Episode notes
[Spoiler Alert] Grace discusses the show Inspector Koo (2021, JTBC) written by Sung Choi. Grace delves into the writer’s feminist logic behind conceptualizing Inspector Koo, inspired by the rage and sorrow over digital crimes, sex trafficking, and misogyny in Korea. Inspector Koo demonstrates how having empathy and understanding for the villain helps the heroine come full circle with her own inner battle. This part of the show works as an effective metaphor for accepting one’s own shadow to recover one’s wholeness as a person. Follow @KDramaSchool on Instagram, Twitter and TikTok.
