Looking for K-Drama Movie Recs

While I'm in a k-drama slump, I've been really into watching K-drama movies (not fancy Korean Films like Parasite or Decision to Leave) but more low budget ones featuring mainly K-drama actors.

Some K-Drama Movies I've watched recently:

Brave Citizen

The Girl On A Bulldozer

The Beauty Inside

Love and Leashes (you know I love this one so it was a rewatch)

Can you rec any others you've seen recently?? I'm willing to go outside of my favorite genres (romance and rom com) since they're shorter! Mainly I just love seeing my favorite people in movies!

not to drill something that has possibly already been drilled but. sevika's name interestingly means "servant" in hindi. obv, it fits with her whole theme, with silco and with zaun. now i'm pretty sure India doesn't exist in arcane but if any traces of hindi are breadcrumbed into it..... ohoho... OHOHOHOHO...

So in 2022, Kim Hye Yoon starred in a movie where she was a bulldozer and a movie where characters from different periods could interact. And in 2023, she's doing a drama where she is a bulldozer interacting with people in different time periods. 🤓

FYI — Ditto and The Girl on a Bulldozer are both FREE to watch in the U.S. on Tubi.

Persona romance routes are all pretty bad but damn they really hit rock bottom with p3p femc route like the misogyny is very blatant and it’s almost hilarious like look at the Shinjiro romance. When you do his social link he’s like very clearly respectful of Kotone as a leader and explicitly says stuff like "oh yeah you’re clearly the best fighter we have, I don’t really know much about fighting like you do, I hope I’m not dragging you down, you’re doing a good job as leader just remember to take care of yourself, everyone looks up to you I know you can rely on them" etc. like he has faith in her leading abilities. But then when you romance him he’s like got dialogue like "bwah bluh i gotta look after you because you’re a GIRL and you need to stick by me, a big strong MAN so you don’t get hurt" and "don’t wear that revealing outfit in front of other guys 👺" and it’s like. Does he respect her or not and also like it doesn’t make sense for him to look down on her for being a girl cuz he literally has never not been led by a girl leader during his time in sees and Mitsuru in particular really has her shit together when it comes to being responsible and a good fighter and she’s always known the most about Tartarus

It’s also like. Idk maybe its just me I’m not a girl so FUCK IF I KNOW but to me the appeal of romancing Shinji is the fact that he’s sweet and sensitive and gentle and has respect for you despite the fact that he acts all scary. That’s like, what made me like this character in the first place. But the writers seem to think what women want is for a BIG STRONG MAN to protect them because they are just DELICATE WOMEN who are inferior in every way it’s like. Shut upppp thanks

the thing about delilah and laudna's relationship is... okay.

i won't stand here and say "everyone would hate delilah if she was a man! you only like her because you can call her a girlboss!" because there are female characters in this series accused of being abusive for far less or literally nothing. if it were sylas or asmodeus or any other male villain that was her warlock patron, i'd argue that nearly nothing at all would change.

to cut to the chase and to cut myself off from this becoming a rant towards people giving villains far more sympathy than heroes: i think people would take her treatment of laudna more seriously if laudna was a man. like, nobody's lining up to call liam o'brien a misandrist for hating trent ikithon.

people do not take female abuse victims seriously, for starters. delilah has been belittling, manipulating, and punishing laudna for decades but everyone acts like she's completely comfortable with her for some reason. it's usually attributed to a scene in episode TWO where she was sassy and rude towards her patron before we knew who she was.

really? that's all the proof you have? are you gonna start complaining that veth doesn't have a british accent too?

i was kind of horrified when everyone defended laudna killing bor'dor by insisting that it was a "feminist move" to let her self harm because "it was her choice." you know. the "choice" that everyone involved regretted letting happen and pretty much agreed that they'd never let it come to that again if they could help it? and it wasn't even a choice on her behalf! because laudna cannot consent when delilah takes control. she was dead when delilah made her into her soul jar. why does everyone forget that?

and besides, laudna isn't even the first woman she's done this to. people seem to completely sidestep that she did the exact same things to cassandra de rolo for decades as well. that's why i can't really get behind any posts that sympathize with her.

"um she's a bad guy and bad guys are supposed to do bad things you dumb goo goo gaa gaa baby nun puritan 🤪🤪🤪"

alright, then. if delilah's a bad guy, then let her be a bad guy and quit making excuses for her. if you're willing to read into the heroic characters with every single bad faith interpretation (literally every single member of bell's hells except for chetney and dorian has been accused of being abusive to laudna over delilah lmao) you can think of, then how come you're suddenly pitying the character that chose to fuck over multiple women over to get ahead and tried to cause the apocalypse multiple times?

delilah made her choice. laudna never could.

I know what would fix my life. I bet if I run into the girl I hate and, in front of everyone, lob a really good Kate Sanders-esque mean girl insult at her, I will finally win!! And everything she did to me will stop hurting and lingering!!! And I’ll stop thinking about it every day!!!! I bet that’s what I should do. And also everyone will think I’m really funny and cool!!!!
