life is a drama

So you rather he lie and publish a PR Publicist written statement so that YOU can feel good about fixing his attitude. Whatever he said is probably what he truly feels, even if it doesn't satisfy you it is honest, take honesty over being lied to.

good point, probably because majority audience is women and their main attraction is to see man save girl and man kick ass, she can't really eclipse him in bravery otherwise he is mocked for being a wuss. but I am genuinely surprised how many kick ass moments they gave her character (for non novel readers this is refreshing), so far they have not over diluted her essence, this is a FL show with strong ML support.

You asked a good question, those that are offended have internalized racism/inferiority complex. They themselves have an issue with being/looking SEA, they want to be anyone else they feel has superior genes. This is not the actor's problem, he nowhere said the picture is ugly, those that accuse him are blaming him for their own depraved thoughts. If you are proud of being/looking SEA then you won't be easily triggered like this.

female lead can fight, not the flashy useless hocus hocus magic of xianxia dramas. she has real strength, grit, skills, her worth isn't maxed by making her act like a man

Reminds me of squid game

This drama, these characters/actors deserves a fully developed story that completed their journey. Chemistry was FIREEEEEEEE BEST in a BL I have ever seen. Butttttt the end was incomplete how did they overcome the formidable mafia like father, who was ready to kill them.

Big part is culture. In Korea basically Asia parents are gods, respect, obedience comes first even before love, even if Parents are abusive Asian culture does not give much rights for the child to abandon their parents. Also this is Korea, Taekwondo is their national sport, grand master status regardless of character demands respect. Also he is keeping connection with his love through his father, perhaps foolishly believing if he made his master a better man by being a surrogate son he might become a nicer father to DoHoe, which ultimately might heal the hurt DoHoe's father caused him.

Saw the reviews came in with super high expectations, especially when people saying it is better than My Beautiful Man. I saw the drama I feel confused, forget being great I dont think it is even good, like what did I miss that others saw. Chemistry was there, it does have a strong start but it all fizzles out really fast.

well said, this is omega verse, it is designed to be toxic to fulfill a specific fantasy men/women have. if you are disturbed by it then you are not the target audience, so stop your whining and let those who are enjoying have their fun, and you find something you like.

If we measured our lives based on who gets what we will never be happy. MiJi is not abandoning herself by taking care of others, neither is HoSu a burden because he has a handicap. Mindset can change everything. MiJi finds purpose in being a care taker, it gives her joy to feel needed and empowers her knowing that her presence brings others joy. MiRae is the eternal pessimistic, having a rich husband isn't going to cure her of her problems, her struggle is to make peace with herself. Both sisters have different strengths, life they each will live will suit their own unique needs. MiRae does not want to be MiJi, any more than MiJi wants to be MiRae.

We got lucky with we best love they gave us 2 seasons. That is why I can't watch this drama there is no ending, I would go mad over a cliffhanger ending.

Ironically the press conference was the most honest thing he did. he has set everyone free from hoping he felt any shame.

Korean celebrities need to understand that because of Kentertainment becoming popular internationally they are not just answerable to subcontinent fans they have to understand the pulse of global fans. While coming all decked up looking perfect with gorgeous hair bowing deeply so your nose touches your knees might impress your country fans, it will not impress Disney or Netflix or international brands that are paying you. International audiences don't care much for histrionics, they put more weight on what is being said, and what actions you will take to improve yourself. Unless his PR strategy is to save face in SK he does not care what the world thinks. Losing Prada is nothing compared to your own countrymen sentencing you to death.

This press conference was the worst advice, words said whoever wrote them was insane, if it his own I guess you can give props to his guts to spew such nonsense. I do not know how this is received in SK, but for everywhere else in the world this should be shown in PR schools on how not to do a press conference.

Yes English subtitles have been failing for a long time, not just this drama many others. If you know an alternate language other than korean watching dubbing is superior than watching korean.

Because the underlying problem is Asian culture makes it about mom versus wife. How about right versus wrong, make a man choose that. Her father did not just choose his wife he chose to do the right thing, so he did not abandon his mom.

Her parents taught her what really matters that is knowing your self worth and confidence to make the tough decisions in life. It is those critical values that stopped her from marrying the wrong guy, marrying the right person is the most important of a person's life, it is a make or break decision that can destroy if you choose wrong. The drama/writer has given you an example within their own narrative look at how her ex BF lived and see how she will live. Rest of it is not a deal breaker in life, what is important is to build character, when you have the right character you can learn anything you WANT to learn.

That is clever of the writer to show even though both the boy friend and father actions are similar they are not the same men in character. Her father's actions towards caring for his wife reached the depths of his soul, whereas her boy friend actions had that superficial similarity like recreating something you saw or read someplace else you might be able to repeat it but you cannot sustain it.

He is credited as guest role if his role is more screen time that is a possible hint on who IU ends up with

This is true of any big star, they each have their fanatics who uphold them to god status, do immature stuff to malign other actors out of jealousy or just spite and behave in ways that makes you question if they have any common sense. But that can't be the actor's fault unless he/she encourages/condones such behavior, seems unfair to hate on an actor over the behavior of his crazy fans.

omgggggggg that was him. Cant they be end game pleaseeeeeee
