It's a Netflix show about boxers. In order to level out the 'testosterone', they had the main character get on his knees before a woman-in-a-man's-role (loan sharking business, she's tasering punks left and right) to beg for a job.
You can say many things about Netflix shows, but 'subtlety' isn't one of them.
South Korea at large is the most feminist country on the planet I think?
Tons of female-only spaces, one of the first countries to have a female president democratically elected, and extreme shrew behavior from women imo.
This isn't a netflix thing, its literally just a Korean thing.
