Or you end up in bed with an unbelievably handsome guy who turns out to be rich and powerful and needs you to…
unbelievably handsome, rich and powerful guys are not looking for stench filled drunken girls to have sex. It only exists in dramas. More often than not, these drunk girls would be raped by drug addicts with few STD's.
Expecting realism from a drama, c´mon...Alcoholism in general is highly glamorized in dramas. Maybe there are…
Not expecting realism in dramas or movies. Not even expecting social messaging in dramas or movies
but to twist a potentially catastrophic act into something funny to influence young girls is going too far. The dramas do not need to depict excessive drinking as dangerous. They just need to stop showing it in positive light.
I am not talking about responsible drinking here. not even talking about the FL getting pissed drunk at her own home with her boyfriend or husband, no issues at all. but these dramas put the FL in incredibly dangerous situations and project it as cute and fluffy, which I believe needs to be called out.
If the FL is getting groped by men and is shown as funny and cute, would it be ok? Or do we say, it's a drama, so, repeated molestation of the FL as funny is ok?
We got our token drunk off her bum FL in this drama as well.
Good to see Kdrama writers being consistent in spreading the message - "Young and attractive girls getting drunk and passing out in random places is absolutely safe. There is ZERO danger in being like this. In fact, it is the surest way to meet your prince charming who will be bowled over by your vomit and stench. it's true love you see."
I had the drunk woman trope explained to me once but still don't understand it. Apparently, if a woman can be…
In half of the dramas, these drunk women are the ones molesting the men, especially the ML.
The whole drunk woman trope is perverted & dangerous.
Instead of showing reality and dangerous of excess drinking, these dramas are pretty much encouraging this! Even the parents in these dramas are shown to be ok with this behavior of their daughters.
It is also weird how the ML is rarely shown this way.
Who finds drunk women cute and fluffy now a days? The stench itself would ward off everyone except the most desperate men.
In between some nice story-telling and great acting, you get some horrible cliched dumb fillers.
Another episode where the women are shown drunk off their rockers. Whenever I see this particular cliche, I feel like grabbing the writer/director by their hair and smack their bums.
Why illegal? In Japan you can hire someone to be a boyfriend/girlfriend, there's literally a whole agency for…
Unless it's a scifi, fantasy or action, the drama needs to be little logical. if the core premise of drama is something that has no possibility in real life, it becomes little difficult to enjoy it or understand it.
Why illegal? In Japan you can hire someone to be a boyfriend/girlfriend, there's literally a whole agency for…
Did not know that.
In most countries the ceremony is as good as getting a marriage certificate. In fact in a lot of western countries, you don't even need to be married. If you are living together, for all practical purposes, it's an identified partnership with clearly identified legal ramifications.
Korea is indeed weird that a ceremonial marriage is not a legally identifiable one!

There is nothing like a contract marriage in most countries. have no idea about asian countries though. In western countries, a contract marriage is nothing but a fake marriage. Whether they explicitly benefit or not is irrelevant. Those persons would pretty much end up in jail because implicitly in many countries marriage provides certain benefits.
why not search immigration fraud through marriage? That would pretty much tell you why the concept of contract marriage does not exist in west.
let me point out again that I have no idea how this works in Asia legally. May be there are countries that allow contract marriages.

There is a whole world of difference between fake girlfriend to being a fake wife. In many countries being married comes with a lot of perks, which in turn means a fake marriage can be considered as fraud.
nice breezy drama. the 12 episode format worked well. It meant the drama did not waste time on fillers and concentrated on the main story and main characters.
the main leads did great job, the two friends added lot of fun to the drama.
What a terrible synopsis. I have no idea what this show is about…..
It's about girl who marries a guy and then marries the younger brother of the guy as well. Common Cdrama trope of a girl and bunch of brothers in love with her.
Well, he looks manly. May be that's the problem.Korean and Chinese preference seems to be towards delicate and…
never trust a man with no facial hair....I am sure there is a saying like that somewhere.
but yeah, seeing ML & 2ML in each and every drama, clean shaved, makeup and lipstick etc etc is boring. Where are the rustic men in these dramas? Even after a brutal fight their makeup does not have a smudge.
The drama is simply focusing on the story and the main leads for the most part. Not having 2ML or 2FL greatly helped the story. This is a romcom at it's heart and it needs to be light.
this shows uses the interactions between the main characters are enough to tell a story and have their character grow through the drama. ML and FL grew by just being with each other, things they did together and for each other.

Not sure about Korea but in many countries what the FL is doing might be considered illegal and would be behind bars.

dropped it but do let me know where I am wrong,
Common Cdrama trope of a girl and bunch of brothers in love with her.
but yeah, seeing ML & 2ML in each and every drama, clean shaved, makeup and lipstick etc etc is boring.
Where are the rustic men in these dramas? Even after a brutal fight their makeup does not have a smudge.
To be fair, the movies fare a lot better.
Korean and Chinese preference seems to be towards delicate and girlish looking boys.
Where are the mustached and bearded ML's in asian dramas?
