Hey, suicide dweeb, I have googled relentlessly, searching for anything about a Squid Game actor who outed someone who later killed themselves. I'm getting NOTHING after multiple tries. Provide links to factual evidence or stfu.
You haven't done anything but made vague accusations and spewed innuendo without providing a shred of evidence. You do that because you're a self-righteous dweeb who has to trash other people, especially celebrities, to make yourself feel superior.
And again, you don't have the spine to use the name of the "lead" you're accusing of causing someone to kill themselves by outing them, nor have you provided links to proof. I don't know one way or the other but at least have the balls to stand behind your hateful BS.
Furthermore, if what you say is true, how is it that the production company and Netflix had no problem with him starring in the first And second seasons of this show? In Korea, production companies dump actors at the first whif of "scandal" from vultures like you.
WTF? Was this another suicide? I guess google will tell the tale...I really don't want to find out though.On edit:…
She's a coward then. Fighting back with lawsuits is the only way to start turning this insanity around. And Koreans, his wife included, have this tendency to want to sweep the latest suicide under the rug and pretend it never happened...until the next one. And then the media pretends the entire country is "shocked and stunned," as if the new one is the first in 50 years.
I had hopes last January when the director of "Parasite" and many other powerful industry people came together and held that news conference demanding justice and reforms after LSK's death. It's been a year now. I don't see anything significant happening. Meanwhile, two more actors offed themselves in 2024. It's maddening.
WTF? Was this another suicide? I guess google will tell the tale...I really don't want to find out though.On edit:…
Korea overall has the highest rate of suicide by far of all developed countries. It's not only celebs, but it's even worse among them. Korea also has the highest rate of alcoholism of all developed countries. It's tremendously sad.
I say this as someone whose favorite movies and many BLs are Korean. That's why this continued slaughter upsets me so much.
By the way, yesterday was the one-year anniversary of the suicide of perhaps Korea's overall greatest actor, Lee Sun Kyun. His blackmailers were convicted and sentenced to THREE and FIVE years respectively a couple weeks ago. That's all. That's it. For blackmailing him for a quarter million $$$ and driving him to kill himself.
No cops or detectives have been charged for all the leaking, and likely won't be. Korean cops might be a bit more corrupt than even ours here in the U.S., and that's saying something.
I wish his widow would start suing people but I've a feeling she won't. ugh.
Wu Kang Ren' performance here is better than a lot of work American actors win Oscars for. With every film of his I discover, I am more impressed. There is no distance between him and the characters he courageously takes on. Wow.
Aviis Zhong is equally remarkable. She took me from loathing her character to wanting to comfort and protect her. Not easy to do.
Shelly Yu as the mother is outstanding as well. Just an excellent film that just went on my 30 Best list.

On edit: Give me a break. A 32-year-old Korean actor dies suddenly? It's suicide until I see proof otherwise. Only in Korea do healthy, young actors drop dead of mysterious, unconfirmed ailments; and only in Korea and in MDL BL threads do people accept the word of a family and production agency as to cause of death without receipts.
"Wow." That was my one-word response when this show ended. Far more than I expected, given its format, length, and budget. Other than a lack of extras, I saw nothing else to indicate a lack of resources. The acting/direction/sound/picture, all was fairly first rate. I teared up, I got turned on, I laughed. It's really quite good.
Both leads are excellent, but I was especially impressed with the older/boss character and actor. He played that part flawlessly. Confident but not arrogant, lecherous but not slimy, charming but not trying too hard. I liked his character immensely. The couple's chemistry is among the best I've seen, maybe THE best I've seen from a web drama.
I'd love to see more of these two.
Where are all the MDL Church Ladies shrieking about "pedophilia!!!" and "sexual harassment!!!" in this thread? Maybe there are some in comments below that I haven't seen. I'll go looking...
Rating against other web series: 10/10 Rating against all other BLs: 8.5/10 Overall: 9/10
The great acting continues. Jeon Yu Bin has the most fascinating upper lip. The way the sides dip down and then back up is adorable and sexy, like two halves of a drapery pulled aside to reveal what's behind them... :)
episode 3: For the love of god, please ease up on the kabuki white face powder! The younger one in particular looks like a Geisha girl. This is a frequent problem in Korean BLs. I assume it stems from Korean society's obsession with fair skin and physical perfection in general; such that even makeup people lose sight of the line between natural and unnatural. These guys look like Geisha Vampires. Which is unfortunate, given that both are good-looking.
You know, I used to get annoyed at the abusive drinking BL trope, but the truth is that especially in Korea, getting shit-faced almost every day after work is standard behavior. Korea has the highest rate, by far, of alcoholism, alcohol abuse, and all its associated societal/cultural costs of all developed nations. So, viewed in this light, the drinking here is an accurate portrayal of the lives of these two young office workers.
That said, the drunk kiss is one of the most affecting I've seen in BL, both tender and sexual. I gasped.
It's also true that the world over, getting drunk to lower your inhibitions and make moves you'd otherwise be too cautious to make, is standard behavior for young and old alike.
These two actors are remarkably natural and believable. I like it.
After 2 episodes: Wow, I'm surprised how good this is. Given the 9-minute segments in a YT-only format, I figured it would be a quick try-and-drop. I was wrong. Acting is excellent, as are the production values. I see in comments below that others were confused by the plot...I guess? Maybe it will all fall apart as I go but after two episodes I see no confusion whatsoever.
Omg that was so sexy, I can’t even. I’m loving the height difference too.
yep, that's how I see it too. Gosh, I remain shocked at how good this show has become. I said earlier that I almost dropped it at the end of two episodes. I like elements of both lead characters, but the show overall felt too much like a stupid Thai BL (and there are a LOT of stupid Thai BLs). But the plot and acting got better with each episode. Even the overuse of dorky sound effects dropped off rapidly after the first two episodes. Maybe the director simply overdid those in an effort to evolve the show from silly/goofy to sexy/dramatic. If so, he accomplished that but nearly lost me and some others before the noticeable switch in emphasis began.
...and he looked so beautiful 😍😭 Sadly, I heard they had a falling out and unfollowed each other or something…
Oh bummer... do you have a link about that off-screen drama to share? Someone needs to get on the stick about making that sequel, as it is wildly in demand. And I have the perfect plot frame for it so I wish they'd call me! :D
For its genre (silly, goofy, sweet, sentimental sports-themed comedy), this is good! There are a number of flaws but in the SGSSSTC genre, flawlessness is not a requirement. This flick has a big heart.
I could have done without that ending, but oh well...I still enjoyed the film overall.
Ahn Jae Hong is excellent as always! There's something indefinable about him I have always found sexy. :) I'd take him over the drop-dead handsome soccer player any day. Park Ho San was probably 15 years too old for his part, but it doesn't matter. It's that kind of silly but good flick. Kang Bong Sung is adorable as Jae Hong's seaweed-devouring sidekick.
If you like the kind of movie I described above, this is a good one.
How many times in BL World has a character broken their beloved's heart and soul by deserting them to "go abroad "...for their own good, despite how much we were made to believe they loved them?" About 357 times, that's how many. No one cares what you "expect" from the character. As we're shown in the preview, Sean is going to be confronted with the exact trope I described, regardless of whether he stays or goes.
My top/bottom joke, which you chose to take in earnest, is based on science, my child. To be explicit, the only way Johnathan's joke, "it'd be yours" makes any sense is if he had been ejaculated INTO rather than the other way around, don't you agree? People who ejaculate into someone else during intercourse are NOT the ones who get pregnant. Did you know that?
Consider the evidence before lecturing someone else and making yourself look silly again. Of course, the motivation for your second paragraph is primarily to wax self-righteous about how it's "none of our business" who tops or bottoms in a BL. However, it is my business when a show I'm watching MAKES it my business; otherwise, I would agree. But this isn't real life. This is fiction. I didn't walk up to a couple on the street and inquire who was f**king whom, now did I? I made a joke based on dialogue in a BL.
If you're practicing to be a humorless scold when you grow up, you're well on your way.

Yeah, I don't buy the "heart attack" story. It's another suicide until I see proof indicating otherwise.

And Koreans, his wife included, have this tendency to want to sweep the latest suicide under the rug and pretend it never happened...until the next one.
