Parallel World from the Future
Replying to Berbox Kay lee Zona Apr 19, 2025
No because why are non romance shows so good at making romance than the romance shows themselves...that's a mystery…
The thing is, the "romance _genre_" is not about "romantic relationships", ot is just one small part of it. Those in production took courses related to caeatove fiction and one of it is understanding the different genres.

So, if it's a "romance _genre_", they mark it as such. Which is correct.

The problem is with the audiences. Most assume that "romance" = "romantic relationships" only. So, if the show isn't about "romantic relationships" people get disappointed because they assumed there will be one because it's "romance".

Then for shows that are not "romance", people are happy with the "romantic relationships" usually, not always, because they had no expectations, and then surprise there's one. If there was an expectation , people would probably be disappointed (again not always but you'll see it a lot here in MDL).

Seems like it.
Most Pacific Asian cultures have extended families. There are three types:
1. Parents and grandparents live with us
2. Other families live with you (usually the family of your uncle or aunt; but sometimes a close friend's or family friend's family)
3. In-laws (usually to help them because they're struggling in life, or their work is nearer, so the family insists they just live with them)

I'm from the Philippines, extended families are the norm here as well.

What do you mean by anti-fan comments? If they were straight on hate and harrasment then sure. But if someone…
The "anti-fans" are the one who invade shows just because the actor is there, not because they hated their acting in that show they invaded. That's not a "genuine dislike", that's pure hatred.

the same dragon (gangcheori) that failed to enter heaven in the first scene
Sorry, after reading my question I was confusing. 😅 I meant the actors, the dragon human was a guest then?

Them describing Kim Sabi as an "AI" in the official websites (Korean) is them trying to avoid mentioning anything about Autistics and Neurodivergents.

Of all the Neurodivergent "types", Autistics are the №1 and most often described as "AI" or "robotic". And any one described that and later were diagnosed are often given an Autism diagnosis as well.

Even after the huge success of Attorney Woo, they still are afraid of admitting if a character is Autistic when it's obvious.

You really can't change a society through dramas these days because people dismiss is as fiction and forget it later. Back in the 20th century, people pick up the lessons and message from fiction and learn from it. Today, even if you claim it's based on a true story, people still labels it "unrealistic". 😅

We need an AI in MDL.

Settings for AI:
* Rage comments = hide
* Anti-fan comments = hide
* Civil and constructive feedback = show

Title The Divorce Insurance Spoiler
That wasn't a bad condition. To claim the insurance, neither partner should be involved in an affair.I think that's…
There's nothing that can be done if it was explained and outlined in the contract. If one still bought a policy, and then later tried to claim but it turns out the reason was affair, it is what it is.

At least based on the little preview, it seems the policy was vauge on to whom it applies.

Maybe that will be the topic for next week, how they will solve it so the aggrieved still receives it while also preventing them from divorcing. 😅

That's the funny thing about them. They're finding loopholes in their policy, but at t he same time they need to prevent them from divorcing if they want it the policy to launch. 😅

Wow. I hate those types of people like the FL.

I understand if she suspects Mr. Homeless, he tells the most unbelievable stories. But believing the lying bastard Chef? It's a simple logical analysis!

For example, how dumb and stupid is she to not connect that Mr. Homeless saw the signboard she herself installed? Even a freaking kid can make that connection. That's not evidence because she's the one who made that signage. IF Mr. Homeless said it prior to the delivery of the signage, then sure, believe the lies of the Chef.

And can't she detect the type of words and stories the Chef is spouting? Her f***ing brain is telling her not to listen to the Chef, and she did the reverse. What a total waste of brain.

I've met people like that IRL and they are very annoying.

Also, "Tell me the truth". No, people who say that are actually saying, "Tell me what I want to hear".

Anyone who ask that are deaf to the truth. They are also blind. If you tell them there is a snake in front of their face and biting them, they won't believe you.

People like that are a waste of time. They are not worth it. Zero. Nada. Zilch.

I'm sorry. I'm just coming from experience. Forgive them but severe your connection with them. They don't trust themselves so they don't trust other people. You are not their parent so cut them off. There are 8 billion people in the world who deserves your loyalty, faithfulness, and friendship. You are not god to stick with people like the FL.

I think that's fair for the insurance provider. An affair is the worst ground for annulment and divorce. Even in Abrahamic religions, marital affair is a huge NO.

never watched Hospital Playlist.. should i watch it b4 this? is it essential to understand this drama?
It's fine. True spin-offs are always standalone from the original, and if there's a need to mention the original, they explain it fully within the spin-off itself, instead of expecting audiences to watch the original.

"Fake spin-offs" are those labeled a "spin-off" but are not. They expect audiences to have watched the original and they rarely add context or explanations when referencing something from the original. These are actually a sequel or a prequel or a sidestory.

Resident Playbook is fortunately a true spin-off. 😁

Also, I'm confused. Am I supposed to be shipping the in-laws? LMAO cause like, I feel like I shouldn't but the…
They'll definitely fall in love.

It's fine, it's not common but it happens. Usually it happens with identical twins. Their twins on both sides also marries their in-law twins.

It will be cool to see how Koreans present in-laws marrying each other. Especially in an extended family dynamics.

The "useless" guy (so far) is probably going to be partnered with Ms. Cellphone.Autistic-coded Sabi, I'm not sure.
Ahh, those are very good points! Indeed, they match more as they counterbalance each other's personality. He can bring out the the fun side of Sabi, and she can tame his "wildness". 😁

I've been thinking about that too, who's the new guy. If the other two are going to have partners, Ms Beauty will likely want to have one as well. I dunno, I see her that way, not behind the "trend" or being left out. It would be interesting too if she gets one, especially if this spin-off gets another season. The GenZ character. 😀

There is more to Yo-yo than what they explained in E05.

1. The _modern_ design of "yo-yo" was invente by a Filipino, an Ilokano to be exact, in 1928.
2. He founded his toy company and named it "Yo-yo".
3. He provided 600+ jobs through his company.
4. "Yo-yo" is an Ilokano word, not a Filipino word. The Filipino language did not exist back then.
5. While the "toy" itself is ancient, the _modern_ design we see today is only 97 years old as of this post.

Can someone rearrange the MDL cast list? Move the active regular members to the top. The cast list is so hard to load in mobile because it's too long.

Oh, MDL, you need to add "pagination". RM's cast list is very long.

Yeeun driving episode = Welcome back Yeeun! 😁 (After the "burned-out" side comment which led to her getting on the sides in the following episodes (it was like she was penalized for it).)

Now they're back to regular banter with Yeeun. Hahaha.

About the episode itself, she CAN drive. She learns fast. More like, she's remembering what she learned to get her license. She just forgot it.

The funniest part was when she's eating while driving. She really tried to hold her laughter for a long time, and showed her talent on how to eat without touching and spilling the food. ðŸĪĢ It was made even more funnier by how the members accurately described the whole process. ðŸĪŠ

It was so hilarious and it was a perfect comeback. 10 stars for that!

I think it became an issue because she was only starting. I mean she was just given a chance that so many desire,…
True. But from her comment that episode, it appears that she's taking too many projects because of her sudden popularity. It was probably why she made that "burned-out" comment, she meant it ie general, not just Running Man.

Of course, it said publicly, and on the show which helped her grow, sent a different message. It was like indirectly saying, "I'm too tired because RM made me so popular". The regular members didn't like it either, they could've said something like, "It's undersandable, your sudden popularity earned you a lot of projects. You're now a celebrity, you'll survive and get used to it". But none of them did. Instead it was, "then stop working". 😅

"Burnt out" is never discussed openly even for us non-celebs, especially in Pacific Asian cultures. I'm from the Philippines, and we keep quiet about it. If celebs here disappear, they just say, "taking a break for health reasons", although we can guess they're too tired and overwhelmed. 😝

Yeeun just need to be learn that there things she shouldn't say openly and publicly, especially not in a variety show.

Here in the Philippines, we have plenty of LIVE broadcast variety shows. Running Man airing Yeeun's comment is a clue that even the staff were not happy with what she said that day, or at least the people who decided to include that clip. They could've cut it out.

She'll do great. She just needs to learn.
