Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Ghost Doctor emphasizes story and character development over identity politics. The main focus is on the supernatural and medical drama, not representation for its own sake. Characters are cast based on skill and chemistry, rather than ticking diversity boxes, and the narrative rarely sacrifices plot for ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional Korean values, such as respect for elders, family, and professional dedication, are portrayed positively. Masculinity and femininity are presented in a balanced manner, with little sign of subverting gender roles or rewriting cultural traditions to fit a modern political agenda.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The show features a diverse array of characters in terms of personalities and worldviews, with genuine debates and differences of opinion. Traditional perspectives aren’t villainized, if anything, they help ground the story. Ideological messaging is minimal and not forced upon every aspect of the plot.
