• Some netizens criticized an episode of "Our Blues" for glorifying teenage pregnancy

    Some viewers protested over an episode of "Our Blues."

    tvN's "Our Blues," which aired on April 23 and 24, was decorated with an episode of "Youngju and Hyun," where Jung Hyun (played by Bae Hyun Sung) and Bang Yeong Ju (played by Roh Yoon Seo), who raised love among their bitter fathers.

    The broadcast depicts the concerns and conflicts of those who found out about pregnancy while attending school.

    The broadcaster was an 18-year-old high school student whose goal was to leave Jeju.

    Yeongju did not miss the top of the school to get out of the village and was dreaming of entering university in Seoul.

    In the midst of this, the confusion of pregnancy came to the broadcaster.

    She also had contraception, but the pregnancy that came embarrassed the broadcaster and eventually decided to terminate her pregnancy.

    Jung Hyun conciliated, "Let's think about it a little more," but the broadcaster said, "How do you give birth? What about the university? Is our love great enough to bet all your life on it?" he predicted the situation realistically.

    The broadcaster who secretly went to the obstetrics and gynecology department had an ultrasound examination.

    The doctor said, "Look at this. This is what students do. Twenty-two weeks. Six months."

    At another hospital, the doctor told the broadcaster, "The organs are well-made. Do you want to hear my heart beat?" The broadcaster, who heard this, said, "Don't do it, teacher. I'm scared. I'm scared. I don't want to hear it," he sobbed.

    A netizen who saw the scene responded, "Why do you play the sound of a baby's heart to a patient who came to abort?" and pointed out that it was not intended to instill a sense of guilt that abortion was also murder.

    In the episode of "Yeongju and Hyun," I decided to give birth to Jung Hyun's faith after hearing the sound of the child's heart.

    This can be seen as a fresh love story between the two, but some viewers responded, "The reality and drama are different," raising a "painting controversy" on this point because it contains the subject of teenage pregnancy that has to give up a lot at that age.

    At the end of the broadcast, the broadcaster also showed Jung Hyun saying, "I trust you and go straight." Afterward, rain poured into the dry sky, and the two smiled at each other.

    At this time, even a sweet OST was installed, making teenagers focus on their love for adolescence rather than on the topic of pregnancy.

    Meanwhile, the drama "Our Blues," which drew attention even before the first broadcast, will air at 9:10 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday, given that a large number of top stars appear and is a new work by Noh Hee Kyung.
