It's funny how you seem so bothered by the simple fact that I don't like your favourite netflix kdrama of the year. You say I have a right to my opinion, but right before that you're insinuating that I don't understand what I am watching. Interesting.

Judging by your username and comment, I'm assuming you're a man. Mr thriller expert, I'm entitled to expressing my views as much as you are, thank you very much. Perhaps attempt to have a civilized discussion without bringing gender into it for no good reason? Otherwise, feel free to ignore my comment ☺️

This could have made a decent movie... But 8 episodes is wayyyy too long for what it is. 60% of it is a whole lot of nothing, the theme is very straightforward but barely even ties in with the story. They keep repeating the same message in the start of every episode but it hardly serves any purpose, maybe other than yapping at us "hey, remember what our show is about??" Seriously, the pretentiousness was leaking from the screen. Like, I get the point already! Stylishness and a FL that's easy on the eyes isn't going to save an empty and soulless plot. I had to stop watching on my TV and switch to a device where I could use 1.5x speed.

Even so, the sad truth is that this barely average thriller is already among the better netflix korean releases this year. Almost everything else is worse than this. Just goes to show how korean shows have seriously declined in quality 😩

You have to know that this guy was acquitted. Koreans think he was falsely accused in the case. He's literally been out and about starring in big productions and variety shows with his labelmates etc. Regardless of what we think, his reputation in Korea is NOT the same as on twitter. So how do you even know that SHS or SJH know about this entire thing? You can't expect that all his colleagues know of the details of HIS lawsuit that happened years ago. Seriously, it's his own issue, criticize him but keep innocent people out of it.

My logic is perfectly fine. It is you who's not being objective about this. The "healing" and "romancing" is all part of the job in the end. This guy probably made more bank and gained more fame from all those seasons of Sweet Home, than he will ever make from this show. If yall want him blacklisted, you should be boycotting ALL of his shows. (Though it's also pointless since the koreans see no issue with him, but still.) Like, Squid Game 2 is literally a giant blockbuster guaranteed to top Netflix charts. Does it make any sense for you to be fine with him being in that - just because it doesn't have romance, but not this drama which is clearly a small-ish production?? This selective hating serves zero purpose at all!

I am looking forward to this, but they somehow made the second poster look AI generated. Is it just me? Also it's a bummer that so many of the promising upcoming shows aren't streaming on netflix.

I like that PSH is taking on a new character but honestly, this poster looks more like fan art to me.

I wonder why some are swearing to boycott this drama because of the ML, but also watched Sweet Home despite the fact that its first season aired much closer to his scandal 🤨 I've also seen comments on twitter blaming SHS for agreeing to act with him, and some towards his female co-stars for his upcoming movies. As if it was their call and not the casting teams'. I have never seen such criticism when it came to his other recent works. Some people are just hypocrites, or maybe they suddenly develop moral principles in situations where they get to hate on women?? 🙄🤮

There's still no chance. Each country only submits one movie, Revolver is far from being well received enough to qualify. Exhuma will most likely be chosen but that also doesn't guarantee a nomination

Lmfao ikr, like sorry but what do yall take the Oscars for...

“As Oh has common sense, she likely knew the difference between sexual relations that one secretly does not want to engage in and r*pe that occurs with oppressive tactics."

I see a huge problem in this that you don't. Who says that "oppressive tactics" need to be used to count as r*pe? What exactly does that mean anyway - physical force? His own testimony stated that he did not ask for or receive consent. The word that begins with r literally means intercourse without consent. Idk what you mean by "they did perfectly well" but there are red flags in this entire text. Such laws are the reason why women who are victims of s*xual crime don't have the courage to speak up!

Anyways, let's stop here. You think he's innocent and I'm not convinced that he is, the end.

The court ruling: “There is room for suspicion that the two people had consensual s*x. However, A not wanting s*xual relations is consistent with her testimony and there is probability that s*xual relations took place against A’s will.” They continued, “Based on Lee Jin Wook’s testimony, there was no asking of consent for s*xual relations nor was consent given by A. In light of this, the indictment and crime cannot be proven.”

Is a man who did not ask for or get consent truly innocent, or is SK's justice system simply f**ked up?

The male lead is a whole alleged r*p*st, and people here are saying the female lead isn't pretty enough for him?? I have officially seen it all!

I may be very wrong about this, but why do I feel that her agency is pretty incompetent/not great at getting deals? Her recent projects are either low budget movies or lower/mid-level production dramas… Ofc she’s very active and is still doing well, but honestly, I thought her career trajectory would have been much better than this after 2 big rating hits. She's one of the best in terms of acting but somehow barely has any awards. I know she has the public channel ones but those are basically attendance awards.

And after scanning the artists under YNK, I kinda think I'm right cos Moon Chaewon is her labelmate and where has she even been after flower of evil??
