Attorney Woo Ep 3
Added 2023-07-06 15:22:18 +0000 UTCSorry for the delay here, sad episode!
Comments
I felt so angry watching this episode of Attorney Woo because people (who are ignorant of how autism works) just only see the outside of them and not inside of them. It hits home because I have autism myself. While it's not as severe as the defendant in this episode, it's still a form of autism I live with every day... At least I'm glad Myung-seok realized what he said when he first saw Young-woo is reflected because he did the same thing as those other jerks said to people with autism... That's at least the part that made me happy... We'll see how this goes as I'm watching the show too...

Danger Tomato
2023-07-07 01:55:06 +0000 UTCI was so confused until you were talking about the title of a show. I think you’re talking about that right? I’ve never heard of that show so I can’t be sure lmao

Bree
2023-07-06 22:44:28 +0000 UTCThis show definitely hits you in the feels a few times.

2023-07-06 22:40:02 +0000 UTC@Bree Oh hahas naws you’re good 👍🏻

2023-07-06 22:39:32 +0000 UTC@ Bree You’re welcome
blabber90
2023-07-06 22:15:52 +0000 UTC@blabber90 Yes I'm aware, I said that I understand. Again, thank you for your words. (didn't mean that in an ironic tone tho, upon re-reading I see it could be seen as that)
Bree
2023-07-06 22:10:14 +0000 UTC@Bree Listen as I Said your opinion is valid, so I have no problem with that. As a Korean American myself knowing how the culture works I’m just trying to share the insight and clear out any misinformations you or others may have like regarding the deliberate choice of the character’s name. Trust me though the name…Koreans won’t make the connection. If you really want me to spell it out for you I can…But yea , if you don’t like how it is that’s that and if others think others wise that’s that too. Simple.
blabber90
2023-07-06 22:08:24 +0000 UTCI don't think is easy to affirm that for a whole audience, but I appreciate your words.
Bree
2023-07-06 22:04:24 +0000 UTCIf you’re from any other countries other than the Koreas its possible you’ll think of the North Korean dictator since his so infamous people can make the connection but this is a Korean drama embedded with Korean culture and intended primarily for the Korean audience to watch, so many Koreans watching this wouldn’t think of the North Korean dictators name or make the connection like that.
blabber90
2023-07-06 21:52:01 +0000 UTCIt's ok if you say it was the point, I get it. I just don't like it. It's ok if you don't agree too.
Bree
2023-07-06 21:41:22 +0000 UTCI see what you're saying, but my opinion won't change. If I can associate the two, other people can, you know? Other people, Asian or Western, can make that connection and I don't think it favors the character.
Bree
2023-07-06 21:38:39 +0000 UTCAnd many others have been saying here…yes they made his character look in your terms ‘evil’, (although I didn’t see him that way) cause that was the point of this episode and No, it was not a deliberate choice for his name to sound like the North Korean’s dictators name.
blabber90
2023-07-06 21:32:01 +0000 UTCKim is an extremely common surname. You’re grasping at straws, man.
Dooly
2023-07-06 21:30:29 +0000 UTCI'm not judging based on anything besides "they made this character look evil throughout the entire episode, could the deliberately choice of his name be part of it?" What I'm saying here is very simple.
Bree
2023-07-06 21:25:03 +0000 UTCKorean culture is engrained in the series. That’s the point. Judging it based on Western ideologies is just wrong.
Dooly
2023-07-06 21:22:32 +0000 UTCIt’s all about how you take it in, so your opinion is valid just like everyone else’s here but ima just say that was exactly the point of this episode. If it rubbed you in the wrong way, I say it did its job in portraying and showing and possibly educating the audience on the realistic discomfort and situations that actually goes on in society today.
blabber90
2023-07-06 21:11:35 +0000 UTCI'm speaking as an autistic person nitpicking on an autistic show, not Korean culture. Other autistics also think the show is ableist on many parts. I just don't like this episode and how it was handled.
Bree
2023-07-06 20:59:12 +0000 UTCthis ep was to show how ableist people can be so i dont see the problem here. it's basically how they portrayed buddy in green mile
britt
2023-07-06 20:45:21 +0000 UTCThing is, do you have any Korean ancestry? If not, speaking on their culture is making you come off as ignorant and uninformed. You're acting like one of those annoying far left white saviors speaking for them when you yourself were not raised with their culture or knowledge.

min
2023-07-06 20:00:05 +0000 UTCThis turned into an ethnicity discussion when that wasn't even my point.
Bree
2023-07-06 19:52:27 +0000 UTCFor me this is simply an allegory to mock both at the same time.
Bree
2023-07-06 19:48:43 +0000 UTCI'm aware the names are similar and not the same, what I'm actually saying is: In my opinion they made it sound so similar deliberately to mock the autistic character and the dictator alike.
Bree
2023-07-06 19:46:51 +0000 UTCAs a Korean American, all I can say is your ignorance towards our culture is shining through.
Dooly
2023-07-06 19:43:56 +0000 UTCFuk dis where jjk😭
Ashe
2023-07-06 19:14:57 +0000 UTCAs a Korean American who also has a Korean name, I can say we do share same names (with few differences at times) but that’s because we are from the same ancestry after all.
blabber90
2023-07-06 18:56:30 +0000 UTCThis is a very problematic thing to say because literally North and South Koreans can have the same names. The whole episode was so show how discriminatory people can be on people with physical and mentally disabilities. This is also coming from the webtoon as well.
Lashaune Brown
2023-07-06 18:49:43 +0000 UTCFYI- North Koreas dictator’s name is actually a common name given in South Korea. So relax y’all. Plus the guy’s name is not even the same as the dictator’s anyways . It sounds similar but it’s not the same.
blabber90
2023-07-06 18:47:46 +0000 UTCthis ep def made me cry, the ending, the dad at the beginning flashbacks to her as a child, all of it broke my heart 10 times over 😭 like ik she cant help it but he loves her so much, at least there's that.
Destiny Simon
2023-07-06 18:41:59 +0000 UTCThey could have chosen a different name but, I'm not surprised that they would intentionally make fun of him. They have more of a reason to do so than anybody else.
Hughjass
2023-07-06 18:23:30 +0000 UTCwhat are you even trying to say? This doesn't make much sense, man.
raeven b.
2023-07-06 18:20:25 +0000 UTCDamn, dug deep down for that one huh?
Hughjass
2023-07-06 18:17:50 +0000 UTCwell that was the point? they did it on purpose to showcase how because ppl thought this way abt him that he committed that crime against his brother, which was not true and that was the lesson here
Destiny Simon
2023-07-06 18:09:28 +0000 UTCRegardless of some issues people had with it, I think this was a strong impactful episode. It shows how someone who has a disability or just on a basic level is different is seen as less or not as a person. People often make snap judgements about someone without seeing beyond what they think they know. As wrong as it is, people often see someone who is disabled as not as intelligent or as inferior. They totally miss that they are people just like everyone else who have struggles, talents, and feelings. I think this episode illustrated this very well.

2023-07-06 18:04:43 +0000 UTCAs someone who is (physically) disabled, let me tell you, this week alone has been full of grown ass strangers saying and doing the most out of pocket shit based on assumptions just because I’m disabled lmao. It’s always exhausting and this episode and particular and another one down the line hit different because of it every time I watch.

2023-07-06 16:45:23 +0000 UTCShit trash bro them trying to spin oh all autistic people the same they not he has the brain of a child literally she can think like an adult that’s not the same 😭

2023-07-06 16:43:35 +0000 UTCThey won’t react to it most likely as they reacted to the main series and won’t watch the spin offs

Danger Tomato
2023-07-06 16:35:54 +0000 UTCIt is reaching to some extent, obviously there are a few regional differences when it comes to names but his is…not an uncommon Korean name at all. It was gonna be something like that regardless considering siblings tend to share at least one syllable to show that they’re part of the same generation. It’s just tradition. Also, completely different combination of syllables — not even the same name. Overplaying his size for comedy was annoying because Korea’s general opinion on weight and appearance is extremely biased, but his behavior I wouldn’t totally classify as ableist because the show makes realistic efforts to showcase characters with different levels and types of disabilities. (Other people’s reactions to him *are* ableist, though.)
Bria A.
2023-07-06 16:32:12 +0000 UTCI'm hoping they wait until the full season gets closer (probably in early 2024), but this isn't relevant to their Attorney Woo reaction.
Merfhew
2023-07-06 15:51:52 +0000 UTCThe name can be seen as reaching but then again, they also could have chosen any other name.
Bree
2023-07-06 15:50:31 +0000 UTCThe name thing is not a big deal and I doubt intentional. It’s not like North and South have unique names, I doubt it’s the only time it has happened in a show either
Kyle Llewellyn
2023-07-06 15:46:50 +0000 UTCY’know? I was gonna joke about his name but that it woulda been in bad taste so I shut up lol
YaBoyRoshi
2023-07-06 15:46:10 +0000 UTCHonestly I don't like this episode as much, thought it was a bit ableist. The fact the sons name sounds like the North Korea dictator, how they made him seem big and terrifying in some scenes and incapable in others, just rubs me the wrong way.
Bree
2023-07-06 15:42:06 +0000 UTCYehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
