Men and their obsession with "thi ek"
I am awfully sentimental. Of books, belongings, people, places. It matters very little how positive or negative the experience was. If it shared some meaningful time in my life, I'll have trouble letting go.

a few days ago I saw a video of this girl talking to a half Korean guy on omegle and he was criticizing Koreans for being racist and the girl replies with "no that's not the case Korea is a good country" miss ma'am have you visited that country? do you know what it feels like to live there? No? But you have watched some shows and you like bts so you have made this fairytale image of that country and you refuse to believe the reality.
South Koreans are racist. The beauty standards are harmful for the whole society and the fans need to grow up and understand that. Most of you don't even like the music you just love the visuals they are selling you! YOU ALL ARE WALKING A VERY THIN LINE BETWEEN APPRECIATING AND FETISHIZING and don't even give me that "they'll grow up and learn, let people enjoy whatever they like, they are teenagers" no I won't let it be. I got to know about bts when I was 13 (I am almost 20 now) through a friend, it was before bts was so popular and even then I knew how toxic the beauty standards were in South Korea, I knew the idols weren't the reality, so should all of you.
"It's just music it's harmless" no it's not just music and the music isn't even the problem it's the artificial natural beauty they are selling, my 11 yr old cousin came up to me and said "look didi Lisa is so pretty and it's all natural why don't I have skin like her?" and I had to tell her and explain with proof how much work most of these idols have got done. they are not even treated as artists or even humans, THEY ARE TREATED AS PRODUCTS with shelf life - not allowed to eat, not allowed to date or say anything that might make them look less than perfect
Most of the k-pop idols are starving themselves, so many of them pass out at the end of the shows and still I see videos on YouTube like "trying the k-pop idol diet" "k-pop idol workout" "how to get korean glass skin" Like!?!? How stupid are these people? Do they not know the impact it can have on impressionable kids?
loving my friends online isn’t enough i need a plane ticket
sex is cool but have you ever been good enough
At 40, Franz Kafka (1883-1924), who never married and had no children, walked through the park in Berlin when he met a girl who was crying because she had lost her favourite doll. She and Kafka searched for the doll unsuccessfully. Kafka told her to meet him there the next day and they would come back to look for her.
The next day, when they had not yet found the doll, Kafka gave the girl a letter "written" by the doll saying "please don't cry. I took a trip to see the world. I will write to you about my adventures."
Thus began a story which continued until the end of Kafka's life.
During their meetings, Kafka read the letters of the doll carefully written with adventures and conversations that the girl found adorable.
Finally, Kafka brought back the doll (he bought one) that had returned. “It doesn't look like my doll at all," said the girl.
Kafka handed her another letter in which the doll wrote: "my travels have changed me." the little girl hugged the new doll and brought her happy home.
A year later Kafka died. Many years later, the now-adult girl found a letter inside the doll. In the tiny letter signed by Kafka it was written:
"Everything you love will probably be lost, but in the end, love will return in another way."
marrying the man i (will) love is not enough, I need to read his mind.
it is the law of the universe that you cannot have two consecutive days of a good relationship with your mother
