You obviously cannot READ. She never knew the victim, nor vice-versa.How do you know there WAS a victim at all?…
OK, so she was forced to transfer. We know nothing else about that situation other than that it was not connected to this latest BS.
So now...how about links to proof of her dad and her "harassing" a woman for feeding stray cats? What exactly happened? What is meant by "harassing?" Did anything happen? How do we know? Oh...someone put up a "post."
Now back to the current controversy:
This was a guy. He says she "slapped him for NINETY MINUTES." This guy stood in one spot and let some chick slap him for an hour and a half? Why would he do that? Were there other people holding him in place? What are their names? If not, why didn't he run away and report her to the school administration? Will you not admit this is a weird story? Don't you have questions about it? IF not, why not? It's a questionable story.
Bullying is a deep rooted issue of K society, they all have done it at one point in their life. They [victims]…
Are you Korean and living in Korea? I'm trying to determine if your eagerness to see another Korean actress kill herself is due to your nationality, or if this psychosis is prevalent in other Asian countries as well.
You guys need to stop with the victim blaming.1. She admitted to getting expelled for bullying. Do you know how…
1. No, she didn't.
2. Please provide links to reliable sources for your accusation of serial name-changing.
3. Because there were no victims to contact, since there were no incidents.
3B. It was the "victim's" responsibility to contact her so that she would know something that never happened was about to be thrown in her face two decades later.
You obviously cannot READ. She never knew the victim, nor vice-versa.How do you know there WAS a victim at all?…
Like I said, you cannot read: Where in this article does it say "she admitted she got EXPELLED for bullying in high school?" If you are referring to some other source for this info, please provide a link. If not, shut up.
Where's your link to a reliable source for the "post" about her and her dad harassing a woman, blah blah blah? So someone, somewhere, put up a "post" and you chose to believe it as fact.
She not only said she didn't know the accuser, her agency investigated and concluded they never knew each other, and the agency publicly said so, something they do not do lightly.
She doesn't have a "dirty past," YOU have a dirty soul.
AGAIN: Where is the admission of being expelled due to bullying? Show me. Provide facts. Unsubstantiated rumors and hateful crap like you are spewing are not facts. Do you truly not understand that? Why on Earth are you so eager to see this person's career be over? What do you care? Does it make you feel powerful to tear down others anonymously? Or are YOU willing to provide YOUR name and address since you're spreading this crap?
yikess everytime i log in someones in trouble for their terrible past or current scandal
NO. They're "in trouble" for lies made up by anonymous haters who don't have the balls to show their face or give a name. They're "in trouble" because of trash news outlets like MDL that run this garbage. This young actress is now in serious danger of suicide. When are you people going to figure this out?
You guys need to stop with the victim blaming.1. She admitted to getting expelled for bullying. Do you know how…

Some bullying behaviors were probably very common in the past because of the seniority culture in SK society (including…
YOU ARE A SUICIDE-ENABLER. There is NOTHING to these accusations, as the article clearly states, yet here you are doing the usual Korean-suicide-fan-culture BS and repeating the allegations as if they're true.
A person hiding behind the cover of anonymity, making accusations without any evidence? How does stuff like this…
The fact MDL ran this is revolting, especially in light of LSK's recent suicide. Yes, SUICIDE, not "extreme choice" or "unhappy departure to be a star in the sky." I can't even with Korean scandal culture anymore.
Take this garbage post down. There is nothing to these accusations, as clearly stated in the article itself. But of course, Korean media and MDL publish it anyway.
is it hard for the K-entertainment industry to filter the people they make into stars? Why each time one of them…
Are you an idiot? There is NOTHING to this story. MDL should never have published it. The agency investigated and none of the accusations are true. Do you need a hammer to hit you over the head to get this? wtf?
Korean scandal-mongers will seemingly never stop slinging unverified mud and shit until the next suicide. After which they'll start it up again.
Wow. I have never done a 180-degree turn on my opinion of a BL as hardcore as the one I did on this show. I hated most everyone and everything about the first episode, but by the last I was almost entirely won over. I would recommend this to anyone. Which doesn't change my firm position that drama or film or whatever, if a show takes more than an hour to even begin to rope me in, then something's wrong.
On the other hand, because I did keep watching, often for reasons as shallow as Jooha's lips and pecs, I got the thrill of that 180 degree turn, along with some genuinely moving moments, as well as some laughs too. There were too many lazy tropes and cliches, but at least the two blatant trip/fall/catch incidents were creatively executed.
I'm still debating exactly why Seoheon found it necessary to do what he did near the end after he learned all the background, so if anyone cares to enlighten me, I am open to suggestions. I have a theory, but it's pretty lame.
OK, one comment on each character, then the production as a whole:
Seheon: Power-twink bottom with sass and a backbone from the start. Bravo! Taeyi: Brooding, mostly passive jerk to romantic hero. Bravo! Doyoon, he of the blue-black tresses: Funny, sincere, kind and loving. Bravo! Jooha: Pecs, lips, great acting skills. The actor made me believe Jooha's character arc. Bravo! Taejoon: Best smile and dimples on a dead BL character. Bravo! Sejin: His seeming lack of ANY guilt or remorse, right to the end, was creepy. Boo... Seheon's dad: Asshole. Boo... The teacher: Dull. Boo...
Production: Too many gauzy filters, white face powder, and lip gloss. The editing, which when combined with the actors' efforts, made the musical sequences entirely believable and, especially the final one, a treat for the eyes. It was lovely. I kept thinking of that awful Thai BL, 2gether, and how one of the two leads, who was supposed to be a great guitar player, was never shown doing anything much more than strumming the instrument and smirking. I'm too lazy to research it: Who did the vocals for the final number? Love the voice. Seheon's outfits were all two sizes too big in the traditional Korean BL tradition, but the white clown shoes in the final scene sealed the deal. The progression of kisses from dead-fish to open-mouth, was genius.
The most moving scene in the entire series was Joo Ha coming clean to Dowoo in the hallway in...episode 7, I believe. I cried. He's a good actor.
All in all, I'm docking three points for wasting over an hour of time, then adding one and a half points back for making me do that 180, and for some truly touching and also funny scenes. The one near the end in which Doyoon kept catching our leads smooching, and everyone acted awkward, was hilarious.
If you'd have told me, when I was about to drop this halfway through episode 1, that I would shed tears for Jahoo's pain and loneliness, I would have smacked you. His pecs are life itself, even under a tee shirt. Jahoo and Doyoon horsing around/flirting on a BB court is a beautiful thing.
A lot of pieces of paper and photographs conveniently falling out of books, but whatever...
Wow. This has gone from terrible to fairly good, clown-white powder and lip gloss aside. WTF, an actual, honest-to-god, lips-to-lips kiss! Seheon has turned out to be one of my fave BL wispy, willowy, little bottoms. He has sass and spunk, and has always stood up for himself, in contrast to what I expected from him based on his physique. I lived for Doyoon's slo-mo, spinning-his-head-around to look at the camera shot, shimmering blue-black hair flying around his handsome face. Glad to see Jooha's pillow lips back onscreen. It's the ever-so-slight up-turned corners of his mouth and the under bite that compound his lipuncular hotness. Plus, I'm guessing he rocks a nice bod. How shallow and looksist of me.
So now...how about links to proof of her dad and her "harassing" a woman for feeding stray cats? What exactly happened? What is meant by "harassing?" Did anything happen? How do we know? Oh...someone put up a "post."

Don't you have questions about it?
IF not, why not? It's a questionable story.
Oh, she's been out of high school for 20 years.

There are your answers.
Where's your link to a reliable source for the "post" about her and her dad harassing a woman, blah blah blah? So someone, somewhere, put up a "post" and you chose to believe it as fact.

Does it make you feel powerful to tear down others anonymously? Or are YOU willing to provide YOUR name and address since you're spreading this crap?
No, of course you're not willing.
Serious question: Are you Korean?
Do people who were never bullied but make up bully-victim stories to take down celebrities also have TRAUMA FOR LIFE?
Will YOU have TRAUMA FOR LIFE when this young actress kills herself and it's partly your fault?
How do you know there WAS a victim at all? Why are you so eager to believe trash news?
Serious question: Are you Korean?
Yes, SUICIDE, not "extreme choice" or "unhappy departure to be a star in the sky."
I can't even with Korean scandal culture anymore.
How long until the next suicide...?
