PD of K-drama Lovely Horribly Makes Wholly Insensitive Remark Comparing Bad Acting to Sewol Ferry Grieving Parents

View Comments

• I'm gobsmacked. It's actually hard to be that insensitive. I pity his poor family, and of course the families of the Sewol tragedy-- they've been through so much. Thanks to that comment and the fact that it stars PSH, I might start thinking of this drama as "Horribly, Inappropriately".

  Btw, why does PSH's face look so different in that second shot? It's not just the hair.

  • "Horribly, Inappropriately" LOLOLOLOL

• Well this shows the PD is such an insensitive jerk. Should be removed immediately. Put yourself in the victim's shoes and then you will know what one goes through.

• I read the pd is a female, not a 'he'. Pd's name is Kang Min Kyung. And it is VERY insensitive. And she only apologized after it became viral.

• All these so called controvery are becoming more cheap. Although it’s an insensitive comment from the pd but seriously it’s a waste of space.

  • How is this revelation a waste of space? The PD is seriously wrong to consider that the extreme grief of parents who lost their children in a sinking incident and who couldn't immediately recover their bodies (even some of them still haven't found their children's corpses) is a comparasion for "exaggerated" acting.

• Huh. Now we know this drama hired multiple trash.

• Shit this trash drama will hit rating.

• Want to grab audience towards drama create a controversy. This is a horrible trend

  • I don't really see causing controversies in a drama set as a trend because in my knowledge, there were only a few this year (Return, Four Men and now Lovely Horribly). And this news instead made me turned off by the drama.

    • Live had a controversy as well.

• I think disgusted is the right word for what I felt when I read the article.

• As another poster said, I think the PD is a woman, not a dude. It was insensitive but I'm rather surprised it went public making me wonder if there isn't a good vibe on the set overall. It will be uncomfortable for the actress who was getting criticized for her acting because they gave such detail on the scene being discussed that it is going to be obvious when it is aired.

  • Yes, maybe there are some staff who don't feel comfortable with PSH as lead... Could create bad atmosphere...

    • no wonder,too many royal protocol,maybe.lol

• ahh, no wonder the pd has no qualms hiring PSH in this. good to know.
