This kind of sums it up for a lot of us, doesn’t it? The fact that they take my mind off the real world for a while helps.

    So interesting. I love that there’s an academic paper on this 😀

    Nice write-up. Glad they addressed the wrist-grabbing and other forms of violence. I often find myself groaning at the retrograde quality of the rom-coms I adore. That said, K-dramas are leagues ahead of Thai lakhorns which often normalize rape culture in popular media.
