The descending darkness of fat acceptance So I started watching a new Korean drama today ('W' for my fellow Kdrama addicts) and I have noticed something very disturbing...fatties. Both as bit parts and as background characters, like a lot of them. Now anyone familiar with Korean dramas will know that it is very rare to see a fat character, and if you do they are openly shitlorded about their weight at every opportunity. But this show, geez. One of the side characters is a literal land whale and I have seen so many fatties in the background that it's all I can pay attention to. Another recent Korean drama also hired a whole bunch of hambeasts to play weightlifters (Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo) so is this a thing now? Are the most shitlording of countries getting in on this fat acceptance bullshit? Has anyone else noticed this shit is spreading like a god damn plague? One of the reasons I started watching Korean dramas in the first place was the lack of fats, feels like now there is literally nowhere you can go to escape them.
