It's not that weird that a girl does nursing, why does she have to be in med school? It's more weird to me that…
She went to nursing school because she fell for him and figured it was the easiest way to get close to him! How's that not dumbing down women and demeaning people (MEN & WOMEN & everyone else) for whom the nursing is a calling!! No, I am not looking down on nurses but your words just confirm the stereotypes enforced by the society and the dramas like this! Why are there more women in nursing? Why couldn't the ML be a nurse and she a doctor? Women are constantly put down and encouraged (when they are since it is not the case everywhere just look at Afganistan!!!) to go into care professions when men are told be be strong and decisive. When a women behaves like the ML she's a bitch when it is a man, it is swoonworthy? Double standards are still in power everywhere and it is up to us, the viewers to ask for a better representation of women in dramas!
A guy crashes at another's place. They know each other. They spend the day together. And following night. The second guy's attitude is really ambiguous towards the first guy. Then the 2nd guy's boyfriend calls. The first guy does nothing after all in spite of temptation! NB. It had taken me longer to write this than to watch it. Worth the watch though! Actors are handsome and expressive! And the first guy looks like New (Kao from Dark Blue Kiss) !
great article to @op/writer :D, it was very informative and a great readand @Selbee, One thing I do have to point…
True for the US who have been swamped so deep into woke political correctness that the censorship(cancel culture!) has become widespread (that's why I am not watching US shows anymore!) though NOT governement implemented... so far. Recent events bode nothing well for the future. In Europe, we are managing, still, to resist the anglosaxon wokeism though I do not know for how long because there have been instances where some programs have been censored (recently a cartoon has been censored by a major TV station here because of alleged racial profiling of a character!) All of this is awful and very scary as to where we are heading with such insidious censorship! As for China, which is a dictatorship just like Iran you mentioned, but on another scale. I do not fear Iran but China sends shivers down my spine with their politics and the sheer size and numbers (propaganda controlling population: I KNOW indoctrination, I lived it!)! They are slowly taking a foothold (Silk Road project) all over the world and our old democracies cannot fight their financial power. Their censorship is widespread, controlling every aspect of life in China so no matter how creative the filmmakers are, the politics and the propaganda are always there! Sorry for the rant, but censorship is just something I cannot condone in any shape or form or find leeways.
Don't you just hate those fake cliffhangers? I mean, how many times have you seen the main characters killed off in first episodes? This is not The Game Of Thrones!😉
Very informative article. Thank you, I was interested to find out more about c-dramas but reading this does not motivate me to watch them. Quite the opposite! How can they make good dramas with the heavy censorship? The very word gives me the creeps! Doesn't watching c-dramas automatically condone censorship?!?
If I understood correctly, there are two versions: 13+ & 18+. Are they very different? Is it the case of Something In My Room repeating (cut version was incomprehensible !!!)?
Very nice watch! Also makes you appreciate the freedom of speech and liberty to think whatever the hell you want! The world out there is getting scarier by the minute: we should wake up before it is too late!!!!
Links for 13 episodes cuts (don't forget to read the hilarious comments on the top of the screen). For the last one the GMMTV cut is ok: or just watch the last episode FFWing through boring (i.e. not PeteKao) bits!
