Yet another City Hunter post

So Jin Pyo is like this evil character but I like him despite all his evil deeds. And in fact, I think he's more realistic than Yoon Sung.

The scene that shows me that Yoon Sung doesn't quite understand anything is the fight scene with the woman. Now. I understand what it's trying to show: Yoon Sung is awesome, he's got a kind heart, he would never hit a woman blah blah blah.

I also understand why some other viewers would love it. But for me, it shows he really doesn't have his eye on the prize. If he's really trying to get these men so that he can lead a normal life after it's done, then he must be single-minded. (That he will continue to be the City Hunter even after he's done with the group of 5 is not something I have ruled out at all).

While fighting that woman, all he needed to do was knock her out so that he could continue with his task. Instead, he had to have a longer fight, become creative with a tie and everything just because she's a woman. In the end, what did it do? It took up time and since the woman was conscious, she could confirm to Nana where she should go.

There's also some sexism at play here. A woman with her job wants to be treated just like all her male counterparts. Now, if some dumb enemy decides to go with his own idea of chivalry or whatever the hell it is, she can definitely use it to her advantage but we can't (or can) turn a blind eye to the sexist undertones. It doesn't ruin the story especially as I know what the writers were trying to say as well as the moves they wanted to show us but there's also this hidden message in it.

Now, if the writers are having YS make all these mistakes so that he can toughen up, then fine. It's possible because there are consequences to his actions. He didn't get away quick enough and ended up shot.  But if it's for some bleeding heart stuff, then they need to just STOP! lol
