It's funny. People keep defending "historical accuracy" for "Joseon Exorcist" or "Snowdrop", when they are not even historical dramas trying to depict historical reality (and don't actually know the story of "Snowdrop" too). But the same people will enjoy movies or dramas taking place in Europe, back in the time, with black, asian or any non-European people (for exemple, it could be anywhere else).
If someone starts to express discomfort and criticize the non-historical accuracy, they will be attacked because it's a symbol of diversity and non-discrimination. In that case, they don't care about the people feeling offended seeing their history turned into a crapy mess. But for Koreans dramas suddenly it becomes a matter of respect towards Koreans and their history... Double standards.

It just shows how hypocrite all these people are, because they get "indignant" just when it suits them. And it's shows how powerful few people can become thanks to internet, even if it doesn't reflect the actual mindset of the majority.

I don't even understand how come these people call themselves fans and in the same time ask for the cancelation of a drama they don't know the real storyline and characters developments. That's ridiculous. This "statement" is insane. JTBC don't owe anything to this people.

Well, I personally don't use Google as my dictionary. And, as I wrote, in this case, it's actually an adaptation, not even a pure fiction, so everything people say about fiction or not is not relative in this case.
I'm the first that want historical movies or dramas, anywhere, anytime, to be the most accurate possible as I'm myself an art historian. But this is not an historical drama, about some person or figure of the Democratic mouvement. It is a romance, which take place in a specific historical and political environnement, so distortions are acceptable. It is really not the same for me than a project that aims to officially depict an historical character. And for me, it's the same for any fiction or adaptation. Of course people can disagree and criticize, but claiming to cancel a drama or even aggressively demand explanations, like that so called "fan union" calls themselves, is really wrong in the process of creativity and self expression. I dislike and feel somewhat offended by a lot of things in life, but I don't ask for cancelation, disappearance and shoot hatred about it because I respect others and prefer the dialogue than the oppression and because in the end, everything is culturally richer like that. If this thing keeps going on, it will became a real disaster for all the korean filmographic economy.

It is not Koreans, it is only few Koreans. This controversies, recently, doesn't not represent what Korean society think at all. They just give too much credit to few haters online who love to start petitions over anything.

Oh you're mistaken. Since many years, a few people (it's really a few people compared to the 50 millions of Koreans), petition on internet about everything, all the time. Most of the time it doesn't become a big issue, but sometimes yes, especially with politic issues, and recently it started to become more sensitive with dramas too. Hell Joseon it is.

This is the original episode. It shows how crazy, or bored, some Koreans are. It's sad that few people can get so much power over productions just by spreading hatred on internet.

"It's your culture & history we international fans doesn't have a say in it" First of all, it's the culture and history of way more than this few thousands petitioners/haters online. So, this really doesn't reflect what most of Koreans think. And secondly, Korean dramas are airing in Korea first, but they are clearly aimed to a worldwide audience, so of course, everybody have a word to say when few people try to bring down a production that they know nothing about, just because they can't understand what a fiction is, and have probably too many time to waste.

Korea is a country of 50 millions people, even few hundreds thousands petitioners shouldn't have the right to bring down productions like that, especially korean dramas that are aired in Korea, but clearly aimed for a worlwide audience too.

Well said. But the sad thing is that it's the everyday life of Korea since many years. People use internet to attack everything and everybody all the time. It doesn't escalate to big problems all the time, but when you live in Korea, you really feel that there is something wrong with the way people hate anything through internet and start petitions for every little things that a bunch of people dislike.

You're a typical exemple of someone who doesn't understand what a fiction is. Or even a adaptation on screen.
Following your arguments, do you know how many films or series, all over the world, should disappear ? Well, pretty much all of them because a film, or a series, can never portray perfectly history. It's always adapted and changed.
So no, those few Koreans (yes, this few people don't represent the majority of Koreans so stop pretend this offend all Korea) have no right to ask explanations or cancelations, and it's sad what's happening right now. I hope it will stop soon because otherwise, they can just stop all productions because there will always be people complaining about anything.

First of all, there is a lot, but really a lot, of Korean historical dramas with female main or center character (which is, most of the time, totally not historically accurate). Not that hard to find here...
And also, the point of making an historical drama, is to show, with more or less accuracy, the story of an historical figure or period. And historically, in Korea, women didn't have a center place, they were mostly wives and concubines, so the dramas just try to be historically accurate. They actually give a greater place of women than they actually had, especially in Joseon era.
If you like watching historical dramas you need to accept the reality of this historical period.

Yes exactly, and I really like that about him. People just don't pay attention to what he says and what he want.

No, I don't think so. But I understand that some people can think that way.

Directement sur un site coréen, sans sous-titres. Je comprends suffisamment le coréen pour regarder en vo.

Jang Eui Soo and Kang In Soo together in a drama, and it's a sageuk too. Whoa, I hope it will be good.

(Je viens de voir que tu es Française. ^^ J'espère que ça te plaira autant qu'à moi.)

I think you can because there is a quick reminder of what happened in part 1 at the beginning. And the story is different from what happened in part 1 so I think it's okay. ;)

The latest episode was a little bit absurd, and it was way too short overall, but it was a really nice love story, Chu Young Woo and Won Hyung Hoon were really good. And it's the first Korean drama that I watched showing so much, and in a good way, physical relations between two men.

I actually liked this one even better than the Part 1.

This movie is actually very good, the rating here really don't do justice to it.
Baek Sung Hyun is really good in it. This movie speaks about many important life topics. If you can understand Korean (don't seem to be available with English subtitles) you should watch it.
