What happened?

I just read the end of your reply and genuinely… are you okay?

I need more of her projects :(

Release date doesn’t equal time of filming. Once, Kang Haneul filmed about 3/4 projects month after month and he said they just set the release date differently.

let’s give credits to Yang Sejong too because he is quite strict towards his scripts so he was the one who chose it ❤️

Before Lovely Runner there were such plots already.

You all forgot how Kim Saeron posted a photo of her and Soohyun YEARS BEFORE HER DEATH AND SCANDAL. I was always angry that people didnt start to cancel Soohyun back then. The same photo was released years later again and suddenly people started to talk about it. Kim Saeron posted this much much earlier!!!

I really don’t like dramas about idols and reading the beginning of the synopsis I thought it would be as cliche as the rest of such dramas/productions but actually it’s quite interesting at the end of the synopsis. I might give it a try!

The topic of Roh Jaewon is so sensitive and important to me. I need to share my feelings and thoughts about him and his ,,fans’’ somewhere so I’ll do this here. Western people might not like what I’m about to say.

I always thought people who support their favorite famous person are at least a tiny bit similar as them. So now I can’t understand how Jaewon is such a philosophical and smart man full of inside beauty, full of art, full of emapthy, sensitivity and understanding towards psychology and people. He is open minded and don’t follow the toxic masculinity behaviors and mindset. He hugs with men, he played a homosexual character, he elegantly dances with men, he wishes to play more romantic roles and he doesn’t care if it’s a heterosexual love or homosexual love. His instagram is full of art and sensitivity. He shares photoshoots where he wears makeup and skirts. He said he easily hates people but at the same time he gets along with people so well that everyone likes him. I’ve never met such an artistic and mature man. Especially a man I don’t even know personally. So how did he menaged to pull towards himself such immature and childish people? I’m not a fan of dividing people onto generations because I think it makes no sense but exceptionally this time I can see the pattern. His fandom is filled with typical generation z people with no morals (and I’m saying this as a generation z myself). His fandom is filled with girls who are much younger than him (which is nothing wrong of course but please hear me out till the end) who are perverts and fetishize his soft and artistic personality instead of appreciating him and his uniqueness. Art is my everything and that’s why I fell in love with Korean culture because after seeing many countries’ relationships with art I’ve never seen a country who would value art as much as Koreans. They never play about art and I love to read and listen to words of Korean film script writers and directors. They made me fall for art even more and while acting was just a fantasy to me, thanks to Roh Jaewon I decided to finally go forward towards acting. His art, works and acting inspired me so much that acting isn’t a fantasy to me anymore. It’s a real life goal I want to pursue. I’ve never seen an artist with such a unique acting style. But it seems like Roh Jaewon’s fans don’t care about art. They only care about rom-com dramas, simply entertainment (which also isn’t wrong but it is wrong when you treat him like a dumb infant because of it) and celebrities. Korean society hype up actors and actresses who are acting geniuses and put their all into acting while Westerners make people famous not for art but because of pretty faces and for the idea of being a celebrity who post millions of ads and selfies. And you can see that whenever Koreans bring up legendary actors and actresses who had a great impact on Korean film industry but Westerners don’t even know about their existence. Because they don’t focus on artists but on shallowness. Just notice what dramas are popular in Korea and what dramas are popular in Western world. You will see that Westerners stream shallow stories, repeatable romcoms, boring Netflix ,,productions’’ while Korean art industry prefers deep stories, philosophy, healing-like plots, gentleness and artistic silence. I remember how people hated ,,Dear My Friends’’ for being boring because it focus on elders’ lives while for Koreans this drama is very meaningful. You can notice that in kpop as well. Westerners hype up boy groups who makes loud music with the same dark concept with lack of pop sound. This trend came with the newer boy groups of 4th generation and I remember how Koreans liked only TXT, AB6IX and THE BOYZ because they stayed with melody and vocals. I’m not sure how it is right now because I stopped being a fan of kpop 3/4 years ago but I clearly remember the times when I used to be a fan. And the ongoing hate from Westerners towards ballad songs while in Korea ballads are more popular than kpop. Obviously, not everyone has to have artistic soul but it seems like Westerners don’t have it at all. And I could speak up about it much more but I want to come back to speak up about Roh Jaewon. The young girls repeatedly make fun on Roh Jaewon until they have to sexualize him and his sweetheart-like personality. They preach how weird he is, that he is a typical millennial, he is awkward and a loser. But no. He isn’t a weird millennial. He just came into wrong audience. It’s you who are too young or emotionally immature to understand or at least accept him. His so called fans make fun of his instagram as well meanwhile this is a typical instagram of a Korean artist who feels everything around him deeply. A lot of Korean people with artistic soul keep their instagram this way. Not only famous actors or singers. I’m starting to hate moments when Westerners get into Korean culture because they don’t even try to educate themselves. Recently Roh Jaewon posted a photo of his beautiful painting and he painted a foot on a precious sky background. You could interpret it in so many ways and get to know Roh Jaewon more. Because the best way you can learn about an artist is through his art. Because artists don’t just create. They put their all into their works, they put a deep meanings and their personality and even thoughts into their art. They literally put their SOUL into it. I’m not sure if people even realize how much of perfectionists some artists can be. But I already knew what kind of reaction I could expect. Not because I found that weird but because I know how Westerners treat the topic of feet. I checked his comments and I’ll quote some of them: ,,what is this i’m crine’’, ,,Being silly as usual’’, ,,you are foot fetishist? 😂😂😂😂’’, ,,ok put those away’’, ,,completly optional btw 🫩🥀’’. I’m super mad at those people for him. And so embarassed for people who wrote those comments. This is a mature and sensitive man. A man whom you won’t meet often and yet you bring this embarassing generation z slang into his comments. In historical times nude bodies were normal. More even, artistic. Human’s body was an art in older times that why you can see so many paintings and sculptures of nude people in museums. It was never perverted taboo topic. Because this is how we were born and we are beautiful. But new generations society changed the beauty of art into sexualization. Now it’s so controversial to even simply show a subtle part of your body because people will call you names. Something that used to be an art now is oversexualized. The same with feet. Feet is a normal part of a human anatomy and yet people are disgusted by that more than putting strangers’ genitals into their mouth. I never expected feet become such a controversial topic because even in our Western world feet were just… feet. The same body part as eyes, nose, knees. But for some reason influencers shared their sudden disgust towards feet and because social medias are toxic and focus on negativity, people without their own personalities started to follow those ,,opinions’’ and now feet are controversial. But notice how it’s controversial mostly among generation z younger people. In Korea, they don’t think as poorly as Westerners about feet. It’s nothing controversial, taboo or weird to them. I’m sure if Korean society found out what Westerners think about feet they would be really shocked. Because how can someone make a simple body part be a sign of something weird and uncomfortable? Most of his so called fans know him from Squid Game (which, again, isn’t a bad thing) and I remember how people bullied his fans or other people who found him attractive. Poor Roh Jaewon. I hope he didn’t saw this all because imagine if it was you. Imagine someone finds you attractive and they are bullied for finding you attractive because the whole Western world thinks you’re ugly. If it was me I would ask myself: ,,How ugly am I if other people are bullied because they like me??’’. Being bullied because of ,,being ugly’’ is one thing. But being bullied because they find you attractive is a different form or being a victim of monsters not humans. Suddenly, when T.O.P’s character died in the show, you all gave the attention to Roh Jaewon. You switched up so quickly after forgeting that you made him be a shadow not only of a fictional character but being a shadow of T.O.P overal. Korea truly appreciates him and now he appears in commercials, new dramas, new films, he appears in music videos of music artists. His acting and charisma got through them. Roh Jaewon is deeply artistic, sensitive and misunderstood that I wouldn’t be surprised if he was in Autism spectrum. I’m in autism spectrum myself and if you all treat every autistic person this way then you all are really weird. He deserves a better fandom.

She looks so elegant! ❤️

Damn, you’re speaking like a victim of a cult. Imagine infantilizing a whole grown man. ,,Nunu’s fortune’’ I feel so embarassed for you. Westerners really need to face the reality. Or just kpop fans in general.

Cha Eunwoo’s fans are so easyily impressed… I wonder if you all even know anything about acting at all

,,Nunu’’ his fans are so weird

Negative opinion or constructive critism doesn’t equal hating. Please learn about the words you use because being a hater is a serious accusation. Also, there is nothing wrong with being picky about productions. It’s understandable if the person watches dramas for a long time, see patters and just want to explore more. It can happen indeed. Also being (healthily) picky means knowing what you want and self-awarness is a sign of high intelligence. I’m not trying to be smarty pants but it’s unfair what happens on this app recently.

What happened with MyDramaList users recently? Suddenly everyone is so mean and you can’t even say anything SLIGHTLY negative. Every opinion must be positive for you all… this is not how reviews work.

By your logic I’m homophobic, mysogynystic, transphobic, teenagers hater. Because I don’t care about the gender, age, sexuality, beliefs. If you support someone problematic especially someone who hurt other people then you are also a bad person. The same rule is with men who hang out with other problematic men. I don’t know what happened with chronically online people recently but you should study more what is misogyny. If you don’t want to read my long reply then you are the problem. You are behaving this immature because you know I explained to you everything in logical way and you can’t call me a misogynist.

Very mature of you. But thank you because you proved my point.

I meant worldwide* not international ☺️
