Smiling Scholar

Noémi, 25, Europe. This is my [mainly] k-drama appreciation blog. I'm still new to k-dramas but enjoying the heck out of them, esp sageuks and rom-coms. I'm also open to any other drama recs you might have. Lee Joon Gi is bae. I'm trash for SWWTN.

wook versus so: an Opinion

ok lol I lied here is the real #review. as I understand it I’m late to the party but you’ll have to bear with me while I type up my impressions of the whole Wook vs So debacle. let me preface this by saying that I do not sympathize with either of these characters, I am Team Soo all the way, but I’m interested in viewing them both through an objective lens, with my primary concern being developing character arcs and how they relate to major themes in this show.

so I saw someone ask in the tag if Wook had been this way all along or if he had changed somehow. well, personally, in the middle of the scene with Yeon Hwa I found myself recalling an earlier time when he was discussing killing with Soo. what rattled me a little at the time was when Wook said he had no regrets and no nightmares when he first killed someone at the age of eleven, because it was to protect his family. this is especially significant in light of Soo’s statement “he won’t change,” which seems a little eerie in hindsight. because you realize Wook really hasn’t changed. people say So doesn’t blink when he kills, but it’s honestly so much scarier with Wook because he genuinely does not have a moral issue with it. Wook’s morals exist along different lines than So’s do; they aren’t universal, they’re situational. add this to the fact that Wook has always been a fundamentally selfish character and his change of heart is much less than surprising. even his care for Soo is established on quite shaky grounds, more shaky than Soo herself can imagine because she is the opposite of Wook in this regard.
