This is pretty awesome. The cinematography is breathtaking. The location and the feels it provides always have a big role in the Light On series and for the viewing experience. The order in which they portray the story is unusually well thought out. Although this is a sad story I'm pretty sure there's going to be a redemption in the end (I've watched 7 eps). I love to see Du Xiang Dong courageously pedalling on his bicycle for hours on the misty mountain roads. Shi Peng Yuan is in a main role a second time together with Qin Hao after the Bad Kids, they're both so good in this too.
It's just pointless. We live in an era of new Victorian morality, or rather reverse Victorian morality. Where…
Eastern Europe, exactly. In my country there was a strong pro-communist stalinist pro-revolution movement in the universities pre-1980s. That's why old people see the current wokeist movement in universities as merely a continuation of the excesses of crazy ideological dogmatism of that era. Somehow that strikes me as somewhat true. The moral ideas are different but "the end justifies the means" and "ideals above everything" and only-one-truth-is-allowed attitude is the same. New victorians also feel that they are and justifiable have to be in control just bc of representing a new generation. Progressive regressives :)
Very funny that you were reported for this very logical and common sense comment. The report that user made is…
I'd be ashamed personally if I had that many profiles as that user and had to be constantly changing my username to stay in good books with the moderators!
It's a big relief that MDL is slowly returning to a drama commenting and discussion site. Having political campaigns is suitable for X. People here could maybe pause and think about what different platforms are for. Wrecking and criticizing celebrities and applauding the voices of the most vitriolic k-netizens is the bread and butter of platforms like Koreaboo and AllKpop. But there's been a bigger mix-up in that newcomers think this site is similar to them.
I've always protested very loudly against publishing celebrity news in MDL. We don't need to know anything about actors private lives. It's none of our business. That's how agencies always respond to dating rumours: "That concerns the actor's private life, no comments". The public has no right for invasion of actors' privacy.
If the focus on dramas is lost, the whole point of this site is lost. Unfortunately the staff writers are of the gossip hungry type. For this they've gotten so many verbal beatings in the comments that by now they're starting to get a little more restrained in this aspect. If the message is slowly getting through to even them there could in future be a shift in SK's treatment of actors. No one can bear the burden to be a role model solely based on doing what they're talented at. SK must provide more freedom for actors to live normal lives. Like one actress said, every scandal means that the next victim could be you.
Scandals and rumours and a bullet proof money making machine for cyberwrecker YouTubers and Dispatch type of gossip rags. Make no mistake: Garosero and Jinho both are making millions out of this mess. People are being led in a leash by notoriously unreliable sources, and then believe what they think is fact-based.
Even so called reputable newspapers just repeat this stuff bc it brings clicks. Then when suicides happen they are suddenly all remorseful and it was somebody else's fault not theirs.
But you can't maintain a celebrity gossip site within a site that was meant to be a user-contributed drama database and a platform for drama discussion and rating. When I personally arrived here the majority of users were long-term drama fans. Being a drama fan doesn't mean forming a fandom for a specific drama and fighting off all opinions that we are not satisfied with.
So the people here are actually not divided into KSH fans and KSR fans but those who cannot stand bullying and those who bully. The very same people who bullied KSR are bullying KSH. People don't change. Bullies will always be bullies. Personally I've blocked all of them bc I don't want to see it. But I'm grateful that MDL is showing what is acceptable behavior in this site and what is not. People are stuck on the mindset that we must take sides on this particular scandal. So they can't even understand that platforms have community norms and that without moderators things get out of hand, as happened on this page.
I wish we could all quit feeding on the negativity. We'll never know the truth bc everyone has their own story to tell and their own truth. As in dramas that show both his and her side of the story.
If you hold a grudge the grudge holds you. If you want to diminish other users just know you are diminished yourself. Let's just all try and get along and return to watching dramas instead of searching everywhere for things to get angry about.
Tried to post a review but there's a glitch. Review below.
"The dark side of human nature. Everyone has it."
As the quote reveals, this is on the darker side or noir crime dramas. There's a closed room murder mystery with only 3 possible suspects. Police officer Chen who has kept himself busy guarding sheep from sandstorms and robbers is called in to reinvestigate, as not everything seems right with the previous investigation. This sets off a chain of events which ends with the same murder scenario repeating itself.
Chen Jiang He is delightfully temperamental but also a broken humbled man, due to an accident involving his senior police officer. He believes that patiently finding out about the lives and motives of the people surrounding the murder mystery will eventually lead to a breakthrough. We gradually get to know the families of the 3 suspects and their histories. One thing I particularly liked about the drama is how there were no boring psycho killers. The sad incidents resulted from partly accidents, partly deceptions and selfishness.
The plot tightens toward the end, and the last 3 episodes are particularly heartbreaking.
The mountaineous half-desert location is very beautiful and also very harsh. We see and almost feel the dust and sand in the air. Watching Sandstorm felt like being there. Highly recommended for friends of c-noir.
These post should 'ALL' be taken down cyber bullying is a crime. You either love or hate him. Debate in a good…
Yes indeed it should be taken down. Hopefully it will happen soon. Too many comments that violate basic rules (racism, ageism, sexual language, death wishes, etc) to even bother to report. There are no moderators.
