Thank you, I can see your point too, I really had a hard time with that one and wanted to show that what is caring and what is controlling is really not that simple.

This is so very complicated it is hard to know where to start and it is easy to get discouraged. There is also internalized sexism as well as the problem that people who lack awareness often gain more on an individual level by siding with the opressors. But by raising awareness things can sloooooooooooooooooowly change.

Great, I am glad you appreciated this 🤭

Thank you, sounds interesting Ill try to check them out ❤

I have not seen any of these but thank you for mentioning them. ❤

Hi, thank you for reading and commenting on this. I wrote this article june to july so it was before both at a distance spring is green. If you do want my take on Nevertheless I did write a review of it here, what I wrote may actuallysurpriseyou: https://mydramalist.com/profile/Shirioink/review/162363

Thank you for your comment
No It's okay not to be okay was not mentioned this part, because the focus for the first 2 parts was consent in relation to violence by men (which I explained in the introduction), however what the focus for a part 3 (if there will be one) has yet to be decided. I will say that the behaviour that has been pointed out here is universal and important to be aware of no matter what gender the perpetrator is. And yes we can most certianly love a drama even if the leads behaviour is problematic.

Ill get back to you if and when I do it ❤

Was that an offer to help out?

Thank you! I am happy to see you back in my comment section 😉 at the moment there are a bunch of other themes being written/in editing I am guessing part 2 of marriage or bring out your inner anger will be up next from my side but once those are done I may just go for a part 3.

This may become a series with more parts (I still have a lot to write about) so you never know...I would need some help with a J-one but keep your eyes open and we will see what happens

I have seen that (over a year ago) but forgotten thank you so much ❤

Interesting observation, have watched very few J-dramas but I do think this subject is pretty universal and can be spotted everywhere. Thank you for your thoughts about this. There is definitely a difference between the two.

The dialog and cuteness from the male lead in SWDBS has completely made me forget all his wrong doings... both with how he waits, the whole talking, the protecting without asking for stuff in return (okay a little bit in the hospital), and most of all the heart in the sand...

I have watched touch your heart but it was a while back so I forgot about those, I do remember loving them as a couple thank you for reminding me about them but the same thing happened in Records of youth, after he kisses her she tells him that he does not have to ask any more. However even so people should try to get a feel for the situation because people do have the right to change their mind, just a side note. Any way I am glad you loved the article as well as shared your thoughts and these lovely kissing scenes.

Thank you, I had completely forgotten about those thank you for reminding me, it is odd how quickly one can forget those kisses even if the build up to them at the time could have been huge. All i remember from CT was the kissing for the sake of the country bit...

The umbrellas here where just so pretty and well used!

You are welcome, I am happy you read and enjoyed it.

I can see where you are coming from when it comes to Do Bong Soon, and am really happy you voiced your opinion, please continue to do so because we need more of that voice to be heard. I chose to write about it from a wider slightly different prospective (same with some of the other titles here) but still think your point is valid and important to make.

I completely agree about the fun to watch but not always so fun in real life, I think Mad for each other showed that side of it pretty well, it is just a small part but it is a start and I too hope to see a lot more of that in various ways.

Anyway thank you so much for your comment! Have a nice whatever time it is where you are ❤

Hope you enjoy them, there are more in the comments. 😊

That is probably one of our times biggest missconseptions that the way a person looks should matter in these situations. I can apprecialte the idea of people being a ble to change (on film) but really do want to see more o fit called out and called what it actually is. Good point about the forced kisses being an assult!

Ok, I do not know what you are trying to say but hi there, I hope you enjoyd the article and I guess yes what is fun to watch is not always fun to experiance in real life.
