I am up to episode 16 of this. It is very good. I urge folks to watch and learn.
Basic plot is low level city employee winds up as mayor after being badly used by various corrupt city officials. They taught her hardball, and she was a very good student.
Right now our good mayor has a hard choice to make. Most of the city funds come from grants from the government in Seoul and the provincial level. Big connected politician has a deal with an industrial conglomerate to put a NIMBY factory in her town, which is in a rural and depressed area. The provincial funding has been turned off until she agrees to allow the NIMBY factory in her town. It will be interesting to see how she handles this, as she has turned all the battles to her advantage so far.
