I realised something recently - why I avoid shows such The Glory and palace harem dramas.
Bullying. There's so much bullying in them.
And because I suffered from a lot of bullying in different periods of my life, I do not like being reminded of it nor do I enjoy watching people suffer from it. It's stressful!
Revenge dramas however, are a favourite. I wonder why. Bwhaha.

@jodmentum unfortunately I think it's too real. I was once bullied by a couple of Korean housemates and I kept thinking, while they were doing it, "Wow! This is like a kdrama!" and they even had that iconic sneer bullies have in these dramas. Yea so... I can't watch dramas, especially KDramas, with female bullies. Stirs up too many unpleasant memories 😅

@liztai The Kdrama's that have high school bullying gut me. First that no adult is anywhere in sight when it happens, that it's not taken seriously and that people can be so cruel and violent.

@jodmentum it's OK, it's in the past, and it made me more empathic as a person as a result 🤗
Jody
@liztai I'm sorry to hear that and also disgusted that people are like that.

@EVDHmn @jodmentum same! I think when a society gets too competitive bullying just goes up. Baser instincts take over I guess.

@liztai @jodmentum I’m sorry you had to go through that! Bullying was always super confusing to me. It was like a virtual game of keep away. Only you couldn’t see the game board, but you felt it. This isn’t acceptable behavior to me. It’s why we support one another. Let others know we don’t stand for this type of behavior.
My partner says I’m too sensitive sometimes and maybe I am? I just dislike good people being stepped on! ♾️❤️
