The case in this episode is very icky, I wish the story was different. The guy was super creepy and - in my opinion- delusional. And they using the children to help the defense felt really wrong. I love the show but this episode is not it.

I actually like how they handled this episode. To me they made it really clear that what the defendant did was wrong, and he understood that he needed to face the consequences for it. That's why he confessed everything and did not want his sentenced reduced. I think they heavily implied that he ended up going to prison at the end. At the same time, they're showing that the parents aren't taking into account that they're pushing the kids too hard, at the expense of their health. I read that this episode had impact on incoming legislation in Korea when they were trying to reduce the age of school, but I haven't actually looked into that myself. But that tells me that this is a very prevalent topic in Korea right now, and while publishing studies is helpful, something like this really grabs people's attention enough to get them talking about it.

For those that are curious, or the guys in case they want to read some of the comments, in S.Korea it is very common for children to go to a “cram school” of sorts right after a full day of school and sometimes they end up leaving at night time. So often times they go through a full day of just studying. For many kids this starts with them being very young, like in the episode. This, of course, leads to burnout and an abundance of mental health issues due to it sometimes continuing until they graduate high school. It can be a very brutal and abusive system, and cycle, to put children through. Sooo…. NOT excusing the weird behavior from the guy, but just explaining that not everything is an exaggeration. Very much like the bullying in other kdramas.

Some of these cases are meant to be murky. In many ways that's more realistic. Life is not black and white. Some of these cases are meant to make the viewers feel conflicted so we can question/think a bit more about norms in our society. We can agree that his intention is pure, but his method was wrong. 'Delusional' as a descriptor vs 'delusional' as a diagnosis are 2 very different things. I think that Woo Youngwoo tried her best to protect him legally, but part of the focus is also on Woo Youngwoo trying to learn about other people's thinking and feelings, something which can be challenging for someone with ASD. As for the impact of this case on Korean society...the outcome of the case at the end is not as important as the attempt to wake the parents up with the message at the end. The rest is up to the parents to act on. In relation to Oak's concerns about the dating - 100% understand. I work specifically with people who have intellectual disability and/or acquired cognitive disabilities as part of their medical/allied health/community team. There is a duty of care, but we also have to allow the dignity of risk. That's why it is so important to determine whether the person has the capacity of independent decision-making vs whether they need supported decision-making or an appointed decision-maker for specific types of decisions. If they are assessed as having the capacity to make such decisions independently or with support (usually through neuropsychological testing), the family and team around the person may still be very anxious/concerned about the risks, but we can only help minimise risks (e.g. educate them, help them set boundaries/strategies to keep them safer), not eliminate them. That's how we support the person while maintaining their human rights. It's great to see how much you care about this Oak. I hope your loved ones who need this kind of support receive it so they can continue to achieve many things in life as safely as possible even if they have to learn from some mistakes along the way.

As someone who watched the show if i pick an episode that made me uncomfortable and not sure I would choose this one , i am okay with the case and the story but i wish they made it less lighthearted and without the unrealistic kids scene in the court , but I guess the intention was to deliver how horrible it is to overwork the kids for studying, and no please let’s judge this kind of academic system it hurts me every time i see kids stressing and running around from school to academy to study cafe even after dark , the struggle is shown a lot in Kdramas , of course I won’t judge the kids who try hard to not fall behind but i will always judge the system and the parents for not making studying and resting/playing balanced

Aria Isara

I didn't see anything creepy about him. He's just eccentric. I'm not saying the events would not be creepy IRL but in the episode I don't think they showed anything creepy about the guy.

Nina

I teach at an English academy in Seoul, and while some of this is wildly exaggerated (locked classrooms, no breaks, all day, etc.), it is a more demanding schedule than children/parents in the West are used to. Where I teach classes are from 4-7 for younger students and then 7-10 for older/more fluent students. They come two days a week. Because I teach in one of the most affluent areas of Seoul, my students tend to come from very financially stable households and as such they are pretty well-traveled. So while they have two days a week of 6 additional hours of schooling, they also take frequent international trips and are some of the brightest, kindest, most well-rounded children you’ll ever meet. It’s an imperfect system and, exaggerations aside, anything that can draw attention to it in the hopes of making it better (because it’s not going anywhere) is ultimately good. This is one of my favorite episodes of one my all-time favorite shows (K-drama or otherwise).

Nina

There are lots of exaggerations about the system in this episode. I’m not saying it’s a perfect system, but they are presenting 학원 with some dramatic license. Some of the things they said are done at the fictional Mujin Academy are illegal and with CCTV in all classrooms, simply not possible. There are too many to get into here and a lot of nuance missing. Not disagreeing with you; providing lived-experience context.

Knightmare

Creepy isn't the word I'd use to describe him... maybe outré 🤣😭 He is EXTREMELY delusional

Marie RammGirl

Woo's gestures to get Jun-Ho's attention & your reactions to it was cutely amusing, but seems it worked with Jun-Ho FINALLY confessing his feelings, I'm interested to see how their relationship progresses :) Liked Quinn/Answer's 'Plot Plan Laughs' & your reactions to the Attorney's nicknames for themselves for the Children, wasn't expecting THOSE sort of names haha 😆 Regarding the case story, his heart is in the right place, after being aware of Children being pushed beyond their study limits & he just wants Kids to be Kids & have some downtime to have fun aswell as achieving their educational goals, but the method he did it in was very Unorthodox & could've approached the situation differently in a way that would not worry any parent, also in UK it is illegal to sell Children under 16 years old energy drinks, so that's why it was surprising to see, but aware that laws for stuff maybe different all over the world.

gen

There are also a lot of places who do unethical things from the hiring process to how they interact with the kids. I also have experience and know people who unfortunately have also had experience in very shady (to put it lightly) hagwons. Either way me saying "not everything is an exaggeration" obviously does not apply to the things that are.

Bekka NoyB

Maybe the oddest character/case they take on. Glad they didn't make him just a perv, but trying to help the children in his own weird way. Clearly has some mental issues, though. Kwon poop - very accurate nickname ;)

GoWonderful

He wasn't trying to not get punlshed for kidnapping, he was willing to accept the punishment because he knows what he did was wrong, he was trying for everyone to know what the kids were going through before it is too late. If rapists and murderers, can get probation in South Korea, that was what even his mother was requesting for, because he might not survive prison, he was already getting beaten.

Aria Isara

I can't place him but I've seen the actor playing the "revolutionary" in something else before... I'll have to google him 🤔

Terri Cooper

This episode came out when they were considering starting kids in school earlier than kindergarten in South Korea. It didn't pass because someone showed a picture of this character. South Korea has the highest suicide rate for young people in the world so the mental health issue of school and constant pressure is real. I'm very interested to see the reactions to an upcoming episode that deals with Oaks concerns about relationships. My daughter has autism so I know why he feels so strongly about the issue.

Shna Faruq

This was one of the episodes where idk who to side with. Because I personally do not want children to go to the forest with a strange man, no matter how good his intentions were. But then again, I also wudnt treat children the way those parents are doing. My mom was like that and it completely destroys ones inner self. You end up growing without knowing who u actually are. Still remember the day mom tore up all my story book collection simply because my grades went down a knotch. And to this day i cannot trust anyone with my personal belongings. That shit stays with u forever.

Tamara

It's implied the defendent ended up being sentenced to prison because Attorney Jung said to him at their final meeting that they could try to seek probation but it's likely not going to happen.... so they lost the case but I think this is the best outcome because it's more realistic. Also, it's an interesting case bcuz it's grey/not black or white and the audience is left to make up their own mind on who they think is right or wrong.

Mari Vaz

I just would never trust any adult (specially male) saying they care so much about children that they want to be around children all the time.... and then they use n benefit from the children's innocence to get their affection. That's textbook groomer/abuser behavior- the guy from this episode claims to understand how bad things are, but disregards the risk of his own actions He also totally ruined his mother business in the process.

Answer’s imitation of laughter at 57:37 was priceless and cracked me up hard 😂😂😂

Oak’s disappointed acknowledgment at 1:07:00 — “Oh boy. I suppose we are halfway through the season” — after realizing the romantic storyline between Young-woo and Jun-ho was actually happening, was kinda upsetting. Because I really hoped his opinion on this would change, but I guess not, since in the post-discussion he still said: “It’s concerning to me” 🙈 I wish he could enjoy it as much as the majority of the audience does. And just because an autistic person in his life maybe couldn’t find love or struggled with it, doesn’t mean every other autistic person or person with cognitive disabilities can’t either. I truly do understand his concerns, though. It’s just a pity that they prevent him from getting swept up in this love story the way he would with other shows! But we still have 7 episodes left, so I’m not losing hope that he’ll not only come around to the main couple’s relationship, but also genuinely enjoy watching it himself. P. S. I’m glad at least Answer and MQ were excited when Jun-ho finally directly told Young-woo that he liked her!

Ryan Towell

I liked this episode and I don't think they even showed the conclusion of the case. And I don't think it was important. I've spent time in Asia not recently but back in the 90's and pushing kids to work/school and no play was their culture. So obviously to commit a full episode to this subject it is still a problem. One thing we need to remember is their culture and laws are completely different than ours. And the translations aren't exact in the subtitles. So it's easy to judge some of these episodes but we're judging them based off American culture and laws. Gotta keep more of an open mind when watching these.

❣️ Vladlena ❣️

As for the court case in this episode — it was definitely morally complicated and controversial. Even though the guy did something very questionable, his intentions were benevolent and genuinely well-meaning. I liked the message behind it, but of course taking children somewhere without their parents’ knowledge is extremely inappropriate. But honestly, I think even Oak’s words: “I’m gonna take you into the middle of the woods and play — that’s highly problematic and creepy” — are another strong reminder that, unfortunately, we live in a dangerous reality (largely because of men), where situations like this immediately trigger certain thoughts, because we constantly see terrible stories like that in the news. I wish we lived in a world where none of us would instantly assume that a man taking children somewhere is a pedophile or an actual danger. But sadly, reality is what it is…

Rawaby 1204

I don’t think he said he wants to be around kids all the time , he replaced their time on after school study to camping , his mother business getting ruined is actually a success for him , since he is against the idea , also his mother is clearly rich he doesn’t even need to worry about her

Bekka NoyB

Yeah think they either changed subtitles or they differ per region? On my version Kwon called himself: Kwon Poop. Which IMO is way funnier. :D

YSM

Not everything is exaggerated. I’m Korean and went to school in South Korea, and at the English academy I attended, all students had to memorize English vocabulary and were hit on the palms as punishment depending on how many words they got wrong😅 It was even a pretty well-known academy. There are also many academies where students study for hours without breaks. I know this well because I attended several different academies in Korea.

cait

i really enjoy how they handled the romance. maybe it’ll be a grower for him 🙏

Isabelle V.

This is actually one my favorite episodes and cases from the show. It gets me emotional and crying each time I see it. I like that each case shows there’s more than one way to look at something. Most things are not black and white. And that’s the point because even for an attorney it’s not easy to work a case. I did agree with Mr.Bang’s ideology but not with the way he went about it. He’s not wrong just lives in a highly competitive society.

gen

Exactly. Also I’m so sorry about your experiences :/

gen

Yes, I agree. I hope David can see this too and remember that the same limitations don’t apply to every single autistic individual 💗 It has already been explained in the show, autism is a SPECTRUM. Young Woo is autistic yes but that does not mean she wouldn’t be able to give or deny consent. She is an adult and is obviously high functioning to several degrees. Obviously the relationship will not resemble one of non autistic individuals, however it doesn’t mean she has to live alone forever when she very obviously has developed feelings for someone and those feelings are reciprocated. Also she has a support system that looks out for her and she happens to like a really good guy who respects her and her boundaries (and needs). There’s no reason she should punish herself with perpetual loneliness.

A "Mujin Academy" run by a "Director Choi"... Dongcheon!?

the reporter put two and two together because the name of the Gimbap restaurant is literally Woo Young Woo. it didn't come from nowhere.
