Using a qualitative approach with a critical paradigm, the research employs Sara Mills' critical discourse analysis to understand how language and text structure create representations of women in the drama. The analysis aims to unveil how radical feminist values are reflected in dialogues, actions, and character relationships in the drama. The findings of the study suggest that the drama "Love to Hate You" provides a complex and nuanced representation of radical feminism. On the one hand, the drama portrays the protagonist, Yeo Mi Ran, as a strong and independent woman who resists patriarchal norms.
