A Weol-ju For All The Entitled Karens And Chads, Please

A Weol-ju for all the entitled Karens and Chads, please

Felt that poor guy trying to get a job at the hotel way too much

How he felt useless and pathetic for not being able to provide for himself, much less his girlfriend

He just wanted to know why he didn't get the job

Didn't want revenge

Didn't want the job

Didn't want his girlfriend back if it meant he still was unemployed

Just wanted to know why he'd been rejected

Such a small, simple request

As someone who measures my worth by what I do, watching it made me very sad

This situation with the world has not been kind to that tendency of mine

At least he had a happy ending though

I can be happy for that

Y'all, episode 5 had me SOBBING

When he realized that it was his wife who died?

When they were talking and he said he was scared of forgetting and she said she would remind him when he joined her?

When he said the dumplings tasted familiar, but he couldn't remember why?

Mood

every few business days, i think about hwi and seon ho and cry

No one told me this was going to make me cry so much

I'm only on the second episode but

This plot is just genius

I'm guessing we only see each customer for one or two episodes each

But even in that short time we see their stories, relate to them, feel for them

Kang-bae and Weol-ju too

The feeling of failure, the feeling of loneliness, these are things we relate to all too well

These feelings hurt, they're scary, but seeing these characters find hope and healing is why we watch these types of dramas

They might be fictional, but for real people, they're comforting

So for anyone out there who's hurting right now, I hope your 쌍갑포차 is on its way to a street corner near you, and that your own Kang-bae, Weol-ju, and Gwi come to lift you up

I hope you find your own hope and healing just like them

The man in the black fedora said wear your fucking masks.
