“I must again point out that honor killings have nothing to do with Islam, they are based on the cultures of the countries where they occur, which may have large Muslim populations.”

Sadly, the practice of honor killings is not exclusive only to muslim world. It has happened also in what u may call non-muslim world such as in Brazil: “according to human rights lawyer Julie Mertus “in Brazil, until 1991 wife killings were considered to be noncriminal ‘honor killings’; in just one year, nearly eight hundred husbands killed their wives.” (Wikipedia). Ah, we live in a sad sad world.

….I claim part of the Chil Woo line of feeling dirty after watching that toddler dance. I think I got the over-overload after reading about the new potential prostitot group you had in your other article of “Oh No They Din’t.” *twitch* Reminds of of various things I have to get after the kiddos (about the age of 4 to 6) for when I help teach over the summer and my breaks (kissing, flashing, etc.) sometimes. It was a bad time when the “Milkshake” song was popular…

Just wanted to toss in my twitch over that particular section of the rant, though I certainly get pissed off overall about this. I’ve had many TV sets screamed at over this and books tossed (not out – just against doors, walls, open areas, etc.), by the subject of this for part of a storyline. Women viewed as chattle…grrrrrr. The head shaving scene just…oh deity. I probably would be shedding a few tears while I watched that part, even with the recaps.

As another Muslim woman, I just wanted to back up what Anonymous (thank you) said above. I must again point out that honor killings have nothing to do with Islam, they are based on the cultures of the countries where they occur, which may have large Muslim populations. In fact, honor killings are just plain murder to most Muslims who follow Islam. There is NO justification for such killings based on Islam.

Javabeans, yes I agree, I feel bad for these women. I would be scared if something like that happened to me as well. Its also sad that this is still going in some parts of the world today.

So Orroz is coming to So Yoon again? Seems like he really does like her a lot. There’s going to be more tension between the Chil Woo and Orroz.

Thank you for the recaps.

I can’t stand sexual crimes, people’s views and hypocrisy towards it, but what I can’t stand the most is the women’s personal view like she deserves to stay there and take the crime.

I really appreciate goofy Chil-Woo for giving light messages like this that makes me like the drama even more, whether the message is intentional or not. I think I like the fact that I can’t really tell whether its message is intentional or not, because it doesn’t beat you over the head with it and makes it lighter to take. Show, not tell, is the best mantra for dramas who want to say something.
