We also see culture where women lead the story as primarily for women, regardless of whether the themes explored are universal.
We can’t help but reduce culture about women down to gender in a way we simply don’t for men. Part of it is related to its billing as a show simply about female friendship. That said, the Korean thriller has an English dub option, My Brilliant Friend doesn’t. So why isn’t bigger? One answer could be the show’s subtitles, although the popularity of Squid Game indicated foreign languages aren’t a deterrent to audiences. It’s as much a piece of social commentary as it is a revolutionary look at the way women are silenced and trapped by the patriarchy, as well as a nuanced look at class struggle and privilege.
A Brilliant Friend deals with sexism, violence both political and misogynistic, family, love, shame and oppression.
