we watching Ji Chang Wook new show this week?
>>223166815Seems interesting, shame it's only 8 episodes but at least they're long episodes.>Set in the rigid social world of the Joseon era, Madam Cho is a sharp and charismatic woman trapped by the strict limitations imposed on her because of her gender. Frustrated by a life dictated by rules she never chose, she decides to reclaim a sense of control in a daring way by orchestrating a calculated game of seduction.>She challenges Cho Won, a notorious charmer who treats love as nothing more than a pastime, to win over Hui Yeon, a young widow devoted to a life of chastity after her husband’s death. Intrigued by the challenge and confident in his abilities, Cho Won accepts, seeing it as just another conquest.>But Hui Yeon is not easily swayed. Determined to uphold her vows, she resists his advances, even as his persistence begins to stir emotions she has long suppressed. As the lines between manipulation and genuine feeling blur, all three find themselves entangled in a dangerous emotional game where desire, pride, and vulnerability collide, and no one is guaranteed to emerge unscathed.
>cradles you in her arms and wipes your tears>you come to your senses and get flustered, draw back a little to look into her face>you're my mate>of course i'll care for you, anon>let me hold you again (softly)>she gently embraces you once more; you feel as if you're entirely covered by her softness

It's fun but you won't be missing much if you never end up watching>most of their more recent works have this super generic/overly digital look to them that I don't really dig... might just be me though idkNot just you. When it comes to making money moves, they're a really ambitious studio. But that ambition doesn't often carry over into their dramas themselves I find. Maybe because they shit out so many, they don't really care to develop the more artistic aspects in a lot of them
>>223170947not qualified based on episode count, if you combine the two seasons and pick a year the doty committee might be able to make an exception.

They should turn Made in Korea into a romance thriller battle of the couples. Kitae and the yakuza qt against Alain Delon and his fangirlgf.
Finished Family Matters. Super spoilers, don't hover if you've not seen it: I kind of wish we could see simpler plots -- obviously the story here wasn't particularly 'complex' or 'deep' by any means, but I don't know why we always need some multi-headed plot with some evil organization or similar behind everything. I'd have honestly much preferred a more straight-forward supernatural family that just happens to get tangled up with an actual serial killer instead

What does Park Bo Young think of pby schizo?
>>223171758Also, I should've checked who actually acted as the screenwriter. I was excited to see Kim Gok and Kim Sun as the directors, since they usually have such a distinct and wacky style, but it seems like they must not have had all that much creative freedom. I still had fun, though.

>jdrama>cdramaespecially the cdrama spam is forced and purely meant to derail the thread
>>223172704I genuinely like c-drama a lot though.
kdg is a sincere general. insincere characters out!
>>223172704about 5 threads ago people were saying c-dramas were welcome. now im no watcher of that shit due to the dubbing. but i haven't found the posts annoying at all. im ok with them staying.
>xitter anon talks about women responding to men crying with scorn>point out that chink girls are different because, in their romance stories and fantasies, they care for their husbandos, responding with love instead of contempt>add my waifu pics from love in the clouds >lots of guys with yellow fever from around the world agree
>>223172773There is only one guy bitching about cdrama mentions. I don't mind it and have watched a few mentioned here. For me its harder to find a good cdrama than it is a good kdrama. Its easiest for me to find a good jdrama. jdrama you don't get bait and switch.
>>223172855how do we get western women to be sincere like our cdrama FLs?
>>223172867jdramas and thai dramas are the best
are turkdramas any good
>>223172773yeah when they're not used as a vehicle for shitting on kdramas, the issue is the attitude of the cdrama posters not the cdramas themselves.
>>223172867>For me its harder to find a good cdrama than it is a good kdramaBig agree. Kdramas have a higher baseline of quality imo. I enjoy cdramas but it really feels like shifting through shit sometimes. It is also really hard to keep up with new/upcoming releases
>>223172923You don't. Western women have been lost to the jews and have become too brainwashed and empowered by feminism.
>>223172953If we can discuss turkdramas, why not include hollywood too?
>>223172575I've seen that one too. Let me know how you feel
>>223172773Did you enjoy Somebody?Did it satisfy your nudity requirements?I fucking loved how she slowly lost herself and at some point gave in to her primal urges.

healing kdramas such as Daily Dose of Sunshine are good for this, consider watching them instead of telling people to off themselves.

Daily Dose of __________
>>223173137YesYes!YES! she was horny non stop and Holy shit she has a lovely body. I hope she gets more roles. I really like her smile more than anything too. the choices they all made (ML FL SFLs) were at times immensely retarded. but at the same time, regarding the women, he's a tall, fit, handsome and charming, he gives them an experience that makes enough of an impact that they don't wan't to just go to the police. and Its shot well, the acting is good, the settings are interesting. the sex scenes do play into the story just because of what actually transpires in each of them and the fact that some of them are discussed which makes them a plot point.
>>223173568The FL's tits looked faker than the cgi boobs from The Glory.
there's nothing to watch in terms of drama kino. other than made in korea i mostly just watched youtube this weekend.
>>223173594the boobs from the glory were fake but actually the actorsit was ass/back that was fake iircfor somebody, I couldn't see any scars, not even on her pits but yeah maybe you're right.
>>223173684>"The name Lee Do Yeon is clearly listed as Choi Hye Jung's body double during the credits at the end of 'The Glory'." After the YouTuber uploaded his video, many believed that the nude body belonged to model Lee Do Yeon.>On March 16, model Lee Do Yeon explained that the nude body was not hers, but it was complete CG. She then shared that she will be taking legal action against all those who continue to spread false information despite the released clarification.https://www.allkpop.com/article/2023/03/cha-joo-youngs-body-double-in-the-glory-confirms-that-the-nude-scenes-were-cg

>>223173683I watched college and nfl football this weekend. A few episodes of The Thorn Birds and What Happens To My Family kdramas
>>223173735Fifteen Years to Wait for Migratory Birds (2016)
>>223173718huh wow what lengths people go to. she is also topless in The Queen Who Crowns (2025) and once again the tits are CG.
When asked what she would want to ask a celebrity if she were an intern reporter, Han Sohee replied, "I’d want to ask when they plan to get married."When asked about her own marriage plans, she said, "I really want to get married before I turn 40. I don't have any fantasies about marriage itself, but I do have a dream of having a baby." She added, "I want to marry someone who is stable. Also, since I have a strong desire to have children, I hope my future husband is genetically handsome for the sake of our offspring," drawing laughter.
>>22317393930 is a more realistic target. why is she aiming a whole decade later.

Waiting room for Chae soo bin next drama!
>>223173718It's funny how the US has the reputation of being lawsuit crazy. I try not to impose my values on Korea but I hate the defamation abuse.
>>223174237Isn't it her turn to cut her hair real short and do a GL drama?
Makes me sad that no one else seems to be watching the same drama as me (Ordinary Jackpot)I guess I'll look for something fun and nice to watch later on. Feel free to recommend me stuff to. I just don't watch cop/detective shows, revenge plots and things that do over the top melo plots.Thanks for reading my post unnie! <3
>>223174388gonna start right now
>>223174388Its in my to watch queue. I just have several ahead of it.
>>223174408Yippie! I'll stay in the thread in case you want to discuss your thoughts on it.>>223174432We can watch at the same time and talk about it though! It's two episodes per week and from MDL it says it's 10 episodes so just 5 weeks. You can even watch it at 1.5x speed so it comes down to 1 hour a week to keep up.
>>223174494wow bonafide killer support character is in it
>>223174364Alternatively, a BL drama is also an option
>>223172208I was watching a little collection of Korean horror short films with family. Only finished the first few so far but it's not bad.https://mydramalist.com/4588-horror-storieshttps://letterboxd.com/film/horror-stories/
I fucking hate thrillerslop and intellectual circlejerk dramas.
>>223174494NTA, but I'm downloading the first episode because of your positivity! (ok I guess it already finished)
I'm starting The Frog
>>223174765like?
>>223174779The Amazon WEB-DLs on AvistaZ have both Viki and Amazon subs btw
>>223174765mousetrap was easy to understand
>>223174765What is the most intellectual drama that you still approve of?
>>223174912My Liberation Notes
>>223174925What? An alcoholic violent pimp jumps a ditch is an intellectual drama.
>>223174925Interesting. Were you also the anti WAATH guy the other day? If so, I would've thought My Liberation Notes and stuff like My Mister would not have been on your list.
>>223174985Yes that was me. My Mister and Liberation Notes came out in a different time so it feels different to me. You can tell they were genuine dramas
My Liberation Notes > My Mister > We Are All Trying Here
I don't actually know of any kdrama that is intellectual
>>223175203Heard It Through The Grapevine
>>223174564Who is that?>>223174779That's great! I watched both episodes on bilibili.
>>223175221Great satire
>>223175307the contract worker
>>223175203I've seen clever ones and ones that don't hold your hand too much, but idk if I'd use "intellectual" to describe any of them
>>223175307Like, just someone's upload of it or did they officially release it on there? If the former, just let me know and I can post links to the higher-quality downloads for the next episode when it comes out>>223174779I planned on watching Jungle Juice tonight, but if anyone wants to start the first episode, I can switch over
wow Hyun Bong Sik cameo in ordinary jackpot
>>223175452>Hyun Bong Sik cameoWasn't planning on watching that but I guess I have to now
>>223175389Same. Okay, very difficult request, but has anyone ever seen a kdrama that they might be able to call "avant-garde" or "experimental"? I want to try a true 'intellectual' drama. Does anything exist where you've wondered how they possibly got the funding for it?
>>223175172same
>>223175528small screen time
>>223172773
>>223175344It is her. You have a good memory!>>223175433Someone's upload. I just search "Ordinary Jackpot ENG Sub" on bilibili and watch the one with the best quality hehe. It's fine because I watched it on my laptop and the quality doesn't matter much unless it's super low and appears blurry but that's not the case. Thanks for offering though! >>223175172>>223175580My goal in life is finding someone willing to pick up my severed head after I was decapitated and my head rolled onto the street.
>>223167815Sons of AnarchyDeleted Bullseye scene from Daredevil
>>223175558the final 25mins of SLine was pretty wild.
>>223175433any car anons? it reminds me of an E38, but I swear the 7 series had a 'sharper' styling back then. Is this like an E36 or something?
>>223175675even the mother in law is in it ep2 lol
>>223176098Maybe the director or writer or producer is the same and they thought hiring people it was comfortable to work with would be best. Happens a lot in media, there is that director that puts Depp in everything he does for example.
>>223175558I was actually thinking about this recently. There's kdramas that are relatively out-of-the-box in one way or another but I can't say I've seen any that I'd truly describe as "weird" let alone "experimental". I've found some unusual premises or striking visual styles out there, but there's always something tethering them to familiar kdrama grounds. Even something as crazy sounding as M really wasn't that wild in execution. Might just have to look harder I guess>Does anything exist where you've wondered how they possibly got the funding for it?I do sorta have an answer for this but not because of it being "intellectual" (it is not, though it may think it is). Freeze. They made that thing with $5 and a really bad dream
>>223176078looks like a 1991 M3 E36
>>223176078E36 318ti?
>>223176324>>223176446Nice, I forgot IMCDb was a thing, but if trustworthy, looks like 1991 E36 of some sort is correct. Is it the sideskirts or something that gives the M3 away? I wonder how common M-series cars were in Korea at the time.https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_1676973-BMW-3-E36-1991.html
>>223176250I'll have to check it out. I'm less interested in literal "intellectual" dramas and more so, like, it feels like with films, we can easily smell the director and/or screenwriter through the screen and you can /easily/ find things that you KNOW was not some A/B-tested committee-written vessel for PPL. Of course, that was harder in the 2010s and even harder in the 2020s, but it's still possible in the more traditional cinema realm. But outside of Park Hae Young's scripts (My Liberation Notes, My Mister, We Are All Trying Here), I can't [personally] think of much where I'm like, "Oh yeah, I can tell a particular person worked on this". And obviously, even hers, while I can tell its her, they're still very conventional [good] stories.I like the k-drama slop, don't get me wrong, but I'd really love to see something with actual soul that doesn't just feel like the next thing pushed by generic streaming-service, you know what I mean?
>>223176651Quilt noona recommended me "Chicken Nugget", which I've yet to try. No idea how it is, but at the very least, the description sounds a little unusual.
>>223176689Is this the one where the FL turns into a chicken nugget?
>>223176756As far as I know, yeah, but I've only seen like the first five minutes lol
>>223176549im no car expert but it has a different radiator grills shape to the e38this promo picture i can't seem to find the model name and its from a fucking official website lol, but note the shape of the air intakes next to the fog lights (the car in the movie is missing its left one) the rims are similar but the movie ones are more concave. not sure if that relates to year or model number. they look more like pic related but pic related has different fog light bumper design.https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/global/photo/detail/P90181329/40-anniversary-bmw-3-series-modelrange-e36-production-1990-1998-05/2015
>>223173939>I don't have any fantasies about marriage itselfwow That's sad. Not a romantic bone in her. She sounds like one of those misandrist korean women.
>>223177444Honestly I think alot of this a cope that many millenials and genz are experiencing. They're scared.
>>223176651Full warning, Freeze kinda sucks on a fundamental level. But the ending...idk how they even came up with that shit. Really a sight to behold.Anyway, definitely get what you mean and that's another thing I think about pretty often. I've always appreciated being able to feel the hand of the creator in a work. And for how many hands are involved in kdramas, while there are some writers/directors whose style I can sense, there's more that are utterly devoid of any personality. Right off some assembly line, nobody had any fun in their creation. I try to think of them as fodder that generates money that can maybe eventually fund those who do it for the love of the game. But even with that copium, there are too many soulless cash-grabs and not enough passion projectsIf you haven't checked out The Affair Was Just The Beginning, I'd highly recommend it
>>223177940Thanks! Yeah, I haven't seen The Affair Was Just The Beginning. Ntl kept going on about the cinematography so I was tempted, though. I'll check it out.>nobody had any fun in their creationYeah, exactly. There's nothing more in the world that I want than to feel like I've been barely invited along for something -- like "I made this for myself, but if you want to watch too, that's fine". I want something where you just know everyone involved enjoyed what they were doing.
>>223178033Doesn't even have to be "good". I'm fine with something that doesn't quite work, but still has soul.
>>223178033>NtlI'm like 99% sure he was not involved in any of the chattering about it. If I got mistaken for him, it might actually be over for meBut yeah>Doesn't even have to be "good". I'm fine with something that doesn't quite work, but still has soul.This is where I'm at too.
>>223177518men need to be worried about marriage, not women. saying stuff like that is what you do after you've taken the misandry pill or had a hundred+ sexual partners. even western college foids who have gangbangs once a week still dream of marriage.
>>223178241Lol, he was definitely going on about it, but I might've confused some of the other posters with him. Sorry!Also, none of these are dramas, but I've been on a film binge, and there's a few that fit my personal criteria if you're ever searching for Korean media. For some context about my preferences, I think my favorite movies are Love Exposure, Survive Style 5+, Fallen Angels, and Why Don't You Play in Hell? (or Monty Python).Most of these aren't "avant-garde" or "experimental", but they do have soul, they aren't A/B tested, you can feel the author, they aren't super-duper well-known.- Resurrection of the Little Match Girl (2002) | https://letterboxd.com/film/resurrection-of-the-little-match-girl/ (intended to be an ultra high-budget blockbuster, but failed commercially and probably should've ended ~45 minutes earlier, but if it isn't visually awesome at times)- Dasepo Naughty Girls (2006) | https://letterboxd.com/film/dasepo-naughty-girls/- Almost Che (2012) | https://mydramalist.com/6283-almost-che- Volcano High (2001) | https://letterboxd.com/film/volcano-high/- Milky Way Liberation Front (2007) | https://letterboxd.com/film/milky-way-liberation-front/- Emergency Act 19 (2002) | https://letterboxd.com/film/emergency-act-19/ (objectively not great, but it's a 6.5/7 that just wouldn't get made now)- Attack the Gas Station!

>>223178925And I've also been watching a lot of Korean short films recently. I like them not only because, often at 20-30 minutes each, you can pack in 4-5 shorts for each feature-length film, but also because they tend to be really premise-heavy and focus on a single element or gimmick that genuinely works.They're great for inspiration and seeing everybody's style:- Digital Video Editing with Adobe Premiere Pro: The Real-World Guide to Set Up and Workflow (2020) | https://letterboxd.com/film/digital-video-editing-with-adobe-premiere-pro-the-real-world-guide-to-set-up-and-workflow/- Influenza (2004) - Bong Joon-ho | https://letterboxd.com/film/influenza/- If You Were Me (2003) | https://letterboxd.com/film/if-you-were-me/ (this one is an awesome anthology with like five or six short films in it.

This one is a series of early digital shorts to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Korean Film Academy. They're very cool as time capsule pieces)I can send links if anyone has any interest.
Wow Suzy has good taste
>>223178925I'm the one who keeps going on about it! All good regardless kekAnyway, thanks for the reccs, will save them for later. I'm not much of a movie guy but I've had my eye on Volcano High for a bit. Heard about the eng dub version awhile back but the wuxia-like premise is even more interesting
>>223179591Oh, wait, did you recommend the mongol-esque c-drama the other day? And yeah, I watched the Korean audio version, which was fun in its own right, but I saw all the English speakers going on about the English dub
>>223179660To The Wonder? Yeah that was me.Whenever I get around to Volcano High, I'll probably watch the korean audio in its entirety but I am curious about that eng dub (Outkast enjoyer)
We all lie
>>223172698>only 5 votersplease respond.
>>223179798I liked it. I'm anti-cuckery, but the other anons have genuine disorders.
>>223157710Yeah, it's quite comfy. I'm enjoying it so far and cannot wait for Season 2.
>>223179929>and then, she went on a date with the new guy and had such a great time>ah, ah, she threw away all the pics of her old bf after that>she'd promised to always treasure him, but that no longer mattered>fap, fap>wait, she left one in their old bedroom>she took the new guy there soon afterwards, brought out the old, framed photo that used to mean so much to her and featured the guy smiling and holding hands with her, turned it facing the bed and made love to the new guy in front of it>fap, fap, fap>she had the greatest orgasm of her life then>the whole thing was so hecking wholesome and anti-cuckery
>>223179778Yeah, that's the one. Hopefully I'll get a chance to try it soon.The outfits in Volcano High were cool and it was fun to see Huh Joon-ho still being perpetually an old man 25 years ago.
>>223172575how'd it go?
>>223171137Checked their website earlier and was honestly surprised by how much they've put out. They're clearly going for quantity over quality kek (not that what they make is bad per se, just really generic and formulaic). I'm hoping we get a break from the formulaic look so many dramas have lately. Into the Ring still stands out to me because it actually tried something a little different for once.
>>223180544yes, as I said, they have disorders such and anime brain, many such cases, sad!!
>>223180606
>>223180792I can't believe I didn't realize
>>223180606>it was fun to see Huh Joon-ho still being perpetually an old man 25 years agoSome things never change! Love that guy though (and also Jang Hyuk). And thanks for the webm, I think I'll be watching this within the next few days
>>223174985Is there more than 1 anti WAATH guy? His face still makes me want to vomit.
>>223175558I've recently watched a white christmas. Probably the most experimental one I watched
>>223181188We only liked him in D.P.
>>223180673They've even produced shit for the US and Japan, very much a "wide as the ocean, deep as a puddle" type approach. In terms of visuals, Made in Korea and The Affair Was Just The Beginning are the only 2 that have stood out to me in recent times
>>223181211I don't remember why, but apparently that one was already on my watch list. Did you enjoy it?
>>223174800Noice!
a while back i asked what to watch after my mister, was told we are all trying here and my liberation notes. absolutely suffered throughout we are all trying here, hated the characters, except for the old lady producer, hated the plot (if you can call it that), hated the dialoguestarted my liberation notes the other day and it instantly clicked and hooked me on the characters' stories. my mister was the same way. i genuinely do not comprehend how everyone seems to agree that we are all trying here is supposed to appeal to fans of the other two. all three are about people i guess? and the people have problems?
>>223181690Probably because it's written by the same person
>>223180544lol
Sky Castle spoilerI can't believe she died :(
I'm starting to come around to the idea that widow stories really are soft ntr.
>>223181690you don't like looking at the mirror that is dong-man, many such cases.
>>223175558I've yet to come across a kdrama that really breaks away from the commercial formula, visually or narratively. Alone in Love is somewhat unique (same writer as White Christmas >>223181211), but I wouldn't call it experimental or particularly intellectually challenging in any way. I suppose film just lends itself better to "real" experimentation, although that does raise the question of why there aren't more miniseries willing to try something different.>>223181227I've heard good things about those two shows, might watch them once I'm done with all the other shit I'm watching/doing currently.
>>223181690filtered.
>>223181690the waath nigga is a waifufag
>>223181188Yes there is. Nasty>>223181823People like dong-man, I've learned, are to be avoided. You don't have to tolerate, placate or negotiate. Its a waste of time for no upside. They cannot exist without a host to suckle. I avoid them like the plague.
>>223182186Gyeong-se, is that you? I'm convinced the WAATHphobes simply cannot handle looking at Gyeongse or Dongman because they see themselves in one of the two.
>>223182136the FL is definitely quite striking, but by the end i was sick of her shit too.
>>223175558Doesn't check most of your boxes but I did wonder how they got funding for Pegasus Market. I love the show btw. I find fertile ground for what you describe with the Japanese
Just finished Sky Castle and it was pretty good.
caring about looks? what are you, a woman?
Wait, the daughter in Sky Castle was unnie from Lovely Runner?
>>223182217I don't see myself in dongman in the least (though we all have demons to manage and not be consumed by them). I've known enough like them, family members and childhood friends, that its best to get the fuck away. You don't win any prize. When I want to save an unfortunate I donate money and even time to those in true need. Not some selfish, arrogant, self destructive fool.
>>223182217it's definitely Gyeong-sego home Gyeong-se you're drunk!!
>>223182287Of course looks matter. What kind of bizarre cope is this? When you watch a show or movie you are looking at people for a long time. They way they look, the way the show is filmed. All of the way it looks is important. Imagine someone looking at you and you have a bunch of boogers hanging from your nostrils. They aren't going to want to see that and you can't just ask incredulously "caring about looks?" When you are gross to look at.
>>223182328do we even watch the same show? He fucking knows he’s a shitty person, a useless piece of shit who gets easily jealous of other people’s achievements because he has nothing going on in his own life. that’s why he copes by doing things that hurt everyone around him, he doesn’t know what else to do. at some point, he even explained to gyeongse why he did that. It’s fucking raw.>>223182361nah you are already biased towards the ml, you don’t even give objective opinions anymore.
>>223182411I'm not even the guy you were arguing with, nor do I care for waath. Im proving a point that what you see does matter.
>>223182411>at some point, he even explained to gyeongse why he did thatliterally every character explained their motivations in extremely ham-fisted monologues
>>223182448
>>223182431again, its subjective. i dont see anything wrong with him. it even enhances his character. also its the best self insert show ever, a shitty person gets a cute loyal gf, and some people here hate it. i dont get it
>>223182359I don't drink nor do illegal drugs nor prescription drugs. Don't need it.Dong-man needs host and if ignored he inserts himself. He want to drag anyone foolish enough to get near him into his own hell and stand on their shoulders. I've seen and heard all the manipulative tactics, yours included.
>posts on 4chan>in the korean drama general>pretends to be some fine upstanding manly man that doesn't have time for people like dong-manoh I'm laffin'yeah okay dude
>>223182592>also its the best self insert show ever, a shitty person gets a cute loyal gf, and some people here hate it. i dont get itWell the other poster was saying they don't like the characters' character. Like you say they're a shitty person. Why are you going to want to self insert as a shitty person. Also like you say subjective. There are many flavours also of shitty people maybe a virgin neet is a shitty person or a conservative family man it doesn't matter, you aren't going to gel or self insert with a character that reminds you of a person or persons that you didn't like.
>>223182411So he has moments of clarity. I'm saying its best to not care if he figures it out or not after 20 years. Its best to avoid people like dongman and surely not consider him a charity case. Hes responsible for his life and I mine. I don't have to open the door when he knocks.
>>223182673>>223182707>>223182729we are just watching some pages of these characters’ lives. its not like he’s done trying to fix himself. its not like Eunha is done with her hatred for her mom. its not like Gyoungse is done with his insecurities. thats why the title dropped. We Are All Trying Here.
>>223182752I think I agree with the other poster. Do you really want to be on the recieving end of a shitty person's actions? No. Sever ties and enjoy a more drama free life. Maybe he becomes tolerable later in life, but I don't care, I've moved on.
>>223182752>he’s done trying to fix himselfThe thing is its not required of me to stand there as he lashes out in the hope he figures it all out. I'm also saying real life experience has taught me they almost never do and will bite your extended hand. If you want to do it fine but not me. I'll extend my helping hand to those in real need.
>>223182832watching a character in a television show isn't having that person in your actual life. some of you all confuse characters in fiction with real life I think, you know you can like something even if the characters are doing something you don't like or approve of right?
>>223182873Why take this back handed swipe and assume anyone that disagrees with your take so stupid they cannot separate a show and real life and in need of a good correcting. Sounds like dongman
>>223182913because that's the way you're posting. there's a similar pattern with all the cuckoldry nonsense posters, they feel like if a woman or a character in a show does something they don't like they have to hate the show or it's a reflection on them personally.
>>223182873I'm not the one that bought up self inserts. Which is the action of applying your real self to a character. >you know you can like something even if the characters are doing something you don't like or approve of right?Everyone knows this. It's like a villain in a show people can like because even if their actions are reprehensible they are good at what they do. as opposed to a villain that does bad stuff but has no charm or completely pathetic. That actor played a very capable and reprehensible villain in "colony". I can respect the character. But playing a whiny parasite in this show is not a good character.
>>223182832>>223182855shitty person’s actions? again, do we even watch the same show? what kind of shitty things did he even do to Eunha, that one guy from his group of eight, or that step daughter actresses. i think aside from trash talking movies, he’s just a normal guy. he even stated that if you are nice to him, he will be nice to you and hopes you have a great day
>>223182972why not? was he not a convincing "whiny parasite" to you? because it seems like he was considering you're getting so worked up over the character and having such a visceral reaction to him.
>>223182925>they feel like if a woman or a character in a show does something they don't like they have to hate the showIf you don't like a characters actions in a show, it's ok to dislike a show. There is nothing wrong with that. Why is that so controversial to you? Do you like it when characters do a bunch of violent shit to each other? No. Ok then you don't have to like the show.
>>223182998Wow you're finally getting it. He's a disgusting character, we don't like him and now you know why. But for some reason you want to not only defend him but self insert as him.
>>223183046>>223182998because you missed the context, speedwatcher-kun. you missed the whole point of the show because you already hated the character from the start
Which football team employs this faggot to constantly move goalposts?
>>223182925So you're saying I'm posting wrong? Not to your liking? Do I need your approval for my opinion? That why you are upset? And just when did I even mention anyone other character than dongman? Is he female?
>>223183073>Muh context, you missed the point! My point btw not anyone elses point. I have media literacy you see!Ok now you're just being lazy
if my pastor wouldn't like the characters I won't watch the showkeeps me safe from the devil
>>223183095the problem here is unlike dong-man with his 1000 open doors that make him an interesting person, you have 1 barely cracked open door and have a meltdown if anything tries to get in it that's not on your strict allowed list.
>>223183180You relate to this guy and you have clearly expressed your over inflated sense of self worth on numerous occasions. So attacking his character is like it's a personal attack on you.
>>223183180>you have 1 barely cracked open door and have a meltdown if anything tries to get in it that's not on your strict allowed list.All projection.
>>223183217yes I agree agree you project your insecurities on to many kdramas and characters that's why you hate more of them than you like.
>>223183123this but my shaman instead
>>223183246>I agree you project your insecurities on too many Western shows and characters that's why you hate more of them than you like.
>>223183291is that all you could muster out from the tiny crack in your singular door?
>>223183208
>>223183337thankyou for your concession. your arguments are always swiss cheese.
>>223183344damn bro no wonder you can relate. buffalo bill over here.
>>223183354uh huh, see that's what makes me interesting and you boring, I can lean into the bit for some fun, you're such a tight wad you have to take everything deadly seriously or else you think you're some kind of moral failure. Park Gyeong-se.
>>223183208Delusions of grandeur both the character dongman and John. Time and again he'll screech from the street and throw rocks through windows when he doesn't have his way. He is the dongman and to be shunned not placated. The unfortunate thing is no civil exchange of opinion can exist in his thread if it differs from his own. This is known already yet dongman refuses to learn anything.
>>223183399most people here watch a more varied selection than you. its so bizarre how highly you value yourself. you only lean into this character because you relate to it, self insert.
rip noona Yuri Nakamura
>>223183399>that's what makes me interesting and you boringtell me about your vibrant social life and network of friends. tell me about the girl you got whilst acting like dongman
still waiting for my eunha
>>223183399another spittle drenching rant by the dongman
>>223183484social popularity is not correlated with interestingness, many times the opposite actually but not always of course.
>>223183558>words words wordsso...
>>223183596>>223183530
>>223183613>>223183484
>>223183596so which is it is 4chan for edgelord social rejects or well adjusted normal gf havers? because you seem to flip flop between the two depending on who you're attacking at any particular moment.
>>223183624I don't know who you think I am. you make so many so many assumptions. And you misrepresent so many arguments. Its actually impressive. >you're such a tight wad you have to take everything deadly seriously or else you think you're some kind of moral failurewhat a weird mischaracterization after i mentioned villains who do reprehensible things being respectable if they're capable.
you just like well played bad villains because you could see yourself being a bad person like them no problem, whereas well played "whiny parasites" terrify you because that's actually what you're constantly worried about, being some kind of social reject.
the first is a power fantasy, the second your insecurities
>>223183726>>223183726>you just like well played bad villains because you could see yourself being a bad person like them no problemi don't even self insert as these either. (do you always need to self insert when you watch a show?) a good villain is one who got to where they were by hard work and when facing the "hero" they don't just melt into nothing instantly. they are strong or cunning and maybe in another life they would have been the hero. You can at least respect a worthy opponent. not some whiny fag. the whole shit about social rejects, terrify all of this is more mischaracterization.
wtf is this shounen shit? are we talking about the same show?
a love other than yours won love triangle kdg doty
>>223183870the way to described villains is proving my point that it's a power fantasy for you, which is why you don't have the same visceral reaction to those characters like you do characters like dong-man or any number of others because you can see yourself or possible situations you might actually find yourself in.
>>223183939im trying to speak in simple terms for john to understand but he keeps acting like cathy newman "uh so what ur sayin is this" and its completely wrong each time.its very simple you have a character that is a whiny fag. people dont like him because he is pathetic and parasitical. john doesn't understand that he isn't pleasant because john relates to this character and john sees himself as very likeable. this position that we have makes john assume we can't relate to anyone that is unpleasant or that we are somehow lacking some empathy or some media literacy or that we're rigid conservatives. all mischaracterizations. Its weird that he thinks its good to lean into a shitty character because its there to lean into. this doesn't mean he has some great intellect. does he sit in fields and lean into cowshit just because it's there? no. or does he?

For some reason I've been following kdg much less the last week or two. It's a bit sad, and I feel disconnected since kdg were my only friends.
>>223184160>muh insecure>muh parasite>muh whiny>muh weakgee wiz i want to be just like him! btw i love woody allen!
neck and neck.
>>223184171please make friends outside of here. go volunteering. go join some sort of social walking/running group, join a gym, go do something where you can meet people. please anon.
>>223184196bad poll, two dislike options are leading with subjective conclusions.
>>223184196good poll, three dislike options give nuance to the results.
>>223184202The problem is that watching drama is the only thing I enjoy, so it's difficult to meet people and make friends since I share none of their interests.
>>223184185you're like a meathead bully character in an after school special except at least they usually at least learn a lesson at the end about how they've just been projecting their insecurities on to the their victims.
>>223184105i watched the first episode of this show. It's really is a boys over flowers clone kek1st ep is entertaining enough
>>223184250its the only thing you 'currently' enjoy. you go out and try new things and maybe you'll enjoy new things. you took the leap to try out kdramas after all. When you go and do something like joining a club or or volunteering, usually your group will have things to do and goals to achieve. so you don't necessarily have to talk about a great deal aside from what you're doing. also talking to people and listening to what they do and trying to have some interest in their things is good. they'll try to have at least some interest in yours at least to keep the conversation flowing. maybe you'll interest them in your kdramas and maybe they'll interest you in whatever they're into.
>boys over flowers clonethere's only 1 good boys over flowers clone, meteor garden starring the park bo young of china shen yue
>>223184329rip she died so young
>>223184329Didn't her co-star in another drama talk badly about her?
>>223184254>you're like a meathead bully characternope. but things in this world don't get done by whiney weak people, man or woman its those who are brave or cunning, who persevere, who break through and ignore their insecurities. those are the ones who make change.
>>223184322I tried that before. Even did the whole meetups thing. My inability to connect with people just left me more depressed. I'm just messed up. There's no hope for me.
We prefer cinderella and the four knights here
>>223184367further proving my point
>>223184340what>>223184362idk I don't really keep up with her like park bo young
>>223184464are you an aspie? did you just not care about the other people at all? did you want to only talk about kdramas the whole time non stop? I mean not everyone is pleasant either, i've volunteered with people i dont like, one guy will not shut up about gaza, its like arguing with john here. do you go out for walks, or even exercise in your domicile? do you get the heart racing, the blood pumping at least? i would dance to music (badly) if i was ever indoors for weeks at a time. it was better than nothing. There are people out there for you to connect with im sure of it. hell maybe befriending internet people is the first step.
>>223184505barbie hsu. the orginal boys over flower (meteor garden)
>>223184086Excellent. Well put
>>223184539I wouldn't trust her, Taiwan isn't a real country.
damn my watchlist is shortordinary jackpotmade in korea s2a love other than yours
>>223184491>proving my pointwhat point are you trying to make? that i respect those that aren't whiney over those that are and that to do so is some sort of power fantasy?and yes everyone who gets shit done is a meathead bully. simply ask your father whether its better to be weak and whiney or strong and courageous.
>>223184545>t. peanut gallery
>>223184523I am an aspie, yes, and I do find it hard to care what they're talking about. But I don't try to talk about anything nonstop because I never have anything to talk about and assume no one wants to hear it even if I did
>>223184583Not so fast dongman. I was one of the anons you took issue with while discussing dingdongman. Real life took me away from here for 30 minutes
>>223184583so bizarre. once again people who had differing opinions to you resulted in you making personal attacks on them. how can you be so deluded?
>>223184598fair enough, i struggle to care too at times, though im not an aspie, its probably just depression for me. are there any other online places to talk to other people about kdramas at least? then you can find others that aren't just anons to chat with.
