Hi Enigma05! I commented here about this photo because I got into some discussion about this chair. As I commented, that I find that chair disturbing I got only dismissing answers. After the last one I did some research and want to share my answer right here under this picture. Sorry for your good intention to post this picture but ...I want to.
In episode 2 there's an interrogation scene with a woman who is forced to remain seated on a special cage chair…
Thank you for your comment! It motivated me to do some research. The thought I harbor when dealing with others is that I can't be sure I'll never fall into the hands of the police, even as an innocent person. There, I shouldn't be subjected to torture or blackmail to achieve a result that pleases the interrogator. Maybe it is because I worked with elderly people, that I know how not being able to move causes very severe pain in a short time. I still hope everybody is able to understand torture when listening to people who experienced it. Here's a link to a site of Humans Right Watch, and the chair is called "Tiger Chair". It is a very large report and I recommend to you using F3 and adding "Tiger chair" so you can go to the parts were the people who endured such a treatment describe their experience. https://www.hrw.org/report/2015/05/13/tiger-chairs-and-cell-bosses/police-torture-criminal-suspects-china
After a few episodes, I'm not sure how much I can recommend the series. The protagonist and the story are interesting. His benefactor, who left him a lot of money and trained him for his revenge, his "sister" who slips into different roles and is a good fighter, a friend from the past, and another woman who joins the group are all mysterious. While he takes revenge on the individual perpetrators, the son of a murdered family, who resurfaced unrecognized many years later, searches for further clues to uncover the machinations behind the conspiracy. So it remains entertaining to see what he might discover next. However, the moments where the revenge is made obvious to the individual perpetrators are too long and too theatrical for my taste. I know a little bit more already but I wanted to keep my description spoiler free. ;-)
I just started to watch Unnatural Fire and the drama is of good quality so far. But there is something disturbing…
In episode 2 there's an interrogation scene with a woman who is forced to remain seated on a special cage chair during interrogation. Her lower body is surrounded by bars, while her hands are handcuffed to a narrow table attached to the chair. I've never seen a chair like this in a drama before, and I find it very disturbing. It reminds me more of an instrument of torture. Has anyone ever seen this before? Is it common for interrogations in any country? Does no one else find it disturbing?
Streets are saying the uncle will stay until 27th ep goodness I barely survived this episode what more the next…
I feel with you! I stopped watching the recent episodes 😭 and check carefully the comments here to decide when to join again. I have to see them overcome the creepy uncle first to watch the creepy episodes.
Hi, I'm 6 episodes in and it's good. The FL is a clever one and well portrayed by Chen Si Che. There is also a battle of wits between her and the crown prince that's sometimes funny and sometimes interesting. If you like shorter dramas and don't mind already well worn plots,try it!
Actually in China it's very common to wear the same outfit multiple days in a row. I haven't lived there since…
Very funny discussion here. If you do physical work every day, you have to change afterwards. But I know that there are some jobs that don't involve physical exertion, where employees are expected to change into new clothes every day. For hygiene reasons, however, this is often not necessary. Deodorizing clothes is also unnecessary. You can read on the Internet that you don't have to wash clothes after wearing them for a day. Airing them out is perfectly fine. Your nose will tell you whether the result is good. With some cheap synthetic materials, this is of course sometimes a problem. And there are also very good arguments against changing all your clothes every day. For example, the climate. The energy, water and detergent consumption differs drastically depending on washing habits. And I agree with zamperx with understanding to expect it of actors in a drama as it is common.
