! Conclusion: if you didn't have a playmate of the opposite sex when you were a kid, your love life is doomed to failure! :)
People don't go to movie theaters as often as they used to do because they find all the content they want at home via platforms like Netflix or Disney and even for free on the internet. So , they don't want to buy tickets to see a movie. As for me I rarely go to the movie theater now, although there is one 2 m from my house!
I'm sure Lee Chae Min will do a great job, "Je suis jeune, il est vrai mais aux âmes bien nées, La valeur n'attend pas le nombre des années." ( Corneille)
They make dramas about anything like beer with Brewing love and now potatoes! I hope it's better than Brewing love; although the beginning was quite "refreshing" (:) ) the story was boring...Kang Tae Oh's other works were good, so I hope this new drama turn well too...
Right because Koreans are the benchmark of morality, right? Lol.
1 I'm 72 years old, so who's the kid, here? 2 Why so much anger when you didn't even understand what I said? Instead of insulting people by calling them idiots, reread what I wrote: I was just stating facts: I took photos of the banners, period. 3 I am French and I know how many French people would have reacted. 4 As for me, I have always been a strong advocate for oppressed peoples. For example, I support the Native Americans (and have many friends from different NDN nations) who were locked up in reservations whose territory has been constantly shrinking, and I can only find a comparison between the map that shows what is left of their territory and the map that shows how much the territory granted to the Palestinians has been constantly shrinking. 5 I don't take Koreans'reactions for "the benchmark of morality"!
I was in Seoul last November and I noticed (and took photos of) large banners in the city center along the canal saying "Thank you, Israel for fighting for free world." In France, this would have provoked massive protests but in Seoul no one seemed offended.
