Are you under the impression that Korea doesn't know about AI?

What is it about my statement, "I'm half-serious" that you don't understand?
I'd like to help, but you seem a tad dense.
Also, google "facetious" and "tongue-in-cheek."
You're welcome again.

Yes, child, I know what Boys Planet is.
Thanks for the insult.

Why are you so complacent?
"It's not that deep": the battle cry of the intellectually passive.
You're welcome for the insult.

Why are you yelling?
I said, "I'm half-serious."

AI has been around far longer than you may know, especially in China, where it's even more shrouded in secrecy than in the US.

How do you know "Boys Planet" isn't AI-produced and features AI actors/hosts/entertainers, brah?
I'm half serious.
We are in a new frontier. 😮😧🤔
I know it's a losing battle, but consider using capitalization and punctuation, brah.

Welcome to the world of Thai people and their nicknames.Which, in my opinion for those who do not speak Thai,…
Oh god, for sure.
The number of syllables in their names and words freaks me out.
I can't imagine learning the Thai language after being raised in English.

"Gunsmile."
I wonder if some of these names seem as comical to Thai performers as they do to an English speaker.
Maybe they compete for originality and humor. 😅

she claimed she was traumatized by a manager in her company years back. she got depression (and bipolar disorder…
That's interesting about declining viewership.
I take everything she and/or her agency says about these issues with a humongous grain of salt.
We never know what's true and what's PR.

It is definitely a challenge for writers and director to come up with fresh plot ideas over and over and over again...but that is their job, after all.
I like the ancient saying that there are no new stories left; they have all been told.

A writer's challenge is to re-tell a story in an original way, with original characters.
The characters will all soon be AI, though, so there's that to consider.
And China, with its fondness for all things AI, will no doubt step right into having ChatGPT or its equivalent write scripts.
I'd guess that's been happening for some time already.

How is he pansexual?
For me, we know that he SAID gender isn't a factor. 🤔
But, I suspect otherwise.
We shall see, right? 😊

ahhh...thank you!
OK, that clears up that he would turn around and come right back the next morning, because he didn't do that.
The weekend had passed.
As I mentioned above, I can be slow...🤪

Shiono, you aint slick! You came over the night before and you didnt leave for HQ BECAUSE you had appointment…
I'm slow.
Why would he do that?
So, he stayed at a hotel instead of hooking up with Takoi?
When he came in with the inspectors, I did think "How odd that he made a four-hour round-trip the night before, then came back AGAIN the very next morning."
Again...why would he do that, assuming there really are no shenanigans going on.

Either way, it's funny that the plot wasted no time getting them together, then moved immediately on to the misunderstanding/suspicion/jealousy stage. 😅

Unless there really IS something nefarious going on, but that would be too deliciously dark for a show this light...wouldn't it? 😮

Hi there!
Thanks so much.
I guess if I were more observant, I'd have seen the question/comment below. 🤪

How is he pansexual?
Yeah, I remember that, but I attribute it to self-delusion.
I told myself the same thing in the early stages of coming
out because it's hard to own being gay in a homophobic world.

The real reason he never had feelings for any of those women is that he's gay, is only romantically attracted to men, and that's cool. 😊

in photography we call it color grading or science, and post production effect may have been used. whether AI…
Oh my, a Flower Award! 😮🌹🌹😁
That's my first!
More often, I get reported to mods. 🤪

I want to thank the Academy, my agent, my director, and most of all my mom, for always believing in me...thank you, thank you so much. 🥰

I really like this show but I’m very disappointed to find out only after finishing the show who Lee kyung young…
You are misinformed.
He's not a rapist, and he was never charged with rape.
You should educate yourself before writing lies on the Internet.

LKY told a young woman who misrepresented herself as a legal adult that he'd get her work in the industry in exchange for sex.
She agreed.
In other words, she prostituted herself for favors, and she lied about her age.
There was no force or coercion, and she only got miffed about it when the work he promised didn't materialize.

Nevertheless, LKY was charged, tried, and sentenced to probation and community service by the corrupt and hypocritical Korean justice system.
Later, the Korea Supreme Court overturned and vacated LKY's conviction, a ruling that means in legal terms, the case and conviction never happened.

LKY was publicly humiliated and was blacklisted by the Korean film industry for ten years.
More than sufficient punishment for hiring a prostitute who lied about her age, don't you think?

so most schools in Asia have somewhat similar uniforms but they ofc make subtle changes because its their brand…
Yeah, I'm not objecting to the type of uniform here, but the horrid color and terrible (lack of) tailoring.

What confirms that AI was actually used?
A discerning eye, ear, and research on the Internet.
And yes, ANY use of AI should be disclosed in the end credits.
What would be the motive for not including it, other than deception?

And, given AI's capabilities that are far beyond traditional CGI, traditional cinematography, traditional music/vocal recording techniques, etc., those disclosures should be prominently displayed, rather than in miniature type hidden among other credits.

When a BL, feature film, whatever stars AI-produced characters, I want to know that in an on-screen graphic BEFORE the show starts so I have the option to depart and get my money back.
A few weeks ago, I started watching a BL short on Youtube.
A couple of scenes in, my Spidey-sense went to code red, and I looked for the fine print in the video description under the thumbnail.
Sure enough: AI.

That should have been disclosed on the screen before the show began.
Only an "What they don't know, won't hurt them" attitude could explain an objection to that being a required standard.
And when I say "required," I mean by law, not by the industry.
Time and again, history shows that for-profit institutions seldom protect their consumers from fraud, deception, and harm until legislation forces them to do so.

If what he's told me about himself is true, that's unlikely to be the case.
He says he's retired and even older than I am, which I didn't know was possible.
