All About Misogyny: Shame on You, Im Sung-han
10 August 2023
First of all, if you insist on watching this show, please stop at episode 10. Before episode 11, the show is great! I would rate it a 7.5, at least. But after episode 10, the scriptwriter just completely lost her mind.

In the first ten episodes, the scriptwriter depicted Baek Doi as a strong, intelligent, generous, and lovely female adult. Wow, all of a sudden, she's changed. She became cold and brainless.

I understand that sometimes scriptwriters need to create dramas so that more people would watch the show. But Im Sung-han really took that to another level.

This show is utterly disrespectful to women, to the LGBTQ+ community, and to all the actors. Both Choi Myeong-Gil and Yoon Hae-young are great great actresses. They worked with Im Sung-han before, and they gave their trust in her this time, and they got betrayed. It appears that Im Sung-han wants to teach people what true love means with this show. But no no no, what she is really doing here is to teach people what betrayal means. Both inside and outside the show.

One sincere piece of advice to Im Sung-han, if you feel tired or uninspired, consider retiring, please. Don't hurt the innocent audiences with those clueless, illogical twists and turns anymore. It's not interesting, but really pathetic.
