In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

'Personal Taste' keeps things light and traditional, with no real rush to virtue signal or tear down cultural touchstones. A refreshingly non-woke entrant from the early days of Hallyu TV.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The story focuses mostly on classic romantic misunderstandings and character-driven plots. Identity politics and forced representation are not front and center. Characters are multi-dimensional and develop through traditional means, there’s little evidence of narrative compromise for ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Family, traditional gender roles, and career aspirations are respected and present throughout the show. There’s mild subversion for humor around gender dynamics, but nothing suggesting a wholesale undermining of cultural or moral norms.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s a comedic mishap based on mistaken identity (sexual orientation), but alternative worldviews are not vilified or mocked. The show isn’t concerned with promoting a single ideology and keeps focus on interpersonal hijinks.
