<p>I really hate dismissive people about mental health just because they haven&#x27;t met one or are not themselves.I posted a PSA for a short scene in <a href="/tags/myroyalnemesis/" rel="tag">#MyRoyalNemesis</a> and an ableist immediately dismissed it.Here&#x27;s the image: <a href="https://www.pasteboard.co/Okld7fHFAUnX.png" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="www.pasteboard.co/Okld7fHFAUnX.png"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">www.pasteboard.co/Okld7fHFAUnX</span><span class="invisible">.png</span></a><a href="/tags/kdrama/" rel="tag">#Kdrama</a></p>

<p>It&#x27;s no longer just their height and face that matters in getting signed-up for <a href="/tags/kdrama/" rel="tag">#Kdrama</a> projects for male actors, they need 6–8 loaf of breads as their abs because shower scenes are now mandatory.😆</p>

<p>Few people notice this: there is often a monthly &amp; quarterly theme in <a href="/tags/kdrama/" rel="tag">#Kdrama</a> </p><p>This month and last month, the recurring theme is <a href="/tags/euthanasia/" rel="tag">#euthanasia</a> or &quot;assisted death&quot;, and <a href="/tags/switzerland/" rel="tag">#Switzerland</a> is sometimes mentioned in passing. (IIRC, there was a K-drama that touched on this earlier this year.)</p><p>Usually, this has to do with current social sentiments and discussions. Writers and directors who still values social issues more than entertainment produce projects based on what&#x27;s the current trend or pressing issue/discussion. Again, usually. The other possibility, someone or some group is pulling the strings.</p><p>However these themes occur, it gives us some insight intothe cultural and social situation in South Korea.</p><p>As we all know, fiction can influence the people&#x27;s views and sentiments on sensitive issues, directly and indirectly. It may not be evident immediately but it will be eventually.</p><p>It looks like it is euthanasia or assisted death this time. It&#x27;s a war on minds. Push and pull. Either make it common so people become comfortable with it and make it easi for politicans and news to openly discuss it, or write the stories in a way that will make people to reject it.</p><p>It&#x27;s good to openly discuss sensitive topics and use fiction to put cultural and social issues up front, as long as fiction isn&#x27;t used to push one side or an agenda.</p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://fedigroups.social/@kdrama" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>kdrama</span></a></span></p><p>---</p><p>P.s.</p><p>I used &quot;assisted death&quot; and not &quot;assisted suicide&quot; not because I&#x27;m being politically correct, rather I do believe and think it is more appropriate and accurate.</p><p>For me, the word &quot;suicide&quot; is religious or ethical or moral-based, and is relative to the person.</p><p>I personally do not have an opinion about assisted death and/or euthanasia, other than it is not &quot;assisted suicide&quot;.</p>

<p>If you&#x27;ve watched &quot;K-Pop Demon Hunters,&quot; you know the cute tiger &amp; magpie.</p><p>The tiger showed up in Korean folkart which became popular during the Joseon period. It is thought to represent the ruling class and is often made to look foolish. Some think the magpie represents the commoners.</p><p>You&#x27;ll see one of the famous Hojak-do (Tiger Magpie painting) pieces below as well as a current day sculpture (with LED lights embedded in it for animations at night) that was in Myeongdong, Seoul across from my hotel.</p><p><a href="/tags/kdrama/" rel="tag">#kDrama</a> <a href="/tags/kpop_demon_hunters/" rel="tag">#kPop_Demon_Hunters</a></p>
