Bullshit. Removing Kim Sae Ron was ENTIRELY within the control of Netflix, and they should have told Knetz and the psycho Korean Suicide Machine to fuck themselves and left her in the series. Nobody outside Korea cared, and Korea is a teeny tiny market for a show that was released all over the world.
Netflix is partly responsible for KSR's eventual suicide. "Out of their control," my ass.
Who else would control that decision other than Netflix?!
The last 3/4 episodes had to be re-written after Sae-Ron left and i think thats why they feel off...i get the…
Kim Sae Ron did not "leave," she was brutally cut out of the show as if she never existed, which led to her eventual suicide. Netflix and the director gave Knetz the kill they were after, so fuck them too.
Netflix needs to stop commissioning Korean content if they're going to bend to Knetz insanity every time an actor shows a human frailty. Nobody outside Korea cares if an actor drives drunk, has a crash that doesn't kill or hurt anyone, is punished by the legal system, and then returns to work. No actor would be cut from a show like KSR was, especially considering the size of her role.
Fuck vampire Killer Knetz and the system that enables their sickness.
Fuck Netflix and Bloodhounds director for erasing Kim Sae Ron from this show, as though she was nothing, for the usual Korean celebrity crime of being human, which led directly to her suicide.
really fucking excited I'm gonna binge this in one day if all episodes drop at the same time which I imagine they…
How does "fucking excited" differ from plain, old "excited?" Is it more intense or does it involve an added sexual element, as in being "excited to fuck?"
No words for the Knetz/media vampires/industry cowards/Korean public who sent him God's way over a "controversy"…
You are part of the problem.
Of course, you'd write a long paragraph defending the silence with which Korea surrounds its huge suicide problem. Typing "RIP" after the latest Korean celeb suicide and leaving it at that (because there are other bad things happening in the world!!!!), is part and parcel of Korea's horrendous culture of denial that only makes the problem worse.
Korea has, by far, the highest rate of suicides among developed nations. It's not just celebrities. It's nice that you don't want to talk or write about it, though.
Sigh...how did I miss this? I hadn't heard a word about Jung Eun Woo's suicide. This was just two months ago, too! MDL and Korean media are great at moving right along past a suicide, eager to pretend it didn't happen. They go on and on and on when there's some bogus "controversy" to flog, but once they've gotten a kill, it's on to the next victim.
Thanks for the tip, though I feel horrible having to add his name to my list. What a beautiful man he was.

I asked the question because so many people, perhaps most people, in Korea/Asia, tend to greet the latest horrific, unnecessary, celebrity suicide with the usual "RIP," etc, without giving thought to, and condemning, the sadistic fan/media/Knetz/law enforcement machine that causes most of them.
This empty "RIP" reaction seeks to gloss over the suicide, pretend it came out of nowhere, couldn't have been prevented, and to move everyone past it so they can focus on driving the next unfortunate victim into the headlines.
Your "May god receive him in heaven" remark, made without mention of how this death came about, struck me as fomenting that poisonous mindset. I am sick/sick/sick of Korea's Celebrity Suicide Machine. It has killed far too many.
No words for the Knetz/media vampires/industry cowards/Korean public who sent him God's way over a "controversy" for which there was no evidence and no charges?
Damn every time I see the word "depression" it makes me sad.
He was "depressed" because Knetz/Koreans/media/industry cancelled him and destroyed his career over accusations for which there was no evidence and no charges. Stop enabling suicide, please.
"K-drama actor Lee Sang Bo ___________ away at 44"
At last, an honest headline from Lily Malice! Because Lee Sang Bo did not PASS away, as the Great Korean Celeb Suicide Machine loves to claim he and other suicides did, he KILLED HIMSELF after years of harassment following yet another faux "controversy" during which judgment was rendered and punishment handed out in the form of media/Internet abuse, cancellation, and career destruction.
All this for the crime of being accused of BS for which he was never charged due to a lack of evidence. Lack of evidence and charges never stops the Machine, though. "Where there's smoke, there's fire, even though we've never seen any," is a prime Killer Knetz slogan.
Sadly, I've added Lee Sang Bo to my ever-growing list of Korean celebrities dead by suicide: https://kisskh.at/list/1drDvBV3
It's been a while since the Machine got a fresh kill. I hope you and yours, Lily, enjoy your latest meal. Well done, Killer Knetz. Be proud of your work.
So, it seems I've reached the part that makes most, if not all K-dramas, a challenge: the draggy middle third. Considering all that's going down at this point, it's remarkably boring. The FL has become a bit of a psycho bitch, but in a boring way. The ML has become fixated and obsessed, but in a boring way. Their "relationship" has gone nowhere, is in neutral mode, and is boring. The FL's husband is...jealous, I guess (but why, he doesn't care about her romantically?), but that, too, is boring. Is he hot for the ML and that's why he's jealous? I've no idea, and if that's the case, even that is boring at this point. Most scenes are sloooooooow and...boring.
This should have been no more than 8 episodes; they're killing time now.
The best thing about this show is the writing. Second best is the naturalistic acting/comedic timing. These guys are hilarious.
Naturally, this being MDL, no one here is watching it. I'm watching as the eps are released, but also looking forward to rewatching as a binge when all have aired.
I'm going to give this one a look sometime soon.

Try reading what I actually wrote, not what you imagine, and then respond to that if you want to.
