Wait. Isn’t plagiarism a problem with written texts? And isn’t plagiarism something that people get upset over when they’ve discovered someone has tried to graduate from a college or university with a plagiarized thesis or dissertation.

"This is my original idea drawn from my own thoughts and put down on paper."
"Uh, no, that was my original idea ten years ago, and I can prove it."
"Does this mean I can’t go on to be a Nobel prize winner in astrophysics?"
"It means you can go on to be a great hamburber flipper at McDonald’s."

However, regarding a poster . . .

From the website Tech Dirt (Friday, Aug 28th 2009 09:20am by Mike Masnick):

Time and time again, we’ve heard about people claiming “plagiarism” when the truth is that it’s just someone else who happened to have the same, or a similar, idea. It often happens with books and movies. For example, multiple people are suing over the claim that only they could have come up with the idea of a child who has a secret life as a rockstar, and Hannah Montana stole their idea. But actual copyright infringement or plagiarism (two different things) require some actual copying — not just people having the same idea.

I know that laws governing intellectual property differ from country to country, but raising a stink because two posters happen to look the same?

Absolutely hooked on Bad Prosecutor.

D.O. was great in Swing Kids. He is knocking it out of the park in Bad Prosecutor. As an officer of the law who dresses in track suits and carries a kendo sword, he is hysterical, believable, and such a talent.

And boy, can the dude run!

Gonna check it out now [ Bad Prosecutor] since I love dramas with a touch of comedy now. I realized that if we revolve our life in only serious subjects we stop enjoying life to the fullest. After all, laughter is the best medicine.

I am watching this one and I hope part 2 is just as good.

It’s on PRIME. Do you have that one? The young girl is so perfect for that role. They are two cute young couple that has chemistry and the story is entertaining and cute, funny. Let’s say a 10 in my book. I tried adding a request but they don’t have KOREA as a country to chose from. That is so weird…:open_mouth:

I do have that. I never even think to check there, as their options were always so limited or nonexistent. I guess they are getting more in the game like everyone else, too. Thanks for letting me know.

Does Viki really not have Korea as an option for title requests? I’ve never tried it myself, but how could that be possible? What a huge oversight on their part.

To get back on topic, in our weekly watch parties, we have been watching “If You Wish Upon Me” and “Beyond Evil.” Both of these are quite excellent, in my opinion.

Yes, this drama is overrated. The first episodes were good but then then I lost interest in the story and the characters.

Do so, I won’t say it is bad, maybe you will like it, there is some fluffy stuff too, if you like that. It’s just that it might not be really balanced with the heavier topic, or maybe because they tried too much of suspense always keeping the “secrets” with here a bit there a bit, if you finish it tell me how you felt about it.

After Sh**ting Stars, that felt so slow to watch for me, I decided on this drama, and it’s pacing quite up there. Liked it a lot, even with the violence happening …

And now I switched to binge a drama I wanted to see a long time ago, but didn’t because of 100 eps, considering it’s only half an hour each it is as long as a weekender. I am not too far into it, but I like it, I really enjoy family dramas, even you get some annoying characters, but since there are many it doesn’t bother me that much.

I need something to entertain me, a good laugh I found with GAUS Electronics… it reminds me something, can’t remember what, but the show is hilariously funny with some funny romance. I just love each character, kudos to the writers writing so lively!

If you are in a mood for a movie I suggest this one. It has a surprising twist in the end.

Law Café has been holding my interest very well. Not the most compelling K-drama I’ve ever seen, but a good, solid, entertaining one.

I’m watching two shows, both completely different, both great shows:

Ashes of Love
A fantasy story with immortals, powers and a love triangle.
Do not read the ‘about’ section, unless you don’t mind the spoilers. (I’m currently at the beginning of ep. 41)

Why Her
A modern day story about a struggling lawyer, with each episode we learn a bit more about her cases/her collegues/her students. The first episode didn’t immediately catch my attention, but after that I just couldn’t stop watching, because I want to know what will happen next. (I’m currently at the beginning of ep. 8.)
