STAR WARS RANT
Subject: REPRESENTATION ❤️
As an East Asian person, it is so refreshing to finally see an Asian Jedi in a leading role. How I’ve WAITED for this moment. Star Wars has taken loads of inspiration from Asian culture so it’s really nice to see actual Asian people in the franchise recently like Lee Jung Jae, Ming Na Wen, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee and Natasha Liu Bordizzo.
The Acolyte features a very diverse cast and it’s so wonderful to see people from different communities being represented and celebrated in such a huge franchise like Star Wars.
Also, I’m very much enjoying the show right now. It’s original, it’s expansive and it’s thought provoking. We’re finally getting an original tale, in an era which we’ve never seen before that is giving us a “why-dun it?” mystery. And the fan boys are mad about it??? Like what???
Lee Jung Jae is a legendary actor and I’m so glad he’s apart of Star Wars. This man has made me shed tears as Master Sol and I’m looking forward to the rest of the Acolyte series.
My uncle made a comment about how he can finally cosplay as an Asian Jedi cause he looks like Sol! Representation doesn’t stop at children, it extends to older adults as well.
In conclusion: to be represented in media, means you exist.
Representation allows us to see ourselves as heroes, villains and everything in between. Without representation, how could we ever dream of being more?

akutagawa buys atsushi insanely expensive brand clothes but atsushi doesn't know brands like that so although he knows theyre nicer quality than what he usually buys, he doesn't realize how expensive they are

Hierarchy
TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2024
Hierarchy (2024, South Korea)
Director: Bae Hyeon Jin
Writer: Chu Hye Mi
Mini-review:
Oof, what a disappointment. I feel like this wanted to be one of those transgressive teen shows we get in the West, but then it didn't have the guts to go all the way and ended up being like any other kdrama about the rich and the poor. And even then, it's just not good at that either. The writing leaves a lot to be desired, and it gets more boring with every episode. The acting is also all over the place; some of the actors do a solid job, but most of them are mediocre or downright terrible. Tbh, there are two things that save this drama from disaster: firstly, the director adds a lot of style and flair to the proceedings; secondly, sometimes it's fun to see a bunch of super pretty people all together in one place. But still, there are a lot of shows where you can find those things with much better quality. I wouldn't recommend Hierarchy, unless you really love someone in the cast...

THE WORST OF EVIL
GENRES: Action, Drama
SUMMARY: A cop goes undercover to take down one of the most powerful drug gangs in Gangnam but ends up questioning his own loyalties.
THIS SHOW HAS EVERYTHING: Pious jewelry, first loves, fishing trips, family pressures, ambitious DJs, lines of succession, hair-sprayed coifs, guns, knives, mistaken identities, Chinese-Japanese-Korean triads, flip phones, secret hideouts, abusive cops, and bourbon.
HOT TAKE: I don't care if both of these men are red flags in their own unique ways--I will root for them until the last drug den in Gangnam is shuttered.
There's some really great tension flowing through every scene of this show. Everyone has their own do-or-die agenda and they will all stop at nothing to see it through to the end. It's a treat to be a part of their struggles every part of the way.
