I know your obsessed with me~ xoxo gossip girl 😘

" I feel zero obligation or urge to respond to them." And yet here we are....

If you feel the urge to comment and make assumptions of how people are reacting to your rage bait replies then I can't help you. It's a mental issue you need to fix yourself. You can do it, I believe in you!

They're mixing cultures and religions which is already ignorant and rude; having no respect for the people of those groups for starters, but even worse is using stereotypes that are mocking those cultures. See comments above and below.

Also, it's not even the first time, and we're in the 21st century; there's no way for anyone with a brain to skip researching cultures, religions, and even scandals in this day and age before making something like this, so it's obviously done with intent or an apathetic mentality towards people outside their culture. Korean media has such an apparent history mocking East Asia and Middle East, it's not even something you can glide over if you're watching kdramas or listening to kpop.

There are so many incidents in Korean media in just the recent decades and not something new that they can be ignorant about. It's usually done as a publicity stunt (i.e., all news is good news) to get talks of a drama and get viewers. It's a low life move that viewers should use to cancel and blacklist production companies even. If production companies are boycotted or producers or even actors for reading a script and allowing it to occur, then maybe they'll finally take it seriously and realize that it's not funny to make up assumptions and stupid jokes about someone's culture or religion. I rarely watch Kdramas or get involved in kpop now because of the blunt discrimination and their non-chalant view and reaction to offending people. It's so routine in their industry, like they need to make a racist scandal every now and then to breathe.

If it could've been any random ad, then maybe they should have chosen one that doesn't involve mockery of a culture outside their own. Korea knows they keep causing issues with South Asian and Middle East cultures in their media, but then go ahead and find some really outdated ignorant commercial to add into this 21st century drama? Yeah, cause all the other ads vanished when they were making this drama, right?

Just in 2016, their was an issue with Korea and its idols singing a song that mentions stereotypes of Indians and curry, and the original artists even apologized and acknowledged their ignorance of the culture and thus rudeness of lyrics. Saying 'it's just a random ad' to bypass the ignorance of the past is super low and irresponsible. That's like finding an ad that used hitler/nazi symbolism/imagery and recreating it for humour purposes. Lets see how the world likes that, and just say "it was a random ad." Or recreate an ad that uses indigenous stereotypes, African stereotypes, and East Asian stereotypes, bet the world would take that lightly too, huh?

Do you know how the internet works? Are we not supposed to believe any representation on the internet? Because any opinion can be called "attention seeking" then. We can say the same about you and other racists in the comment section as being the loud attention seekers instead.

I don't know why you think it's a "few....loud" internet people when there's been a large global outcry against this sort of ignorance over and over again. It's not a one time thing by a small group, it's a repetitive demand from people of that region and others globally as well.

"majority of the people with this religion": this ad isn't even depicting a religion, so you're already jumping to assumptions.

"unfortunately, those with the most power within this culture shows it almost every day by incite someone to stab, shoot or bomb others because "of their disbelieve" --> Like who? How many powerful people of this culture (whatever culture you're assuming and talking about) in relation to the global population are doing that? How many people are actually following it if it's as you say? Have you thought about the powerful people in your country or globally that incite violence and even go as far as to create war and genocides based completely on their own ideas and goals; not even a religion or culture? Also, just because you're saying WORDS that you won't harm another doesn't mean someone else from your culture won't do the same. Am I to assume the entire culture is working in the same manner of the violent man then?

you said you had "nothing to add" in your last comment, and yet here we are...

YOUR COMMENT: "unlike you, I don't feel the need to make assumptions about you or your background or belittle you just because we disagree. I respect your opinion "

Dude, you literally ARE belittling people because they disagree. Your last sentence of your first comment was "Their vision of the world, (...) is so narrow and negative. Poor souls."

Is that supposed to be a compliment, cause it's definitely not a neutral stance to claim someone's vision to be negative and then call them a poor soul.

WARNING: Ya'll, the comment section is filled with bigots and people of low IQ who can't even differentiate b/w countries, let alone have an EQ high enough to understand why it isn't okay to mock others LMFAO.

literally NO ONE in SEAsia wears that or dances like that. I don't think you even know what countries belong to that region. Arab, Indian, and Persian cultures that are being mixed and mocked here don't belong to the SE of Asia, they're SA or Middle East. So there's that ignorance of your American brain for starters.
And, even if that was a typo or mistake, you saying "Many SE Asians DO wear such clothing and dance that way." is like saying "Cotton Eyed Joe" is what North American DOES music sounds like; North Americans ARE red necks and DO practice incest to keep their bloodline "pure;" saying the N word IS just a greeting or casual slang in North America; and Americans ARE cowboys. Bfr... -_-

You're also implying that it's okay to make a "joke" of a culture or race of people if the joke is "factual" and thus the ad is okay, but even then your argument doesn't work since nothing about this commercial has even an ounce of "fact." And if it really is okay to make a joke on facts, then I guess it's fine to mock the stats of cancer rates in America since it's FACT, and it's fine to mock and make a "light joke" about the rates of violence against women in America too, right? We just need to "lighten up."

You finding something cute and silly doesn't mean it is cute and silly. That's just your perspective; and that too on something that you can't have any opinion on given your 100% American status with no cultural/environmental ties to the groups attempting to be depicted. For example, you said the clip "doesn't deal with anything so serious as small eyes." This goes to show that you think mocking a culture of a people isn't as severe as some superficial features. As if a culture and race of a person isn't much, let alone equal, in comparison to their physical features.

Also, this isn't the first time Korea's done something ignorant over cultures; particularly towards SA and Middle East. They say, "we're sorry we were ignorant" and then they do it again in the exact same way. There are countless example in just the recent decade where Korea has created absurd images of Indians and Arabs through dramas, ads, and even songs. It's equivalent to Americans making all their Indian character have a thick accent, eat "curry," and drive a taxi, and then say "but that's what Indians ARE like." SMH, what century do you live in that you got such a racist and outdated mentality??

Just an add on, you said "Do other Asians feel that Koreans have smaller eyes than they do, on average?" But no one mentioned "other Asians" , the comments mentioned an example of people (in general) mocking small eyes of Koreans. Are you just assuming everything from country locations and their cultures to who's making mockery of who?

But, granted, you ARE the stereotypical American person the world talks about, so I guess that's why you think like this. --> You know, the Americans that "ARE racist," and "ARE illiterate and ignorant of the world outside of their little bubble," and feel that they "DO have the right to speak on behalf of others' cultures and dictate whether or not others can be offended by people making a "joke" about them."

this drama listed here is really just the "compilation" of the Duel 4 part series. The individual parts total up to 30 episodes. See my comment above if you want to see it in chronological order with respect to the story. A lot of people got confused by the release dates

I think the commentor posted that order for chronology of story not the release date. Although hot blooded was released earlier, it's the story of the kids and after effects of what happens in the 4 part series. So if you don't want to go through confusions of the flashbacks in hot blooded, then just watch the 4 part series first (parent story)

I found a comment on the other post:

Series in order
The Legend of Heroes: Duel on Mount Hua (2025) is a 4 part mini series
Duel on Mount Hua: Nine Yin True Sutra
Duel on Mount Hua: Eastern Heretic and Western Venom
Duel on Mount Hua: Southern Emperor and Northern Beggar
Duel on Mount Hua: Five Great Masters

After you watch those 4, this is next
The Legend of Heroes: Hot Blooded

never found subs or raw...

oh thanks!

where? I can't find it subbed anywhere... :(

please let me know if its subbed and out

subs?

maybe people will start to shift back to indie films/shows and boycott big industry media altogether (at least until the next industry emerges and monopolizes once more; hopefully not - But at least, it'll take a longer time until then if it does occur). I'm looking forward to people creating their own art once more, communities shifting back to being communities and actually creating things themselves to bring art back into life. I hope no matter how difficult it is, that the creators don't give up. I think it could also be a way of bringing about genuine ideas "straight from the horses mouth."

Yeah, there are tons of other SD actors that are quite popular I think, but they don't get to see the limelight much b/c of the lack of dramas in comparison to some who come in multiple ones at once. Good luck to them~
