“Physical 100” is such a crazy concept to me because if you were to make an American equivalent to the show, you could end up with an episode where NBA’s Steph Curry gets into a wrestling match with NFL’s Brock Purdy. Or the YouTuber “Yoga with Adrienne” wrestling with WWE’s Becky Lynch.

The Most Romantic Lines in Mr. Queen:

King Cheoljong to Bong-hwan: “Why did it anger you so much?” “So? Did you figure it out?” “No, I cannot seem to figure it out. So, I decided to accept it, although I cannot understand it. That a blessing to others, may not be a blessing to you.”

King Cheoljong to Bong-hwan: “I’ll comfort you tomorrow.” “Your existence is comforting enough.”

Bong-hwan to Byeong-in, about Cheoljong: “You asked me why it has to be the King. Let me answer that question now. If someone has to be King, I think he’s the best one. He’s the most king-like out of everyone. So don’t stop me from going and casting a precious vote to the King.”

King Cheoljong to Bong-hwan: “When you weren’t in the Palace, I was surrounded by darkness, like there was a blackout. Oh, ‘Blackout’ means...” “No need to explain. I understand how you feel. I felt the same way.”

Bong-hwan to King Cheoljong: “If you really are from the future, then you must know the ending of this fight too. What happens?” “You’re going to lose. But I’m going to bet everything I’ve got on you.”

Bong-hwan to King Cheoljong: “So, you put all the eggs in my basket.” [Laughs] “Yes. All in. I went all in on you.”

Love to Hate You

Netflix's newest Korean romantic comedy premiered on February 10th. Love to Hate You tells the story of a female attorney that doesn't like to lose to men and an actor that hates women.

The first couple of episodes are hard to get through, sometimes it's the misogyny, and other times it's the comments about being gay and it ruining everything. This is South Korea where being gay isn't widely accepted but it's still tough to get past sometimes.

At first, I hated both Yeo Mi-Ran and Nam Gang-Ho. Yeo Mi-Ran, played by Kim Ok-Vin, is over the top and her motivations and actions against Nam Gang-Ho seemed excessive. I get she doesn't like when men are sexist but damn girl.

Nam Gang-Ho, without going into too many spoilers, has the worst reason for not liking women. Teo Yoo plays Gang-Ho really well, and I loved seeing him open up and smile more as the show progressed, but it's not really a valid reason my dude.

As the show goes on, and you learn a little more about the characters, you learn why they act the way they do. Although, it's not a justification. Without giving spoilers just because someone wrongs you doesn't mean you have to punish everyone around you.

Overall, by the end of the series I was into it but I am a sucker for an enemies-to-lovers story. With only 10 episodes Love to Hate You is a great weekend binge. Love to Hate You is streaming on @netflix.

What do we know about this show? Do we have any more details about this show?! Maybe SK is gradually coming into a new era of LGBTQI+ acceptance (at least in media)??? 🌈🌈🌈 https://www.allkpop.com/article/2022/05/south-korean-ott-platform-wavve-under-discussion-for-a-new-gay-dating-entertainment-program

I WAS JUST TALKING TO KEVIN ABOUT THIS OMG. Your link (which, allkpop is trash but I'll allow it because there's not much else about this out there):

And here's the text so you ain't even gotta click if you don't wanna.

Oh look boys kissing! No? Identifiable boys close to each other! Definitely gay boys! Still... no?

No seriously I stole that pic straight off of KBIZoom talking about the EXACT SAME SHOW POSSIBILITY - but they had to censor the shots in case anyone thought the models might be ... kinda GAY. I believe we see closer stuff than that on your average Memories DVD:

BUT ANYWAY Kevin and I were discussing it - he brought it up. And I was like "uh BL (boy love) is a huge market, it'd be stupid not to make some bank on it" and he goes, "This is Korea. Boy love as a genre is acceptable here because it's fiction. A reality show with actual people willing to be out on television is going to be a hard sell for both the audience and the potential cast." So I go well what about the fact that they're even considering it then, and he goes,

"Considering, curious about, beginning market research on, all words that mean this is not something that is ready to happen here yet. Maybe in the next administration, but not now. They probably started round-table-ing this idea a year ago, but with Yoon in office? It's not happening. Give it a few years to let the idea simmer and see what the next President does." But my trash white American girl opinion is that of course it would be a great idea -- in theory, it could open some eyes. Except that the conservatives wouldn't watch it. Much like Drag Race here and in Europe, it would be a niche market for the first few years. WATCH ME JUST DIGRESS HERE I DO THAT SOMETIMES

Kim Chi competed on and nearly won Season 8 of RuPaul's Drag Race, and is a Korean man with Korean parents. He is 34 years old and at the time he competed, his mother knew only that he was a gay makeup artist. His father and his brother didn't even know he was gay. And I'm not sure they know now. And this dude lives in Los Angeles by way of Chicago. I can't imagine what his life would be like in Seoul, or Daegu, or Busan. And while Kev agreed that yeah, okay, drag is a step farther, he also said, interestingly, that drag might have been MORE acceptable to his own Korean mother (rest her soul) than having a gay son would have been. Because he could have argued that he was into it for the theater - a bit of Japanese kabuki styling - versus "oh hey eomma I do sexy time with men, woke up gay today, bit fruity."

So the upshot is that gay fiction is one thing, but gay reality is entirely another. We're back to the "we don't talk about those things here, it isn't polite." Enjoying the romantic drama of two young (they're always young, Kevin noted, not being particularly young himself) pretty men is not the same thing as seeing Jungshin from accounting on a dating show.... for GAY PEOPLE. And Kevin pointed out that honestly, even BTS are seen as fictional characters in Korea (and likely elsewhere). The idea that they are real human men with real romantic interests and real sex drives doesn't really fly, there. Not yet, anyway. So the "boy love" aspect is fine, as long as they're young, famous, pretty, and they don't admit to TOO much.

This is okay. ETA: and the above shot is edited, in case anyone didn’t know. See my fictional character point?

This is okay. But if they kissed or came out, that would NOT BE OKAY. And Taekook is not real, but the Jeon Parks are about as loud as they can get what with dropping honorifics like that, so as long as they're riding the line of fiction vs reality they're still okay. Full on reality or even depicting reality, though, is still not okay - at least, not on the Seoul Broadcasting Network (SBS), who censored out the kisses in "Bohemian Rhapsody", the Freddie Mercury biopic as recently as 2021. And that caused some backlash on the internet:

But it hasn't changed a thing on the networks. YET. Maybe someday. Hope springs eternal.

I always thought that “Fly Me To The Moon” was oddly out of place in Squid Game, given that it plays around the villain’s luxury mansion area all the time or when horrid atrocities are happening during the games

but now I get it

[image: black text on white background that reads:

“An interview reports that Musk actually has five favorite tracks:

Fly me to the moon-frank Sinatra

Always look on the bright side of life-Monty python

America, F*ck yeah!-team America world police

Con de partiro- Andrea bocelli

Santa Claus is coming to town”

End./]

Big variety companies never face the repercussion for what they put celebrities into. This is not the first time accusations were thrown towards them because the hosts asked to do something or reply to something. It's one thing to hold idols accountable for not protesting/resist or being careless or even getting in trouble alone for what they things they say or do of their own will but it's another to limit yourself to swiftly call out the hosts but never push action taking towards them and the administration making money out of all that. They have never actually had repercussion on the problematic stuff they do or say unless they directly embarrass or hurt their guests. (Like Doni and Coni and some other cases) And even there the clip or episode is just deleted.

Don't continue call 4th Generation idols sellout because the companies choose to not promote on TV like your beloved 2th Gen (or 3th too) when the majority of accusations come from these programs (Half of which aren't even that spectacular as you paint them to be, just a couple, the others are decent at best).

The idols aren't even paid that much on average and are already overly criticized by default and get even more criticism, hate and loose money and fans with this stuff, the television companies and hosts never lose anything. Ever.

About BamBam's recent accusations.

“Physical 100” has strong chunin exam energy. Really entertaining if you’re into reality shows, Ninja Warrior, or Squid Game.

Also, of all the Korean/international reality shows I’ve watched, this feels like the one that is most likely going to get an American equivalent. Good lord, just imagine the American version of “Physical 100”, it’d be “Fitness Influencer: The Series”.

A Good Day To Be A Dog

Han Hae Na has never been in a relationship or kissed. It's not because she hasn't wanted to, it's because of a family curse. When Hae Na gets her first kiss she will turn into a dog at midnight every night. The only way to lift the curse is to get a kiss in her dog form or she stays a dog for the rest of her life.

Han Hae Na, played by Park Gyu Young, has a crush on the cute history teacher at the school she works at. After going out with a few other teachers, she gets drunk and decides to kiss him and just have him lift the curse. But, in her drunken stooper, she kisses the mean math teacher Jin Seo Won, played by Cha Eun Woo.

Jin Seo Won is afraid of dogs which throws a, pardon the pun, bone into the plan. Han Hae Na must get a kiss from Seo Won before time runs out.

It's been a while since I have watched a Kdrama. Life got busy and I didn't have time. A Good Day To Be A Dog got me back into them. I love this show. It's funny, cute, and best of all has dogs! Cha Eun Woo makes it worthwhile too 😂

My only complaint is the timing of the episodes. It was a slow and rough start with sometimes two weeks between episodes. It's not the show's fault, but it didn't help keep momentum. It has been fixed and now episodes are coming out weekly.

You can catch A Good Day To Be A Dog on @viki!
