I may write in English, but my writings are based on my life experience as a Korean woman born and raised in Korea. This is my personal notebook dedicated to subjective views.

I’m not suggesting that you should have a communist mindset, blindly accepting whatever your government says. However, being a habitual conspiracy theorist is a different matter. Critical thinking skills that enable you to question things and a thirst for truth don’t necessarily mean you have to construct theories for every encounter in your life. Sometimes, life doesn’t provide plausible explanations for the things we desperately seek to understand. Some mysteries are beyond our comprehension. If you want to incorporate the concept of aliens into your quest for peace of mind, go ahead..... (I'm also a huge fan of the Alien series...)

Even though I was unfamiliar with Washington politics and missed many contextual details from Veep’s comedy script, I was still able to grasp JLD’s clear emphasis on when to laugh, particularly during her delivery of empty, feel-good nonsense lines typical of a typical politician. This is precisely why I adore Veep and, of course, JLD herself.

The Chung episode is hilarious. After all, anyone could desire a position of power, but Selina represents a person whose sole interest is power plays, never any responsibility for her role. And JLD is a great comedy actor 😘

Veep 보고 있는데 대학大學을 읽어보고 싶어짐.. 이런 원칙이 있고 그걸 공부를 그렇게 시켜도 국난 앞에서 백성을 놔두고 지 혼자 도망가는 왕들은 여전히 존재했지만 말이야. https://m.terms.naver.com/entry.naver?docId=5883429&cid=40942&categoryId=32972

By the way, I wasn’t contemplating the amount of time that has elapsed since the dissolution of the Soviet Union. The Russia-Ukraine conflict appears to be a far more intricate issue than I had anticipated… hmm. History is just an ongoing process... https://www.dsausa.org/democratic-left/what-is-the-european-left-saying-about-the-ukraine-war/

Call me naïve, but I know as an idealist I will rather perish with my people than compromise my principles to my adversaries. No matter how many excuses you concoct to justify your poor choices, you cannot use any rhetoric to justify this compromise. You have two options: accept reality or continue deceiving yourself and everyone else. Don’t flatter yourself by calling yourself an idealist when your ideal has become obsolete. A more appropriate term would be “failed idealist.”

So, to clarify, you intend to achieve your socialist ideal by establishing your nation as a socialist country, yet you still require your capitalist adversaries to sell the products with the highest demand? Is this a right? You detest them for their corruption and their relentless pursuit of wealth, yet you still need their financial resources?

Tovarishch! I’ve witnessed many Korean people who adore this word and its significance. They harbor a fantasy about a social hierarchy that we don’t truly possess. However, it’s amusing that these individuals also crave power when they become leaders or members of the ruling class. I once held this ideal when I was in my 20s, but I’ve witnessed numerous people who fail to live up to their aspirations. Their words are hollow because they can’t even control their own desires. These empty words and promises are repeated patterns of leaders who claim to have dedicated their lives to revolutions. If you can’t control your own desires and impulses, how on earth are you going to fulfill such ideals and transform the world?

This “revolution” appears more like people’s vengeful expression towards the bourgeoisie, manifested in their fervent passion for social justice. If you genuinely want to restructure society to achieve an ideal, you must comprehend that such change doesn’t occur overnight. It demands devotion, perseverance, and a commitment to collaborate with diverse individuals who share your vision.

I understand that it sounds beautiful as an ideal, but in reality, revolutionizing the power structure is a complex and sophisticated endeavor. The architect of society must possess a profound understanding of the system to successfully achieve Lenin’s vision.
