A family across three generations, and what changes underneath a household that doesn't
15 March 2027
Before the screening#
Watch the assigned episodes. Track one expectation — about duty, marriage, or work — that a parent holds and a child eventually doesn’t.
In the screening#
We follow the household across its timeline rather than any single episode, asking at each point what “family” was assumed to require, and who bore the cost of meeting that requirement.
Afterwards#
Keep this week’s notes on generational change in view for week 7 (education) and week 9 (1980s Korea) — both return to family life under different pressures.
The spec
What you bring to the session. Written so a reader can tell whether it has been met without asking you.
- you have watched the assigned episodes before arriving
- you can identify one expectation placed on a parent or child that a later generation in the drama no longer accepts
- you can connect one family decision to the wider economic change happening around it
