Korean comedy lost in mockery of vulnerable

Popular Korean shows SNL Korea (read: the Korean adaptation of Saturday Night Live) and I Am Solo are actually unfunny and actually not joking this year. What a shame for both shows. SNL Korea recently hit not one but two recent controversial criticism including the Jeongnyeon parody.

    In Switzerland, we call it “Vermicelles” and it’s more one tartlet than a whole cake. But it’s so good :p

From #WhatComesAfterLoveEp1:
(1) The unexpected cameo of the Rolling Stones (note: they captured during mid-1960s)
From #WhatComesAfterLoveEp2:
(2) Maybe I should wait for this Kdrama/show with the two things: (a) someone or something that was officially not from this novel just like someone’s female from Marry My Husband early this year and (b) whether this show/Kdrama would have an unexpected unhappiest ending or a happiest ending ever
(3) I knew that when you rent a bike in Kyoto, the sign says that Kyoto was officially limited to just 100 bikes (…due to overtourism in Japan?)

    I’ve done the solo movie watching and dining, and totally enjoyed myself. But never the drinking out alone… I don’t trust humans, especially the humans where I live 🙁
    And Kdrama watching is all solo anyway…

Update on Jeongnyeon (this update is about the MBC seizure of this show meant this Kdrama would probably have a temporary postponement due to this issue):

    Oh nooo!
    It’s almost as if MBC studio waited until the release date to force the issue. They could filed their grievance early in production.

    This actually makes me more excited for it. The fact that there is a bidding war means that multiple groups think its going to be a banger.

Update on Black Out (MBC) for Japanese viewers only:
– U-Next
– FOD
– Hulu Japan
– RakutenTV

So the relief for Japanese viewers to watch Black Out now joined with Indonesia (Vidio) to watch this Kdrama outside South Korea.

…but the availability angst with still no English subs in other countries outside South Korea, Japan and Indonesia still ongoing.

photos no. 1 and 2 (with the actual Changwon NC Park stadium at photo no. 3): from #NoWayOutTheRouletteEp1 — during the drone chase scene, there was a fictional local stadium Hosan Park and it was the home of the actual baseball team NC Dinos. When I searched Hosan Park on Google, it said Hosan Park was actually a rare park in Daegu. The actual stadium that was home to the NC Dinos was Changwon NC Park stadium where it was filmed the drone chase scene. Meanwhile, Hosan Park was also identical to one of the veteran Korean actors (Park Ho-san). (Note: Park Ho-san’s only Disney+ content so far was the acquired TvN Kdrama Maestra: Strings of Truth.)

My own random Caption This photo: (this photo was about supposed-to-be punch FL/female lead Im Soo-hyang to her mother but this photo showed that FL’s villainess took revenge to attempted to see FL’s back at the cafe)
– Will this weekender get the best storylines that will enough to surpass 20% or will cancel this weekender for the first time and no more weekender/end the weekender era anymore due to all of problematic storylines? (In real life, I still praying for the above 20% rating mark for the following next weeks where KBS (note: the only weekender network) weekenders always struggling.)
– She will punch the drama slump if she finally get the new K-dramas she loved.
– Get all of Kdrama villainesses offscreen now!… And here is the results: Lead heroines got 100 points while the villainesses are all no points at all.
