The tweet has since gone viral in Korean online communities, with many expressing horror at Variety’s review. Many expressed bewilderment at how a show consisting of the depicted scenes could ever make it to production.
- “Jennie is appearing in this? Why?”
- “Ew, dirty.”
- “I heard the director and the show’s scenario was completely changed, so the actors were basically scammed.”
- “Ew.”
- “Is this the movie (series) that Jennie is appearing in?”
- “Thanks to this, I don’t think I can listen to The Weeknd’s music anymore… I can’t act like I don’t know anymore. This is so uncomfortable.”
- “They really have strong stomachs.”
- “I am about to throw up.”
- “Wow..”
- “What kind of story is this? Are they crazy?”
