نظاره‌گر بودن و رو برگرداندن


Explanation:
to look on: to be a spectator and watch what is happening without participating

to look the other way: If you say that someone looks the other way, you are critical of them because they pay no attention to something unpleasant that is happening, when they should be dealing with it properly.
