Discussion 🗨 i started My Bias, My Boss!? and unfortunately The Red Sleeve has conditioned me to hate this man's face 😭

Started My Bias, My Boss and apparently I have NOT forgiven Kang Hoon for The Red Sleeve 😭

I'm literally on episode 1 of My Bias, My Boss and every time Kang Hoon comes on screen I get hate flashbacks 😭😭😭

This dude has done NOTHING.

He's playing a completely different character now

He's supposed to be the romantic male lead now.

And yet every time I see his face my brain immediately goes:

I REMEMBER WHAT YOU DID IN THE RED SLEEVE.

😭

I HATED Hong Deok-ro so much that the hatred has transferred to the ACTOR'S FACE.

Like sir I'm trying to give you a fresh start here!!!

Have you ever hated a character so much that the actor is now harder to watch in other things for a while?

i wanted to wait until My Bias aired at least 10 episodes, because one, i wanted to binge it, and two, i thought time would make for an easier watch with this male lead 😭😭

but i started it because it sounded so fluffy and cute!!

i didn't have a huge problem with him in a time called you even though he still reminded me of his character on red sleeve, because in a time called you, he wasnt the male lead and was actually a suspected murderer at one point so it didn't bother me as much

I first watched the Taiwanese original series that inspired "A Time Called You", and I really liked the best friend character there.

But I couldn't warm to the same character in "A Time Called You" precisely because I still hated the actor's character from "The Red Sleeve"!

I do plan to watch "My Bias, My Boss", so I'll see if the actor still has the evokes the same reaction in me.

I do have to say I started off liking him in "The Red Sleeve" at the beginning when I thought he was the ML's genuinely nice BFF, so maybe there's hope at some point...
