the whole cheating discourse cheapens the drama imo. the whole theme of it was when does a person truly die and when do feelings die? when do you let go, how do you move on? i think the takes that this is glorifying cheating or whatever are way too harsh as the characters are never presented to be in the right. when miki confronts saeko, saeko is honest and direct about being selfish and seeking what is left of yusuke, etc... it's good to see complicated, flawed characters especially when we see other characters manage to empathize with them and we as audiences do as well. ultimately miki understands saeko, even on that train stop. she knows she'd be doing the same as saeko. is the series perfect, no, but i think it's quite human. grief is a complicated beast, this is just how one person handled their situation. i think the audience is being harsh in their judgement.

lmao it doesn't happen like that as fiction often embellishes but "dating with the idea of marriage" or "dating with marriage in mind" is a big thing in asia, imo it can't be put in the same basket as regular dating.

this is a very normal type of statement often published by companies who start legal actions, it's a standard thing and is often followed up with updates of how cases have been handled. i do think the fact that they publicly say they're suing deters a lot of trolls

love the actress so i'm giving jang kiyong another shot. don't let me down

saying "i hope she gets a lead role some day" is one thing. saying "she should have been the lead" is another and you said the 2nd thing. because whether it's convenient for you or not the lead actress was cast and exists. you saying "i wish it was x instead" does immediately mean you wish it wasn't her. simple. it's disrespectful and it does have internalized misogyny to be dismissive and ignorant of a woman you don't like. misogyny isn't simply hating on women, it's internalized biases, it's taking other women down, dismissing other women for a favorable woman, etc. not even a "...but congrats to this actress" at the end of your post. it just read badly. imagine how you would feel as her fan when she gets cast as a lead if you'd seen someone say "i wish it was another actress". wouldn't be nice, would it?

he can handle the attention quite well, he didn't say never approach me, never talk to me. he said it's weird to find out where i live, wait for me outside my door etc. like everyone can be a victim of stalkers it's just enhanced with a public job and he gets to set a boundary FOR. STALKERS.

but jackie chan still very much sues his stalkers lmao like he probably has a million restraining orders and blacklists you just don't know about. also all these actors you'll claim are handling celebrity well are all from a different age. i think in the age of social media and monitoring state, i think it's fair to set boundaries publicly by saying you don't condone people stalking you. there's no actor rulebook that says you have to put up with stalkers. and it's STALKERS. not fans. a fan will always be decent and no actor or singer who isn't a stuck up pos will treat a respectful fan terribly. you're confusing the two.

if this is just fan behaviour how do you explain people irl who do normal 9-5 jobs and end up with stalkers?

i mean so far the synopsis just implies that he'll remind her of her first love... but yeah i hope she figures it out soon or something. like i said i'm just nervous

you can hope for her to have a lead role in the future without being disrespectful to others in the cast... a bit misogynistic of you

excited for this bc i love the leads just hesitant about how they'll play off the romance. sure, WE know he's an adult but she doesn't... idk we'll see!

he never bashed the fans lmao he just said it's insane to follow him HOME and harass him. if your idea of being a fan excuses harassment then you're the problem. hit dogs will holler i guess

you're seriously excusing stalker behavior just bc he's famous? like yes he has every reason to worry. fans literally almost poisoned idols before in korea, when actors and idols do lives they're often interrupted by their phones going off mercilessly and it's stalkers who got their phone number. put yourself in their shoes and imagine if this was happening to you or your friends. why is this man less deserving of his privacy? bc he acts? he even says he doesn't care about hotels but there's a distinction between work and private life yes even for someone with a public job! you're being very cruel and inhumane. "even successful actors don't behave this way" the actors you name literally had public stalkers and took them to court/got restraining orders.

imo nothing she's done has been "crazy" but i guess you're entitled to your interpretation. personally, i've seen many dramas, shows, movies, read many books and men do get away with more and are seen as endearing though do much worse than FL. but again, you're entitled to your opinions even if i find them short-sighted

or maybe it's just internalized misogyny that allows men to get away with more and be forgiven with the bare minimum? the ML in question "turn around" with a tragic backstory and suddenly being kind to the FL i don't really think they do that much groveling lmao yet you want women to what? go around like an AA member on step 9?

i think it's just a metaphor for her other-ness

same! i very much dislike fatsuits used in any capacity and the whole weight loss gimmick bothers me (shows treat it so cheaply) but a saving grace of this is that so far it hasn't really been ridiculed or played for laughs and also that she's genuinely loved him all this time.

i've given you multiple sources lmao sorry this site WON'T LET ME link!!!!! but it really is an easy google away, just type in the scandals behind the squid game cast or something like that, many people have also posted twitter threads with sources just type squid game assault or whatever, you're not five years old i believe in you you can research properly! saying you haven't found anything is lies. so you're either lazy or a liar? and none of my accusations are vague i just don't remember useless (to me) names of abusive men i don't care about.

these people were literally charged, have criminal records. i'm not pulling things out of my ass lmao

"especially celebrities"? why are they more important than us lmao? i've never lied on anyone all this info is online. i don't consider myself superior to anyone, i just said facts. i repeat you're the only one here being nasty to me.

1) Lee Jung Jae told Hong Suk Chun to stop mentioning him as his ideal type because he was disgusted
2) Vogue Korea interview (2013) he said this about his late friend woo jong wan who was gay and had committed s*icide: "recently, Y went to heaven. before he died, i said to y "you should stop being gay. haven't you been that way enough?" -- he was not out at the time and he literally k!lled himself bc of homophobia. HIS FRIEND TOLD HIM HE SHOULD D!E

all you had to google was lee jung jae homophobic lmao

what a reach to call me a s*icide enabler just because you want to defend abusive men (also funny you'd call me that when the lead of this show you defend actually DID tell his friend he should d!e bc he was gay and the man later k!lled himself... so .... where is your integrity? he confirmed this in an interview btw!). i'm telling you rn way more people k!lled themselves over abuse they have suffered from men that went uncharged and unprosecuted yet you'd never admit that. i've never called anyone a single name nor said they should d!e, i have also never spoken rudely to you. i just said what those men admitted to doing, in writing. maybe look in a mirror idk

cast members of squid game obviously
