It is always nice to see K-Drama tackling social issues.ย Hwang JungEum is the lead actress of the K-Drama "To All The Guys Who Loved Me" and she nailed the first episode with this scene where she answered back to her male superior looking down on her because she is a woman.
Korea's gender inequality and gender discrimination in society and especially in the workplace are serious issues (check the data at the end of the article for more about it). The scene in the drama points out these issues and Hwang JungEum had a smart attitude to it.
Hwang JungEum acts as a talented webtoon planning team leader. Her colleagues were praising her amazing results at work and were expecting her as the next director. This is when the director arrived at the office.
Director: "I didn't know you were after my position. But you wouldn't be the youngest. I heard that you need to double your age if you are a woman. So that means you're 68 years old right now. My gosh. I guess this is why women don't last long at work."
Laughing he put his hand on her shoulder and asked, "Right?! Ms. Seo?" in front of all of her colleagues.
