Wokeists now want to remove books from the library to create safe space. That's against all the laws on free speech and ethical codes of the UN and IFLA. Students want to remove course materials that may trigger someone. People are behaving like they are made of glass. That's a severe misunderstanding of the basic psychological knowledge about treating traumas. It's easy to understand that wokeism will do more harm than good. The world is already a safe place. It's unethical to make children or young people fear everything. Especially as we are talking about dramas aka fiction here. Classic fairytales are often cruel and scary, and could never get published in the current culture. But many believe current culture has gone badly astray. https://www.pdcnet.org/tej/content/tej_2016_0016_0001_0017_0035

Normal everyday people don't get hunted like the rich and famous. SK is unique in putting its celebrities on a pedestal and then rejoicing madly if they fall from grace. You wanting to create safe spaces in this world, must understand that that is the root cause for censorship and cancelling. I think punishments must be left to the court, not keyboard lynch squads who give lifetime sentences.
Just noticed, second time Chansung and Yoon Hyun Min are together in a drama (first time was in My Holo Love). The writer wrote Mad For Each Other, which was funny and heartwarming, Very much looking forward to this!

Cancel culture is to be condemned, I'm not supporting him. Just try and answer the question of whether once criminals should be allowed to return to the society. Personal attacks on someone raising a general question are so foolish. Keyboard warriors are prolific in SK, what other things are you trying to do to make the world a better place than cancel people?
condemn the act - not the person!terribly sad that he took such actions and further agonizing is the fact that…
If Koreans hunted all drug users and gamblers with the same energy, but of course not. A country of the worst kind of social discrimination. The hunt of idols and actors, and just them, is insane. If ordinary people were subjected to the same treatment, prisons would be full and laws would have to be changed asap.
KBS has temporarily banned him until the final results are in. He is not permanently banned so if proven innocent…
In Nordic countries actors are just ordinary workers. Maybe they are even allowed or expected to be living not-so-puritanic lives. I hope Yoo In Ah and Jisoo migrate here because their talents are huge.
Maybe the idea of wanting to take revenge is not really good for anyone, at all? If you hold a grudge the grudge holds you. The many revenge dramas are selling a way of thinking which is frankly not good. Am glad this drama isn't revenge focused.
It's still early days to say whether it's good and what direction it will take. I had the same feeling about Reborn Rich in the beginning. It doesn't immediately win you over. The unpredictability is probably reflected in the current rating. A story of 3 people living thorough a tumultuous period in history.

Cancel culture targets individuals and not societal phenomena. Basically, that's what I mean by a lynch mob mentality. And is it humanism, to not give a second chance to criminals, at all? This is my question, basically. Also, just observing that the actor is so good they don't seem to want to replace him. Having watched Vagabond, Misty, and many other dramas, I can understand directors' and producers' choice of letting him return. Netizens wanting to directly influence things at this level - cancelling persons - often also vehemently cancelling persons who don't agree with cancelling persons, I don't think it's a good thing overall. But it is the situation we currently live in.
Damn, another drama I can't watch!!! I will not support any drama that allows a sexual predator of a minor in…
Other criminals receive sentences and return to life - sometimes even to be congressmen. Why do actors have to be cancelled for the rest of their lives? It doesn't seem fair, imo. I'm not saying his crimes aren't very serious, just that paying for the crimes via the sentences set for them by law should be enough. There's the other factor, that avoiding this actor means not being able to watch many of the very best k-dramas. I just think that in a fair society, actors should not receive a treatment different from other citizens. Cancel culture is basically a lynch mob mentality, if you think further. SK can easily make victims based on mere rumours, also. Not saying that is the case here, just my thoughts.
