Isn't it the people mass down voting as you can see they are celebrating 🎉 it too 😀.it feels like kpop lol…
You do have a point and it is fair enough. The problem I feel with this particular page (aside from the obvious spamming) is that people are mad at the wrong thing?
Yes the writer shouldn't have involved sensitive topics at all (specially seeing as they aren't willing to justify their decision). But rather than getting mad at that, people are blindly rage spamming everywhere misinformation as an absolute truth and refuse to acknowledge the fact that there could have been a mistranslation. (Believe me this one genius dared to call me zionist simply because i said that the news banners said that Izmael did the kidnapping 🤦♀️).
Half of them don't even know why they are outraged (noticed alot of comments on IG sounded like they thought the main concept of the drama is Genocide pro and not that 1 line caused the contraversy).
Let’s these kids have fun ,anyway they are naive to think MBC cares for international fan website its been 5…
Most of the accounts attacking Jang Gyu Ri's account honestly need to learn the basics again...it's so obvious a few keyboard warriors saw the post on X and just found their new "mission" without actually doing even their basic due diligence to understand what happened. 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Honestly I am glad this didn't trend in Korea since it would have been so unfair for something like this to ruin her career🤷♀️
You are absolutely right, you see that the drama is lowering the rating but you are still here. I don't understand…
Actually it's more common that you think. Check most of TVN's popular -or there I say almost all - romcom drama pages from 2024 for further context.
It's unavoidable usually (and tbf MDL is a democratic site). Since it's been barely a week and the issue this time caught more attention, things are abit more out of control than usual.
Genuine question How is Baek Sa Eon(fake) alive after the episode 11 stunt and how did Baek Sa Eon(real) die?…
Heeju was under alot of stress and exhaustion at the time so when she heard the gun shot she thought it was SE who died (rest is a nightmare induced from the above).
In reality the cops shot Real SE before he could pull the trigger.
It’s hard to take this episode seriously—though, honestly, maybe we’re not supposed to. It’s a glorious…
604 intl. area code is British Columbia (Canada) not Morocco
It's a kdrama- kdramas are known for cheesy and unrealistic plots (specially romance genre). Even the cast promised that there will be more fluff mid season onwards than thriller since this is a romance drama so fans who saw these reels popping up on their SNS knew what to expect already
Help! I really want to watch it but I heard the last two episodes kind of ruined the show, is it fine if I watch…
If you watch ep 12 with the realization that the ML only had barely 2 weeks to absorb his "character development" vs. overcome a lifetime of trauma and imposter syndrome/ obsessive need to protect the FL (even from himself), you can understand the ML's actions better and enjoy the drama (also drama too makes it clear that they are on the FL's side with this particular scene).
The Argan arc (if you have heard it)- might feel random since they didn't spend too long to flesh out the story properly unfortunately but there are subtle clues throughout the drama that show that the ML used to have experience there as a negotiator / war correspondent so his choice of place isn't as simplified as what it seems.
Ep 12 isn't their best, but if you love the MC, you can still enjoy it since they gave us 20 mins instead of last 5 minutes before the end of the show.
Ep 11 - it was fine but not as sizzling as the previous episodes for obvious reasons (you'll understand when you complete ep 10/ see the preview for ep 11) - more angsty than romantic. The scene that annoys some fans is subjective since while it wasn't the best thing for the ML to do, it is understandable if you consider the first point of this comment.
Basically if you are interested in completing the series, watch it with an open mind but remember it's a kdrama 🙈
she didn’t lie, she really knew it. remember the scene where in A tells hee joo that their accident might not…
In ah is blunt but not very tactful.
She says what she sees without really thinking. The devastation on SE's face at the memorial must have made her realize that SE wasn't going to recover from the fact that his name was the root cause of Heeju's nightmarish life at leadt for a long time.
I highly doubt SE told anything to In Ah either. In Ah is overprotective in her own way, trying too hard to make up for all the pain she caused Heeju growing up. Watching HJ wait for SE hopelessly must have made In Ah just tell her observation.
It's also the reason why HJ isn't close to In Ah at the end of the episode. In Ah was honest with SE but she failed to comfort him and tell those important words "it's not your fault". Nor did she tell HJ about their meeting so HJ could have done damage control sooner.
I'd say if you are honestly interested in the genre, it's worth watching the drama since the first 10 episodes were great IMO (remember this is kdrama land though so don't overthink stuff like injuries- this isn't a documentary😉)
Ep 11 was fine too IMO but a few did complain about the ML's choices by the end of the episode - but I feel like again this is a kdrama about a traumatized overly protective ML, so it's not really surprising either why he did what he did.
Ep 12 - if you have read the novel, you will understand the episode better since they seemed to have rushed that episode by cutting out certain important explanations which in the end made certain scenes feel disjointed unless you remember the warzone hints from ep 1 and SE's reporter friends conversations. AGAIN, this is a Kdrama and if you are more into SAJU's romance than finding logical answers, you'll probably like the episode for the most part since we did get about 20 mins of their love arc + the drama did address one of the points that annoyed most viewers by letting HJ yell at SE but I guess it wasn't enough for some viewers (i personally liked it since it showed that the drama agrees that SE made a bad choice).🙈
The contraversial scene is right at the end of ep 12 and is easily missed (I actually didn't notice it since the contraversial line is barely 5 secs long and i missed that sub completely). So honestly how that scene affects you depends on what you want to see (not being judgy, just saying since I can't dictate your view and not everybody is reading too much into it specially after the possibility if mistranslation comments came up🙈).
Overall we got a happy ending and they ended it on a cheeky note between the couple so while ep 12 wasn't their best it's not that terrible depending on who you ask.
*** (Personally if you ever plan to watch it, I would recommend you to completely ignore MDL and watch the episodes with an objective mind BUT KEEP IN MIND that SE at the core is deeply traumatized too and the "character development " he had so far only covers a few weeks which isn't long enough to cement his rational thought process)
hey, may I ask you what makes you think they wanted to show support to the Palestinians? I haven't watched the…
The arguement for this is that there is a misinterpretation issue with the way how the subtitles captured the meaning behind what the New Anchor said.
Netflix's subs make it sound like Paltima is at fault but some native Koreans and certain other foreign language users mentioned how the subtitles do not agree with the audio because the dialogue is said in a way that needs contextualisation (this is a possible scenario because Netflix has a history of messing up subtitles alot- even I have noticed with dramas where i've watched in multiple platforms, they tend to simplify the meaning)
Also the news banner and other props clearly indicate that Izmael kidnapped the Koreans.
An indept explanation is available below if you are interested :
(I still think the writer should have been more careful with the name choice since it wasn't connected to the drama anyway but there's no point crying over spilt milk eh?)
I understood why he did it first time. Just don’t understand the execution. She was suffering needlessly. He…
It looked like SE (and the writer) were hoping HJ would remember what they discussed in ep 9 when he told her that if he ever disappears to not to look for him but wait for him. This ties with his reaction when he first saw HJ in Argan.

Yes of course, that's your valid opinion.

Yesss- i hope we get something like this again. Ever since I watched Flowers of Evil earlier this year, I've been craving for this kind of drama🙈
Ep 11 was fine too IMO but a few did complain about the ML's choices by the end of the episode - but I feel like again this is a kdrama about a traumatized overly protective ML, so it's not really surprising either why he did what he did.

I liked how informative your content was since you used links to back what you said. Pretty airtight!

Enjoy (but don't forget your exam)!
Good luck btw!
