[theqoo] TWENTY FIVE TWENTY ONE THAT STIRRED UP A 911 TERROR SCANDAL FROM THEIR COUPLE SCENE
(T/N: for context, there was a scene in 2521 where they are showcasing the main characters' long distance relationship. The male lead is in NY reporting about the 911 terrorist attack)
Those are the responses on Twitter
"So the 911 terrorism became Yijin's trauma? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It's so dumbfounding that I can only laugh.
There are victims you know?"
"The 911 terrorism and war.... I hope that they don't use it for emphasizing the main characters' love"
"'The female lead who is smiling while looking at her journalist boyfriend reporting on a disaster....' The writer is crazy... do you know the 911 terrorism affected the whole world? How can you use it like this..."
"2521, that f*cking trash drama is doing all sorts of f*ckery. They are crazy for using the 911 terrorism for their couple's relationship. Are their psychopaths?"
"I watched 2521 for the first time today and I was so disgusted that I had to switch channels. They took scenes of the 911 as is and had the gold medalist female lead wait only for the 911 terrorism news to show up just so she can look at her reporter boyfriend report on the 911 news...... I thought that the producers' filtering has finally broken down."

When he was reporting about the 911 terrorism, only his voice appeared so that's what the female lead said
"Eyy what the?.. Looks like I'll only hear his voice today"
The male lead who called the female lead right away
"(I called) because I thought that you'd be disappointed since my face didn't show up today"
"How did you know?"
"Did you know that I wanted to look good for you so I paid attention while filming my standing shot?"
The female lead being all excited
And this was Naver TV's title for that cut
"Kim Taeri's sorrow during their long distance relationship ㅠㅠ she only gets to meet Nam Joohyuk through the news"

1. Wow.... this is an international topic on top of it
2. Stop consuming from this insensitive writer. Disgusting
3. The issue isn't the broadcasters but I'm surprised at how nobody told them not to do it?... There were so many people who participated in this so what was everyone doing? Seems like they didn't feel what was problematic about this
4. This is kinda scary. Only our country will shield this. The foreign countries will 100% be furious... just why is the writer like this? Can she really do such thing as a human?
5. Hul they are crazy...
6. Crazy, there must be people overseas watching this too. They are just airing it like this?
7. I'm pretty insensitive in general but as soon as I saw this, I knew that it would be controversialㅋㅋㅋㅋ Seems like there are even people shielding this
8. This drama is seriously odd
9. Crazy, what an embarrassment to our country
10. The more the story progresses, the more scandalous it becomes
