Ok so even if I tried to ignore the icky age gap at the start and the sexualizing of high school girls, there is still a character whose name should just be “cultural appropriation”:))))) I don’t think it’s ok to just let this show slide since it’s “not as bad you thought it was gonna be” or because your fave is in it. It’s highly offensive and just because you have the privilege to ignore the racist elements does not make the show ok! I’m sorry if this post pisses people off but it’s 2020, we shouldn’t have to put up with these tropes anymore

imagine being in the middle of a BLM movement and going “actually, a non black person having dreadlocks is not racist”

backstreet rookie makes melting me softly look like a decent drama I am asdhjsjs

I understand why the age gap makes people feel uncomfortable in Backstreet Rookie, but everyone loved Goblin, even though it was about an immature high school girl that got with a 400+ year old male. Yes, you can argue that he’s not human which makes it somehow okay, but nonetheless, the story is still about a minor having a relationship with an older male. Please explain to me how that is okay.

It’s not ok. I’m sorry, was I supposed to tell you how it is ok, because I cannot do that.

I will never be cool with an adult in their late 20s or older cast romantically with a minor. Even when the young actor is older IRL (the goblin actress was 26), it still gives a creepy power imbalance grooming thing and kinda romanticizes it. To be fair I was one of the hypocrites who loved Goblin because they didn’t get together till she was older and it was so not based in any sort of reality, but still, looking back it’s wrong and they should have changed the story to make her older.

Our lead kisses him in backstreet rookie as a high school student without any consent (also not cool). However I do feel like the show plays up “look how pretty she is! Isn’t it hard not to like this hot child?” Ew.

What’s really weird though is barely anyone is even flinching at the racist character? I really hope it bothers people as much as the other issue.

Nothing unites the Kdrama community quite like a trash drama.

a few people seem confused as to why people are so disgusted by Backstreet Rookie 

“but you watched Goblin and I Hear Your Voice” you say in a gotcha tone

so lets go over the webtoon this lovely drama is based off:

they meet, she gets him to buy her cigarettes squeezing his arm into her chest - he “looks” mad but he gives in 

as a thank you, she kisses him - to which he responds by weirdly flapping his tongue…

*vomits*

he goes home….and thinks about her

he was supposedly mad before, but whats the last thing he does before we get to the 3 year time jump? 

he jacks off.

so yes, perhaps the age gaps in IHYV or Goblin weren’t preferable - but last i checked neither were about the sexualisation of a 17 y/o and a 29 y/o man who gets off thinking about her.

the director literally had to say the drama is “far from the point of concern in the original work” - he knows what his source is, he knows its disgusting and frankly if you ask me, him trying to take such a story and making it “family friendly” is him normalising such disgusting behavior (“oh its an innocent love” kind of thing)

It's such a treat. One of the best season finales I ever watched

There are things left unanswered but we have the second season for that!!

I always admire Ikjun's ability to feel and empathise with anyone. I was really touched with what he did to his patient's family and especially their kid.

Songhwa suddenly became a life counselor and I like what she said to Jeongwon (and yes that ment at the end!) I was hoping to hear her answer to the confession tho.

For Junwan. I was expecting this couple to be caught and/or I was expecting him to confess to Ikjun.

On Seokhyeong. His father is really a jerk, I hate him. But on the side note, as an introvert I can relate to his worries. Moreover, that phone call at the end, I did not expect that. I was really hoping to see who called him!

And the scene that made me squeal endlessly I had to muffle my noise with pillow. WINTER IS HERE. WINTER GARDEN WINS! I was so happy with their scene! It's such a treat I'm crying!

And with that Hospital Playlist Season 1 ended. Thursdays will not be the same again until 2021 😭😭😭

I know it’s not my place to say but can you please stay at the hospital instead of becoming a priest?

I understand this is Mama Rosa’s Hail Mary (literally & figuratively) but this is a terrible position to put Gyeo-wool in. Jung-won needs to stay because that’s what he comes to realize is best for him.

I trust Hospital Playlist will do right by my best girl and for Winter Garden.

I knew I'd love you the day we first met.
