YAAAAAY! The teacher loves the student! PEDOPHILIA! Hooray! :P
Seriously, fun episode. Actually, this story is comically melodramatic at times. When Sahara first walked into the river with his shoes on, and then fell to all fours while telling his tale of woe, I laughed out loud. But the overall story is charming and all the actors are incredibly cute and talented, so I'm not complaining.
Toki is so comically expressive, whether he's happy, sad, or in between, he emotes with all his heart and body. I love him. Shinji is drop-dead handsome, but Toki is drop-dead beautiful, so I'll call it a tie. Flawless ivory skin or flawless caramel skin...I'll go either way. But Toki makes me laugh a lot so he's my definite bias.
And once again, MDL gives a truly exceptional film a low rating. But then I remind myself of MDL's membership demographics and it all makes sense.
This was my third watch of this film, but this time, I read the review provided by member "bmore" two comments below before watching. Having done so made a tremendous difference in what I perceived this time that I had not before. There is so much more here than what the film has to say about the Korean military alone.
It's a real mind-blower to learn this film was done as a senior thesis at university, and that Yoon Jong Bin, who plays the somewhat dim-witted character Ji-Hoon, is THE DIRECTOR! lol Wow, the guy's amazing. I had zero suspicion during me two earlier watches that this impactful piece was created on an extremely tight budget.
Read the review first. You'll be glad you did. It contains no spoilers.
I don't block people tbh. I may disagree with them, or if I really don't like them I just don't read what they…
I used to feel similarly, but I've admitted to myself that some people are so revolting to me that I don't want to be reminded of them and their sick bullshit. In short, it's better for my mental health not to see their awful comments, nor be reminded of their existence.
An analogy: I know someone has taken a humongous dump in the bathroom off my bedroom. I also know, having opened the door unawares just minutes before, that the stench in that bathroom is eye-wateringly foul. Nauseating. Like, I nearly puked after one breath.
Was confused about who Larami was until I scrolled down. Damn, she seems upset about some personal issues, but…
I'm in "discussion" mode, and I asked you to please provide one or two of the "valid arguments" you claimed that person had made. Rather than do so, as one might do in a discussion, you've ignored the request with a misdirection-style statement, claiming you're wondering why I'm "in argument mode." I'm not. Why are you in avoidance mode?
You claimed above that you like having "discussions," so let's discuss the "valid arguments" made by the person you referred to. For us to have that discussion, you would first have to tell me what arguments you're talking about. Seems reasonable.
This happens a lot on MDL: Certain commenters make assertions, and when challenged about them, reply with "Why are you upset? You seem upset." or "Why are you so mean?" or "Who hurt you when you were five?" or "I get to have an opinion too!"
All that aside, I look forward to discussing the valid arguments the commenter in question made. Thanks.

I don't waste my time arguing with people who shit on the dead and claim the sky is red when it is clearly blue.
Secondly, what is it with MDLers who reply "you seem upset" when they encounter a strong argument against their position as a means of demeaning that argument...like you just did?
I'm not the least bit upset. I'm disgusted, I know why, and I'm perfectly calm about it.
Underrated comment belowCheating is sweet if its done by main leads.It only happens in k and j dramas that on…
Who is "we?" WHO is supporting "cheating" by female leads?
This is a MOVIE. It is fiction. It is not real life, understand. By watching and enjoying this film, no one is "supporting" cheating or anything else. They are watching a movie, being entertained and or given things to think about, after which they go home from the theatre or turn off the computer and go to bed, cook dinner, or otherwise get back to their lives.
Unlike you, most viewers don't look to fictional movies for their moral guidance. Maybe you should stop doing that.

I am curious though: Could you share one or two "valid arguments" that POS made, that you find worthy of consideration?
Doesn't the volume of vicious, unsubstantiated rumors and outright lies deliberately constructed to insinuate rather than inform, render her unreliable and beneath contempt, regardless of anything else?
“People who are blaming him should be banned from this site.”You’re complaining about celebrities being…
You treat other women like children. They don't need your condescension. Women who sell their bodies know what they're doing and it's none of your freaking business. LSK was never charged or convicted of anything. Yet you rant on, spreading vile rumours even after his death.
They’re speaking up for their friend, who continues to be harassed even after death. When Sulli and Goo Hara…
Scum bag. Now you're accusing all these people who are speaking out of hiring prostitutes? Based on what, exactly? Your tiny mind and hateful spirit? If I could reach through my computer screen and slug you, you'd be out cold right now.
Also, lmao at the two faced mess of these celebrities. The people in the comments praising them are even more…
Just STFU, you piece of filth.
You know NOTHING about how much or how little LSK's friends did or did not talk to him privately during the time he was going through absolute hell. I bet many of them talked to him daily to try to keep his spirits up. But you, you assume the worst...based on...nothing.

I'm glad I'm not seeing that crap. Plus, I'm not tempted to waste more time screaming at them.

Why would I keep opening the door?

I don't engage with such people.
Also "larami" and "xGinax."
I urge everyone here with a brain and a heart to do the same. Denying these disgusting liars an audience is the least we can do.
Karma is going to be a bitch to you.
You are slime.
