1. [+750, -15] They’re basically asking to be paid off
2. [+403, -10] This would be understandable if the drama made up something that never happened but everything that happened was true
3. [+244, -8] Or they can use this as an opportunity to change their image since the drama is giving them free publicity
4. [+53, -7] ㅋㅋㅋㅋ But everything that happened is true ㅋㅋ
5. [+45, -1] Then why is Mexico and Colombia staying quiet with all of their depictions in other media?
6. [+30, -0] The character played by Hwang Jung Min still exists and lives in hiding in Suriname. I bet he lobbied the ministers to sue the drama.
7. [+30, -5] Suriname should be paying us for getting their name out there in the world
8. [+23, -0] I didn’t even know this country existed until today
9. [+21, -1] I can understand why they’re upset… it’s just like how Koreans are annoyed whenever movies depict our country as dog-eaters. It’s just that the facts are what they are and can’t be denied…
10. [+13, -3] Let’s be real, I bet the majority of the viewers didn’t even know this country existed
11. [+13, -4] What is this minister thinking? ㅋㅋ He can try to sue but they’ll lose… a drama’s just a drama. And Netflix is giving you free publicity to boot.
12. [+10, -2] The drama should’ve just made up a fictional country instead of naming itself after someone else’s country (TN: The drama’s Korean title is ‘Suriname’)
13. [+11, -4] While watching, I did think that it was an unfair portrayal of another’s country. The US is portrayed as being hard on drugs with a strong police force when their citizens are dying to drugs just as much as any other country.
14. [+7, -0] If that’s the case, then Mexico should have a ton of lawsuits open with the US for how their movies constantly portray them
15. [+7, -1] But what did your government do for the stay at home wives who were being used as drug mules without knowing a thing and being arrested en masse?
