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

‘Strong Girl Nam-soon’ is unabashedly ‘girl power’ from start to finish. While energetic and entertaining, the show isn’t shy about promoting a hyper-competent female narrative while setting tradition aside. Expect overtly modern themes with little pushback from the story world itself.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The show’s premise revolves around several generations of women with superhuman strength, leaning heavily into identity-based storytelling. At times, character development appears to take a back seat to showcasing empowered female leads, with their abilities rarely challenged and competence strongly emphasized over nuanced growth.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional gender roles are largely sidelined, with masculinity often played for laughs or portrayed as old-fashioned. Family dynamics are reimagined to center around matriarchal strength, and male characters frequently exist in supporting or comedic roles rather than as collaborative leads.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative or more traditional perspectives on gender and family seldom receive sincere exploration, typically appearing via minor or stereotypical characters. The show generally upholds a univocal celebration of modern feminist values, with little room for meaningful pluralism.
