Thank you, Kiho. I appreciate it. :)

How do you know he is "happy?" I hope he is, but you have no way of knowing that at all. If my theory is correct, and I have said "IF" and "it is MY opinion," as opposed to a fact all along, then he may well be miserable.

Talent agencies put out so many lies and bullshit and statements written by their PR departments for an actor to pretend to say, that it's astonishing anyone would take such statements on face value.

That is the sorrowful thing about shame and face-saving-based societies like Korea and Japan: A celebrity suffering in silence can't tell anyone or discuss it with anyone because they are terrified it will be leaked to the press, or they are just too embarrassed to be having mental health issues in the first place. People HATE to discuss their emotions and mental health in Korea.

And so everyone remains quiet until the next suicide...

lol

You're talking to the wrong half of this argument.
Yeah, I'm fine. How about you?

I guess you missed that I asked if they were "molested" by a person one year older than them, a clear reference to a situation in which there can BE no molestation because no one is pre-pubescent in this story. It's called mockery. Do you think an 18 year-old kissing a 19-year-old is "something "so serious?"

Lord, the ancient Internet thing "you OK man? You need to see a therapist? Did someone not love you as a child...?" designed purely as a misdirect from the lameness of your own position to the implied, unhinged emotionality of mine. It never works.

It's your pedo and incest fantasies I've mentioned, not you personally.

"Pedophile" an exaggeration? No, it's a lie. A falsehood, just like the "incest" bit you were flogging.

Actually, I am one hundred percent OK with what has transpired between the teacher and the student to this point in the story, even if it was happening right in front of me. The only "shit" here is the stuff inside your skull.

Let me ask: What is it YOU seek? Why are you so obsessed with pedophilia and incest, to the point you invent it out of thin air in a drama you're watching? Did some 19 year-old molest/rape/kiss/hug/look at you when you were 18 and you haven't recovered?

There are a lot of resources to help with your unresolved trauma from such a horrendous experience.

lol

Have you researched the definitions of "pedophilia" and "incest" yet?

Didn't think so.

Maybe you can just go away.

It's just the one freak commenter, I think. lol

I'm loving it in general, but I agree that the momentum built during episodes 1-3 was lost in episode 4.

Not feeling it.
I thought it would be powerful, deeply moving, all that stuff, but It's just not happening for me.

Dropped.

I'd ask that you not throw around that word "WE" quite so loosely. Most people do not pile on like ravenous vampires eager to destroy anyone with talent and grace who dares to be human. I certainly do not do that; I make a point of NOT doing it.

The monsters, mostly anonymous, asshole "netizens" online, are a specific group of people who have far more power with their vicious hate/jealousy than their numbers justify, who do the vile work of character assassination, with total disregard for facts. RUMOR is their life blood. I hate and despise them.

I don't know what Korea needs to do to get a handle on this appalling problem, but I wish much more would be done than currently is. Most importantly, I think its culture must free itself from this fetish/obsession with SHAME, so that people put in a harsh spotlight do not respond by feeling that the existence of even one hundred percent false allegations is somehow their fault and that everyone is looking down on them and there family, thus the only honorable way out is death.

From the U.S., and as a huge fan of Korean cinema and some of its music, the view of some of my favorite actors appearing at funeral after funeral after funeral, is horrific. I am intensely worried about Yoo Ah In, who has been in the Netizen target sites for months, taking this path. God, I hope not. He is such a gifted actor.

God, I hate all this.

No one said you can't have an opinion, just that you use words as they are defined in the dictionary. Your need for attention is "desperate" in that here you are, long after several comments have proven no incest and no pedophilia, but you're now trying to change the subject to one of vague moral disapproval of a teacher "kissing his student," BY ACCIDENT, YOU NINNY! and you've dropped the ridiculous "incest" fantasy altogether.

If no characters in movies or dramas did questionable things, even by accident, they would all be boring as hell. People do questionable, gray-area things in life everyday, ergo characters do questionable things in story-telling all the time.

An answer to be expected from the pea-brain Church Lady who sees pedophilia and incest around every corner.

BRAVO.

lol

Actually, all you need to do is learn the definitions of words and use them properly. You may think it's "gross" or "weird" for a 25-27 year old to kiss a 17-18 year old, but whatever it is, it most definitely is NOT pedophilia.

I get that you are morally superior to me and I bow down before your purity of heart, soul, and mind. You, alone among all humans, it is clear, are righteous and pure while the rest of us are horny scum.

Be that as it may, however, you still have to abide by the proper definitions of words like the rest of us.

It's notable you didn't even try to support your use of the word "incest." I think you knew perfectly well you were misusing the words when you wrote your first comment, but were eager to show off your high moral standing with a stupid comment.

I find it funny how you can't seem to find any way of arguing besides making up shit I never said.

I said he sets off MY gaydar, MY, MINE, ME, get it? I said I think he's gay. I didn't say YOU or anyone else thinks so, did I now? But that's my opinion and I've every right to share it.

I don't care what YOU assume, that's your thing. How dare you assume he's straight, brainiac? Because he got married? lol Which leads us to more evidence of your homophobia; You think being gay is shady and disgusting, else why would you so vehemently argue with me as though I've asserted he is Satan or something equally sinister like, you know, being gay.

What in the world does being a fan of an actor have to do with the fact he sets off my gaydar despite his wedding? Nothing, that's what.

I've known a lot of men inside and outside the entertainment industry who have married as a cover for their sexuality. Gay actors are a pretty common thing, but especially in Korea, where being openly gay is still a negative, like it clearly is to you, most of them choose to hide it.

And bigots like you happily play along.

Oh man, this is...bad.

Dropped.

good. me too. He did the right thing near the end by going over the edge with his former friend. That's another reason I cut him slack on the funeral.

This movie just wore me down.
Plot confusing as hell.
When you're watching one of the most flabbergasting chase scenes you've ever scene, with thrill after thrill and yet somehow, you're bored, there's a problem.
