hello docsu/deokgi nation
abbot is robby's work husband and collins is his work wife but dana is his work co-parent. hope we cleared this up
Sangwoo standing up and calling out the third clause of the consent form while the square guard was trying to shut down other players by calling on the second clause was so sexy. Sangwoo out here fighting fire with fire and winning

Any Sangwoo headcanons?๐๐ป๐๐ป
SANG-WOO?? ABSOLUTELY. MILLIONS. BILLIONS EVEN. iโm genuinely so glad i get this opportunity to talk abt him bc i feel kinda icky irl rn ๐
sang-woo HATES being late to things. being overly late to a function gives him a nauseous feeling (same)
he plays sudoku and he would ABSOLUTELY play other nytimes games.
he briefly tried contacts but he hated how they felt in his eyes so he gave them up
he would refuse to go to therapy because he sees it as wasted time in which he could be working instead.
his motherโs name is jang hye-ji
he regularly suffers from headaches/migraines. he also probably knocks himself out with ibuprofen.
PANICS when heโs sick. thinks heโs doomed, even when heโs got something small like a cold. partially because being sick makes him feel like heโs taking unnecessary time off and heโll fall behind, but also because the sickness fucks with his head and makes him super delirious.
extremely good at locking tf in and not getting distracted when it comes to work. will literally eliminate any distractions. (that's why he and gi-hun lost contact. /j)
has to drink insane amounts of water after waking up otherwise his throat will be usually a pain in the ass all day. that's what smoking all FUCKING day and attempting suicide by carbon monoxide will do to you. hoe /aff
likes chocolate (milk and dark) but fucking hates white chocolate. (same. that is just pure projection) he likes his chocolate INSANELY bitter though.
not too much of a sweet tooth. too much sugar makes him sick. prefers umami and bitter foods.
(free this man from the clutches of chainsmoking please. how is he not dead.)
so funny when people make sang-woo the evil ex from gi-hun's past. he would NOT be acting like that in 2020 if he had ever actually hit. he would be 300% crazier but in a completely different way
I actually cannot get over how the pitt is so good at like. trusting its viewers to catch onto things while fully not giving any information at all. I don't know if I explained that correctly. but we literally are not told a single thing unless it's immediately relevant to the story or one of the characters.
we don't learn about mckay's ankle monitor until it goes off, and we never even learn why it's there because it's not immediately relevant to anything going on. we don't learn the details of why langdon needs the pills, only that the pills stem from something that happened to him. abbot's prosthetic is never mentioned until the very end because, shit, dude, he's probably in so much pain after that shift he needed to take it off to relax. nothing is explained because the characters know what they've gone through and they don't feel the need to talk about it, or it's not necessary for them to talk about it. and when we learn about stuff from the environment or the way the characters are acting, like with princess and perlah's friendship and javadi's insistence on being taken seriously and literally everything between collins and robby. it's all storytelling through implication and sometimes it's really obvious (like with javadi) and sometimes it's not (like with langdon) and sometimes it's just really good for setting up character reveals (like with santos).
this show is kind of a masterclass on the perfect balance of showing and telling, and it knows exactly when to use one, the other, or neither. and somehow it works every time???? jesus christ I need the writers team to win everything during the upcoming awards season.
The strongest theme of The Pitt for me is how nothing is how the public expects it. You think you know how unhoused people look like? No, he can be a fourth year med student doing his best. CSA survivor with a best friend who committed suicide? she's the meanest R1 who is not letting injustice slide and gets so excited about every procedure. The addict and the woman going through a miscarriage are the most competent senior residents you've ever seen. The attending saving the day at the last minute is an amputee.
Noah Wyles and his team really said "Nothing in ER departments is how it's supposed to be from the 12-hour wait times to the lack of blood, but people going through what would be anybody else's worst day are the only thing keeping the american healthcare system together"
