i can count with my hands how many korean male actors i can tolerate and every time i think i added a new one to the list they always get exposed for something problematic… i also just don’t find them entertaining to watch 🤷🏽♀️

engaging with kdrama twitter community means unfortunately having to see the faces of all these kr male actors i cannot stand now... (either bc of weird shit that they've said before that gave me the ick or i just don't vibe with them) (to be fair i don't like 99.99% of men)

this is how you do comedy dramas

if it was a critique on her acting then whatever but op said they haven’t watched anything of hers after so?? not being able to separate from her character strips the actress of their own identity. you think saying “ruined her innocent whimsical beauty” isn’t weird?
ٰ@indoiea
i didn't think of it that way because psychologically i understand seeing something or someone and having that image be so strongly connected to a memory. it doesn't mean the viewer doesn't respect the actor, but if they don't act or look different enough (voice inflection or
English
then why comment on her beauty? it’s disrespectful to an actor&their artistry to not be able to separate them from their character, it diminishes their skills. this mentality & types of twts strips them of their own identity & creates a space for hate towards the actor. do better

She is a great actress. The first drama i watched of her was The Glory. Sometimes some characters traumatise you so bad esp when you yourself have faced bullying. It wasn’t against her. It was about the impact of the character she played.

@adi_emmanuella and that’s the point she portrayed a CHARACTER. not being able to separate is disrespectful to her and her artistry bc it minimizes her hard work outside that character and can take a toll on her mentally by reading shit like what op said “ruined her innocent whimsical beauty”
English
@blushnayeon From the glory character doesn’t mean we don’t respect her “artistry” rather still it’s shows how good she portrayed such character.. plus you don’t knw her on a personal level to vouch for her.
English
is this not a weird thing to say?

The Glory ruined her innocent whimsical beauty for me.
English
@adi_emmanuella this is just not true lol, the ml’s hate on his looks comes from ppl upholding beauty standards not bc he looks evil, ppl are literally making sexy edits of his past evil character. also this just isn’t the same as saying you can’t watch an actress bc of her previous character
English
@blushnayeon You mentioned them not hating on the men who played villain role that’s a lie tho,the male lead of series she’s acting in currently has been made fun of of his looks and how he looks like a villain… it’s not just her. Also just because we can’t separate —
English
@adi_emmanuella it’s not about loving her or even liking her, it’s about respecting her as an actress and being able to separate the actor from the character… if you can’t do that then that means you can’t respect her or her artistry, that’s what I’m getting at
English
@blushnayeon Well… that’s not what am getting on
I didn’t talk bad about her looks, she’s no doubt pretty but you just got to accept that not everyone will love her.
English
@adi_emmanuella my problem with ppl saying this is bc usually it’s only actresses that they feel this way about & they make comments about physical appearance saying she looks like an “evil person” or that her personality is probably like that in real life, that shits rude
English
@blushnayeon Not really… I understand her
tbh it’s just majority of us that can’t watch her in another kdrama is not just because of her character in “The Glory” still hunts us but also because that’s basically THE FIRST KDRAMA of hers I’ve watched so it’s basically not easy

@jshoonlvr yeah im not entirely sure but i do know they have specific names for aunt and uncle depending on which side of the family they’re from
English
so mundo is the nephew of segye’s grandfather making him segye cousin, he referred to him as hyung because any older male can be referred to as a hyung, it doesn’t have to be an real older brother
ruby⁵⁵⁵@jshoonlvr
I'm still so confused about his family where is his mother idek his dad was dead what happened to them and if he calls mundo hyung why does mundo call grandfather uncle... what is happening who is mundo's parents WHY IS IT SO COMPLICATED
English
@jshoonlvr in my culture we kinda do that too but if we’re discussing a family tree then they would be called what they technically are “parents cousin” or “1st cousin once removed”… i think because segye and mundo are close in age & he isn’t his parents sibling, he refers to him as hyung
English
@blushnayeon in my culture, we call our parents' cousins uncle aunts too. not just parents' siblings, so I'm obv confused
English
@jshoonlvr no, mundo is not segye’s uncle… for him to be segye’s uncle he would have to siblings with segye’s parents which he is not, did you not see the pic I made?
English
@blushnayeon yes so mundo is segye's uncle whom he calls hyung for idk what reason 🥀
English
@jshoonlvr this might make it easier to understand, idk which of segye’s or mundo’s parent is related to the grandfather or the grandmother but yeah
