"But I think the media has a huge influence. If you watch TV, you see men who are perfect to their wives. I always say that Korean dramas are ruining Korean women. Recently, I watched a drama called 'Lovely Runner', and although I enjoyed it, I was really dumbfounded... Where is such a man in reality? A superstar runs to his girlfriend whenever he has time. Where does he find the time for that?"
A couple therapist/psychological counseling expert thinks the media has a huge influence in shaping women's perspective that a good man is one who makes a lot of money, contacts them frequently, and takes care of them. If there's only one flaw, they consider him a bad man.
-Dramas actually help with marriage because they make people dream of romance and happy endings that don’t exist in reality. You really don't know anything.
-???? What are you talking about? Without dramas, how would we even have any fantasies about romance?
-Why would we want to see real men in dramas?
-Yeah, the drama is the problem. They should make it more realistic: hidden cameras, dating violence, split bills, not meeting the bare minimum, stabbing, stalking~
-Do they think women are stupid and can’t distinguish between dramas and reality?
-Let’s make a drama about a woman catching an incurable STD from her boyfriend then.
-Is there a reason why we should lower our standards?
-We know there aren’t men like that in reality, that’s why we watch dramas for satisfaction.
-That’s why it’s called a drama.
-Why should I live with a man who doesn't even do that much? I'd rather live alone.
-If you want to see realistic men, why watch dramas?
-It’s porn that's ruining Korean men.
-Isn’t it right to marry someone who earns well, contacts you often, and is kind? Why should you marry someone who isn’t like that?
-That’s exactly why people watch dramas.
-Why would anyone watch dramas if they were realistic?
