>>221243974no, it's the same playbook as right wing nutjobs in the west, they don't actually care about hypocrisy, if there even is any in the case (there isn't), they just want to harass someone that won't spew their same hateful nonsense. It's like when people try to use "woke" talking points as some kind of gotcha, you can't use those arguments you don't even believe what you're trying to wield against someone.
>>221244105is the romance very sincere and loving in that drama? any cuckery?

>>221244908He's keeping the threads alive.
>>221244785Imo, wouldn't say Han Ye-seul and Lee Da-hae got canceled in the same way Seo Ye-ji did. Not that their respective controversies helped, but I always felt their careers died relatively natural deaths all things considered. Do think they all suffer(ed) from a lack of good connections and poor luck though.For me, I miss Park Shi-yeon. Though she did kinda do it to herself after being caught in a propofol bust, coming back, then getting got for drunk driving

Here he comes again telling people what they should and shouldn't watch.
Now that the dust has settled what is the kdg consensus on My Royal Nemesis?
>>221245909k-kino, but should have been 16 episodes.
Thinking about going for School S1. High school dramas really aren't that appealing to me but those first seasons had some interesting casts. Decisions...
>>221246368not 16 episodes, no watch should be a new rule of kdg!
>>221246473a second rule? I could possibly get behind this one.

>>221244112It a kdrama romance. There is always at least one other man involved.
>>221244222I'm at odds. I'm trying hard to like it but other than the abrupt female murder, nothing is edge of your seat or romantic.
>>221252502>There is always at least one other man involved.Why would you just blatantly lie like this?
>>221247695Princess Aurora is the cuck show of all cuck shows. She bounces back and forth like a ping pong ball between two men. She marries one divorces then marries the other. She lives with both in the same house, gets knocked up and she has to get a paternity test to determine the father. Jesus. The whole time she is with one of them she's thinking about the other guy.
>>221248727Just a bit of advise. I was introduced to Asian (southeast asia and east asia all of them) dramas by my east asian wife when we started dating. Some we were able to watch together. 10 years later both of us watch, usually separately. She watches a lot of micro dramas now and shares with her family and friends, they want modern romance dramas. For example. I loved Made in Korea and she couldn't watch it. I liked Moving and she thought it was stupid. We both tried Pursuit of Jade and both liked it but she got bored and dropped. I really liked Miss Korea but for her the ML too ugly.What I'm saying is if you both are honest there aren't many that appeal to both.
>>221252545Its not a lie when a romance tag means two men are competing like teenage boys for one woman and she allows it.Watching one right now a guy that belittled a FL, calling her an escort and she knows him to be a lying piece of shit. He sends her a phone so he can call her anytime. She accepts and answers that phone, day or night any time he calls. This guy is not the ML but a lying piece of shit and steals from the ML. And its not like she and everyone don't know it.
>>221252795>Its not a lie when a romance tag means two men are competing like teenage boys for one woman and she allows it.Sure WHEN that happens, but not every kdrama romance has multiple men competing so saying they all do is nonsense.
>>221252830Nearly all do, I stand corrected. However, those without are rare and I find that distressing. I'm always shocked when there isn't. So whenever I read a synopsis and it includes romance I'm wary.

kdramas have gone woke reeeeeeee
>are there any good shows without rom-ACK
Kdg won't ever admit this, but exclusive relationships are inherently built on archaic prejudices and objectifying desires of possession. It's the cucking that proves that the love is real and unconditional. The cucking makes the romance sincere.
so that's what's wrong with the japanese...
>>221260281I wish :(
>>221269380At least you admit kdramas adhere to cuck theory in defining true romantic love. So you and supporters can stop arguing it isn't prevalent in kdrama. Its not new. Finished a 2013 kdrama last night. Last episode as it tried to remind the watcher the ML and FL loved each other. (Of course the final included a flirty one on one with the SML along with her apology and hope he can get over her). In front of his mother and her family they attempted to convince the parents the ML is worthy. FL said he's my man and the ML confirmed and that shut down the argument. Shortly after the FL asked him to confirm if indeed he was hers and he said yes. He then asked if she was his and she said no, you are mine and I am mine. You belong to me but I belong to myself only.
>cuck theoryMEDS NOWnot for you but for the safety of those around you

>>221274231It's a line from the Joyce book Ulysses. I'm downloading the korean hardsubbed version of the show to find out if that's what she actually said.
what the heck is going on it's not in either the viki or the viu subs? they must have changed it but the joyce reference is the better translation imo.
>>221275163She's so quirky and cute

>'Perfect Crown', 'My Royal Nemesis' Chae Seo An on working part-time despite comfortable upbringing>Speaking frankly, she said, "I did multiple part-time jobs such as working at an electronics factory, a research facility affiliated with a major corporation's subsidiary, making card payment terminals and digital door locks, and assembling PVC components and electrical outlets. Until recently, I was working on a CCTV quality control team, and it's only been about a month since I quit.">What surprised many people even more was that she had seriously considered pursuing a path outside of acting

>>221278723She left out a hostess club

>>22124401518 Again is fucking retarded.He turns back into an 18 year old, nobody really bats an eyelid when they find out and just automatically accept it as if throwing a basketball through a hoop and having your wish granted is just an every day occurrence in Korea.They should have wrapped this up in 8 30 minute episodes.
>>221279297its still better than the zac effron version.
>>221279297Somehow 18 is the much better "go back to being 18" drama.
>>221279297not everything has to conform to your autistic need for hyper realism
best drama just passing through
>>221279297It's a fantasy romance, the magic is the setup the emotional journey is the point. Does the show commit to the emotional consequences of the premise? That's what matters, not the scientific plausibility of the basketball magic. How do you autistic stem lord types even get into kdramas?

For me it's Park Gyu-young

>>221279660Ambivalent towards most of her roles but I thought she was very good in Nine Puzzles
>>221279660>>221279694She was too plain and flat chested in Nine Puzzles
>Nine "dubtitles only" Puzzlesno thanks
>>221279446Not making any effort whatsoever to show anyone's confusion about how or why he managed to turn into an 18 year old again is just weak and lazy writing. The show treads so much water and drags its ass for ten of the 16 episodes yet still manages to have a bunch of side plots which go nowhere.
she was good in celebrity
>>221279297>>221279810The wife in that is a total milf. She's in a lot of dramas but kdg never mentions her.
>>221279403It's been 8 years and it's still the king
>>221279810then say that, but your previous comment reads like sperg complaining about goblin because goblins and immortality aren't real

>>221279931Are Korean brothers really like this?
>>221279845It has a lot of very cute girls in it for sure.>>221279895Its nothing like that whatsoever.
>>221279845I tried watching Red Swan but couldn't even make through the 1st ep...
>>221279923what is a bogate?

>>221280205I thought it was both
>>221280164I actually don't mind him in more comedic roles but he was truly awful in the ~20 mins I watched. Very unconvincing
>>221279330.That's like saying it's better to be tortured for 17 hours than an hour and 40 minutes.
>>221280701but it had the cute female principal cosplayer
>>221279600I'm in agreement. Samdalri, Art of Sarah and Filing for Love did her no favors. Shame really

8 episodes is the best length for kdrama

why do all the romance leads gotta be tall as fuck these days?
>>221281063Women these days don't even see non tall chads as men.
>>221281063Because women like tall men.
>>221280853I thought she was fabulous in Mr Queen and in a supporting role in Legend of the Blue Sea but someone needs to help her choose better roles now.
>>221281063uh oh manlet metly
>>221281063kdramas have hyper realism in many dramas.
>>221281063you gonna cry manlet?
why'd all the lank dogs get so triggered by that? it was just a question
>>2212810635'10' isnt tall for asian male
>>221281100>>221281107but kdrama romance is supposed to be about true love. wouldnt the main heroine being non superficial sell the concept more?
>>221281256Terrible bait. Realism means women will be extremely superficial and shallow
>>221281256Kdramas haven't been about sincere, true love in a long time.
over a week since new simssoaps who is her sns manager why isn't she posting
>>221281302there doesn't have to be realism in every romance is what im saying. >>221281312i guess so. it feels like they are leaning too hard into the female audience desires rather than trying to tell a good story
>>221281256How can there be true love with a short man? Explain.
>>221281358Romance is made for a women audience and not for us short men. Even I can't appreciate a "romance" with a short male lead in kdramas, fellow manlet.
>>221281362im not saying they have to be short, just that it seems weird that they're all over 6' these days. ive been to korea and sure there were a lot of tall guys there, but over 6' was still fairly uncommon
The perfect episode count depends on the story. The best kdrama one day might even have an episode count of 1 or 2.
>>221281406You want kdramas to reflect short men so people dont get the wrong impression of SK through tall male leads in kdrama?
>>221281438nonsense. you think you're being logical but your opening the doors for the the same nonsense that ruined western tv. when episode counts drop and a story suddenly needs more episodes do you really think they're gonna allow it? no
>>221281256I guess some of you haven't read female viewer comments. Older shows or new it doesn't matter. If the guys is hot to them the character he plays can be the devil but they will find the briefest non threatening gaze or non malevolent smile or comment that isn't a curse to prove redemption and fangirl worthy status.
teach you a lesson won doty
>>221281473no, i already said i dont care about realism. honestly i dont even care about this that much i just happened to notice that the last 4-5 dramas ive watched all had tall ass male leads, well above average height.
>>221281532Chinese dramas have tall leads too
>>221281532well yeah, i wouldnt expect otherwise, unless SK had the equivalent of Tom Cruise or something. but even if so, the world has changed, and height gaps and height requirements for male leads in media has increased especially in the last 10-15 years. and i dont see this trend stopping or reversing.
>>221281438This is the truth. Unfortunately the story is rarely the ultimate deciding factor when they dish out episode counts. They've always been too money-minded in this regard, though you can probably say that about any country's TV industry
Short men have our place in the world and media as supporting men and friends - tall men cant be expected to do everything, that isn't how society works. Simply be the best shorty we can be.
i think a lot of kdramas could use fewer episodes. there tends to be a lot of filler in the 16 ep count ones
>>221281475>when episode counts drop and a story suddenly needs more episodes do you really think they're gonna allow it? nowhy wouldnt they? more time for subway adbuys
this response from our short hyungs to the shortness debate is pretty cucked
>>221281616Which is why we should be cheering for lower episode counts, once it drops longer shows won't be allowed even if the story would benefit.
,>>221281699Shouldn't*
put your name on manlet
>>221281691well. all that aside - im short, not functionally impaired. im still strong and hyper smart. some chingus want to see bro vs bro pvp, but the men of the world understand it's PVE raids that nets us the best loot in life.
>>221281662I wouldn't even mind the filler if it was entertaining but it's almost always some boring ass bullshit. There are many kdramas that could've been improved if they tightened shit up
>>221281740good post
>>221281792>>221281662The worst thing about filler is when it tarnishes the show. Like a late-game amnesia episode. Or the couple separating for a while. It's tiresome and demoralizing. It shouldn't happen anymore!
>filler >filler >filler brain broken by western tv. it's okay to let a show and characters breathe. stop binge watching that's half the problem.
>>221282006thats what im sayin. so many times its obvious the story is ready to wrap up by episode 10-12, but they have to invent reasons to drag it out.
bogatekeeper in ur area!!!
filler is bad simple
filler is a tradition according to kdg rulebook
Kdg rulebook (2026 ed.)1. No romance no watch.2. No sincerity no watch. 3. No marathon no watch.

>>221282462cuckery
>>221282455bak gee hunn
>>221282459i dont see how
>>221282507Romance requires duration. Sincerity requires breathing room. You can't let a show breathe if you're suffocating it with your consumption speed. You can't feel the weight of a confession if you watched the buildup in a single six hour block. The filler binge watchers screech about is essential texture but becomes intolerable when you're trying to get through it as fast as possible.
>>221282538>feel the weight of a confessionThat confession isn't worth the time when a FL spends 14 of 16 episodes with her head up the ass of another man
>>221282676way to be extremely literal in your read of what I was trying to say. again, how did you manosphere stem lords even get in to kdramas to begin with, it's very strange.
You're bringing outside assumptions into a genre that operates according to different values. You've imported a framework from somewhere else and now you're trying to judge melodrama through it. aka you need to go back>>>/tv/sopranos
