Why Her? Episode 3 Reactions
Ep 3: Romantic scenes observed! The chemistry between the two are so, so great. It makes me wonder if she knows who he is based on the touch of his hands, haha. This is the best episode yet, and has left me glued from start to end. I particularly love the bit where he stands up and calls Ju Wan a jerk. The acting is superb, every single emotion of Soo Jae is very precise and it leaves a very long-lasting impression on me.Furthermore, the show makes some direct attempts at conveying messages to the audience—in terms of the scene at the restaurant. There was a signboard which read “One day you’ll find your lover” or something like that. I feel that was impactful as it foreshadows their soon-to-come relationship in the following episodes. And that was exactly what happened. Spoiler alert, they kissed in the last bit of Ep3. The show is only starting to begin, yet I have so much to expect from it. Hope this turns out good, for this is the first time I have ever rated a series so high at 9.5/10! This particular episode was a full 10 for me, and I rarely give out 10s. Job well done to the whole production team honestly. They successfully conveyed the message of what a lawyer’s role is, and how Soo Jae slowly opens up to the cute Y1 kid (i forgot his name oops), making it significant as her characterisation is explicitly shown. Beautiful work of art!

SIDE NOTE, this is not related to Ep3:
**I do see critiques on how this work depicts ‘strong’ women as women with ignorant behaviour (Soo Jae), but I beg to differ. While I can definitely understand their POV, I feel that her past experience of being belittled ultimately led to her following what the higher ups are doing now—except she’s one of the higher ups now. It is simply nothing to argue about, IMO. In a world where your higher ups think you have little to no capabilities, then proving them wrong by climbing all the way up, is highly refreshing and a right she has to treat people with little regard for them. She has got no time to waste with people not worth her time, and she makes this clear right from the very start with her harsh demeanour. This drama also has instances where she does reveal her caring nature (e.g. revealing when she was molested). While many have said that was a foolish move to degrade other people who have been put in a similar situation as her (the Y1 girl who got molested by the professor), I believe that there is truth to that in some extent. Today, women are still silenced at times, and afraid to speak up. Can we blame them for it? The stigma exists because women are perceived as weak, and I think this drama may relate to some sufferers, as they are faced with a scenario similar to theirs. It is impactful in showing how as a community, more should be done, and hence when Group 8 exposes the molestation with irrefutable evidence, it directly addresses the main concern of women needing to speak up and how more people speaking up = better. The drama does a fantastic job at conveying this message and it is not something I can blatantly ignore. For Soo Jae to put herself out there willingly and to be bold enough, brave to speak up, makes this drama even more etched in my mind. If anything, I think the impressions of this drama bring more good than they do harm. I understand how society works in the workforce, especially in Soo Jae’s context, and I see how she grows to be perceptive in nature. Hence, I stand by my initial opinions. This drama is good.
As a fruity guy watching this, I am deeply affected to want to make changes to the world and support fellow people who may be suffering from such trauma. Rape, as a topic, is truly distressing to behold and this drama really tugged on my heartstrings. It evoke pity, and so many other complicated feelings that just can’t be put in words, and (more importantly) makes me want to embrace change. Women should be empowered in our society, and this drama is a stepping stone for that to happen.
Beautiful drama. My highest rated yet.
