#extraordinary attorney woo ep 8

[hualianschild]

falling for all the loser in love characters in a show/book that try to come off as cool and indifferent is so fun cuz their future partner be doing weird shit and embarrassing themselves and you'll be silently screaming and hiding your face cuz of the second hand embarrassment but then you realize this fool with heart eyes is definitely squealing like they got a high school crush and hypothetically kicking their legs and punching the air over that and that helps you calm down

High School 1x06 Hello, I'm Right Here

As Tegan and Sara begin writing songs together, they start to bond and grow closer in a way they haven't been all year; this complicates Tegan's relationship with Maya, as Tegan chooses to spend more time with Sara than with her.

"I just like you." How are teenagers this smooth with their crushes? And I hope Maya can be honest with Tegan about why she's really mad at her, if she even fully realizes why. Oh, the homoeroticism of teenage friendship. Fighting through the confusion and loud feelings to figure out what it all means.

Amphibia 1x16 Family Fishing Trip / Bizarre Bazaar

Sprig wants to spend time with Hop Pop on their family fishing trip, but Hop Pop's lady friend Sylvia, gets in the way. / Anne's music box goes missing at the Bizarre Bazaar.

"Tongue him? I hardly know him." And what does HP know about the music box?!?

Extraordinary Attorney Woo Ep 8 A Tale About Sodeok-dong II

Teasan Law Firm keeps a step ahead of Hanbada Law Firm as conditions lean in their favor. Tae Su-mi makes an offer to Young-woo.

Were we meant to hate Sumi? Because I felt really bad for her being emotionally blackmailed into continuing the pregnancy and giving birth to a child she clearly didn't want and/or wasn't ready for. Her face at the realization of who Youngwoo is. Going through every emotion in the span of seconds. The weight of it all.

Tvn little women has (as of ep 4):

Art hoe vibes. The sickest opening credits I’ve seen in a while.

Childhood trauma

A very awkward birthday party to set everything up

Three fucked up sisters who love each other with a fierce desperation

Women 👏 who 👏 are 👏 terrible 👏

A cute man in sweaters who can cook

A very suspicious man who is handsome and always around when there’s trouble

Murder mysteries and red herrings

Jason Bourne-esque “you are surveyed and could be attacked at any moment” suspense

Interior design and set porn. The contrast between austere wealthy living spaces vs cluttered poor living spaces

Plant hoe aesthetic

Questioning whether or not to sell your soul for stability

Money, money, money, must be funny, to live in a rich man’s world / late stage capitalism babey

Extraordinary Attorney Woo Ep 6-10

6: Lee Sa-ra!!! Loooove Woo Young-woo and Choi Su-yeon power team!!!

7/8: WHEN JUN-HO TURNED THE FLIRT ON AYYY

Can’t remember which ep this was but: Su-yeon hyping Young-woo up!!!!! She’s jealous which is valid but she doesn’t use it as an excuse to be an asshole!!!!! YASSSS QUEENSSS

9: holy shit I didn’t realize the hagwon situation in Korea was that bad?? Also Young-woo trying to flirt with Jun-ho and him being so confused is ADORABLE

10: !!!!!!!!!!!! WHEN A DISABLED PERSON’S FEELINGS AND OPINIONS ARE CONSTANTLY DISREGARDED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jun-ho throwing hands!!!!!!! THE KISS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also I hate how those two CEO ladies just treat Young-woo as a pawn >:(((((

[thedramanotes]

I've heard it repeatedly said by now that despite Min-woo's awful behaviour, he's actually the only one who sees her as strong, that he sees Young-woo as his equal.

I strongly disagree.

Min-woo doesn't see Young-woo as an equal adversary.

That implies inherent respect for her abilities.

He sees her as a threat and is jealous of every kindness shown to her.

YES, Min-woo doesn't infantalize Young-woo, BUT he dehumanizes her.

He doesn't want anyone to protect Young-woo or give her grace to adjust to the workplace at her own pace NOT because he thinks she doesn't need it. But because he's scared that she would become even stronger because of it.

And to his mind, the woman who should have been eliminated from the competition because of her disability but is now actively threatening his chances at bagging a permanent position at Hanbada, should not get any more help or kindness. Because her existence at his own level is an inherent unfairness.

So, in no world is this respect for Young-woo's strengths.

And Joon-ho, Soo-yeon, or the senior attorney being kind to Young-woo is NOT pity.

They all know she's incredible.

Each of them is careful to only step in and help Young-woo in the things that she struggles with. Like Soo-yeon opening bottles for her.

All of us need friends who notice our weaknesses and quietly help us. That's not disrespect or somehow failing to acknowledge our strengths. It's caring shown through actions.

So, please stop confusing Min-woo's apathy as respect.

That man-child is the one who doesn't need anyone defending him.

Dutch tilts in Extraordinary Attorney Woo (ep. 8) 3/3

Part 1

Part 2

Going crazy over two facts:

Woo Young-woo is tearing up at the end of the conversation but the camera does not tilt

Even after Woo Young-woo has left, the camera focusing on Tae Su-mi keeps tilting

Extraordinary Attorney Woo (2022)

[willievermakeithome]

just saying - Junho didn’t exactly look overjoyed by Woo Youngwoo’s confession this epi (which we ALL know he is, which means some*thing* is up)

[officialheroesofolympus]

Extraordinary attorney woo has so many incredible characters like?? Young woo is one of the most lovable, hardworking and passionate main characters I’ve seen??? Jun Ho is constantly kind and helpful to others and one of the best, most considerate and thoughtful male LIs ever?? Myeong Seok is a fantastic senior that guides and mentors his team so well and refuses to forsake his morals??? Su Yeon is complex and outspoken, speaking up for what’s right even if it may pose a disadvantage to her?? Geurami is one of the best friends ever and is unabashedly loud, confident and loyal?? Gwang Ho is selfless and has so much love for his daughter??? Min Woo is… there. I guess.

Extraordinary Attorney Woo - ep 8 thoughts

I am sooooo into Extraordinary Woo BUT I’ve been really annoyed with the Tae Su Mi Backstory and can’t seem to shake it.

Tae Su Mi was dating Woo Young Woo’s dad “when they were very young and didn’t know anything” and got pregnant. She broke up with him when she found out and (I assume by context) wanted to have an abortion. The father cries and begs her to have the child and give her to him with no strings attached AND SHE DOES.

AND SHE DOES! 

The show makes it seem like she abandons her child, is rude to her ex, and would rather live a fancy life than be a mom--but she does so much more than this? She literally has a child she does not want to have, hides from the public eye fo 9 months to do all of this in the middle of her schooling, puts her life on hold (as well as - I assume-- having to disclose the situation to her parents), goes through labor she never wanted to have to go through AND gives her baby to the father - AS PROMISED!

I don’t know about you but I really hated how they showed her in the rain being mean to her ex in that “wow what a terrible person who doesn’t want to have a child” type of way when in fact she literally sacrifices her life and body to do something she doesn’t want to do. 

Am I being too sensitive about this premise or are they hating on women’s rights to choose?

Extraordinary Attorney Woo [이상한 변호사 우영우] x ep 8

[wanderlust-in-my-soul]

Currently watching - August

Because I love a good little list 😊

Regularly updated during the month - colored = finished

Currently airing

180 degree longitude passes through us (3/8)

Damn, THIS IS SO GOOD. The cinematography, the acting, the relationships, the tension. I am blown away! Episode 3 delivered and I am here for it. If it goes this way I can tell it will be in my top watches of 2022.

Extraordinary Attorney Woo (12/16)

I love this so much! I love the character growth in so many of them. I guess like the most of us I just adore Lee Jun-Ho. He is a walking green flag! This is such a great series! Damn, my days have simply too few hours!

The Eclipse (3/12)

Ayan is so sassy and Akk is already so confused. I enjoy their progress with each other very much. The story so far is really good and I can't wait for the next episodes!

Vice Versa (6/12)

This is something else. Love the whole different universe thingy and I think the main couple really do have chemistry with each other. The concept of time is something else in this series...I haven't any clue that they are in this universe for a whole fucking year! What the...? But I enjoy this series and its color concept very much!

About Youth (2/10)

First episode made me tear up...I would say this is a good start for a really great and emotional connection to this series. Yeah, I like this one a lot.

Love in the air (2/13)

Hm...I am not sure after the second episode. People who are triggerd by sa or the hints of it...stay away? My moral compass might be a bit of, but so far I can not really enjoy it?

Takara-kun to Amagi-kun (2/8)

The second episode was so much better! I couldn't stop smiling because they're just adorable together.

What if (3/5)

Sometime a low budget drama is just perfect at the end of the day. The friendship in this feels real and so does the relationship between Smart and Peach. The episodes are very short, so you can't do much wrong watching this one.

Coffee Melody (7/10)

Update from the update...It is boring...Duan Yi is very self-centered...he is bland...the lack of chemistry is astonishing...I can't see any plot or progress. At this point (ep 7) it is just painful to watch.

Unforgotten Night (10/12)

Hell yeah! And with hell I literally mean hell! This is a very special series whose depiction of a whip-wielding “dom” will never leave my memory. If you like trash, go for it!

Mama Gogo (2/10)

There are too many series on the side to satisfy my need for second-hand embarrassment that I've neglected Mama Gogo a bit. There are sexy dancing men...so I will definitely keep watching, really!

Minato Shouji Coin Laundry (10/12)

The story of a coin laundry owner becoming friends with a high-school student and we have to wait where this is going. Well acted and kind of cute so far. The tension!!!! Damn!

War of Y (4/20)

This is a strong one. It is a slap in the face for the industry and the audience. Watching it doesn't make you feel comfortable and I enjoy it very much.

On Cloud Nine (4/6)

This had a strong start. I like the atmosphere and the scenery. All those flowers and the emptyness. I have my thoughts about all of this, but I keep them quiet for now.

My only 12 % (2/14)

Not quite sure about this one. The first episodes were kind of...boring?

Already broadcasted series

Finished in August

Series

Love Mechanics (10/10)

Okay, this series has its flaws. Do I care? Not at all. I love it. I am obsessed with War's acting and Yin's progress. I don't care about cheating storylines as long as they make sense to me. I love the chemistry, I love the angst and I love their love for each other. 10 out of 10 painful moments

SOTUS S (13/13)

Oh I liked it. And I like the character of Arthit. He is a small, insecure bean and I want to give him a hug and tell him everything will be alright. Kong still can be a little bit to much for me. 8 out of 10 pink milks

The Novelist (6/6) + Spring Life

Exactly what I expected. It is no high romantic bl. It is a high heat boys lust drama. I liked the concept and the story and the acting is really fine. It has its flaws, but I can live with them. 8 out of 10 erotic novels

21 Day Theory (4/4)

This was a cute one. Short but it still managed to transport everything it wanted to tell us. I especially liked the coming out to the family and the friends. And the ending? Sweeeet! 9 out of 10 pastries

Even Sun (6/6)

First I thought I don't get the point, but after reading some comments I realised there was no point in this. The story was...wait, what story? Yes, the ending was cute, but the rest felt rushed and with too many plot holes. 4 out of 10 plot holes

Senpai, Danjite Koidewa! (8/8)

Hm. In the end, it didn't leave a bigger impression than I initially thought. It was a cute story, but the last two episodes were...kind of off. Like they needed some kind of conflict but couldn't come up with anything that would fit the story. 6,5 out of 10 shy smiles

Dark Blue and Moonlight (12/12)

I am just happy I finished it. It was bad. In the end I don't know what the point of all this was. The story got repetitive in the end...they break up, they make up, oh they break up, wait no, they didn't break up in the first place. It is just messy af! This series could have ended after five or six episodes. Yeah, not a fan. 3,5 out of 5 "break ups"

History 2: Right or wrong (4/4)

It took me some time to like Shi Yi Jie. Adored the daughter and her relationship with Fei Sheng Zhe. The story is ok. The character growth is there and I appreciated it. Nothing to rewatch, but nice to watch on a rainy afternoon. 7 out of 10 Egg Fried Rice

History 2: Crossing the line (4/4)

Love it. Great story, lovable characters and a lot of sports. I like the arc of the main and the kind of natural way the two protagonists become closer over time. 9,5 out of 10 volleyballs

History 3: Make our days count (10/10)

Okay, my softspot was without a doubt the side couple. Thomas Chang is just beautiful and I loved every scene he was in. And I don't have a problem with the ending...I am sorry, but I think it was well done and it works with what the series wants to tell us: cherish every moment and make every single day count, because life is short in the and. 8,5 out of 10 shower scenes

See you after quarantine? (10/10)

This was cute. Something different because of the way it was filmed. I liked the characters and the short (very short) episodes. Nothing special and still something to feel good about. 8,5 out of 10 S21

Add*cted (15/15)

What the toxic fuck was that? Don't get me wrong. I liked it. It was, most of the times, well acted and the story was quite nice, but damn those two are toxic as fuck. And yes, it looks like I threw my moral compass overboard a long time ago. 7 out of 10 toxic traits

My Secret Love (12/12)

A sweet college-BL with a little bit of cringe about a forced BL-couple. Main couple had a high cringe rate for me personal. They were cute, but a little stiff. Secondary couple is an established couple with its own problems and very touchy. Liked their dynamic. Third couple...never thought this one would end up being my favorite, but they are so cute! Adorable! Over all it wasn't something that blew my mind. It was good for a one-time-watch. 7 out of 10 youtube channels

I promised you the moon (5/5)

Still, I can't stand Teh's character. He's just an asshole whithout empathy (in my opinion). He hurts the people around him and in the end he is the victim. No sir...Don't like this attitude and your apologies don't help. But I enjoy Oh-aew and his journey to his true self. I have dearly wished for a happy ending for Oh-aew and Q. I have to say, I didn't like Teh in ITSAY, but here...I truly disliked him till the end! And he is the reason I can't give it a better grade. Not the cheating that angers me that much, but the way he thinks he is the center of everyones world. 6 out of 10 self-centred bitches

His Man (11/11)

Korea's first gay dating show. It was great to see them bond with each other, not just romantically, but with cute friendships. The atmosphere was really good most of the times. Two people found each other and it was quite cute to watch. The fandom, especially on twitter, was toxic af which was very unpleasent. There was so much hate for real people...viewers treated them as couples from their favorite bl and got angry because the real person ddn't act as a fake character but as a real person...and the production played along. I love this show for the particiants and for that 10 out of 10 but the production needs to fix the misleading shit they cme up with! 10 out of 10 for the eight beautiful men

Check Out (12/12)

This was bad. The amount of times I shouted at my screen and asked him what the hell was going on is way too high for 12 episodes. The story is messy as hell. The acting is...not good. The plot...what plot? They could have handled the story in one or two episodes. The characters are unlikable. I thought Tee deserved better, but after the last episode? Honey, you're not better than anyone else. Yeah, glad it is over...Can't recommend it. 1 out of 10 unnecessary drama

Short films

The Immeasurable (Taiwan)

I like it. Don't read the synopsys on gagaoolala if you don't like spoilers. I enjoyed the chemistry between the two protagonists, I like the aunt and I do like the story. I like that it is shows how fragile a relationship can be if you don't talk and don't listen even though you have a strong physical bond. 8,5 out of 10 baskeball courts

I'll be with you (South Korea)

Short film about a funeral and the way people deal with it and how little we actual now about others. The ending was unexpected and sweet. It was a good, short watch. 7 out of 10 black suits

Tidal (Taiwan)

This was painful and heartbreaking to watch. I liked it (well, no shit, I like pain...). Once again, if you don't like spoilers keep away from the synopsys...and I guess from my opinion too...damn... 7,5 out of 10 marbles

[whatisgodtoanonbeliever]

Okay so time to list my thoughts for ep 8

1. I absolutely adored the breakfast scene with Geu Ra Mi just being like "eat it" and Young Woo finding out it's actually good

2. I love when friends call you a broke bitch to your face

3. Obligatory Fuck Kwon Min Woo to cover the whole ep

4. The Hanbada CEO showing up just to say don't lose and throw shade about the bulletin post was something I didn't know I wanted

5. Su Yeon yelling in her place of employment about how Young Woo not being hired was discrimination to start and then also taking blame as well was so good, especially when she saw Min Woo and got louder

6. The town was beautiful in the rain too, no clue what they're talking about

7. NOT THE MATCHING TAESAN UMBRELLAS

8. "Turning the residents against them" was not an angle I expected but should have

9. The little rat race music during the door-to-door scene was beautiful

10. Kang Ki Young will never fail me with comedic characters (this is about the sing along)

11. YOUNG WOO FEINTING SMACKING MIN WOO

12. I'm so glad her dad just told her and got it out there

13. The whole backstory got me feeling conflicted, a couple of things I need to sit with

14. The immediate case breakthrough after her dad just spilled his guts was perfect (along with the phone call being at 3 AM)

15. VIOLIN MAN?! HOW COULD YOU?!

16. Jun Ho bringing up the other night and it turning into a discussion of feelings in the middle of that open space was wild

17. I'm definitely on the fence with what I think will happen/what I want to happen with the Mom storyline, but I liked the confrontation

18. Preview looks like Jun Ho has decided he's free to flirt and sulk openly now and I'm excited to see how dramatic he is about it. And I wish these previews gave us more info about the next case! I'm dying trying to know what's happening with such limited info (you know, as previews are designed to do)!

[thedramanotes]

I keep thinking about Woo Young-woo's mother, Tae Su-mi and the choice she made.

The drama hasn't told us anything from her perspective yet, but there are some indisputable facts and some likely possibilities.

She was in her early 20s, a promising student with a bright career in law ahead. She fell in love and got pregnant and suddenly her whole future looked dark. She was considering abortion, but at the desperate pleas of the man she loved, she agreed to go through with the pregnancy. She stayed at home for 9 months, risked her reputation and her life to give birth in a home where she must have faced constant hostility from her parents, and then gave the child up.

I have a lot of admiration for this woman.

She didn't have to go through the pregnancy. She didn't have to take a long leave from school causing rumours to arise which followed her around for decades. She didn't have to stay stuck at home for so many months, in a likely cold household where she would have faced immense pressures to abort the child.

She went through all of it because the father wanted the baby to be born and Tae Su-mi respected that choice.

From Young-woo's perspective, her mother abandoned her and that's a fact too.

But I can't see Tae Su-mi as the villain when she clearly went through an extremely painful period of mourning for giving Young-woo up. It seems clear to me that she only decided to keep the child because she knew she could trust Young-woo's dad to raise her well.

And while I absolutely love Woo Gwang-ho, Dad, I can't see him as just the valiant hero.

He gave up his career and made his own life extremely hard. Then he made Young-woo the center of his existence to the point where he thinks he has the right to decide whether or not his Junior can use his daughter to needle her mother.

"You can do it just once! I will permit it once!" he tells the woman, as if hurting Tae Su-mi is a justifiable action and using Young-woo as the weapon is an acceptable price to him.

But Young-woo isn't his possession.

And Tae Su-mi isn't a villain for choosing not to be with this man.

I really do love Dad for how wonderful he is with Young-woo, but he did make that story way too much about himself.

[taccuinodiunasognatrice]

The Dutch tilts during that scene in episode 8. THAT'S HOW YOU TELL THE AUDIENCE HOW THE CHARACTER IS FEELING.
