A hilarious part of #kdrama is how everyone loudly blurts out their secrets while people are standing around a corner eavesdropping. There's probably an internet analogy there.
Western (AU, EU, NA) #Kdrama fans, in a certain Western-dominated site, are complaining about AI use in recent productions. However, if you visit Asian-dominated sites, practically no one is complaining.
West = utter disgust about AI
Asia = it's just a tool, how you use it is up to you
