https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> Can we talk? I REALLY hope that something more happens with Ji-ah& #39;s character. As a Korean American woman, I need to say that 1) gumiho (9-tailed fox spirit) is NOT the same thing as a succubus. 2) There is a history of Asian women being seen as disposable &
the show thus far seems to reinforce that idea. 3) There is also a long history of Asian women as being sexual playthings and the literal dehumanization of Ji-ah to being a sexual DEMON and thus ok to throw away is REALLY problematic. This is on top of her already referencing
the idea that she is possibly seen as a "comfort woman" by Atticus. "Comfort woman," the euphemism for sexual slavery, the trafficking, brutalization, and murder of Korean women...Someone tell me that the show/book/story is going to treat her better? The show is fantastic in so
many other ways. @Ebonyteach just tweeted about the "thingification" and terrorizing of Black girls in this episode, and obviously the literal specter of Emmet Till hanging over the episode. But please don& #39;t let it be at the cost of Korean women...
