Kdramas has a huge ML problem, especially in drama where there is romance. With romance centered Kdramas this would work to some extent where the central plot is romance & the main character is the FL and ML is a support character there to make the FL happy. i.e, the female audience happy. Even if the ML in romance genre is a one dimensional character whose existence is to be a support character, it woks for female audiences, because it caters to their fantasy of having to end up with this perfect pure man, even though the FL is very flawed.
BUT
in other genres, for example, the current drama, adding romance with ML as we see in this drama is absolutely destroying the drama. The ML has so many things happening in his life & the way he jumps for a woman makes zero sense. It's the character inconsistency that kills the drama. How do you reconcile with with the background story of the ML & how the character behaves with FL?
A lot of wonderful Kdramas got screwed by injecting romance into it.
The worst drama with the fatality was 'All of us are dead'. ML running in ecstasy to his death cause the FL gave him a kiss was literally the worst character assassination in a Kdrama. ML mother in this drama dies the day before. ML watches his mother dead, turned into a zombie and few hours later he is shown as extremely happy running to his death cause he got a kiss from a girl. someone make sense of this shit. It was not just cringe. Every ne who watched that scene would be thinking 'dude, your mom just died few hours earlier and you are running in joy cause you got a kiss from a girl who liked another man'.....
Kdramas in their desire to make every ML simp for FL in every drama forget a simple fact......Every man's special lady in his life is his mother.
This drama would have been a million times better if there was zero romance.
The romance is not just a distraction but is having a major impact, negatively on the main characters. The ML without his simpy wimpy attitude towards FL would have come across as much more genuine. Now, he is just a fake.
The current trend in Kdramas is that the ML is in love but for the FL it's all about business. This pathetic trope has killed romance in Kdramas. It is also killing regular dramas with this kind of romance set up as secondary story line.
Why does a red pill person like you only seem to watch romantic kdramas? you literally under every show fixating…
the script and the drama covers this in each and every episode.
From episode 1, we see FL and the man she was shagging, the 2ML for every episode. What we don't see is a mention of ML ever liking any woman except FL.
So, take it up with the writers for writing such crap.
Why does a red pill person like you only seem to watch romantic kdramas? you literally under every show fixating…
I am only sharing what the drama is showing.
If you have a problem with pure virgin ML or with FL shagging other men, take up your complaints with the writers of the drama, not with the messenger.
Some accounts on twitter called ML loser 🤦♂️🤦♀️I mean seriously because he loves FL character…
ML is a wimpy simpy pure virgin chasing after a women who shagged other men & does not give a flying F about him.
If the ML was shown similar to FL where he shagged other women & is as casual about FL as she is about him, it would have been fine.
but, all Kdrama romances last few years have this loser simpy wimpy pure virgin ML who liked FL for a long time, while the FL would be shagging lot of other men and finally ending with the pure virgin ML who makes her happy... we have seen this loser ML and FL with other men in almost every Kdrama now a days.
God forbid a man is written to be cute and charming and absolutely adore a woman
no one is talking about violence.
This is now a deliberate misdirection. I was talking about how Kdramas pretty much make ML a clown with no backbone. This is done through the FL in 2 ways. 1. FL's in kdramas slap ML. An insulting slap that pretty much says sit the f down 2. Fl's in kdramas use filthy words to abuse ML. words like b@stard, Ahole are very commonly used.
Both these methods are used by FL's to pretty much cuck the ML in these dramas.
MY POINT WAS, you don't see ML slapping the FL or calling them as wh0res or K*unts. It never happens. I am not asking for ML to abuse or thrash the FL's. I am only pointing to the disgusting trend in Kdramas where they use FL to pretty much dehumanize the ML's
Another Kdrama with good potential getting neutered by romance.
Sorry but the 2 male leads are just unwatchable. Their simping is just...yuck. Worse, they don't resemble men in real world. Not sure which planet these male leads belong to, it's definitely not earth.
These Kdrama romances should stop projecting the Male lead as 'main lead'. These men are just supporting characters the only main lead in these dramas, the FL.
The male leads in these dramas are just dildos with no background, character growth and has nothing going on for them.
in every Kdrama romance the only thing a ML does is be in love with FL and just wait for her get tired of shagging other men come back to him.
delivers what it promises. Excellent action pieces with ample gore.
Just the right amount of episodes as well, it did not overstay it's welcome, stuck to the plot and delivered it without the usual shit a lot of other Kdrama shove in to prolong the run time and episodes.
God forbid a man is written to be cute and charming and absolutely adore a woman
Why not, Just this year, 2 dramas,
1. Potato Lab 2. My Dearest Nemesis
Both dramas show FL using absolutely filthy abuses on ML, b@stard and A**hole used repeatedly. In fact in Potato Lab, the abuses are even by FL's female friends.
Ask me for more, I will happily provide.
There is a difference between violence as part of story, it is fine & abuse, which is NOT fine. Slapping, punching and abuses are NOT part of story especially when they are one way street from FL to ML in kdramas.
There are dramas where FL's do a lot worse but slapping and calling someone a b@stard has a high level disrespect, A similar example for FL would be if ML called her a wh0re or slapped her in face in front of all and laughed. That's the kind of stuff I am talking about, stuff which a lot of Kdrama FL's do to ML's in a lot of Kdramas.
God forbid a man is written to be cute and charming and absolutely adore a woman
There is a difference between killing vs Slapping FL across the face or calling her a wh0re or Kunt. I am not talking about treating each other badly. FL's do far worse to the ML including this drama where the FL treats the ML like a bug,
I am talking thrashing, like slapping across the face, punching them until they bleed or abusing them using words like wh0re or kunt. FL's do this all the time to ML's in many Kdramas. This is basically to show dominance, insulting, demeaning and show ML as a wimp.
in Korea Odyssey, the ML is never mean to FL. It was something he had to do until he realizes there is another way
You can go to a forum where manga and dorama (what ever it is) and make this point.here though, the ML's are always…
When the same pure virgin ML who loved the FL for eternity and the same FL who has shagged other men is repeated over and over in every kdrama, what else am I going to say?
You are free to like to this pure virgin ML with FL who shagged other men Kdramas and I am free to trash these dramas.
God forbid a man is written to be cute and charming and absolutely adore a woman
I am not asking for old dramas. I am also definitely not asking for ML to treat FL like the current FL's treat the ML's in most Kdramas.
All I asking for is to mix up Kdramas where in some dramas the ML's are cute and adore the FL & in some dramas the Fl;s are cute and adore the ML.
Right now, it's just one way street where the ML's are adoring the FL & the FL treats the ML like a dildo.
Just on 'awfulness', I have watched a few old Kdramas but I never found any ML thrashing or abusing FL. 90% of current Kdramas have FL's thrashing ML and as well abusing him with filthiest of words like 'b@stard', 'Ahole' etc etc.
This is a challenge, name a single Kdrama in last 10 years where the ML thrashes the FL or abuses her with filthy words?
What unrequited?She dated other men and even had a fiance.If she had unrequited feelings for ML and then had another…
What?!!
What do you think 'Unrequited love' means? If you stopped loving that person, it no longer is 'Unrequited love'. It at that point means you were in love, NOT 'Unrequited love'..
People fall in love all the time, fall out of love all the time, even one sides. It is not 'Unrequited love' when you love some one. The term 'Unrequited love' is used for a situation where you have loved someone for a long time and still do.
If you were in love with some and then did not, proceeded to fall in love with another man and make him your fiance, you would not call the first guy as 'Unrequited love' ever. He is someone you had a crush on would the best way to describe.
See...this is mental gymnastics one needs to go through to defend an Ahole like the FL in this drama, piss poor writing.
