I understand what you mean also. Summer Strike was ruined with the murder plot. I don't like CCR that much, so the murder plot is a welcome distraction from the experience of having to sit at school lessons lol

I haven't seen Snowdrop but yes. Youth of May also, but I didn't like the chaebol strand in that drama.

Random comment: Orange lipstick doesn't really look good on Bang Min Ah. Pls someone take that away from her. She already wore it all the time in My Absolute Boyfriend and it bothered me all the time although I liked Da Da character.

You'll enjoy it more if you binge watch. Waiting is not easy

interesting, this is 8.7 in imdb. MDL people are more focused on the characters and romance? What's your theory?

If you're interested in history like me, Han Kang's book Human Acts is about this time period. It tells more about the censorship (pointed out in ep 8) and torture and killings by the secret police. Not an easy book but those were brutal times.

I think either Doo Hak or Cheol Woong will die.

Much better to watch it on one go.

Maybe they don't watch it as a historical drama. Don't know but this is not just a romance drama.

The historical background is important to understand. Cruel times.

exactly. wanted to say the same. He's a very charismatic actor, stands out. Just as Tal Tal stood out in Empress Ki.

Actually, I see more and more people freaking out if the woman is younger. For wokeists, Goblin is unwatchable. They call it an age gap drama. It used to be called a fantasy drama. Wokeists are changing our very language. It's not double standards, the direction is programmatic intolerance and cancelling which affects even k-drama reception in ridiculous ways. Like people saying they are not able to watch Goblin, 2521, or even Our Blues because of the age gaps. They see grooming and exploitation of female actresses everywhere. Exploitation will happen more in Hollywood because k-drama is way more centered on feelings than pure sex. I've seen people who say k-drama female actresses are "being groomed" if the male lead is older. But I think that actors and actresses are chosen based on their acting ability. Sometimes that leads to age gaps. It's just that the age gap here in CCR bothers me, without any ideological attitudes or double standards.

I agree with you.

How can you be at ep 17 when it hasn't aired yet.

Well said, completely agree.

Who's that?

You said he is hated and I said I haven't seen any of that.

capitalism couldn't possibly be a reason to cancel anything. People are protesting unfair treatment. A victimless crime is not a crime for most people.

Nobody hates him, actually, at least here in MDL and this has been quite the discussion topic. Pls go ahead and count the number of comments sympathetic vs. hating towards YIA. And I've seen no hate towards him in YouTube either. What people hate is the cancelling. But pls go and verify the real figures.

If this is the case, I don't get how 1/3 of Viki dramas are BL... I'm honestly asking, because I have zero knowledge about the situation.
