Episode description

We begin in Thailand where a law legalising same-sex marriage has taken effect. Thousands marked the occasion by formally registering their unions on the first day. We also speak to a father who took his employer to court over his right to paternity leave. Glen Wood explains his decade-long fight for a better workplace for parents in Japan. Finally, we meet the creator of Young-hee, the killer doll in “Squid Game.” Production designer Chae Kyoung-Sun said the giant robot was inspired by her own daughter.
