Let's get something clear.
@thereal_thelmaa did not cry because of Big Soso.
Production and Ebuka followed their usual narrative and painted her as the villain, which understandably got an emotional reaction from her.
And dear @Ebuka, while it's commendable that you apologized to Thelma, it's interesting to see Big Soso being given credit for something she could never have done to Thelma in the first place.
Let's separate facts from the storyline.

Not gonna lie the reaction is starting to feel way too extreme. The production team already apologized, edited scenes, changed subtitles/audio, removed controversial parts, and even IU and Byeon Wooseok personally apologized despite not being the writers or directors.
At some point it stops being accountability and starts feeling like a witch hunt.
What’s also crazy to me is that Perfect Crown was literally marketed as an alternate universe fictional monarchy drama, not a documentary about Joseon history. People are acting like the cast committed a national crime when most actors are simply interpreting the script they’re given.
If apologies, edits, scene removals, and public backlash are still “not enough,” then what exactly would satisfy people at this point? Because demanding the entire drama be wiped off OTT platforms after everything that’s already happened feels excessive. It’s starting to feel like the 2021 cancellation of Joseon Exorcist.
And this is despite the drama actually being a massive commercial success, pulling a 13.8% finale rating and doing well globally on Disney+. I just feel so bad for IU and Byeon Wooseok.
