Since it's a jisoo drama, I'm pretty sure it will be bad because of her acting (no hate on her as a person tho), but I will be watching anyways. Hope I'm wrong
"showing how parties play their cards to look like they’re protecting the nation, while in reality… they might just be shielding criminals. And honestly, that angle feels uncomfortably realistic." It seems pretty realistic to me, to be honest. Just look the treatment of some of wwii war criminals by the allies which wanted their secrets and protected them for the sake of their "nations". That's how the world is.
Freedom of speech is a human right. It also doesn’t mean freedom from critique. You’re allowed to express…
Another comment: I'm pretty sure everyone is exclusionary at some point. I have seen, for instance, a lot of people in the comments criticizing what they call "religious people", which are, for them, evil. Are they? Maybe some. The Catholic church, despite some bad people, however, actually help minorities all around the world, including queer people (see the work of Cardinal Konrad Krajewski). What these people do? Probably nothing. But what I mean? Some people will criticize a whole group, like some religious people, just because they think this group hates them. Which is, in my opinion, pretty exclusionary also.

Okay, let's answer all of your points. First, I never said abortion was ideological neither homosexuality, which were pretty common among the world since ancient times, but I have said, only, that these people that feel uncomfortable with it shouldn't be criticized just because of that. People are scared of things that are different from them. This is a fact. Now, if these people think that killing these people they don't feel comfortable with, they should be criticized and even arrested in some cases. Plus, I'm pretty skeptical on the effectiveness of these type of media on convincing people that their ideas or thoughts and wrong, since they have very aggressive means of conveying this (in the case of Pro Bono, they used a villain which is a devout Catholic, for instance). My problem isn't with the message that, while I disagree, can be passed without insulting people. Which will cause the rise of the right in the future, very likely, as happened in the US, Brazil and other countries, where the gen z and young people are tired of these type of discourse, which helps not one a single minority group (which, btw, I am part of).
Real question right now. Isn't freedom of speech -- not hate -- a human right too? If yes, why are you so upset…
Plus, let's be honest, almost everything on this world is propaganda. You just don't care if it's the propaganda fits your beliefs. Chinese dramas, for instance, are heavily censored and have subtle political propaganda for the ccp. Same goes with North Korea movies, American movies (stranger things on urss, for instance)... Everything is a propaganda, and the same goes to South Korea shows, even the silliest of them.
Real question right now. Isn't freedom of speech -- not hate -- a human right too? If yes, why are you so upset and clearly angry because someone has a different opinion of a theme than you? Again, this is not a hate speech like: I want these people d*** or something, just people expressing their beliefs that this is wrong and aren't comfortable with it on media, which is fine. They choose not to watch it and comment on what they disliked about it. Pretty common. I am not a free speech absolutist and I believe certain types of ideologies (mainly the hateful ones) should be banned, but I don't really see your point. If you believe the plot is good for you because you have the same ideology as the writer, than it's your right. But it's not kinda contradictory to criticize people for trying to force their religion into things if you are trying to say their discourse isn't valid just because you don't like? Cause while I disagree with you, I think you are in the right for liking the drama and I, a humanist, I'm not going to say you are ignorant or dumb for this. This is not an attack neither an angry comment, but actually a question to which I'm curious about and I thought when reading your comment.
