Law School - Tumblr Posts
kdrama recs !!
i've been binging waaay too much for my own good and i need a place to yap basically :) let's start off with one i really like:
law school (2021)
let me tell you: i've watched this series thrice, alright. i love it. it's arguably a bit heavy on the use of legal terms which i think makes it all the more interesting. the main plot also revolves around politics a lot and generally requires a bit of thinking.
if you're looking for romance... this one leans more towards slow, and i mean slow burn. slow to the point of no actual romance WHICH IS A SHAME but we take what we can get. solhwi nation live off the never-ending longing gazes and that's okay. romance aside, i promise you the chemistry of the characters will leave you wanting for more.
tldr; law school students from the same study group gets heavily involved in the mystery murder case of their professor. yippie!
hospital playlist (2020-2021)
i recently just binged this one and the entire series (both seasons) is so wholesome! it's no surprise but this one also goes hard with the medical terms, having most of the scenes being shot in the hospital as well — but trust me it's actually a super light, no-brainer watch.
it focuses on the five main characters' lives, who are all doctors with different specialisations. from the heartwarming patient cases they encounter, the interns and residents they work with, the joys and hardships that come with the job, their friendships, and even romance that goes on between the medical professionals. slice of life, you know?
additionally, if you love yourself some good k-music, this one is for you! absolute banger soundtracks (they're hip doctors in a band). the characters are also really well-rounded. generous amount of comedy as well. just... go watch if you haven't already.
the good bad mother (2023)
[inaudible noises] this series is SO good. the story basically highlights a mother-and-son relationship. it depicts the rotten parts of it, how it got into a seemingly irreversible point of 'broken' in the first place, and how a series of further unfortunate events practically hands them a god-given chance to rekindle.
but it's so much more than that! it pretty much screams "it's my first shot in life!" and that makes it really easy to empathise with the main characters, despite the numerous questionable things they've done. things society would simply label as "bad" and "wrong" — but really, we all have our reasons. we're just people after all.
this one's a pretty intense emotional rollercoaster. it also contains the right amount of humour, and there's a bit of really cute romance as well. the plot is very well-written. and the actors, god. you will see how versatile of an actor lee dohyun is in just this one kdrama.
if you made it until here, wow, thank you, and please have a cookie on your way out. bye! :)
han joon hwi in every episode of law school (2021) ⠀ ↳ episode five
when the crumbs graduate from heart eyes to light physical touches
is my humour broken or is this the funniest thing i've read in a while
no but grown-up Joon-hwi, Sol A and Sol B represent the judiciary system almost as a 'Holy Trinity': they take on the three major court roles (as prosecutor, lawyer, and judge) and their instinctive morality (lawful, chaotic, neutral) also results in different approaches towards the law and justice
can we appreciate how both Joon-hwi and Sol A have roommates with 'bitchy stone cold professional' syndrome who they just...befriended by wearing them down with a mix of kindness, fierce loyalty and silliness??? galaxy brained approach

outgrow home - the podcast!
ʚ - introduction
A little bit of this personal project of mine, I will use it to talk about my life, culture and growing up. I use it as a personal diary, in 20 years or in 5 I want to know what I thought and what I believed, what was going on in the world, etc.
ʚ - this podcast is about my life, outgrow home is a love letter to grow and change.
I've been wanting to do something like this for years and finally I feel it's time, I decided that for now and while I buy a better cell phone it will be just a podcast and some tiktoks, probably next month I will upload videos to youtube on topics related to the subject.
I will also talk about studying as a neurodivergent, living in the academy where you are more an object of study than a colleague and all that.
This motivates me more than anything because I feel that you lose a lot of what you think, feel and believe when you grow so many conversations, topics and tastes that are never saved and for me this podcast will be just that.
I am supremely excited.
congratulations to me!
xoxo ana.

Book's:
Memoirs / essays
Not That Bad: Dispatches from Rape Culture : Cultural critic and bestselling author Roxane Gay has edited a collection of essays that explore what it means to live in a world where women are frequently belittled and harassed due to their gender, and offers a call to arms insisting that "not that bad" must no longer be good enough.
Maybe You Should Talk to Someone : From a psychotherapist, and national advice columnist comes a thought-provoking new book that takes us behind the scenes of a therapist's world -- where her patients are looking for answers (and so is she).
Cultish: The Language of Fanaticism : The author of the widely praised Wordslut analyzes the social science of cult influence: how cultish groups from Jonestown and Scientology to SoulCycle and social media gurus use language as the ultimate form of power.
Romance
Book Lovers : If Nora knows she’s not an ideal heroine, Charlie knows he’s nobody’s hero, but as they are thrown together again and again—in a series of coincidences no editor worth their salt would allow—what they discover might just unravel the carefully crafted stories they’ve written about themselves.
Seven Days in June : Brooklynite Eva Mercy is a single mom and bestselling erotica writer, who is feeling pressed from all sides. Shane Hall is a reclusive, enigmatic, award-winning literary author who, to everyone's surprise, shows up in New York.
science / philosophy
When god was a woman ; Here, archaeologically documented, is the story of the religion of the Goddess. Under her, women's roles were far more prominent than in patriarchal Judeo-Christian cultures. Stone describes this ancient system and, with its disintegration, the decline in women's status. Index; maps and illustrations.
It Didn't Start with You: How Inherited Family Trauma Shapes Who We Are and How to End the Cycle : A groundbreaking approach to transforming traumatic legacies passed down in families over generations, by an acclaimed expert in the field
Written in Bone: Hidden Stories in What We Leave Behind : Drawing upon her years of research and a wealth of remarkable experience, the world-renowned forensic anthropologist Professor Dame Sue Black takes us on a journey of revelation. From skull to feet, via the face, spine, chest, arms, hands, pelvis and legs, she shows that each part of us has a tale to tell. What we eat, where we go, everything we do leaves a trace, a message that waits patiently for months, years, sometimes centuries, until a forensic anthropologist is called upon to decipher it.
Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: How to Heal from Distant, Rejecting, or Self-Involved Parents : If you grew up with an emotionally immature, unavailable, or selfish parent, you may have lingering feelings of anger, loneliness, betrayal, or abandonment. You may recall your childhood as a time when your emotional needs were not met, when your feelings were dismissed, or when you took on adult levels of responsibility in an effort to compensate for your parent’s behavior. These wounds can be healed, and you can move forward in your life.
feminism / law
Justice and the Politics of Difference : This book challenges the prevailing philosophical reduction of social justice to distributive justice. It critically analyzes basic concepts underlying most theories of justice, including impartiality, formal equality, and the unitary moral subjectivity. Starting from claims of excluded groups about decision making, cultural expression, and division of labor, Iris Young defines concepts of domination and oppression to cover issues eluding the distributive model.
The Hundred Years' War on Palestine: A History of Settler-Colonial Conquest and Resistance, 1917-2017 : Original, engaging and striking, Palestine – A Biography crosses historical events, never-before-explored archival materials and accounts of generations, dealing in a simultaneously sober and emotional way with the facts of a tragic confrontation between two peoples who claim the same territory.
Down Girl: The Logic of Misogyny : Misogyny is a hot topic, yet it's often misunderstood. What is misogyny, exactly? Who deserves to be called a misogynist? How does misogyny contrast with sexism, and why is it prone to persist--or increase--even when sexist gender roles are waning? This book is an exploration of misogyny in public life and politics, by the moral philosopher and writer Kate Manne.
Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity : Since its publication in 1990, Gender Trouble has become one of the key works of contemporary feminist theory, and an essential work for anyone interested in the study of gender, queer theory, or the politics of sexuality in culture. This is the text where Judith Butler began to advance the ideas that would go on to take life as "performativity theory," as well as some of the first articulations of the possibility for subversive gender practices
Bodies That Matter: On the Discursive Limits of "Sex" : In Bodies That Matter, renowned theorist and philosopher Judith Butler argues that theories of gender need to return to the most material dimension of sex and sexuality: the body. Butler offers a brilliant reworking of the body, examining how the power of heterosexual hegemony forms the "matter" of bodies, sex, and gender. Butler argues that power operates to constrain sex from the start, delimiting what counts as a viable sex.
Hood Feminism: Notes from the Women That a Movement Forgot : oday's feminist movement has a glaring blind spot, and paradoxically, it is women. Mainstream feminists rarely talk about meeting basic needs as a feminist issue, argues Mikki Kendall, but food insecurity, access to quality education, safe neighborhoods, a living wage, and medical care are all feminist issues. All too often, however, the focus is not on basic survival for the many, but on increasing privilege for the few.
Aquí no ha habido muertos : El ciclo de terror, corrupción y tragedia impulsado por las drogas en Colombia no terminó con la muerte de Pablo Escobar en 1993. Justo cuando los colombianos estaban listos para dejar atrás el legado asesino de los cárteles del país, se desarrolló un nuevo y sangriento capítulo. A fines de la década de 1990, los grupos paramilitares de derecha con estrechos vínculos con el negocio de la cocaína llevaron a cabo una campaña de expansión violenta, masacrando, violando y torturando a miles de personas.
Poem
Good Grief : When Brianna Pastor released her self-published poetry collection, Good Grief, she was blown away by the outpouring of support from people who reached out and said, “Yes. Me too.” For anyone who has struggled with questions of identity or coped with serious emotional issues, including grief, trauma, anxiety, and depression, this collection will help you find hope on the other side.
Instructions for Traveling West: Poems ; A vivid and inspiring poetry collection about what’s possible when we heed our instincts and honor our intuition, allowing ourselves to strike out for new territories of love, pleasure, and peace.

Book review ! Book Lovers by Emily Henry
“Nora.” He just barely smiles. “You’re in books. Of course you don’t have a life. None of us do. There’s always something too good to read.” ― Emily Henry, Book Lovers
Rating 5.0 / 5.0 stars
If you're looking for a romance book that feels like it's really for young adults and not written for a 14-year-old girls dreaming with a unrealistic romance, this is the book for you.
The protagonist of a woman obsessed with her work which she loves, with a complex step that led her to develop an excessive sense of responsibility for things beyond her control and a low self-esteem that makes her have little self-care with her mental health, she is a woman with her priorities very clear, she lives for what she does, her career motivates her and makes her happy, She loves books and lives surrounded by them, she doesn't want children and doesn't dream of a small and quiet life, she loves New York City and its thousands of people, she is a complex character but very easy to empathize with, her previous relationships ended for several reasons but the most important one is that none of her ex-partners wanted the same as her.
“So if you’re the ‘wrong kind of woman,’ then I’m the wrong kind of man.” - Emily Henry, Book Lovers (im gonna go insane)
We can learn a lot from her character, the process of understanding how the way she dealt with this excessive responsibility for the guilt she hadn't healed and that when she met someone who really had life plans, personalities and desires similar to hers I could connect with him without changing who he was, without making spoilers I think their relationship feels so real and beautiful that it's a little painful to cry the last 40 pages like a baby.
I loved that you both loved the books, you don't know how much I loved it.
A super enjoyable easy read with an ormance that makes you laugh and cry in less than 400 pages, I really can't stop thinking about this book.
The message of these books for me were:
You don't have to feel bad or unlovable for having life plans other than getting married, having kids and a small, calm life. Loving big cities, being crazy about your career or not wanting to have kids makes you just as capable of receiving a love
It is a great quality to put your family first but if you don't take care of yourself and pursue your happiness you will not be able to.
When something works with someone you don't have to change or sacrifice any part of yourself, God just makes it happen.
we should put 1 book hotter each time we finish a book.
i love so much reading, my happiest memory is reading a book by my favorite author in the middle of one of my worst depressions and laughing and crying from pure happiness after months of just sadness , truly nothing in this life touches me like books.
"But “good taste,” even in books, hasn’t always been used to help people connect to the things they’re likely to enjoy. It has often been used to police access to power, marginalize communities, and reinforce existing privilege, and to argue that some specific experiences, perspectives, ways of creating art, and entertainment are “universal human experience.”
On the Bad Binary of “Good” and “Bad” Literature by Josh Cook one of the best articles I have read in a long time! a spectacular read I highly recommend it!
What if we remove classism and eurocentrism from your productivity tips? rethink on what you put and don't say full nonsense.
it's pathetic and useless
Anxiety and depression in adults with autism spectrum disorder: a systematic review and meta-analysis
- Matthew J Hollocks, Jian Wei Lerh, Iliana Magiati, Richard Meiser-Stedman and Traolach S Brugha.
Wait so does king sol A like like professor yang??? Like I’m basing this question off of her undying devotion to proving him innocent and her asking him to eat with her in ep.5
I am confusion lol
Thoughts anyone????
Law School ep.15 (PS. SPOILER ALERT, don’t read if you haven’t seen it yet and don’t want to know lol) ‼️‼️
HOLY MOTHER OF PEARL!!! I got a thousands things running through my mind, but omg that was my fave episode thus far; and LET ME TELL YOU WHY:
1. All the miniature plot twists happening left, right, and center had me reeling! (First with Yangcrates “backstabbing” jiho, then Prof Kim “helping” Congressman Ko, and even our resident lollipop loving-word vomit-study group rat switching sides through the whole episode with his video uploads LOL)
2. KANG DAN!!!! Or should I say KANG SOL A!!! Need I say more???!!?! OMG she literally stole the episode. Our queen sol a’s duality! (Tbh I knew kinda what was gonna happen before cause I saw a spoiler on IG lol but it still was just as satisfying to see Ko’s shock when she pulled her wig off)! ALSO - I frickin love the “dark” concept sol a was hot and that’s a fact
3. Seeing Kang Sol B’s “soft”/human side throughout the episode was high key satisfying and don’t pretend like you don’t agree with me
4. When joon hwi and attorney park geun tae were being so stealthy and found the hideout = very satisfying hahaha (also attorney park is such a little shit/scaredy-cat BUT I love him for that haha this show is so intense and he provides a good amount of comedy relief that isn’t too over the top)
5. Also, YANGCRATES + PROSECUTOR JIN =???!!! Idk if I’m misunderstanding what’s happening but like are they forming an alliance or something?? Cause I can get behind that haha. I kinda like the whole arc that’s developing here - “my enemy’s enemy is my friend” (like sorta not really what’s happening but you get it lol)
And last but definitely not least...
6. SOLHWI 😱😱🥺😍
*** The solhwi content over the past few episodes have just been too much for my little heart to handle***
a) the fact that joon hwi automatically, no questions asked, silently agreed to sol a’s proposition of doing the mock trial competition made me melt inside A LOT
b) the “I’m grateful for her”... BITCH WE KNOW YOU’RE WHIPPED (I get it though, they got bigger fish to fry at the moment so romance is obviously gon be on the back burner for all them) (SIDENOTE: I think sol b kinda get that there may be something deeper going on between joon hwi and sol a, OBVIOUSLY because she’s curious why he cares for her so much)
c) the little high five (which is so subtle compared to other romantic grand gestures we see in most kdramas) was just so solhwi you know what I mean? Affection has SO MANY different manifestations, but like we do not see a lot of affectionate skinship in this show (like at all lol, except between sol a and ye-Seul and byeol), so even though it’s subtle, it’s still displaying a glimpse of light and love for these characters. (I may reading to much into it but idc lol)
OVERALL, the episode was just *chef’s kisses*💋🤌
I can’t believe there’s only 1 episode left omg but honestly such a great drama!! I highly recommend this to anyone who hasn’t seen it yet! 10/10
If you say you don’t like JTBC’s Law School...
You’re probably someone who’d help assemblyman Ko...
WANTED: Someone who speaks/writes Korean Hangul
So that we can contact the jtbc law school writers and they can tell us what they REALLY intended SolHwi’s ending to be
Pretty please & thank you 🙏🏻 😭🥺🥺❤️❤️
I laughed WAAAYY to hard at this lololol
Lol I’m also just imagining all the LEGIT law students searching up the “law school” tag looking for study tips and other discussion forums and all they find are solhwi and law school rants hahahahaha #sorrynotsorry
