[teens stories/enter-talk] SINGLES INFERNO IS GETTING A F*CKING LOT OF HATE OVERSEAS RIGHT NOWㅋㅋ

Posted on December 28, 2021
(T/N: for context, Singles Inferno is a dating show that's booming in Korea/internationally right now. When they were introducing the candidates, there's a girl called Shin Jiyeon who appeared and some of the male candidates said that he likes girls like her who has fair skin)

When Shin Jiyeon appeared, the male candidates said that her skin is really pale/fair so she looks innocent. And they also said that they liked women with fair skin.. Because of this, they are getting hate.. people are saying "then if you have dark skin, does that look impure?.. then are their ideal types babies?..."ㅋㅋㅋ

(When describing the male candidates' ideal types they say "they're literally describing a child" & "pale innocent looking women")

To be honest, I can imagine foreign fans feeling hurt if people mention fair skin or whatnot but unlike the US or Canada, it's not like Korea was very diversified when it comes to races. So when they say "fair skin", they are only describing Korean people... I don't think it's right for them to call us racist because of that..

Honestly speaking, it's impossible that America's culture is the same as us when it comes to this concept. They have so many races interacting with one another. When it comes to Korea or East Asian countries, we don't have a that many races here... so of course all our country will reflect our own view on races and cultures.

I don't think that a country that gets to experience so many cultures can say anything about this issue. In our country, we don't easily see a black or white person in the streets. It's to the point that when we do run into one, they are fascinating to us. No but f*ck, I'm saying we only run into them seldomly, so do we have to think about them and live up to their standards all the time? No but, when someone asks us about our ideal types, should we respond "ah~ if it's Koreans, then I like pale skin~ but if it's white people, I like tanned skin~"? Also, when white people go on TV and say "ah, I like women with a tan", nobody calls them out for racism??? The double standards are solid. F*ck, they never say anything when people mention dark skin but when fair skin is mentioned, we get f*cking hated on. Just thinking about it makes me so mad

Also, the way we interpret "fair skin" and "bright and innocent" is way different than how foreigners interpret it. When we mention "innocent", we're talking about someone who looks pure like Suzy. I've never watched any p*rn in my life so saying that I'm describing a child is just not it? It makes me so mad that they are spinning this and making it seem like we're fetishizing an underage kid.

Anyways...ㅜ what do you guys think?

But to some extent, our country does fetishize underage kids. There are no other countries aside from KR-CH-JP and other SEA k-pop fans who like adults who act like kids and who speak with a lisp and whatnot

2. [+227, -16]
Then is loving to tan in a foreign country considered racism too?.. if we changed the positions, I bet that they would find it ridiculous too

3. [+177, -7]
Saying something like this in our country is so universal that I'm seriously shockedㅋㅋㅋㅋ We're not saying that people with fair skin look innocent but that we like people with fair skin AND who look innocent

4. [+111, -2]
I'm not sure about back then but nowadays, the kids who show their inferiority complexes towards fair skin for no reason sound exactly like them;;;;; they hate it more than anyone else when people say that they like fair skinㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+99, -1]
But ever since Korea made the Anti-appeasement steles (T/N: monuments built in Korea to ostracize Westerners in the 19th century), we've always considered fair skin as a beauty trait. Overseas, Asians had that "yellow" image but actually, our skin is pretty fair universally speakingㅋㅋㅋㅋ liking fair skin didn't come from white people, it's always been like that (T/N: OP is arguing that Korea preferred light skin even when the country was ostracizing foreigners so the preference didn't come from white people)



[enter-talk] THIS FREEZIA SEQUENCE IS F*CKING FUNNY

Singles Inferno's Song Ji-ah
"If not, then what's the reason?"

"Ah, so you thought about it?
Ok, I'll take care of you"

When she's meeting with fans
"You're making me shy for liking meㅋㅋㅋ"

"I like your reaction (for liking me) so much >w<"

"I'll read it alone"

But for real, all the men on the show are f*cking so-so and only the women are fineㅜㅋ I miss Heart Signal

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ why is her expression so bored?

3. [+57, 0]
But honestly, watching the program makes me f*cking want to save Freezia. Personally, all the men are so-so... if I'm looking at other similar programs, the men here have above average looks but the more I watch this, the more I realize that their looks aren't the issue here...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

4. [+26, 0]
If she was on Love or Money, she could've at least won some money ㅠ (T/N: Love or Money = dating show where participants are either in for love or money)

5. [+22, 0]
But in the first episode, she said that none of them were her ideal type no?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+16, 0]
Kim Hyeon Joon is so meh... Shihun is at least better than me but it feels like Ji-ah doesn't see him as a man...

[theqoo] SNOWDROP "A GROUP OF TORTURE EXPERTS DROVE INNOCENT STUDENTS TOGETHER TO KILL THEM" (REAL HISTORY) VS NSA TEAM LEAD CHARACTER ft. VIEWER RATING

Posted on December 26, 2021
rough trans:
Soo-ho *takes Young-ro hostage*: Drop the guns
Kang-moo (to squad): Drop the guns
*NSA squad lower guns*
Kang-moo: Im Soo-ho. She's just a young student. 
Soo-ho: Get out, everyone get out
Kang-moo (to squad): Get out. Everyone withdraw
Soo-ho: Wait a moment. *Points Kang-moo*, you're the one responsible right? You stay here. 
Hanna: He's been shot, but you're telling me you'll hold him hostage?!
Soo-ho: Listen well. If you attack us, I'll kill *Kang-moo* first
Kang-moo: Good. Since I'll be staying here, release all the students. 
[irrelevant exchange between Hanna not wanting to leave Kang-moo, Kang-moo insisting they leave]
*units withdraw* 

"She's just a young student"
"I'll stay there, so release the students" 

People still claiming that this isn't beautifying the NSA are the same ones spurting bullsh*t like "we shouldn't torment North Koreans but treat them kindly" and watch pro-Japanese soldiers dramas with a smile. 
They're just friendly Japanese who were victims of an unfortunate history right? 

I can't understand the brains of the people still not understanding that this is beautification of NSA 

original post: here

1. This conversation and this scene was disgusting too ...

Chang-soo (NSA leader): Don't you know we (NSA) have to put our citizens' lives before ours!? *takes Hanna out of the case*
Hanna: *begs Chang-soo to keep her on the case even if it means expulsion*
*Tae-il (Secretary General of the ruling party) arrives, scolds Chang-soo for not taking care of the Soo-ho case and letting a North Korean enter the dorms of the female university*
*skips to university scene* 
Young-ro *sees NSA agent is trying to untie himself* *pretends to be having stomach ache draw attention* 
North Korean guy: Didn't I say I'd kill you if you did anything?
Dorms owner: She's sick 
*North Korean guy is distracted by Jisoo as NSA agent unties himself*
*NSA tries to save the students by trying to kill the NK guy*

2. Wow those dialogues are seriously crazy. They've killed so many innocent students who haven't done anything, yet they're making NSA speak these kinds of words? Just how can you not consider this unproblematic? This broadcast station and the writer have already proven to have distorted history many times

3. You really think that the NSA cares about innocent people's lives and "young students" or what not? Beautification aside, this isn't even beautification anymore, it's straight up right-wing f*ckers' propaganda. Just go commit su*cide

4. This drama is just childish. They're not only distorting history, but they're also turning things that have never occurred into facts. The actors' acting are all weird and this just seem so childish. The writer should seriously stop writing at this point. I feel like she doesn't care about her writing skills anymore since she thinks that her dramas will do well anyways. 

5. This is seriously a comedy f*ckㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. Wow the moment I heard those dialogues, I felt nauseous, and they're talking about a total reversal in episode 5? F*cking disgusting🤮

7. Nobody who shields this get a reality slap when they do so?

8. So in the end, the NSA team lead and his agents were just poor victims of the political powers of that time? That's the takeaway they want us to have? Do they think this is a sane message to pass to viewers?

9. Ah f*ck thisㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ R*tarded f*ckers, at least try to be subtle a bitㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Seriously every time I see this, swears just flow out of my mouth f*ck. To the f*ckers who still can't acknowledge this being beautification, what if someone came to your house and burned down everything down to your chopsticks? Are you still going to act like that?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

10. They said they'd quench all the misunderstandings if we watched until episode 5ㅋㅋㅋㅋ  Meanwhile the plot of episode 5 is still as bad

11. Ah~ I get it, so the genre was fantasy in the endㅋㅋㅋ

12. Every scene was disgusting, yet they told us "Believe me, watch episode 5"?????? Just how much do the producers even know about history? Jirisan was called a flop with 7~9% viewership ratings, so you know how much of a bigger flop Snowdrop is when they barely hit 2%. Flop even more 

13. So what was the reversal?ㅡㅡ  They told us to watch for the reversal with the 3 consecutive episodes no?

14. And what part isn't distorting history here? 

15. An NSA agent saving innocent students. Wow. This is a fantasy 


[theqoo] "SNOWDROP", THERE WAS NO REBOUND IN VIEWERSHIP


According to Nielsen Korea, a ratings research company, on the morning of the 27th, episode 5 of JTBC's Saturday and Sunday drama 'Snowdrop' which aired on the night of the 26th, recorded 2.75% in viewership ratings based on pay TV households nationwide.

This is a figure that has risen by more than 1% compared to 1.69% for the 4th episode aired on the 25th, but it is a decrease compared to the 2nd episode aired on Sunday, which recorded 3% viewership ratings in the absence of competing dramas in the same time zone on Sunday night.

1. Yet they're still f*cking us with the NSA beautification, scrap this 

2. So we're going to scrap it now right? 

3. Pfftㅋㅋㅋㅋ

4. So they broadcasted at a time when no other dramas were playing and still got this viewership... Just scrap this

5. Imagine a tentpole hitting only 2%ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. Just scrap this!!!! I'm not supporting BlackPink anymore. They've disappointed me so much, I just get chills when I see them nowㅠ

7. Why are they being so loud for 1~2%? Just scrap this 

8. JTBC was rebroadcasting Snowdrop massively throughout weekend, just why are they trying to fight with us so much? 

9. I wonder what excuse people will bring out this time? "They would've done better if not for Im Youngwoong's show"?

10. A 90 minutes drama that can't even hit 3% is a total flop... Meanwhile people are blaming it on Im Youngwoong

11. They told us to watch until episode 5 just to keep shoving that NSA beautification 

12. I don't think you resolved any misunderstanding? So are you finally going to scrap it?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 

13. I can't believe this r*tarded drama actually had an increase

14. ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ That's way too high!!!

15. They definitely will not scrap this at this rate
