Sounds about Asian. Just kidding, could be in about any culture.
Stuff like this filial piety shit is common unfortunately. I’m so sorry about your situation. Same here. It’s so hard to let go, and try to go no contact. It is definitely ingrained in our head to be loyal to parents. And it’s okay to be loyal to parents, but not when they’re toxic.
I know ppl hate this plot but its so relatable to me as someone who has a complex relationship with my mum, she didn't abandoned me physically but emotionally and I get such complex feelings towards her, i love her so much but I hate her so much too, someday I want to go no contact, some days I can't live without her. I also think a part of it is my culture and the massive guilt I'll feel if I abandoned my mum, I've been in therapy for over 10 yrs and I haven't even come close to letting go of the resentment I have for my mum.
