for an almost complete topic shift, HOLY FUCK I LOVE #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo!!! I've only seen two episodes so far, but I love #autistic Woo Young-woo so much and Park Eun-bin is a delight to watch
there's definitely things that aren't great, like Attorney Woo saying there's nothing more pitiable than having a disability, but I can also believe that's just a thing other people have said to her that she's just accepted (or possibly that she's saying it cynically bc she knows that's what people around her believe). and there's also things like the second episode involves a #queer character, which feels really brave, considering South Korea's stance on #LGBTQ issues
I also really enjoy some of the ways they portray, for instance, her sensitivity to loud/too much noise, or the way thinking about whales calms her nervous system and helps her understand things or put things together in a way her neurotypical colleagues don't
