We all have a hunger.
HUNGER - Florence + the Machine (2018) dir. AJ Rojas
me at family gatherings
#no guys you don’t understand #this is super important #mental health in korea is literally awful #you can lose your job because you’re being treated for depression #the fact that this big name star is opening up about it is huuuge #so thank you gong yoo
the screenshots here are from near the end of the interview, which i think makes it even worse, because the interviewer listened to everything he’d said and still didn’t treat it very seriously. there are other parts where she seems very smart and intuitive, but then other times he’d say something like “i hate myself to death and feel like i’m an empty shell” and she’d just laugh and move on while i’m just like !!!
i was really impressed by how open he is about it though, even the “ugly” symptoms that aren’t really talked about normally — like how he said he used to lock himself in his apartment alone and drink and “bang on the walls” because he didn’t know how else to cope with all the pain he was in, and he even mentions hurting himself and talks about scars and refers to himself as a “masochist” and says a coworker once referred to him as “someone constantly trying to hurt himself.” the fact that he was able to talk about all this so openly, despite the reaction he got, was so impressive and amazing to me
it’s really heartbreaking though because he’s obviously never had the support he needs — at one point he mentions that the first person he ever opened up to about all the pain he was in (back in his mid-20s, when he says it was much worse) was a director who was considering hiring him, and he later found out that that director had told people she thought “someone like that” would be “too difficult” to work with, and it caused this rumor/pre-conceived notion about him to spread that affected the way his coworkers treated him. now that he’s famous and has had other work he’s literally known for how charming and nice he is to everyone, but at that point his coworkers all thought he was moody, pretentious, and rude and always avoided him on set because of this, all because he opened up about his severe depression to the wrong person
#reblogging this version because honestly like it’s so fucked up #I always forget that I’m very privileged to be able to receive the help that I have gotten and still get as a person with depression #and even famous people; people with so many resources do not get better or even the same treatment I’ve gotten #and that truly sucks #especially in a country where mental health discussions are so taboo #South Korea has gotten better with it over the years through media awareness but it’s nowhere near where it should be #and Gong Yoo opening up about it including the nastier parts of depression is so brave #and I just wanna say I commend him for it #because to get on tv in front of so many people and KNOW you’ll most likely not be taken seriously is so courageous #especially when your career revolves around how people perceive you #he’s practically sacrificing his job to bring awareness and this is why I truly whole heartedly love this man
speakng of raising awareness: the movie he’s being interviewed for here is “silenced”, a film he initiated production of. it’s based on real events that happened at a school for deaf children, where kids were sexually abused for years by their teachers. of the six rapists, two received prison sentences (and were out within a year), while the others were freed immediately because the statute of limitations had expired - and all were reinstated at the school
gong yoo read about this a few years later and said to himself “what can i as an actor do to help,” and he made a movie about it. millions of people saw it and there was mass public outrage, and because of this movie the case was reopened, the school was shut down, the rapists got much harsher punishments, and a law named after the movie was passed that abolished the statute of limitations for all sex crimes against minors and disabled people
when they were making the movie, gong yoo was convinced by the director he’d found to star as a teacher who tries to help the victims, but at first he was hesitant (because before this he’d only been in romcoms and he thought he lacked the acting ability to pull off the emotional depth required for this subject) but he eventually agreed because he wanted to use his fame to bring attention to the events
like… i have nothing but admiration for this guy. gong yoo is incredible and i want the world to know
I hope his courage gives strength to other Koreans who are suffering from the same burden.

On Aubrey So and Depression...
So, okay, I was blocked from posting all things on Facebook for 3 days (and currently less than 12 hours to be lifted) so I decided to post these kind of things I saw on Facebook.
Earlier, I checked my FB news feed to find something worthy, I stumbled upon with this post that one of the Filipino local artists took her own life due to depression.
It reminds me of… well I’m going to share my backstory anyway.
When I was 3 years old, I was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. I dunno about my childhood but yeah. I got my temper tantrums anyway. I cannot recall it. I feel so anxious about the disorder I have and let’s admit that they have no cure to that. In short, this will stuck to your head forever.
2009, after I passed with PEPT, I was transferred to the regular school from the SPED center. Despite of most of the people accepting me with open arms, some of them they bullied me and making fun of me about my condition. They always derogatorily labelled me as “Abno”, “May toyo”, “Abnormal”, “Monggoloid”, “Aswang” and all things that makes me offensive.
2012, bullying gone worse. Let’s say, they want me to be friends but deep inside they want me to use my kindness just for the heck of it like extorting money, they want me to do “good things” for them. And worse, they back stabbed me. If I can’t do, they will teasing me and spreading harsh word to me and even worse, the whole Grade 5 students (except the higher section) bullied me, they gave me deep emotional scars. So, I really don’t tell to my mom about that, instead, I pretended that I’m okay. But deep inside, I’m not. Due to that event, I was diagnosed with severe depression. Because of this, I skipped classed, I lost my enthusiasm to learn, I cried everytime I sleep and I want to end up my life by plunging in to the water, hanging myself up on the tree and I almost jumping from the building. All of my attempts was failed.
Years passed, with my mom, my friends, my teachers, colleagues, and even the people loved me and trusted me, I learned myself how to back up from the downward spiral–inch-by-inch.
After I backed up, I got so much blessings and achievements in life after I won at the Technolympics for the Graphic Design category. I attended to the events particularly PATCH Cuts for a Cause and Hallyu Art Fair, I met new people who has a same love for arts and KPOP (even though, I’m still an introvert until now) and I got freelance projects.
Despite all the blessings and achievements, I still got emotional scars from the past, I triggered sometimes to the things reminded me to my past, I made shitons of unintentional mistakes to them which they didn’t gave me another chance to fix and I still got sadness from the rejection of the girl that I loved the most and sometimes I got sick from school works.
I will ask you a question, do you think that depression is a joke?
Well, if depression is a joke, why Linkin Park’s Chester Bennington and SHINee’s Jonghyun took their own lives from the sea of sadness?
This is not a joke anyway.
Depression is a serious kind of disorder.
Most of the people seeking help and love from their friends and loved one. But most of the people said “ang oa mo naman”, “nag-iinarte ka nanaman” et. al. You guys didn’t understand about our serious condition.
Depression is not our choice anyway. But depression chose us because we exist in a cruel society.
We must admit, we are living in a cruel world but we want to find joy and love.
I’m posting this not because I’m an advocate for that but I want to reach out because I experienced that.
All rants, memes and shitposts aside, I just want to reach out and give light to the people who lived in darkness and in pain.
If you’re still struggling yet surviving, just keep going and keep fighting. Strive yourself to find your happiness and love.
And if you want to talk, approach me in the events or online and…
Let’s talk and…
Keep going;
It’s our memories that we constantly run from. The painful reminder of what the present has become, how different everything is, and how wonderful everything used to be.

You just do it. You force yourself to get up. You force yourself to put one foot before the other, and God damn it, you refuse to let it get to you. You fight. You cry. You curse. Then you go about the business of living. That’s how I’ve done it. There’s no other way.
