OK, but why not? Both are human beings that need to be respected. Period.

in abusive relationships the abusers say that didn't mean to hit the partner too and can show remorse too, so it's not a good justification to me personally. Also I think her character is more sorry for the fact they couldn't see each other, than for her behaviour.

Sure, the context does matter. It's not a justification tho. Even in case of self-defense the response should be adeguate to the provoking action, right?

Would you say it's not abuse to a women who's being hit by her bf in front of others? At the beginning it looked like the villagers were defending him, but at the end of the episode they showed they were actually joking and using it as a way to separate them. Even worse, the lady from the Chinese restaurant hit him too, saying "Why are you so weak?".

Some said it's a matter of how strong you are. So a child can hit her mother and make her bleed as a comic scene now?

It depends on your sensibility and pov I guess. Some say catcalling isn't harassment, others get fired for doing it to a colleague. It's a bit "funny" tho how we demand to be respected physically and verbally, but at the same time (some) laugh at a sis hitting a man in public.

I hope so too! The topic of metal health is a big deal, they need to give it time.

She made him bleed, so... Yes, she is slightly less strong than him (the actress is not a little girl and her character studied martial arts), but that doesn't mean he should endure her being violente in silence. He can stop her. The fact that he is a man suddenly makes the scene "comedy" for some reason. The double standard is real.

It's not normalized, but more, used as something funny. Abusing your boyfriend OR girlfriend shouldn't be funny.

Nobody said the scene should be censored, they just had to make it more clear that abuse is not ok, regardless of the gender, otherwise it passes a dangerous message.

Yeah. This drama would have been on its way to cancellation. But the society still uses double standards, unfortunately.

A romcom that thinks beating someone is funny...

It's dark comedy I guess. There are people who laugh about slavery, Shoah and abuse. I'm not one of them and I was disgusted by the scenes. I'm not trigghered by watching violent scenes at all. They happen in crime and thrillers all the time. It's the message that disgusts me. It should be condoned, not laughed at.

I'm not eurocentric. Violence is an international language and is linked to the human nature, more than to the cultures.

I hate the fact that she hits him too. How is that different from domestic violence? Why do you have to use it aganst someone who loves and trust you? That's sick.

WTH is wrong with her? Why does she have to hit him? Imagine if the roles were inverted! We want equality right? I'm kinda disgusted....

Please, feel free to add new titles if you know any. I'll gladly check them out!

Bold of you to assume there is a killer in the first place. It's more complicated than it seems. It's not a usual crime drama for sure!

I don't get it either
