Let's say it is psychiatric autopsy:

1. What is "psychiatric autopsy"?

2. What did Poong do that is "psychiatric autopsy" vs. "ordinary autopsy to help their investigation"?

the better thing to do is to change nothing. all they need to know is the true, what's the problem with living…
Yeah. It's amazing how each country sees things differently and it's reflected in the existing laws.

There are things I like in Africa too. I can't remember which African nation but there's one wherein children can choose the name they want at a later age without restrictions.

That makes perfect sense, our name is our identity. We should be able to choose our first name, middle name, and last name.

I learned it from my elementary classmates, they have different names (first, middle, last) and it's different from their parents too. They said it's their culture to be given a chance to choose your own name, and majority chooses their own name.

Here in the Philippines, while we do not have that culture, pre-colonial era, we never had last/surnames. We used either just a first name or "son/daughter of". When the Spaniards arrived they introduced surnames … and turns out it was primarily for taxation purposes because they can not understand how pre-colonial local governments were "taxing" the people.

It appears that Bu Yeon intentionally saved So-i. There is more to their story. We know that they knew each other…
Oooh! That is a very good analysis!

Indeed, it was not Bu Yeon's energy seeping out, she did it intentionally!

Also, the target audience and cultural basis is Korea. The situation there, as far as what I've read, is not really good when it comes to autism and neurodiversity in general. As compared to other countries where the issues are different or more focused.

However, personally, as far as drama/films are concerned this is one of the few productions who were careful in how they portrayed an autistic. I rank it similarly to shows like "Adam" and "X + Y", to mention two.

I don't think this comes from the western culture because here in France I do know some married cousins... and…
Maybe not entire Western world but when you're Asian, in particular Asia-Pacific, anything from the West is simply Western. Just like how the West calls the anything Far East as Oriental or Americans call anything Asia-Pacific as China. ^_^

EDIT: To add, even though Australia and New Zealand is generally "Western World", they're not considered as one if you're from Asia-Pacific. Hahaha. (Some would even include Israel and Turkey in the label.)

> anybody can take any child as his/her own child.

This is not legally allowed in Western and most Asian countries. Yes, there are adoptions that doesn't go through the legal process but it's risky. In some countries the adoptive parents can even get a criminal record and the child will be taken by the government. In some countries, authorities are not strict unless they're forced or something happened that forced them to implement the law.

> when done, the child is considered a REEL member of the family, from heirloom to rights.

This depends on the laws, and in the absence of any specific law or there's ambiguity, the court will decide.

Here in the Philippines, adopted children can only inherit anything if (1) they are formally adopted (legally registered); or (2) named specifically in the Will (if there is one). In the absence of both … they are not legally qualified to receive inheritance, it will go to the nearest relative legally recognized by law.

> it's not like you need a child so you adopt one

There are people who need a child so they adopt one. This is usually common with couples who find it hard to have a child.

For you to quit when there are only 12 episodes left would mean you wasted your time watching 38 episodes. ^_^A…
Yep. It's fine to skip, and yeah episode 38 is really heavy.

But don't give up, just 12 episodes left. ^_^

A little patience. Real life is not all sweets and flowers. And these things do happen in real life and is a serious issue.

I am #ActuallyAutistic so does my opinion count? I give it 10 out of 10 from episode 1 to the current episode 12.

i remeber some one saying the possibility of "naksu" and bu Yeon being twins, are a smaller theory would be Jang…
That would be highly unlikely since Nak Su was already a little kid before Jang Uk and Bu Yeon were born. (At least the previous episodes seem to hint that Jang Kang and Bu Yeon were born on the same year if not the same day.)

Also, when Jang Kang left after sealing Jang Uk's magic, he supposedly tried to find the daughter of his friend (the star chronicler, Nak Su's father). He realized something … but he failed to find her, at least according to Maidservant Kim.

I was wondering about this part too? Mudeok experienced the headache. The door opened could be because of her…
Yep. Their mother can only open it if she acts on it. She has better control of her magic to ensure the door won't open with just her presence.

But in Bu Yeon's case it's different. More likely she is spending much of her energy in sealing Nak Su's powers which is probably why the magical doors can sense her even from a distance.

If Nak Su didn't react at that time and the way the scenes played out one after another while she was having a headache, then it's possible the magical worm worked. But the way the scenes were arranged while she's also having a headache suggests that she's the one the magical doors reacted to. The magical worm did not work.

There is also the possibility that Bu Yeon's powers are enhanced whenever she's within the Jin territory. Since hers and Nak Su's are equal, she was probably getting stronger than Nak Su, which could be one reason why she did not immediately get a headache. At this point (compared to the first time they visited Jin), they are so attuned to each other it took time for Bu Yeon's energy to be much stronger (and also, the first time, her energy was already boosted when she touched the broken jewel and then was also the one who carried it).

Again … just speculations.
