not this comment again omg 😪 you acting as if it's a bad thing the world might be influenced by women in dramas…
I have been watching Kdramas and Cdramas for over a year now, I have not seen ML slapping FL. Not sure of older dramas though.
Yes, ML do act like jackasses towards the FL but the drama always shows consequences of ML being a jackass. Also, being a jackass in these dramas is not just limited to ML. It's a behavior ark, where the characters are made to realize the shitty things they did & grow. It is not shown as 'power'. At least to viewers it is never shown as power. Regarding consequences, it need not be jail or person slapping back but a realization of what they did is wrong and making amends is all that is needed.
I have zero issues with how the FL is portrayed in this particular drama or even towards the ML.
but the drama that kind of put me off was 'Why her'. the FL is angry and the ML is just near her and she proceeds to repeatedly slaps him. The second drama is 'Cafe Minamdang', which frankly has a funny tone to the violence and is not shown malicious. there are currently 2-3 Kdramas running that has the FL physically assaulting the ML. Now show me one drama running or may be that has been released this year that has the ML slapping the FL. I might have missed it, so, genuinely want to know.
not this comment again omg 😪 you acting as if it's a bad thing the world might be influenced by women in dramas…
You are contradicting yourself.
You say violence like this is always wrong
And then you belittle the person pointing to the wrong since the wrong has literally no consequences in the drama.
Point is not about the violence, as you mentioned, it is part and parcel of any drama. What is discussed is the complete lack of consequences for these actions.
lastly, I did not realize slapping some one just because you can is called 'power'. What next? raping or murdering someone is also 'power'?
not this comment again omg 😪 you acting as if it's a bad thing the world might be influenced by women in dramas…
you got the core of the argument wrong.
It is ok for a drama to show the FL or any female character hitting ML or other men, it is also ok for a drama to show ML or any male character hitting FL or other women.
I am not saying it is ok for men and women to hit each other...
point being - it is ok for a drama to show it as part of the narrative to build the story. Some dramas do deal with subjects like abuse, rape, murder, torture etc. While the acts are condoned in real life, in a drama they can be part of story telling with logical consequences like punishment or karma biting them back
What the original post was pointing at is the casual attitude of the drama to slapping by the FL on the ML. If in a drama it was the ML slapping the FL because he can, we would naturally want the ML to suffer some consequence for his actions. At the least a kick to his balls. Similarly for the story to make any sense, the slapping by FL should have some consequences being brought on her. What seem to be happening in recent Kdramas is that this violence by the FL is never addressed in terms of consequences for her.
Drama is different to real life. A drama needs to be logical. Characters actions need to have consequences, otherwise the drama does not have continuity as well logic.
i absolutely LOVED the fact that she was dating the Ghost lord. they were beautiful together and i was really…
Add to that the ML simped for the FL for 80k years & for the FL, he was like third or fourth on the list of important people. The ML was willing to die for the FL while she was pretty much meh about their love and chooses to forget it. The best was when she goes on a drinking bing when the ML dies, just like how she gets drunk when her first boyfriend cheats on her.
only minor sticking point is the violence of FL towards ML. Sure they show it as funny in the drama but it is not when done repeatedly. The drama should have toned it down. I have seen this in drama named 'Why Her' as well. the FL repeatedly slaps the ML and there are really no consequences for that in that drama as well. This is something new I have started to notice in Kdramas, pretty common in Cdramas though.
U find sml better cause he is borderline psychopath n a certified stalker 🤪
- I did not intend to berate the country. It was in response to that person making it personal and berating me.
Having said that, 2ML was a stalker and a poison. This drama shows ML and FL having zero problems with his stalking and fondling the FL. That person was trying to make it as if I supported stalking, hence the post about the drama showing ML and FL never having an issue with the stalker and in fact were actively encouraging him to do what ever he wants.
I get it though, in many Cdramas, the writers want multiple men in FL's life. They want multiple men groping and grabbing the FL because the viewers I guess seem to like these sort of things happening because that seem to sell in Cdramas. BUT it just makes the FL stupid at best, at worst this makes her a douche bag - which incidentally how the FL comes across in this drama.
Do you know why the FL comes across as a douche bag in these dramas? because you almost never see ML portrayed in these kinds of scenarios. When you have ML portrayed like that and FL portrayed like how she is in this drama, the FL comes across as a douche.
U find sml better cause he is borderline psychopath n a certified stalker 🤪
You seem to be conveniently forgetting the single most important point. The FL is the one shown to be encouraging the 2ML stalking and rape culture. This woman does not draw a line with the 2ML even after she has a boyfriend. it's the FL and ML who are promoting the rape and stalking culture by not thrashing the 2ML long back.
You seem to be the one encouraging stalking and rape, not me. just think on it. I dislike this drama because FL is disgusting for letting the stalker near her. I dislike the ML for not thrashing a stalker who is fondling his girl. YOU on other hand does not seem to be having a problem with this behavior of FL and ML.
perhaps you should carefully read my first post. I disliked all of them because all of them are pathetic characters. the 2ML fares better than the ML and FL for the single reason I stated.
Why would a girl who already has a boyfriend let another guy do whatever he wanted with her? She would pretty much be abusive to the ML but the 2ML keeps taking advantage of her and she does not even blink. She is disgusting.
ML is a pathetic wimp. He should have beaten the crap out of the 2ML or dumped the FL for not drawing a line with the 2ML. But this wimpy dildo had no self respect. may be thats what the viewers like, a wimpy simp who would not stand up for himself and lick the boots of the FL.
You know the worst scene in this drama? The FL suspecting ML of cheating and going through his things. She practically had the 2ML near her for most of the drama but she dares suspect ML and disrespect him by going through his stuff.
2ML was not the most toxic person. The most toxic was the FL. She kept enabling a stalker to stick a finger in her bum as and when he wanted. No drawing boundaries or cutting him off from her life. the ML was the second most toxic person for letting a stalker take advantage of the situation, the 2ML was third most toxic person.
the drama through FL and ML enables the 2ML stalking and rape,
Now go and cry about the third world country that made this stupid and disgusting drama.
U find sml better cause he is borderline psychopath n a certified stalker 🤪
Between a shitty FL, a gutless wimp of ML and a stalker who goes for the girl, yeah, the stalker comes across as better.
FL through out the drama let the stalker fondle her as and when he wants The ML, let a stalker fondle his girl, sometimes even in front of him and was OK with it. Worse, he was a wimp who would not dare speak to FL about the other guy in her life.
Why blame the stalker when the girl and her boy friend had no problems with his stalking?
It knew what kind of story it was, did not deviate one bit from the central theme of the drama - gaming.
It was a near perfect drama. Very interesting characters. It was interesting to watch ML relationships with various characters of the drama. He was a best friend to his mate and his sister, he was a teacher to a girl, a gaming star to another, a leader to the motley crew that eventually battles to the top.
There is zero romance and it made this drama that much more wonderful, considering how pathetic Cdrama romances usually are.
Lost all patience with this drama when the FL stayed in a relationship with a man she had ZERO interest in for…
This drama would have worked better if the main leads became besties rather than lovers. The romance was distracting and felt out of place, especially considering how smart the main leads were portrayed.
FL, ML, 2ML and the guy who also likes the FL are unlikable. The FL has ZERO empathy and frankly is disgusting for various reasons. the ML is a pathetic gutless wimp. the 2ML is better than these two because he has the courage to go for what he want's, even though he was way out of line.
Depends, the FL is a Mary Sue on a power trip.If some one likes that kind of a character, then they can go for…
If your partner is allowing a person who confessed to them to be near them or be involved in them in their lives that aggressively - that partner does not deserve you. Better dump that person and look for some one else.
The ML in Cdramas have many flaws but when it comes to love, they seem to be very dedicated and committed. The FL's on other hand seem to do well in all things except love. In many Cdramas it becomes harder and harder to root for FL in the love angle. They simply don't seem to deserve the ML.
Yes, ML do act like jackasses towards the FL but the drama always shows consequences of ML being a jackass. Also, being a jackass in these dramas is not just limited to ML.

These dildo ML's are pretty common in Cdramas.
Unfortunately they seem to be making their way into Kdramas as well.
FL or ML do not need to fit into patterns of what we 'want'.
They need to be interesting to make the story line appealing and engaging.
The ML was willing to die for the FL while she was pretty much meh about their love and chooses to forget it. The best was when she goes on a drinking bing when the ML dies, just like how she gets drunk when her first boyfriend cheats on her.

This is something new I have started to notice in Kdramas, pretty common in Cdramas though.
Though there are minor hints that FL may have had a crush on ML in the past.
Got to the actors props for acting that scene with a straight face.
The sister is my fav character of the show, she is adorable.
Having said that, 2ML was a stalker and a poison.

They should have cut down few episodes to make it tighter but over all this was a cute drama.
