The WONDERfools on Netflix gives Y2K-era Korea superpowers it never asked for

A coastal Korean city named Haeseong wakes up one morning to find that some of its most ordinary citizens can suddenly do things they were never asked to do. A short-tempered young woman who runs her grandmother’s restaurant can move objects she should not be able to move. A civil servant from Seoul has been hiding a telekinetic ability he never wanted. A pushover from City Hall and his most chronic complainer are about to become the city’s reluctant first line of defence against something none of them understands. The WONDERfools is a Korean superhero comedy in the way Extraordinary Attorney Woo was a courtroom procedural — that is, the genre is the delivery mechanism for something else.
