I raised my rating because of the ending, which reframes my character criticisms into endearing quirks. This was fun!

This begs the question: What is different between a 11B krw lawsuit and a 12B one, legally in SK?

If more people knew what they were getting into (the pervasive toxicity), fewer who would choose to enter.

It's hard to disagree with your logic. But love is mysterious. And romcoms deserve happy endings.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but it is my understanding that this new harassment lawsuit is both intended as leverage to get the defendants to cease and desist and also to garner sympathy for the actor. What many people may not understand is Garosero can be posting truthful information but still lose the lawsuit because the mere act of continuously posting criticism is what is at issue here.

I think it's time for Garosero to abandon the drip drip drip strategy (which has been an excellent strategy thus far) and finally reveal their full hand of still-hidden cards.

In my personal experience of violation & heartbreak I was forced to confront my true feelings and because I sincerely loved my partner, it was easy to forgive that person while still making a distinction that the behavior was intolerable.

So while I ended my relationship, I'm not certain that needs to happen here. Because the ML's behavior is not likely to be repeated. I can trust he has learned his lesson. So I say to the FL, forgive him.

It did some potato-focused parts very well, just not so much as you or I would have liked. I don't disagree.

It makes sense: "Leading actors often refuse to sign contracts with excessive penalty terms."

To your point about blaming KSH for KSR's death, some people see the age gap and her tender age as having a huge impact on the bond which formed between them which was so much more real for her than it was for him. This perspective suggests she was groomed for dependency.

What is never discussed is the breakup, which obviously had a huge impact on her. Everything she did after that—including her self-harm & marriage—can be viewed in the context of her twisting in the wind after having her expectations mismanaged, her hopes dashed, and finally herself cast adrift.

Men's Hairy Ass Monthly still wants an exclusive interview with him, to be published accompanying a tasteful pictorial.

Delulu ajumma brings great shame to her ancestors. I am contact-embarrassed just reading this. Good for Gossip queen. Gossip queen good for world.

He will claim credit for this as if he has done a good deed.

Aww. I have an anti-fan.

This is a teachable moment. And a cautionary tale. Maybe we can learn to pity a little bit—rather than just hate entirely—the fool who shed his loyal girlfriend & his humanity to become a star.

For the past couple of days, I've been tempted to make a joke about how God doesn't visit Kim Soo Hyun, anymore. But here you are! (I hope you've been well. 😘)

GM is KSH's agency. But both KSH and KSR were co-founders. Today, KSH remains a part-owner, and the GM CEO is KSH's half-brother (who is also involved in their other scandal about the Kpop idol/actress who committed suicide after co-starring with KSH in the film Real (2017), which the CEO produced and directed (after the original director left. Check out his recent comments on this scandal!)

Anyway, part of the grooming evidence revolves around KSH luring KSR away from her then-agency to GM. And her deal included an apartment (the one where KSH's naked ass photo was taken). So KSH lured KSR away from her entire support system. She lost her manager and staff from her old agency (who cared about her) and she became somewhat estranged from her family (moving into her own apartment at a young age). People suspect KSH did this to A) keep others from finding out too much, and B) Keeping KSR entirely dependent upon him and his cronies at GM. GM wasn't getting her many roles and no good ones (just a few commercials). So KSR helped out doing office work. But she was unpaid and received no equity in the agency she helped create.

This also plays into KSR's distress after KSH broke up with her and GM declined to renew her contract. (And KSR did move to a new agency after this, but not her original one.)

L'innocence est l'affaire des tribunaux. La culpabilité est l'affaire de l'opinion publique, et c'est le cas ici.

Les personnes compatissantes dont le cœur saigne d’empathie pour une actrice en difficulté, poussée à un point de désespoir où elle a senti que le suicide était sa meilleure ou sa seule option, peuvent fournir un service bien nécessaire à d’autres qui comprennent peu les circonstances entourant les événements qui ont conduit à ce scandale actuel.

Lee Soo Hyun ne peut s'en prendre qu'à lui-même pour sa situation actuelle. S'il avait avoué la vérité sur sa relation secrète il y a quelques semaines – et présenté ses excuses à sa famille – au lieu de publier à plusieurs reprises des déclarations contenant des aveux de mensonges antérieurs, il aurait pu éviter une grande partie de ce à quoi il est confronté aujourd'hui.

Kim Sae Ron en est arrivée à un point où elle a cru qu'un choix fatal était sa seule, voire sa meilleure option. Elle était finalement sa propre victime et son propre bourreau. Mais les victimes apprennent souvent à devenir bourreaux pour tenter de faire face à une situation impossible.

Il n'est pas déraisonnable de spéculer sur les raisons qui ont contribué à son désespoir. Les calomnies et le harcèlement de Lee Jin Ho en font évidemment partie. Studio Gold Medalist en est une autre. Tout comme Kim Soo Hyun lui-même.

Les circonstances sont aussi alambiquées et extraordinaires qu'un « Makjang K-Drama », mais, à mon avis, la défenestration actuelle de l'acteur n'est la faute de personne d'autre que de lui-même.
