I volunteer my fanwall for the Rowoon’s fans vs. Cha Eun Woo’fans (almost wrote Eun-whatever) rivalry fights so that we keep the recap space clean. Full disclosure: I am not a fan of either.

    Sometimes I think a block function is what we need. I can block those accounts that cannot take constructive criticism of a actor show they like.
    (I like both actors but I’m not a fan of either. I’m more than willing to watch their shows if the story piques my interest).

      I have seen some of Rowoon’s dramas but none of the Cha Eun Woo’s ones. WW I skipped because I avoid shows that focus on the grief after a child’s death.
      Block is a solution for some but I am not 100% behind it. Through dialogue and communication we change.

        Good luck on your mission💪🏾 We will be here for you when you reach the other side. My understand is that the fans don’t waste their time being active for dramas their bias is not in so things will be quiet until the next drama staring either actor.

        WW I skipped because I avoid shows that focus on the grief after a child’s death.

        I dropped it after episode 2 for the same reason.

        Through dialogue and communication we change.

        In general I agree with you. But sometimes some people are just not worth my time.

        @Kodra Rowoon is quite terrible, but he is still a head taller than Cha Eun Woo, literally and figuratively. But it’s magnanimous of you to offer your wall.

          I don’t know if it’s magnanimous, it’s just that I think that my wall is not very popular. Nobody reads it 🤣 So I offered it so people can have a place to write their frustrations in this “fight” and it will be somehow hidden from everyone. We cannot stop them but we can accommodate them. It is ongoing and will not stop, Cha Eun Woo will make dramas and this will be a repeating cycle. Rowoon’s fans will keep on criticize anything he is in repeatedly, sometimes non-stop, so the emotions will fly high. Neither will stop, that is just one of the facts of life on DB.

            Are you talking about me?

            Because the fact I didn’t specially like Wonderdul World is not related to the fact I like Rowoon’s acting, neither the fact I’m not a fan of CEW’s acting. There was no fan’s fight in the comments section, so your comment is useless in the first place.

            I like some actors and I don’t like other ones. I don’t think I need Beanies’s approuval for that.

            @Kurama I’m sorry to be speaking without being asked. I don’t think Kodra was talking about you. Anyway, I don’t recall seeing Rowoon’s fans acting like CEW’s fans on DB, so I just supposed I missed that part. I haven’t watched Rowoon’s recent shows, thus I didn’t frequent those shows’ recaps and discussions.

            Your opinions on Wonderful World are totally valid (not that you need anyone’s confirmation of that, I know) and I saw no ill intention in your comments (not that you need anyone’s confirmation of that, either). But because I didn’t watch the show, I felt it was futile for me to chime in the discussion under the recap. I meant to say I believe many beanies like me knew that your opinions are valid and you didn’t need anyone’s approval of that. But some other ones’ comments (who seem to only show up for CEW’s shows to pour down praises for his acting from the very first episode when he hadn’t appeared much on the screen) have certain parts that went against DB’s spirit, and that was what bothered us.

            I’m the only one who didn’t really like the drama in the comments and because of that I got a lof of angry CEW’s fans who came to me. I don’t hide I like Rowoon’s acting. But I don’t see how these things are related

            So I don’t understand the comment about Rowoon’s and CEW’s fans who need her space to fight?

            Please, believe me that was not intended at you at all. If it was, I would tell you, you know that I am straight forward and don’t shy to say what I think. I think that you are a drama slayer, you “cut” through dramas left and right, and I like that about you, that you always speak your mind. Some that do not know this about you, might feel that you have a bias.
            My statement was based on my observation since I have been here, on DB. Whether is true or not, I don’t know, but it is mine and I stand with it. It feels like to me that more of Rowoon’s fans don’t like Cha Eun Woo’s dramas even before the dramas air, even though there are plenty of beanies that are not fans of Rowoon that do not like his acting. But I wouldn’t put you in that category because, as I said, you are slaying a lot of dramas not just Cha Eun Woo’s. My comment had multiple meanings: it was a meant to diffuse the argument and it was an allert that this kind of behavior should not happen, specially at recaps. As you can see, nobody came and used my space but the comments stopped after that. It might have been a coincidence, but they did stop. I do like free speech and I am not the one to tell anyone not to make any comments, so my invitation was not really a real one. If people choose to make personal attacks I think everyone would judge the person who makes the attack and not the one the attack was made at. You know I have been in your shoes a couple of months ago and, if I might add, nobody here supported me. Beanies still have a bias against me, some really believe that I am a Qanon sympathizer and all because I have expressed my beliefs about a drama you guys adore. But even so, I specifically did not make those comments in the recaps or review page because I knew that emotions fly high when a drama is airing or just finished and I really did not want to upset beanies more than I knew I did. But it was just a very sensitive subject to me and I had to say it.

            Except there are not really Rowoon’s fans on dramabeans more than other actor’s fans.

            There are a lot of people who don’t like CEW’s acting, it’s not related to Rowoon. I’m pretty sure the majority doesn’t like both.

            Your comment didn’t do anything because CEW’s fans don’t use dramabeans, they just comment on CEW’s drama recap. And there aren’t a lot comment on WW recap, neither fan wars.

            Your comment didn’t make sense and you just created issues that don’t exist.

            I think that there are some CEW’s fans that are regular beanies also that do not behave like those few ones. But we also have beanies that nickname the actor as “wooden”. We could say that DB is not very welcome towards CEW’s fans and they come and express their frustration only when his dramas air.
            I don’t know if I created more problems. The problem existed before I joined DB and will reoccur at every CEW drama, for sure.

            Yeah, but what you wrote is nothing related to Rowoon’s fans.

            Some CEW’s fans made the comments section not a good place and some Beanies don’t want to comment anymore because of that. It’s sad.

            I think that for some people that have no hand in this my comment holds water because Rowoon’s fans are more vocal about CEW and those fans. You might not like it, but we can feel some bias. Nobody likes to have their idols trashed constantly, Rowoon’s fans also, I am the example of that, although I have only commented about one issue in that particular drama. Do you think I will not get the same response if at every episode I would start commenting every little thing? Cause it’s kdrama, you can find a million things to comment. And when it’s done at every episode, at every drama, then you also would think that is more outhere than just constructive criticism.

            People who doesn’t like CEW’s acting are not Rowoon’s fans, they are just Beanies who doesn’t like him as an actor. There is no fan wars, etc. You are creating things that don’t exist.

    Or maybe “fans” should leave them alone since they literally have nothing to do with each other, and both of them are just trying to live their lives like everyone else? Just suggesting.

      That’s my take on it also. But if they must, maybe the recaps is not the space to vent it all out, hence my offer.

        “If they must”, I think they’re just in the wrong site. Dramabeans isn’t the place for that.
