if one knows if they show their face in public the media will harass them so they decide to not attend, is it truly a choice? either way, i didn't comment on this choice specifically, but on the fact that out of multiple abusers in the cast the director was ONLY asked about him and had to defend him bc he smoked some weed. my point stands

yup!

yup i really enjoyed how although it was marriage propaganda they did so through the lens of being fit for marriage, and how you need to treat others... i'm sad they didn't expand more on her backstory of being a matchmaker! it got dark but was a very interesting take. i really wish they continued with more episodic couples as well. they really delivered nice messages! even though i didn't love how they handled the incel storyline, i was pleasantly surprised that they even tried to tackle it seeing skr's views on feminism

it's really unfortunate but i get it's a business... a shame stories have to suffer though.

multiple abusers in that cast yet he's the one being publicly shunned and the one whose casting needed to be defended by the director... INSANE

personally i think this was mapped out to be a regular 16ep drama and then they had to cut it for budget reasons, bc the pacing was lovely for the first half of the show. then everything started to kind of shift, it lost focus and cramped a lot of things in the last episodes, making it rushed. i really enjoyed the leads, and found them to be very cute and refreshing so it made the show for me and i did love it. aside from being obvious marriage propaganda, i do think it had some objectively good messages about relationships and marriage and i found some bits very realistic. i did love that we saw a couple that became friends first then developed feelings, and that it was more focused on them individually i guess? i think this is a hidden gem that probably would have benefitted more had it been on a higher budget platform

why are you leading a completely separate conversation? and this wasn't dating or private life, this was DRUNK DRIVING that caused an ACCIDENT. like yes you can say she repented but you can't say that it's NOT A BIG DEAL. that was my main point. you know millions die bc of drunk driving every year right? i hope you don't find it as trivial as these comments (that you, tana and bliss write) keep implying. it's possible to both root for her, not condone harassment AND openly say this was a SERIOUS mistake that people get to hold against her in a respectable way.

you now turned this into a completely different conversation... my point was just to say the situation wasn't as trivial as you presented it and you can't just put it together with dating rumors or people being trolls online. she did something illegal and could have harmed a lot of people. whether or not people want to financially support someone after that is their choice. i never condoned harassment or whatever you keep implying, i'm just saying you portrayed her situation like it was nothing, something trivial, which you and other commenters really minimized it into. i wanted to add context and point out it was quite serious and if she weren't so lucky someone could have died.

they are, but this one should actually be taken seriously not brushed aside just bc they go a bit crazy about who someone's dating. i'm sure we can agree drunk driving, causing an accident and causing a neighbourhood blackout is serious yes? like this isn't a rumor, she ended up in court.

i'm glad she apparently realised her error, made amends and is returning to work however i was just pointing out that this isn't something silly to be brushed aside bc your comment was really reckless.

dating someone and drunk driving + causing an accident aren't on the same level at all... drunk driving takes lives so yes it should take away a career. esp in a country like skr where you can always get a cab or a driver very easily, also excellent public transport. drunk driving is a moral failing 100% and one gets judged for it.

and where did i say they shouldn't? i just said it was a lot more serious than people here painted it to be. she's obviously making a comeback and if the movie goes well she'll be fine. she's only 24 and has her whole life ahead of her. but people have a right to hold this against her as someone could have died and many were inadvertently harmed. i just wanted to emphasize this because it's not like other smaller issues knetz go insane over like having a gf, weight, not smiling enough, etc. it was very serious.

look up the details of the event. she didn't just speed or was randomly caught. she literally caused an accident and made part of the neighbourhood lose electricity for almost four hours. she caused many people to lose on sales, and a lot of people in the neighbourhood sued her for damages. she seriously messed up and had to pay numerous fines and also pay for damages for ALL those people.

bc when it was aired on tv, there was a limit on how many ads you could run during an episode. to bypass that, they'd separate a 1hr episode into 2 30min ones, so they could run more ads. depending on where you watch the show you'll have it either as a 1hr ep or as 30min eps

the world isn't black and white and i say SOME. i think everyone in the world is fighting their own battles and life is nuanced. idk how much you know of the original, but haejun's mother didn't WANT to leave him, she loved and adored him but circumstances caused the separation and now she's just ashamed to be back in her son's life. i think losing a child, dealing with grief, needing to make the tough decision of leaving your son to secure him a better life etc are all things to sympathize with. you can then go make judgements on their actions, and choose who is or isn't redeemable (to me haejun's mother is but sanha's isn't). i think i was very clear you dont have to be so combative just bc you dont choose to approach the story the same as me

personally i found it refreshing to see a drama where women get to be negative yet layered. i'm not the biggest fan of redeeming bio parents in stories with adoption themes but nonetheless i think that while dramas have bad parents all around it was new to see a drama that had the men be emotional and the caregivers and stepping into the largely feminine role while the women got to be selfish and flawed while ultimately deserving of some sympathy

was just coming on to write that i don't think all the bio parent storylines translate that well in only 16 episodes... they should have cut stuff. but yes other than that it's really good!

FINALLY!

it's so creepy that you wrote both the comments not finding that extremely fckn weird. the death penalty is legal in some countries that doesn't make it right. adults shouldn't prey on minors as minors cannot consent.

...that's not a flex that's statutory r*pe... when i was 21 i couldn't dream of having anything in common with someone in highschool

i also just noticed!!! thinking about it i do feel like most stuff has been resolved, and they have amped everything up to one last resolution however i'm sad bc i wish we had 16eps!

they explain she was not living at home then, it was after her father died and she went to college. maybe she heard his name (ji uk) but there'd be no reason for her to connect the two. maybe i'm wrong but i also thought he only realized who she was when he saw he mother at the wedding? but even if he knew right away, they did hate each other, i don't think she left a good impression esp if he was comparing her to her mother. later, when he liked her and could have told her, he already knew of how complicated her relationship was with her mother esp bc she was fostering kids. imo yeah it's kinda far-fetched but no more than most other dramas
