Rolling my eyes at those of you always wanting to censor shows of the very stuff that so often provides drama. No one thinks if you enjoy an angsty plot that involves "cheating," that you're a whore. You're just an audience member. And if such plot elements upset you, stop watching.
I don't know about anyone else, but I will spend the next week re-watching the first season. This first ep has triggered a lot of memories, but I need to put them in order, or I'll never know what the hell's going on here. I seem to recall a bouncing car...
Episode 1: Physically, Kataoka is the type that, if I passed him on the street, I wouldn't find the least bit attractive. But if I had reason to meet him, and as I got to know him better, in no time at all I'd be pathetically enamored, totally whipped. That charisma/presence, the ineffable "something" that so many leaders possess, would find me following him around, doing whatever he ordered me to do, just like everyone else here. 🤪😋 I'm not into BDSM, but if Kataoka commanded it, hey, I'm game. 😮😁
Then there's Odijama, who stirs a powerful attraction but for entirely different reasons. What a cutie, and so sexy-neurotic; naturally, I'm drawn to that sort of darkness. I think a lot of you pervs here know exactly what I'm talking about regarding both of these dudes, am I right? 😉
Highlight of the episode: Kataoka's beautiful tatts moving with his body as they made love. 💯
It's not about attention as much as it is about how much cheaper and more convenient it is to make them
This is incorrect.
Vertical series are shot on Iphones or the equivalent android device, and could just as easily and cheaply be shot horizontally.
However, young phone addicts generally REFUSE to go to the "trouble" of turning their device horizontally, plus they want to keep scrolling, texting, and otherwise not paying full attention to the show they're "watching." Thus, a drama would lose 70+% of its potential audience by asking the addicts to go through the STRENUOUS 🙄 process of turning/watching their phone horizontally.
Likewise, each ep is generally kept to two minutes in length to allow the addict time to check texts, IG, TikTok, in between.
WilaFox's question/statement is 100% accurate: Vertical dramas developed to accommodate short attention spans which, as a result, have become even shorter.
I've been busy, haven't I? With all that "positioning" and "attacking," I barely have time to eat; it's true. 🤭
One doesn't have to be "intellectually sophisticated" to see where you and yours come from with your "downright(!!!) wrong" schtick, which is as simple-minded as it gets. That lazy, self-righteous silliness is as old as dirt, and just as lame now as when my mom used it 483 years ago.
SO fucking bizarre, how mdl and other K-media present this shite right alongside other industry news as if it's of equal validity and relevance. The mindset that views this reporting as legitimate and appropriate is the same as that which has resulted in dozens of Korean entertainers' suicides over the last two decades.
I'd demand you ghouls stop this shit, but yeah, that won't happen.

That's what I do.
Seems most MDLers rate as if the numbers 1-6 do not exist, and I have yet to read a coherent reason for doing that.
In 2026?
See ya.
Now, if Konika has written, "He is DOWNRIGHT leading him on," I would have understood immediately. 🤣
Thus, I won't respond.
Also, you seem unable to read.
