Because I know your post history, I know this is meant as sarcastic, but rather than humorous, it just comes as as bit mean spirited. I mean A for effort I guess? I feel a little bit more subtlety would be good to get your point, although admittedly weak, across.
Also, because a lot of people disliked NDS and the show, your comment, although a bit extreme, probably will get quite a few people agreeing with it. All in all a backfire IMO. Just an FYI.
Maybe place a /s in the end, so people know your joking?
I feel bad, because half your comment, actually are in line with what most people think, and it actually doesn't sounds ridiculous, even when you've exaggerated it. Just so you know.
It says your from Russia. I've recently discovered Little Big, they are an amazing group! Can you tell me a little bit more info about them?
Hello ma'am. 1) You can't act in a documentary because it's a damn documentary2) the plotline is based on a real…
Then you are a rare breed in this world. And it's a bold statement to make that you never stereotype or make snap judgements.
Because the minute you read an article and form an opinion, you are essentially making a snap judgement, and stereotyping. When you read an article about a woman doing something bad or good, our opinion is already being formed. And often time, when a picture is provided, we mentally start combining elements of stereotypes to form what we think of that person. Is this a good thing? is this a bad thing? It's neither, it's just how human beings mind is developed in this current society. With the advent and integration of social media, mainstream media, and propaganda, the perchance for snap judgement, over reactions, over generalization has never been more pronounced and obvious.
Take for example Jisoo, you can take everyone single article, video, documentary, drama and etc... and make the opinion that Jisoo is a nice person, but you could be far from the truth, because unless you personally know Jisoo, your hypotheses of her being a good person is just that, an opinion, and effectively a snap judgement. But if we take this kind of hypothesis on how human beings should behave, then nobody would talk, because most people don't have first hand information most of the time, most people have 3rd, 4th, and even 5th hand experience. Yet that doesn't stop them from talking about topics of which they have very unreliable information on, because that panders to the social desires of human beings in general.
I never claimed people are like me. Human beings are after all unique, I am coming from a logical perspective on human psychology. To you stereotyping is fiercely negative. For me, although I do admit, stereotyping is something people should do less of, I know this is an impossibility, as every human beings in some shape or form, makes judgement on things they don't know, and subconsciously subscribe to stereotypes that may or may not be accurate. Generalizations, whether for good or bad, has allowed people to be nice to strangers, and for love to blossom between strangers.
For me to criticize is not spreading negative thought. Would you rather this whole comment section talk about how pretty Jisoo is? Or how we should all worship the ground she walks on? Nobody, except God, is above criticism. Even the Pope can be criticized. If you think to criticize someone is spreading negative thought, then I would love to live in your world, where everyone is perfect then. As i've always said, the comment sections exist to provide a platform for people to post their opinions, unless their post are meant to attack other commenters, then that should not be allowed, but any criticism towards the shows, the writers, the actors/actresses, and etc.. should be ok. We are after all, not sheep, who just follow the group think.
No one asks me to give an opinion, I just give it. And if people want to discuss or disagree with my opinion, it is their right, and there is no issues with that.
With your final argument, prior to the show airing, should we all just fill these comment sections with how much of a goddess Jisoo is, or how beautiful she is, or how amazing her personality is? We should just report all those people who dare question Jisoo's acting and beauty then right?
I feel bad for Yoo In Na, a lifetime of almost all secondary or supporting leads. She's pretty though!
I wonder what her salary is?
I've only seen her in secondary roles, I haven't watched her ML ones. But I always found it weird she did not have more ML roles, as I feel she has the stage presence to do so.
She's probably gotten typecasted over the years.
For snowdrop, seeing as her name isn't in the synopsis, I'm guessing her role is not going to be that big. Maybe a villain character of some sort.
I think for the most part, there will always be someone better for any role, because there are tons of great actors/actresses…
I mean, I don't know if it's their mission statement, but almost all the shows that they have shown in 2020 have all appeared on Netflix, which has a big international audience. And even their shows that have poor domestic viewership ratings, have done well internationally, most recently Start Up.
So I wouldn't be surprised if their intention on casting Jisoo, is to further push the popularity of both TVN Dramas, Blackpink, and KDrama in general.
Hello ma'am. 1) You can't act in a documentary because it's a damn documentary2) the plotline is based on a real…
Stereotypes are a part of life unfortunately, and it's unavoidable with the way the world is constructed. You may claim you never do snap judgements, or you never stereotype, but I guarantee that you do, even on a subconscious level.
Oh yeah, who am I to Jisoo? she does now owe me anything. But still, it doesn't mean I can't form an initial opinion of her. Like I said, she can prove me wrong, and I am willing to change my opinion on her. But until then, my opinion on her will probably stand. Unless you can show me other proof where she exhibited stellar acting. Otherwise, let us just wait for Snowdrop to play then go from there.
This message is to all these salty penguins in the feed who are butthurt over Ji Soo getting the FL role:Did you…
I think for the most part, there will always be someone better for any role, because there are tons of great actors/actresses out there, and they can only play so many dramas per year. But that same reason is why actors like KSH is given chances to find breakout roles like in Start Up. But I do believe, the number of actresses who can create the same hype of Jisoo at this time is probably limited. The only drama that would get more hype is if one of BTS members starred in a drama.
I believe the comment section in Snowdrop is precisely the reason Jisoo got casted. Being a TVN drama, the network has always placed a bit of priority towards nabbing an international audience, to increase the Hallyu wave. And Blackpink's star is quite hot internationally right now, so we should see amazing viewership internationally because of the Jisoo casting, which I believe is the reason for her casting. And out of the four blackpink member Jisoo, made the most sense, since she is the one with greatest grasp of the korean language compared to the other three.
I also think it's quite smart to cast a lot of well known actors as main cast. Even, if we assume Jisoo does not do great in her role, there will be enough star power to push the rest of the show upwards. An example of this would be Reply 1988 series, Hyeri may not be the best actress, but as a whole, combined with other stronger actors, her flaws were not as obvious, as the stellar cast elevated the status of that show. I feel this is the intention they have for snowdrop as well.
With so many Main Cast, I wouldn't be surprised if some of these established actors portray stronger stage presence than the main leads. And then the war will begin.
Hello ma'am. 1) You can't act in a documentary because it's a damn documentary2) the plotline is based on a real…
1. I can't speak for Kpop specific documentaries, but documentaries in general do have a script, and storyboarding done, just like a regular show would. In my experience, most of the actresses/actors I deem good actors, have great/amazing personalities off screen.
Now, of course off screen personality and acting prowess are not explicitly correlated, but having a more outgoing personality certainly doesn't hurt in the acting department IMO.
2. Cliche, meaning i've seen the trope done several times. Like I would argue the basic foundation of a show like TKEM is more unique. Reading the plot summary on MDL, it doesn't seem to be very unique to me. Even Skycastle's premise was not unique, but it's execution was done well, and so it felt fresh.
Regarding to a north korean defecting and being hidden by south koreans concept. Sometimes it's done well, sometimes it's done poorly. Welcome to Domangkol actually does a great job of this, and I do suggest you watch it.
4. I will have to disagree, when people meet other people for the first time, or see a celebrity in a 2-3 minute video, they automatically make an immediate judgement on that person. That snap judgement helps you make decisions on how to talk/deal with that other person, or change how you view a certain celebrity. Plus human beings are inherently judgmental.
I don't think everyone bothers to do further research about a particular celebrity, unless he/she is stanning him/her or is a hardcore fan. Otherwise, people like myself, who like Black Pink, but don't Stan them, will not bother watching every single youtube video or read every single article about them. I merely enjoy the music, and watched their Netflix documentary.
But just because I am not a Jisoo expert, doesn't mean I can't give an opinion. I'm not a writer by trade, but am I not allowed to criticize the writer of a show like Start Up?
I see a documentary, and I created an opinion. I can change my opinion based on extra knowledge on Jisoo, or her performance on Snowdrop, but since I haven't seen the drama yet, by opinion stands, until she changes my mind with her acting prowess.
Yes, assumptions are actually an inherent part of human beings, it's something that, no matter how hard you try not to do it, you still end up doing. Almost everyone assumes a hundred things in their daily lives.
Like, for example, there is a stereotype that all Idol are bad actresses, so I am using that stereotype to typecast Jisoo. How can she change my mind? Well, she can act well. Just like certain Idol actors/actress does well, despite the stereotype.
How do you sub on actors? Can you show me?

This song is hella catchy.
Ok, you do you then :)))
Ok, so we absolutely hate NJH and Suzy. Can you tell us who else we hate, so I can pitchfork along with you :)))

There are actors/actresses who won the audition for the role, but when push comes to shove, absolutely does terrible with the role.
Only time will tell I say.
The post here are just foreplay so to speak, LOL!
