im so dang proud of seohyun. i know u don’t follow kpop that closely but like, it was pretty well known that one of the driving forces behind her leaving SM entertainment was they wouldnt let her pursue acting like she wanted and she ended up missing out on some great roles and career opportunities. girl finally gets her freedom and this is the kind of storyline she goes for? i simply must stan

Oh, I definitely didn’t know that and yeah, the fact that she got out and went for a role like this? With the cachet of being not just part of SNSD but what she was within SNSD? You’re right to be proud! And it seems a role that brings sympathy and frames us positively, which still isn’t a given (anywhere at all). The very fact that there’s so little else canonically f/f in SKorea’s strong media scene even this year shows the significance of roles like this.
