Whale couple Filipino memes
Fun and witty Filipino memes about the Whale Couple from Extraordinary Attorney Woo.
The Filipino people are known for finding laughter out of painful stories and experiences. Filipinos do not tone down or dismiss a painful or sad story but it is in their culture to uplift each other and to smile despite what one is going through. What happens when this culture encounters a painful and sad Korean drama story?
The Philippines is one of the first overseas country where Korean dramas became popular. Not counting the 1990s Korean dramas, Il Mare (시월애) (2000), My Sassy Girl (엽기적인 그녀) (2001), Winter Sonata (겨울연가) (2002), Jewel in the Palace (대장금) (2003), Stairway to Heaven (천국의 계단) (2003), were very popular in the archipelago nation of more than 100 million citizens. Korean dramas were so popular that some titles were locally adapted and it dethroned Latin American dramas off the airwaves.
It is no surprise that the Filipino culture is reflected in Korean drama memes. One such example is the break up of Woo Young Woo (우영우) and Lee Joon Ho (이준호) in Extraordinary Attorney Woo (이상한 변호사 우영우) (2022). The break up in the series was felt by many fans of the Whale Couple, many fans were able to relate to it when they too once experienced it.
This led to various cool memes about the Whale Couple. Check out a select few below!
