Jung Hae In's movie dialogue criticized for being outdated

New developments in the movie "Mother's Friend's Son" by Jung Hae In and Jung So Min continue to receive a series of mixed opinions.

In episode 12 of the romantic comedy “Love Next Door” aired on the evening of September 22, Choi Seung Hyo (Jung Hae In) and Bae Seok Ryu (Jung So Min) officially began their romantic relationship.

The two even had a passionate kiss on the female lead's bed. However, the dialogue between the two characters received negative reactions.

According to Seung Hyo, he felt like he shouldn't be here. "I had dirty thoughts, things I shouldn't have thought about. Dark, reckless, unhealthy thoughts."

Hearing that, Seok Ryu replied, “I like unhealthy food. So feel free to think bad thoughts.” “What about bad things?” “You can do that too,” they both continued.

Wikitree notes that although the scene marks the transition of the main couple's relationship into adult love, the dialogue is still quite outdated.

“It’s like a drama from 20 years ago,” “This screenwriter has such an outdated mindset. It feels like we’re stuck in the early 21st century,” Korean newspapers quoted viewers as saying...

Meanwhile, on the Korean online community theqoo, many netizens expressed similar feelings, criticizing the film’s dialogue as cheesy and rustic. They predicted that the male and female leads would have been “embarrassed” when having to act out this scene.

Notably, despite the negative reactions to the above dialogue, the episode's viewership remained high, with an average of 8.3% in the Seoul area (South Korea) and 7.3% nationwide, maintaining the highest position in its broadcast time slot.

Previously, the old content of the film, the plot of the female lead having cancer, or the male lead following the female lead in a dark alley but not saying anything, making her panic also caused controversy.

However, it is undeniable that the film still receives support from a segment of the audience because in addition to love, it also exploits a multi-dimensional perspective on the conflict between parents and children, and the difficulties of young people in their journey to build a career.

Up to now, the film's knots have gradually been untied with humorous and touching moments.
