For 2 of the last 3 weeks Extraordinary Attorney Woo has not only been the highest rated foreign language show on Netflix, it has also had a higher rating than any English show. It is the #1 show in the world but all I see on Twitter is whining about She-Hulk.

.Gregg Brazinsky 裴斗虎 writes that a renewed effort to improve relations with #Japan will have the best chance of succeeding if #SouthKorea includes the opposition, incorporates more nuanced historical understandings and invites the U.S. to play a constructive role. usip.org/publications/2…
