Heh heh, this is the sort of title that if it were to hit an American streaming service would be renamed something like 'Love Says It All' or something equally cheesy.

In the short ep zero on youtube, Lee Eunsaem described her character as different from the traditional poor and meek student and instead is strong and refuses to be bullied by anyone. That’s encouraging, though I’m watching this no matter what for Lee Jonghyuk.

Unfortunately “bitch” is a misogynistic word and while its usage might appear to fit girls and women who are bullies and abusers, its wide usage harms and denigrates girls and women everywhere.

Is it gonna be a weekly thing or all episodes at once kinda show

We were told forever this was going to be on Netflix, but only place I can find it is IQIYI...so? This is getting so tiresome with kdramas.

The title reeks of desperately trying to attract a younger, gen z audience with shock value and trendier, cooler language. Even if the plot synopsis appealed to me, the choice of the English title alone turns me off. And I doubt they’ll be doing anything to actually condemn the use of casual misogynistic language to describe female bullies (yes it’s bad even if they supposedly “deserve it”.). Gen Z audiences are not as stupid as these marketing people think - most of us know when we’re being desperately catered to and we hate it.

It’s a shame, really. I rather like Lee Eun-saem as an actress and had hoped she’d get a boost in popularity post-Red Sleeve Cuff, but she’s stuck playing second fiddle to newcomer idol-actresses.

Bitch is an extremely ugly word by any standards. I would prefer to think that some marketing genius did a very shallow translation of the original title in a rather sad attempt to be topical, and I hope I'm right. Having struggled with the grossly graphic bullying scenes in Glory, I hope this isn't going to be more of the same. It would appear that bullying in schools is endemic in Korea, since the subject appears in so many dramas. I note also, with disgust, that accusations of bullying levelled against actors or actresses, however fake and unsubstantiated (and most of them are) are enough to ruin a promising career forever.
