Any parents in Kdramas that you didn’t like?

Are there any parents in Kdramas that you didn’t really like the most like yeah they could be caring at some point but you don’t like on how they treat their children in some way?

I’ll start for me I didn’t like the FL’s mom in Love Next Door she’s quite controlling in a way and sometimes she’s not very supportive too like the time when the FL suddenly found her passion to cook and she was so mean to her about it. She’s a bit selfish too in a way because she often uses her overall success to be bragged about in her mom’s friend group when deep down the FL was literally struggling especially during her time in the US/ending things with her fiance.

I also didn’t like Sieun’s mom in Weak Hero cause she literally emotionally neglected him and then once he finally had friends (like in S2) she shifted blame on them when he got into a slight coma like he literally felt like being in a family with his friends more than with her in a way.

What about you are there any parents in Kdramas you didn’t really like

Whoever said that Wooseok and IU have no chemistry are lying to themselves cause this kiss scene got me screaming and giggling my feet🤭🤭

When I tell you I was literally on my “am I interrupting something moment” during this kiss scene in the recent episode of Perfect Crown the kiss is just intense probably one of the best kisses so far in the series and this is probably Wooseok’s most intense kiss in his drama he really ate her up 😭😭😭😭😭😭

One thing I can critique about this scene is just the ost playing like don’t get me wrong the song is actually really good though very majestic, but why play it on that scene I could barely even hear the smooches cause the hooting and hollering of the vocals are overpowering it lol.

Anyways this kiss really made me feel so giddy in a way🤭🤭🤭

I think I finally found Huiju’s male counterpart 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Starting to watch My Royal Nemesis and it’s really so fun and enjoyable to watch and it’s a such a nice shift to watch after all the chaos going on in Perfect Crown. I love on how creative the casting directors did with this drama cause all the leads look very intimidating and did play villainous roles in the past and putting them in a romcom drama together it’s just perfect in a way.

Anyways I find Cha Segye the ML so Huiju coded like obviously he’s a chaebol and a CEO of a beauty company but also very short-tempered, a bit “standoffish” I even notice one of Huiju’s workers also work for him in this drama it’s so Huiju. He’s also gonna fall in love with a royalty as well similar to Huiju like😭😭😭😭😭

What’s even funnier is that the ML did have a cameo in Perfect Crown as Huiju’s blind date but didn’t work out and I understood why cause he is also like her 😭😭😭😭😭

Anyways are you enjoying this drama lately has anyone think that he’s also like Huiju too?

Why are groups usually not allowed to openly talk about former members after they leave?

I’ve been thinking about this lately especially with the topics of certain members leaving in Kpop groups like when that member leaves suddenly the remaining members of that group become quite hesitant or silent to mention that member at all, even if they were obviously very close before. Like you know when a member does a live they look nervous, change the subject quickly, or act like they’re trying not to say the former member’s name despite still being labelmates sometimes.

Does anyone know why?

Is it something that was written in their contracts in when the X member parts ways with the group, the other members shouldn’t mention them? Or is it more of the company’s decision in a way which I find kinda baffling if at times the former member is still in the company (eg Seunghan with Riize, Heesung with Enhypen). Or is it a choice the company specifically makes to avoid any controversy, akward questions, legal stuff or fanwars? I also sometimes wonder if companies try to market the group as being “better off” moving forward, even if the members themselves still care about that person and aren’t fully okay emotionally. I mean I do see some cases in where there are many groups who are still in close contact with their former members (eg Ikon with BI, Treasure with Mashiho, Astro with Rocky, etc, etc)

So what do you think why do members stay silent about their former member?

Perfect Crown: I find the budding romance between the secretaries really cute

I know that the recent episode was quite stressful to watch with all the things that are happening I also got blood pressure too watching this episode I hope they clear things out in the next one coming later and not drag the whole thing out since it’s about to end in a way.

But anyways I found the budding romance between the two secretaries actually so adorable in a way and every time I see scenes of them together it makes me feel relieved and kinda helps reduce the stress in watching the overall episode. I wonder how the writers will try to develop their overall romance given that there’s like 3 episodes left, but overall I enjoy the scenes with them a lot and I feel like they match perfectly!!

What are your thoughts do you think the secretaries are cute too?

Why is the “holding accountable” phrase mostly used for Kpop idols compared to other celebrities

(Note I am asking this out of curiosity I am in no way defending actions of what x idol is doing I’m just asking a very important question especially in these times right now)

I know celebrities in general are flawed people and can do problematic things. When I say celebrities that also includes idols, actors, athletes, influencers any public figure in general they all at least do get involved in controversies at some point.

But I’m observing that the phrase “holding them accountable” often shows up when it comes to Kpop idols most specifically.

Like whenever an idol does a controversial thing there’s always topics like “they need to be held accountable”, “stop excusing their actions”, “fans defend them so much” etc, etc and it’s often used on them the most compared to what is said to other celebrities especially in the international scene.

So I’m wondering why that difference exists.

Is it because fandoms are very defensive especially with those things leading others to emphasize accountability more strongly?

Or maybe it’s because of the influence of “cancel culture” dynamics and also like fanwars , in where some people aren’t just reacting to the issue itself but also to other fandoms’ reactions, turning it into a kind of moral competition about who is worse or who is being excused.

I’m not saying this to take sides or anything I’m just wondering why that term is often used the most?

What are your overall thoughts on the whole situation going on with Minghao rn especially as a Carat?

So you know what’s going on with Minghao and his like DJ set that he played like a song with a Muslim chant to it (please correct me if I’m wrong cause I’m not from that belief) the song with that chant was from another artist in which I do think it’s still wrong in a way so I’m kinda wondering what are your thoughts about it especially as a Carat who is from that belief?

I know Carats are a nice, kind and peaceful fandom (coming from experience) and I know they handle those types of situations really well so how will this be approached in a way? Does any of the members or him have like fan meetings or other events so that could make him kinda be aware on what’s going on to make sure he doesn’t do it again in a way?

Why are most Kpop songs lately 2 minutes long?

I’m noticing that most kpop songs specifically from Hybe the most their songs are shorter than like 2 minutes does anyone know why?

Is it because of requirements from radios or other streaming services like it should reach this time constraints or other things?

What I mean by opposite is you know in typical dramas the ML is always the nonchalant cold type and doesn’t do anything and the FL is the bubbly type? Are there Kdramas that at the opposite like the ML is the bubbly one and the FL more reserved or nonchalant?

I think the drama that I know so far is Twinkling Watermelon and Spirit Fingers

Any other reccomendations

Drama: Last Summer

Since I’m keeping up with my series on why this drama is disliked we have another one that I often see being talked about a lot which is this drama Last Summer and does anyone know why?

I’ve always heard about the term “good actor poor script choices” in Jae-Wook a lot and this drama is always brought up so why wasn’t it good?

Was it because there’s a miscommunication trope there I heard there is one with the twin brother? Was there a pacing problem with the show or the leads didn’t have chemistry or the writing felt very weak or flat.

I’m not talking about their tracks such as Fantastic Baby or Bang Bang Bang those are great hits, what I’m talking about is their earlier tracks such as Sunset Glow, Lies, Gararago and Haru Haru.

Are there Kpop songs similar to the styles they had in their earlier songs? If so I would love reccomendations

So you know the scene in where Sejun calls Mirae again after a long time since they broke up and we all know it was that time before Sejun gets married and though, it kinda catches a lot of people off guard including me and it’s also that type of scene in where anyone can interpret it in a different way, how do you interpret this scene in a way?

Do you see it as him lowkey regretting on how things ended with him and Mirae cause you know it was based on how things changed in a way? The way he talked to her during that call and after the call he sighed like he was carrying unresolved emotions. Even if he always loved his fiancée first, maybe a part of him still cared about Mirae in a way he never fully confronted. I also noticed he looked kind of affected when he realized Mirae deleted his number from her phone.

Or do you interpret it as him trying to apologize in a way cause before that his fiance sent the wedding invitation in the group chat in where Mirae was in and he was bothered by it (which is valid cause I’d also feel the same way too if my own fiance sends our wedding invitation in where my ex is in) because the fiance is quite petty in a way maybe he wanted to apologize for that especially dragging Mirae into the situation in where Mirae doesn’t even want to kinda deal with it anymore.

Or maybe the call was more about a little closure for himself. Since Sejun is about to get married maybe he didn’t want to carry all those unresolved things that involve Mirae anymore. But it was more of a hard thing for Mirae since she had to go to the college simulation after the call to confront those emotions.

I know that the story is mostly on Mirae’s pov so we only see how she feels about the situation.

I know it’s those types of scenes in where anyone could see differently so I was wondering, how do you interpret it?

I know this is Jaewook’s new drama premiering next month during the time he’ll be in the military (nooooo). So I was wondering, to those who have read the webtoon is the plot of it actually good and will it kinda give Jaewook the chance to “redeem himself” in a way? Like I know that he often gets critiqued a lot with his overall script choices and do you think the plot of the webtoon will actually be convincing in a way?

I mean it’s not his first time doing a role that’s in the medical field cause he did that before in his cameo as the doctor bf in BOD which was really fun in a way he does great with any roles.

So what are your thoughts especially those who read the webtoon of this first?

I know that his new drama is a webtoon adaptation that is coming around next month and it’s another one that’s also one of his next romance projects after BOD that is also set in the workplace (a lot of his romance projects lately are always in a workplace setting lol). So I was wondering to those who read the webtoon that is based on, is the plot actually good? Like, is it worth getting into before the drama comes out?

know some people prefer reading the original webtoon first and sometimes have strong opinions about adaptations, so I wanted to hear your thoughts. Does the story hold up, or is it one of those where the drama might actually improve it?

I know the recent game is very popular and I’ve seen many fans make their fave groups as mii’s in the game and also adding some silly and fun stuff with the characters they made so I was wondering has there been an idol who is also playing the game and doing the same thing as well (eg also making custom characters of their members, etc)?

So far the idol who I know who is playing Tomodachi life is Gehlee from Unis anymore reccomendations?

I know that a lot of music show performances are pre-recorded and usually in those pre-recorded stages there are often fans who are always doing the fanchants, showing “spoilers” on how the full choreo of the song looks like or the outfits of the group in that stage and also like the gifts and freebies the group prepared to give to the fans and stuff so I was wondering how do the K-fans and also fansites get access to those recordings?

Do you need to apply somewhere or get a ticket? Is it based on official fanclub membership? Like do companies post notices where you can register, or is it more of a first-come-first-serve situation?

I wanna know your experiences especially to those fans who went to prerecordings before

I’ve been thinking about this a lot especially with the topics of debut works of the writer and I’m thinking about this not just because I’m being biased or anything even though it’s my fave drama this year I just wanna know your thoughts.

I’ve been observing that most romcom releases especially this year are all debut works of the writers and BOD is also one of them. I know that stuff like that could feel like a “risk path” for actors choosing scripts in a way and other times it leans too heavily on familiar K-drama clichés (love triangles, dragged misunderstandings, etc.).

I know that the VR bf concept caught a lot of people off guard in a way I mean I still found a lot of the dates fun like the cameos in the 4th episode. But I actually liked how some of them had depth and even mirrored the real-life situations of the FL in a meaningful way. For example, the college simulation paralleling the female lead’s past with her ex made it more interesting. Even on how fleshed out the characters Eunho and Yeongil actually were great tools for the character development of Mirae on how both of them helped her work through her inner conflicts.(eg how Eunho helped her deal with the stuff around her ex and Yeongil helping her explore her feelings for Kyungnam so she can be ready to love again in the real world despite the risks). Even with how the ex storyline is written it’s even showing that some breakups never end in cheating or stuff like that but growing apart.I really liked that more grounded perspective. Even with those depths they still made it quite light even with most creepy elements there.

I know I have a lot of things to say and of course, since it’s a debut, there are definitely areas that could be improved.
But overall I liked on how it was a nice refreshing shift

So what are your thoughts do you think BOD is a decent written romcom for a debut writer?

It’s been a long time since I did a post on my disliked drama series and I have a series in where it’s not that much talked about yet and it is Would You Marry Me and I’ve seen a lot of negative reviews on this show and I was wondering why?

Was it because of the childhood connection trope which seems okay for me I found it a bit cute or was it on how they dragged out too much of the ML’s accident backstory? I know another thing that kinda caught me a bit off guard was how the writers were giving her annoying ex like too much screen time and stuff so was that also the reasons why it was disliked? Or was it the miscommunication parts of it like on how the ML’s uncle was involved the FL’s accident?

I notice that this drama is getting a lot of witchunts for some reason and people are acting like IU and Wooseok killed their grandma or something which is crazy and everyone over analyzing the dancing scene saying they lacked chemistry, etc etc so I was wondering, am I the only person enjoying this drama lately? Like they look good together, it’s very funny and the royalty stuff around it is so interesting and majestic I even find all the side characters entertaining especially the king and their assistants.

The osts are also so nice too especially the My Pace song it’s so catching I play this song on repeat.

I know that people will have opinions on it, that’s fine but am I the only one enjoying this and literally get excited every weekend to watch?
