Lim Soo Jung's new drama 'Melancholia' is facing backlash after posters drop suggesting a teacher- student romantic premise. We don't need to explain why a teacher and a minor student's relationship is a troublesome trope to base a drama on in 2021, and netizens are not having it! Especially in Korea's society where teachers are held to the highest societal standards, a plot where a 40 year old teacher seduces a minor might not be the best idea!
