So… Never disappointing Love Mate and lotsof criticism towards Love Mate critics
Truth be told, I started a reaction
video for this series as: “Hello and welcome to today's video, we are going to
do a reaction video for play mates.” - and true to my words. and episode two
playmates they were.
Love Mate || 러브메이트 also Known As: Reobeu Meiteu (episode 6,7, South Korea, 2023, current
rating on MDL 7.8, current number of Watchers: 6,666). Main male leads: Cho Han
Gyeol (20) as Haram and Cho Hyun Min (28) as Lee Jun. Director: So Joon Moon
(43). Genres: Comedy, Romance, Drama.
Main themes: Workplace Setting,
Office Romance, Office Setting, Office Worker Supporting Character, Office
Worker Male Lead, Gay Male Lead, Gay Romance, Single Male Lead, Single By
Choice, Love At First Sight. We are dealing here with technologies and dating
apps are an issue here. As well we have here an ex-boyfriend who treated the
main lead wrong to the point the mml refused to Ever Fall in Love again and
decided to use dating apps and meeting people just Once… That is until one
person decides to pursue him. And not let him use the date up as an effortless
way out of the relationship ever again. Because he cannot be denied. Because
the person matters to him too much to let him hurt himself this way repeatedly.
Okay this might be an unpopular
opinion, again, oh my dear, but please, stop covertly offend our parents Under
pretense of “romantization of sexual harassment”. Especially please stop
offending our fathers this way (who made us this way by the way). Not
everything is black and white and the thing that we like is something in
fiction that should allow us to let our imagination be free and do anything
that we cannot or would not in real life does not ultimately translate into us
agreeing with real life harassment or toxic behaviour. I know you can probably
not understand it because you were raised differently, or because you are
different type of personality, but it's really starts to get annoying to listen
to same idiotic thing over and over again from people who obviously take
fiction and imaginary worlds as textbooks did we should treat a template for
our real life. I understand you are people who like imagination and fantasy,
but that does not mean that everyone on this planet has it like this. I
understand that if Creations were done according to your wish, then everything
would be healthy and boring. but there does not really mean that all of us want
to like it. and yet I hear you so frequently that I cannot hear the other Camp
at all standing for what they like… of course in fear of hearing again from you
your constantly wrong based opinions. I appreciate it you would for the right
things, but you root for them on the wrong playground. if you want to be an
activist, please see being one in audio visuals and fictions, and start doing
something in real life because it is your basis. I know you might hear this for
the first time, I get it, it might be even shocking for you. But if you think
you are doing Justice here to these cases, then you are wasting time. We are
nothing where nothing can be done, and no one is here for that. So, you are
azure on the wrong address with this, because you are too young to understand
it, or you are here on purpose because you know you can do anything in real
life, so you tend to steam it out of yourself here. But then again if you would
be a theorist in the real-life world Then complain-ist in the fictional world,
you would not harm anyone by not being able to do much and yet who you would do
the world a greater good being in that camp.
… just saying.
Now, when we have this out of our hair, you
can start with something much more substantial.
t is an exceptionally well-done
story that people complain about just because they want to back up their
political point of view and past traumas, so they set their mind on criticizing
something that is well written and well portrayed by the actress and the
creative team. I think by the context it is quite clear that we are not dealing
here with some creepers who touch you randomly in buses, despite you being
opposed to such a treatment. I understand your pain, believe me I do, but
omitting the context of a fictional story is not the way to go around things.
If you want to fight, choose another mediator, please, can change something. as
you have picked up already, I am not a huge fan of treating fictional roles as
any type of representation… Because it is not and it should not be to do it
like that, or it should be treated like that only in cases where it is
purposely written like it.
What I can see are two dudes, one is
hurting because of his previous relationship that did not end well; he does not
even see himself as hurting anymore. He just isn't overly happy, and he doesn't
open himself. Everything that hurts does not hurt anymore if you don't think about
anything too much. And if you accept the reality of not trusting other people
and not dating one as your own. He is lonely but he is not alone. Closed in his
bubble as a safety precaution, not letting anyone in. He is unwilling to trust
like that ever again. He resigned himself to never falling in love again.
The other one is desperately trying
to heal the first one.
And all of this is caused because of
one case of kindness.
The “conqueror” in this case is
someone Younger. who needed support. and who got support from someone older for
free unexpectedly when he really needed it when he was young and inexperienced
and not expecting anything. Amid fear. What he does he does with dedication,
not ill intention. His methods are those of stupid young boys who are insecure
themselves but willing to try and dare. Not malicious, but immature.
And he never meets straightforward
refusal. because no one is coming his way. because the other main male lead is
as well into him. Is that why he should give up on the touches? when he feels
the response from the other one? Should all of us stop touching ourselves? Are
we all obliged to use words even if we do not want to? Aren't you forcing us to
do something that we do not want to do - use words when we don't want to use words
but actions? Are in forcing us to do something we do not want to do? What does
it make out of you? What would you call yourself? You think you were thinking
right? You think again, please.
No, I do not condone harassment
behaviour. But not every “before we agree on it: together, beforehand, with
written contract signed” touches can be classified as “harassment”.
So, please, do not make it out of
it. Especially not in a fictional world.
Don't make it out of everything harassment, please. Sometimes it is just a mistake, sometimes it's a misunderstanding. Sometimes it is miscalculation. And support well written storytelling. Do not search there for socially unacceptable behaviour and don't make out of it an example. Stories are exceptions, not rules. And we should not make bad examples out of them. … that is if they are not done as a bad storytelling that does not have anything to say, is boring and not interesting at all, and is done written as UNI manual, not like a fiction.
