It has been months. They cannot answer the question, the original question I asked all those months ago. It’s one single question. Was the torture agency official in the show portrayed as a fundamentally principled, upstanding person? Y/N?

Blech. Sorry about that. I thought I was doing a good job of processing the news but then I saw *gestures in disgust*

If you're non-Korean, but you consume Korean culture and products, it would help if you found ways to make clear that politics matter. Consumer feedback matters. I think we all know that.

LGBTQ rights in particular, but also women's rights, environmental rights - these are global things, regionally specific yes but global, human rights.

I'm sorry - I thought I could just ignore and move on but I fucking can't. This man is an absolute godDAMN travesty and the idea that "administration change" means anything good for this country is a fucking joke. His campaign and cronies have championed: PRIVATIZATION of healthcare, the abolition of the Gender Equality and Family Ministry, the elimination of minimum wage, and increased "flexibility" in basic work week hours (he suggested some people want to work 120 hour workweeks).

I’m rly glad he said this.
We need to stop narrativizing what’s happening. This isn’t a fucking myth or movie in the making. Stop fantasy-casting a Hollywood version and pay attention and donate. This isn’t a story to consume. This isn’t a pinup for you to be inspired by. Zelensky and everyone else are human beings literally alive right now and the last thing they need is to be made into tragi-beautiful war characters, because they’re not CHARACTERS

An actual North Korean spy story that gets deserved to be made into a TV show/movie: the story of Muhammad Kansu, AKA Jeong Soo-il Jeong (affectionately called Prof. Kansu) was an ethnic Korean-Chinese man who was born to ethnic Korean parents in Manchuria and later attained North Korean citizenship in ‘63. He was trained as a spy in the late 1970s.

*extreme “cheese is under the sauce” voice*

The law does not decide whether something is historical distortion, or offensive, or stupid, or insensitive.
The law simply guarantees FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION because South Korea is a fucking democracy. The same people who declared “The Blue House personally approved this drama” are also the ones saying “we won” because a court ruled that a broadcast station is allowed to broadcast their drama

I’m sorry do you WANT South Korea to become an authoritarian state again??

Excerpt from longform article on Snowdrop
“One person who identified themselves as a production staff fir Snowdrop said, “the drama is made with the perception that ppl at the NSA/ANSP were also normal people.””

ilyosisa.co.kr/mobile/article… Image “There is some satire about the government regime of the time, but they’re not portrayed as very bad people. In the latter part of the drama there’s some story related to the red scare manipulation incident, but the drama doesn’t have a strongly negative view of the NSA/ANSP.”

For the way I translate on here, see pinned tweet.
TTL;DR sometimes I get paid to translate for a news article. Sometimes I do it for free for a friend.

Every single translation I’ve posted on twitter has been for free. Oh yeah there’s a LOT of BDSM fanfic in Korea, like more than I was aware of

Every single one of you, stop mentioning my friend in your replies and apologize in the comments here, on your main accounts. Their life is their own, they do not need to be dragged into this. Money isn’t the only currency my dear
Favors are my price

“World Citizens” (세계시민선언), a youth nonprofit that works to support citizens around the world resisting government violence, has warned they will file an injunction in court against Snowdrop. They describe the drama as a clear insult against the efforts of those who fought dictatorship, and argue that it could signal to other dictatorships that state violence can be glorified.

The family of Park Jong-cheol, who was the student who died after brutal water torture by the NSA, has spoken out about how #Snowdrop is causing harm to victims of the NSA. Park’s family point out that there are still-living families of those who were accused of being North Korean spies and tortured, and the drama recreates the narrative that was used against victims

Yes. This is the cluster of articles on daum news about Snowdrop. Almost all of them are discussing the history issue. Actually v relieved I didn’t bother with Ep 2 because one of the articles above is titled “The SNOWDROP controversy: Ep 2 was even worse”
