what did she mean by this?

>>211584916
idk. but would not say she's wrong

>>211584745 (OP)
finally somebody made it right, I was waiting for the other thread to die but someone kept bumping it. he claims he can't make it right because he's on mobile but that makes no sense you can still copy paste on mobile.

>>211584916
shameless

Hearing him introduce her as his girlfriend to strangers made her incredibly happy.

Really gave me the feels.

download and watch the latest kdg dotm, discuss with chingus here instead of sovlessly waiting to binge watch

Real men don't watch romance. Don't get influenced by the women here.

how wholesome they are

oh, i do, i just dont possess it ...

>>211585975
toxic masculinity unnie

seoul has some really impressive areas, but for some reason kdrama only shows the sheetholes

>>211585569
You mean testosterone fueled all man shows? Don't watch them.

>>211585569
wow this comment sure got the unnies all riled up

>>211586490
It made us feel insecure about watching female coded romance all the time

good boy is the best show this season. action, romcom

“Unnie Wae?”: Emotional Ritual, Genre Policing, and Gender Performance in 4chan’s K-Drama General

Abstract:

This paper examines the affective culture and aesthetic politics of the K-Drama General (/kdg/), an ongoing community thread on 4chan’s /tv/ board where anonymous, predominantly male users discuss Korean dramas. Contrary to dominant narratives about 4chan as a bastion of toxic masculinity, /kdg/ functions as a post-ironic sanctuary for emotional vulnerability, romantic longing, and gendered roleplay. Through digital ethnography, close discourse analysis, and multimodal annotation of text, images, and webms, this study explores how users enact a hybrid performance of sincerity and satire—referring to each other as “unnie,” deploying feminine-coded reaction images, and defending melodramatic romance as aesthetically superior to male-coded action or Western "slop."

The paper argues that /kdg/ sustains a self-regulating emotional ecosystem in which genre boundaries are vigilantly policed and softness is both permitted and ritualized. Within this ecosystem, thread participants reframe “female-coded” genres as emotionally meaningful for men, using irony and misrecognition (e.g., “the frog,” or “NTL”) as community lore. The analysis reveals a culture that is paradoxically transgressive and tender, hostile and heartfelt—where post-incel masculinity is reshaped not through dominance fantasies, but through shared aesthetic immersion in serialized romance.

Imagine the smell. Would kdg still marry her?

>>211587352
uh oh stinky

>>211587087
is the romance wholesome?

>>211587087
Never say that until it's finished.
Seriously, don't.

>>211585975
>Worst of Evil

Too late for you cuck boy

>>211588409
Dirty VD ridden whore.

>>211588531
>>211588409
Did the vd kill him?

>>211588977
It eroded his entire penis and testicles.

>>211587285
this paper better cite my posts as reference for its claims

>>211589269
That premise is bullshit. kdg not afraid to show its feminine side. Just see >>211588531 misogyny in full bloom, a full field of it

>>211589680
speaking of which, any kdrama about transpeople?

>>211589617
you haven't allowed time for the tone correction to happen

look at her go

>>211590501
>>211590548
She looks 10x better with her luscious long hair instead of the stupid bangs, or worse, the short hair from her latest drama

first night with duke or our movie?

>>211590501
>>211590548
>>211590649
Holy mid. This is the Zendaya of South Korea

>>211590710
RUDE

>>211590710
Zendaya is first and foremost defined by being a post-racial mutt, so your statement makes no sense about a Korean

the fact she played a teenager with 30-something is impressive doe

>>211590850
>He doesn't know
Kek Korean's are a country full of mutts you clueless Koreaboo. They've been penetrated by Mongols, Chinese and Japs for hundreds of years. Next time you think you're being smart, just remind yourself you're a fucking dumb cunt and you won't embarrass yourself like this again.

>>211591174
Race is generally a social construct, sister. Read a book.

i want /pol/ unnie to leave

>>211590664
our movie is kdg dotm

>>211591252
/kdg/ needs to form a coherent opinion on /pol/ statements to maintain the congruency of its unique worldview.

hunter with a scalpel 30min each ep and that's a good thing for crime slop.

>>211590664
Both are good
Comedy or heavy drama, your pick

>>211591442
okay

>episode 6 of twenty five twenty one
>turns out the female lead is a sloot

AAAAAAAAH

>>211587352
if this was anyone else i would be repulsed
but i'm hopelessly in love with seohyun so yes i would marry her

>>211591659
unnie are you sure you're just not being misogynist?

>>211591659
just ignore taeri and look forward to the bona scenes

>>211591759
bona? is that someone who has yet to appear?

>>211591741
im sure I am being misogynist unnie

don't need no man

>>211591783
bona plays yurim the rival fencing ace

>>211592170
ah, you mean yu-rim

she's very well played, but I cannot say her character is sympathetic. she's salty for no reason all the time

>>211591659
How is Kim Tae Ri a slut in 2521? Kdg never mentioned that in all the times it's recommended the drama.

>>211592340
she starts dating a random guy introduced in the same episode

>>211592340
she's not, you replied to someone that's not all there mentally.

>>211592217
she has the best character arc, just keep watching
>>211592340
>>211592358
her other boyfriend is more of a comic relief thing

I told you little forest was the comfiest movie.

>>211592358
>she starts dating a random guy introduced in the same episode

>>211592796
You just know ...

>>211592796
>>211592821
Does she eat it?

>>211592821
you're thinking of white women
>>211592845
racist unnie

>>211592845
he eats it with some peanut butter if you catch my drift

>>211592879
White women fuck dogs
Asian women eat dogs

1000 won kim tae ri poster is awfully quiet

>>211590710
stop comparing my cute wife (zendaya/MJ) to random actresses (the Handmaidengirl in this case)

>>211593673
she needs to be in more highschool drama kino

Does he have any good shows?

Our bully is going to be in a kino sounding romcom!

>Im Ji Yeon is reportedly set to return as a villainess, as well as in the romantic comedy K-drama genre.
>Im Ji Yeon the role of Shin Seo Ri, an unknown actress who became vicious after being possessed by the spirit of a legendary Joseon villainess. Labeled a femme fatale and sentenced to death, she was then transported to the 21st century to begin a new life.

>>211593830
>she needs to be in more highschool drama kino
She's already 30 now, probably too old to be playing highschoolers.

>>211594336
are you saying that's good or bad?
no romance no watch

we prefer girls just being comfy friends like in Age of Youth

>>211590974
That's more or less the standard for kdrama.
The perks of being asian.

>>211594907
Dirtiest VD ridden whore right after Slutzy

>>211595256
Why? And what's VD?

who are your favourite actresses

>>211593910
Premise sounds webtoon as fuck, genuinely surprised it's not an adaptation. SBS does pretty well with these kinds of characters so it should be fun at least

>>211594451
No, I'm referring to the time travel aspect. Time travel romcoms are about as sloppy as they come.

I never heard anyone in kdrama say unnie wae, unnies

>>211595966
I've never heard them say 'uppercut yourself' either

>>211595592
i love and respect every actress who started out as an idol

It's almost as if most characters in kdrama aren't insufferable schizo faggots or something.

>>211596028
okay, so I won't

Wish she acted more

>>211595592
Chae Soo Bin

>>211595540
She was fucking Hyeri's boyfriend while they were still together. When the press found out they waited for her at the airport, she freaked out and didn't want to leave the boarding gate area. She's a coked up whore. There's footage of her acting like a deranged junkie at events.

>>211596620
Someone on kdg said that was fake news iirc

might rewatch The Dream Songs again
my movie of the decade, i don't think i've ever seen any unnies talk about it here

it's only available with machine-translated subtitles but don't let that stop you from watching
https://x.com/asianfilmfiles/status/1756465065559990743

>>211590589
Bangs hater you will never convince anyone.

>>211596682
Yeah ntl her biggest simp. You can look it up yourself. She has a lot of controversies already in her short career. She's a train wreck that will derail some day.

>>211596885
Looks like a dude. Mid AF.

>>211595256
what did suzy do

>>211597070
It's easier to ask who she didn't do

>>211597201
Thay doesn't sound right, it should be "who didn't she do" right? Or am I just retarded?

I don't know, I'm tired. I'm going to bed. It's 4:30 am ffs...

>>211597043
I hope one day to meet a dude like that

>>211597201
I kekked.

>episode 7/16 of twenty five twenty one
>FL is already the Asian champion of fencing

wonder what she'll even do for the rest of the series?

Is she pure? Can't wait for moving season 2 when tf is it releasing

>>211597421
Maybe if /kdg/ has a real life meet-up you'll get your wish

>>211597606
now the real fun starts!

hi kdg. we are very lively i see! enjoy the other skitso's reign of terror for a bit.

yours truly

>>211597677
who is that?

>>211598284
Go youn jung

>>211596620
I'm glad Hyeri is single now. That mean I have a chance.

Bros why is she so underrated?

>>211599474
We liked her in Come and Hug Me

>>211599384
least realistic unnie award

>>211599598
That's a different actress thoughbeit

>>211599474
not young
not an idol
she's gotten plenty of solid roles the last several years though i think she's doing fine

>>211599474
We don't care for Slutmadari

>>211600022
What does the actress have to do with a character she plays? Yes the character balled most of Seoul but the actress didn't

>>211600334
She's a whore forever now!

It's over.

>>211601741
it never began, unnie

You watch K-Drama because you have yellow fever
I watch K-Drama because I appreciate the art
We are not the same

>>211602034
Why can't it be both?

>>211602034
It's not that we have yellow fever specifically, it's just that attractive women are no longer allowed on western media.

okay, the ending of twenty one twenty five episode 8 is kinda really fucking bullshit

the two female leads, who have an intense IRL rivalry, were anonymous online friends for THREE YEARS and discussed their lives in great detail, yet apparently didnt realise one another's identity?

>>211602751
People only like that drama because it stars their favorite rug muncher. It's the same way kdg this year loves 9 Puzzles but only because the FL is super quirky.

>>211602878
we don't like nine puzzles

>>211602878
people enjoying things upsets me too.

Oof

>>211602878
>FL is super quirky
And? It sets her apart from all the other bleached white plastic girls

>>211602171
Asian actresses dare to be feminine and western actresses look too masculine. The western idea of the modern strong woman is a girl boss in a wifebeater shirt.

>>211602034
I started with Thai and Vietnamese dramas (while traveling every shop stall, restaurant had them on every night and everyone glued to the tv) and moved to jdrama then kdrama and some cdrama. It was like a whole new world. I don't watch capeshit or western cop or hospital shit or black family shit.

>>211599474
>very good actress
>makes schizo seethe
she's based

>>211602034
unnie, what's wrong with having yellow fever? that basically just means finding east asian women to be highly sexual, right?

much munch munch

>>211612018
why aren't they munching on each other's rug

>>211612048
she's not for that the perverted director made her do those things

>>211612048
they're mother and daughter, we only approve of brother and sister incest here.

munch munch munch

>>211612325
how much does she eat in this movie

>>211612358
a lot

>>211613254

>>211611528
They're also doing Twelve

why doesnt she have a mukbang channel?

how does she clean afterwards? >>211587352

still no subtitles for nine puzzles

>>211613574
kang mi-na more like boo-ba.

>>211613692
there are subtitles out for it already

>>211613692
you are retarded.

If i go to korea will i find love

>>211613841
why are they an exact copy of the dub? not subtitles

Which way, white woman?

how does she do it

>>211615830
Hasn't she posted another vlog since?

Sorry guys I can’t stop rewatching My Mister and My Liberation Notes

They’re just too fucking good. Misery kino.

Heard It Through The Grapevine is criminally underrated by kdg

>>211616219
>Our Unwritten Seoul (2024) – embraced as high-kino by /kdg/ due to its tone, aesthetic, and ending
kdgGPT knows the ending to our unwritten seoul

>>211615864

>>211587285
>>211616219
Ask it about kdg's obsession with incest and feet

>>211616615

how do we bring back sincerity to kdramas?

>melodrama GOOD
>over the top romcom BAD

do post 2016 watchers really

>>211620389
you've got it backwards

Low Life has an air date which means we are one step closer to Tempest. September perhaps. Synopsis for Low Life seems interesting though
>When valuable treasure is discovered off the coast of Korea, the country's biggest degenerates come crawling out of the woodwork in the hope of striking it big. Word spreads after a fisherman got lucky and kept a piece of the booty for himself. Among those tempted to brave the depths of the ocean are two members of a fractious and disunited crime family notably an uncle who both looked after his nephew and led him astray.

>>211620389
accurate

>>211620937
because k-dramas started to become made for wider audiences by that time

>>211621218
SEA and greater Asia was fine but as soon as they started catering to whites it was all downhill

guys give me a korean romance film that will make me cry like a bitch

>>211622657
guaranteed

>>211622657
Failan

>>211621218
I want to say that's also about when the shift towards pre-production started seriously taking off (due to the success of DOTS maybe). The live-shoot system was a big limitation

constantly recommending my mister to people that have never watched kdrama has been a disaster for trying to get new fans into the fandom, stop doing it
>>211623738

fine gonna start my mister

any other kdrama actresses with this phenotype?

was it autism?

Was it sarcasm?

>>211625052
you just gotta start 'em on the right stuff, it's better than them coming into the fandom through random modern netflix kdramas.

times when you acted like K-drama?

>>211599598
I very much like that actress (who is not the one you think she is) but she has never been in a good show.
Come and Hug started with a couple good episodes but then turned into misery wallowing time wasting slop
Same with her time travel show, started okay but then it's just nonsense writing and cheap looking sets, why do a trime travel show with $0 budget for reconstitution is beyond me
Then we had her scoobydoo show this year, okay when she's on screen doing her usual hijinks but pants on head retarded nonetheless

>>211630486
oh and there's her secretary romcom show, she's great in it as always, but the show is so unbelievably generic and forgettable...
it's like she only gets hired to do cheap knock-off of better shows

>>211630549
I liked her in From Now On Showtime

>>211621518
>whites
rent free brownoid. they cater to the entire West including all the Western Asians, blacks, whites and brownoids like yourself. the collective West has ruined K-poop and K-drama's. especially the larping Western wannabes SEA.

kino ending

>>211631064
kpop and kdrama doesn't need the west. Its the west in search of content and Disney, Amazon and Netflix want it on their service in hopes of more penetration into the Asian market. The Asian market, absent Bollywood, dwarfs the western market.

Many of you still view the world with white man eyes and the west the center of the universe. Its not true

>>211630006
I often get digestive issues at inconvenient moments

>>211632520
lots of recent k-pop caters heavily to the west with English lyrics

I can't believe how much of a bitch yu-rim is unnies

>>211632876
watch haunted palace next
she is FL

>>211633122
i dont like costumeslop unnie

>>211632787
and some songs have mandarin lyrics. Do you have any idea how popular a group like Black Pink is and the group member Lisa (who is Thai btw)? They don't give two shits if some guy in Ohio can sing along with a song.

>>211633138
but Lisa, Jennie etc. literally sing in english in all of their solo songs unnigger

youre not helping your case

go back to /mu/ nobody cares about your kpoops singing in different languages.

bitch I'm a star but not patrick

>>211633138
>>211632520
Holy fucking brainlet, English isn't about the Irish or US-American market, HALF THE GLOBE gets rudimentary English lyrics, while spoken Korean is unintelligible even to their closest Chinese and Japanese cousins.

This has nothing to do with Western-centrism, people in fucking Indonesia have a 10x easier time getting English than Korean.

>>211633138
Popular with drooling retards (mainly SEA and all the western third world immigrants). They're not even the most popular in South Korea. Trash group for trash people.

>>211633176
Its not for some white guy in Ohio. You realize all over the globe a little English is understood but that doesn't mean its intended for western audiences. Now someone like Lisa that could become a global star like Taylor Swift after already conquering Asia will sing songs in English. That Thai or Indonesian or Japanese or Chinese fan may sing along.

>>211632520
It is still the centre because that's where the money, technology and trends come from brownoid. If Korea was so powerful they wouldn't grovel to Netflix and the likes for funding their slop. They give in to the DEI rules as well. All the K-poop whores try so hard to fit in with the West. Going to European fashion and art shows, attending American events and music awards, etc. Western artists do not go to Korea for those things. You're a clueless shut-in retard.

>>211633514
Go eat your pagpag SEA retard

>>211633414
Look fool. Most of the people commenting here have never been to asia so I happen to completely agree with you. I travel enough and hear english every fucking where in Asia. That is why the kpop stars sing in English not for some European or American. My larger point is Western media companies want to crack the Asian market and want to piggyback on the success in the Asian market of the Koreans

>>211633514
>Its not for some white guy in Ohio.
it is, to an extent. Kpop makes more profit in the United States than it does in china. more in europe than it does in India. fact.

china or India might have more people, but that matters little if a significant part of them are dirt peasants. us teens actually have the money to spend on k-slop.

>>211633572
>My larger point is Western media companies want to crack the Asian market
yeah not denying that, but it goes both directions. Asia has the quantity, the west still has the quality in terms of potential clients.

K-drama is for white women because the actors are so hot to them.

K-drama is for white men because the actresses are so hot to them.

Now I see what the unnie saying yu-rim will go through character development meant

>>211633523
>You're a clueless shut-in retard
You have never been to Asia. I have and spent time in nearly every Asian country for over a decade. I happen to agree the streaming technology and business model of Netflix is used by viewers globally. While no fan they changed everything. Killing western broadcast TV and cable content monopolies that didn't co-op that model. All anyone needs is cell or wifi and a phone so a kid in the mountains of Laos or North Korea can view most anything that is pirated

>let's have look at kdg..
>ok maybe another time

Why are koreans so obsessed with shitting?

It's hot when a cute asian girl shits.

>>211638386
not really

>>211638246
they have the same eternally stunted in development sense of humour as the Japanese, so characters pissing and shitting themselves is just soooo hilarious to them
