#crashcourseinromance really shows the impact that #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo has had on how (and how much) #kdramas depict people with #autism. But this drama goes further: it normalizes telling stories with and about characters who have #asd the way we tell stories about everyone else. /end

That said, in terms of depicting a person with #asd as a principal character and even a protagonist, CCIR does something #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo didn’t do (and wasn’t trying to do): it makes the person with #asd be, like, just this guy, you know? /4

We can’t really talk about “representations of people with #autism in #kdramas” without mentioning #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo of course. Nam Jae-woo almost certainly wouldn’t exist as he is without EAW having come first - I won’t speak for scriptwriter Yang Hee-seung, but many of the other parties involved (e.g., the producers, the network) would not have been open to depicting an autistic adult that way. /2

Watching #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo for the first time. At first I was like 🙄 ah so she's a savant like rainman, so we're doing this.

But episode 3 was like a dagger through the soul. #ActuallyAutistic

We finished watching #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo series & I have #MixedFeelings on it. I did enjoy the storylines. I wasn't impressed by over the top representations of #autism . It's the 2nd #Korean #StreamingSeries that bothered me on this issue. While I appreciate that #KoreanFilmmakers are trying to be #inclusive by adding #FeatureCharacters on #AutismSpectrum - fell very short on how autistic folks behave daily. It's disturbing.

These film folks seripusly need real autistics as advisors.

I'm am currently enjoying the rather charming Extraordinary Attorney Woo.

I'm eight episodes into #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo... this show just made the civil litigation over new road construction not just interesting, but profoundly entertaining.

Is anyone else watching #netflix's #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo? I think I'm in love ❤️😍

OK, what's your favorite #kdrama and why? Preferably one where the main driver isn't teen romance. My fave so far is #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo

I have belatedly discovered that #SouthKoreanTV is the answer to all life stress. I'm going to sit here in front of #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo and #HometownCha-Cha-Cha and crochet, and all you fascists and fossil fuel fuckers and maskless wonders can go fuck yourselves.

I'm curious if any of my American #autistic connections here have watched #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo on #netflix and, if so, what you thought of it.

I feel quite spoiled for #autistic content and characters at the moment:

- I started watching #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo and I am LOVING it

- I found #ElleMcnicoll's brilliant #AKindOfSpark in the #library, and devoured it whole - the first #fiction #book
I've finished in years

- I (belatedly) read #HannahGadsby's article about her late-diagnosis #autism (whole sections of which I could apply to my own life with barely a word changed)

- I (very belatedly - only 10 years late) binge-watched #SomeGirls on #BBCIplayer and am already missing the characters - especially #ND Saz

Well done, world - keep it up!

Ho passato l'ultima settimana a guardare la serie #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo, e il non poterla recensire e segnarla come vista su Letterboxd mi manda ai matti. (Comunque mi è piaciuta abbastanza).

I finally started #ExtraordinaryAttorneyWoo, and it is as good as I hoped. We love some good autistic representation! It *does* strike me as a bit, “ShE's sO qUiRky!” sometimes, which I don't care for (the musical choices really don't help), but I think it gets it right more than it gets it wrong.

Wow...
Just Wow...
This series was really good.

OMG!
This is so funny and wholesome.
I really like it. I'm in episode seven now and it looks like, it might be better then Twenty-five Twenty-one. Well, different, but very fun to watch.
