The reason why the controversial scene of 2521 is not just an evilly-taken screen capture

 (The video somehow can't be played)

It's even worse in the video

The female lead character is happy to see her boyfriend reporting about the 9/11 terror

Then she becomes sad because her boyfriend's face does not show up on the screen, only his voice

The male lead character calls her because he knows she's sad to not be able to see his face and then tells her that he puts a lot of attention on his outfits to look good in front of her

The male lead character tells her that he misses her, but he didn't know that there was going to be a war, and then he promises her to be back before the new year

.

As you can see, the female dan male lead character are dating here

I think they didn't really have to use an actual event that took the life of so many people for drama purposes

And there's no way the actors and actresses didn't know that the video of 9/11 was going to be used in the news scene because it keeps being talked about in the next episode. Not to mention that the male lead character says that it's a war.

-The screenwriters, directors, actresses, and actors really should apologize at this point. This is disrespectful.

-I wonder why did they have to bring up the 9/11 topic out of all the others... I'm very disappointed.

-It's very terrorizing for me to see the female lead character being happy to see his boyfriend reporting the terrible news. I mean, even if the screenwriters did write this scene. Why didn't the production team stop them? 

-I mean, why... Why this event out of all the others?

-What's wrong with this drama... And the actor & actress are fine with this scene?? Ugh...

-Did they not think that this scene could be controversial? I think the director is very very problematic...

-This is not heart-fluttering at all, it's getting me goosebumps all over my body...

-This is horrible... Is the female lead character a psychopath?

-Did they not think this could be controversial? Did they just edit it and let it air on TV without thinking at all?

-The actor and actress are stupid for just acting like they're told to in the script. The screenwriter and the director are psychopaths for creating this scene.

-And the way they made it look like the lead characters are the victim of this event is just way beyond the line

-Don't the screenwriters have to apologize at this point? They're crazy

Kim Sohyun's awkward acting, Kim Taeri's overhyped acting ... Flaws of Twenty Five Twenty One

 'Twenty Five Twenty One' aired their 4th episode on February 20, which got a viewer rating of 8.8% and continues to become the talk of the town. The drama takes place in 1998 currently receives attention for its heart-warming plot. However, the acting skills of Kim Sohyun and Kim Taeri, who both play the role of Na Heedo, receive criticism from netizens. 

Kim Sohyun plays the role of adult Na Heedo. She debuted in a musical show 'The Phantom of The Opera' in 2001. She is known as a veteran actress in Korean musical shows, but her unexpected awkward acting in this drama takes netizens by surprise. Her exaggerated vocalization, expression, and gestures, as if she's in a musical show, distract netizens' immersion into the drama. This receives attention because it's below netizens' expectations of her acting skills. 

Kim Sohyun doesn't star in dramas that much. She has appeared as guest in various variety shows. However, the last drama she starred in was The King and I that aired in 2007, 15 years ago. Because of that, some people are saying that she was 'mis-casted' by the production team.

Not only Kim Sohyun and her unexpected awkward acting, Kim Taeri also being talked because she couldn't meet netizens' expectations in this drama. She plays the role of young Na Heedo, which is the center of the drama that gets the most screen time. Her overhyped acting and vocalization have already been talked ever since the drama first aired. 

Some say that she talks like how characters in comics would talk, instead of characters in dramas. Not only that, netizens also talk about how high-toned her voice is and how her expression and dialogue are not in sync. However, the role of Na Heedo was created by the production team, not Kim Taeri alone. This character sadly has became a flaw in her career, previously she started off her career in the movie 'The Handmaiden' and drama 'Mr. Sunshine' and has been bringing her own characteristics into the role she plays. 

The drama received viewer rating of 6.4% on its first episode and 8.8% on its fourth episode, it's currently going higher as time passes by. It's the drama that has the highest rating among the other dramas on the same time plot. That's the reason why the acting skills of the main characters receive even bigger attention from netizens. 

theqoo

-Kim Taeri is a great actress. She's just Na Heedo herself. 

-Kim Taeri's acting skill is good. Kim Sohyun's is indeed awkward but it doesn't matter because she barely gets any screen time. 

-What are you talking about? Kim Taeri is a f*cking great actress.

-Kim Taeri looks like an actual high school student in this dramaㅋㅋㅋ Sometimes, she even looks like a middle school student. She's really cuteㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Kim Taeri's acting is really good, she looks like an actual teenager in her 10s. She's just Na Heedo.

-Kim Taeri's acting somehow reminds me of Lee Sungkyung's role in Cheese In The Trap. Yes, it's that bad.

-It's my first time seeing Kim Taeri's acting. She suits the character really well, I really enjoy this drama.

-Kim Taeri's acting skill is good, Nam Joohyuk's is bad...

-I personally think Kim Taeri is a f*cking great actress but I can understand why some people don't like her acting skill...

-Her acting is too exaggerated, I can't bring myself to watch it...

-How is it possible for her to look that young...

-What are you talking about? I can understand the opinion on adult Na Heedo, but Kim Taeri does well on playing the role of young Na Heedo. She's so much better and more natural than I thought.

-I love Kim Taeri but honestly, I really don't like her character in this drama

-Her voice when she yells really bothers me. Besides that, I like everything about this drama.

-It was definitely exaggerated on the first episode. But it's getting more natural as time passes byㅋㅋㅋ
